Is ChatGPT really deciding who gets recommended, or is it just Googling for your customers? In this episode, Tyler Henn, founder of Hen House Digital Growth Studio, explains how to get ChatGPT to recommend your business, and why the “AI is all-powerful” story is costing small firms time and money.

If you’re a lawyer, solo practitioner, accountant, therapist or other professional service provider, the firm that gets recommended may not be the one posting the most. Your competitor could be getting picked right now while you wait for a magic fix.

Inside this conversation:

• Why ChatGPT works like a “glorified Googler” through query fan-out, and what that means for being found
• The Google Business Profile steps most owners skip, including why answering “no” beats leaving a question blank
• Review velocity: why a steady stream of recent reviews can beat a bigger pile of old ones, and how to ask for reviews that actually describe your work
• How a brand-new company reached the top six of about 3,300 competitors by owning a niche that nobody else was talking about
• Why podcasts, speaking and third-party mentions are credibility signals AI can find
• Why “AI will post everything for you” is a trap, and the real hack: be excellent, stay consistent, and make it right when you mess up

AI search is changing how potential clients discover attorneys and professional service providers. In this episode, Andrew Colsky talks with Adrian Nikolov of Haide Digital about how SEO, GEO, AEO, entity optimization, and AI automation are changing the way businesses build online authority.

With nearly 18 years of experience in SEO and digital marketing, Adrian explains why traditional keyword-focused SEO is no longer enough and why consistency, credibility, topical authority, and strong brand signals matter in AI-driven search.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why keyword-only SEO is losing ground to conversational AI search

• How ChatGPT and other AI models evaluate authority and trust

• What query fan-out and consensus mean for AI search visibility

• What an entity map is and why it matters for law firms

• Why your website remains the foundation of your online authority

• How consistent business information strengthens trust signals

• Why generic AI-generated content can hurt your visibility

• How to use AI as a workflow tool without sacrificing quality

• The difference between SEO, GEO, and AEO

• How law firms can build stronger visibility across Google and AI search

For attorneys and law firms, the takeaway is clear: being found by AI requires more than ranking for keywords. Your firm needs a consistent, credible, and connected online presence that clearly demonstrates who you are, what you do, and why you should be trusted.

If you looking for law firm SEO, AI search for lawyers, GEO, AEO, digital marketing for law firms, attorney marketing, or strategies to get your firm recommended by AI, this episode provides a practical look at where search is heading.
