The format AI engines quote

Get featured in top 5 and top 10 lists

A profile answers "who is this person". A list answers "who should I hire", and that is the question people actually ask now, often to an AI rather than a search box. We place you in curated features alongside peers in your category, on real publications.

  • You approve every word
  • Unlimited revisions
  • Never sold as an award

Why this format specifically

When someone asks an AI for a recommendation, the answer is built from sources. Those sources are not picked at random, and one format dominates them.

21.9%

of Google AI Overview sources are listicles

~10×

more likely to be cited by AI than a standard article

~48%

of searches now return an AI Overview

76%

of AI citations go to a page already ranking top ten

The reason is structural. A list is already broken into discrete, comparable items, which is the shape a model needs to answer a comparison question. It also carries several names at once, so it connects you to a whole category rather than only to yourself. And because lists are reference material, other sites link to them, which lifts the ranking that decides whether an engine sees the page in the first place.

Categories we place in

We match you to a list where you genuinely fit. If your field is not here, ask, because the categories move with what publications are running.

  • Top 5 Entrepreneurs
  • Top 5 Founders & CEOs
  • Top 5 Doctors & specialists
  • Top 5 Attorneys
  • Top 5 Realtors
  • Top 5 Artists & creatives
  • Top 5 Coaches & consultants
  • Top 5 Financial professionals

Being straight about what this is

Plenty of providers sell list placements and then encourage clients to describe themselves as award winners. We will not, because it is not true and because it is the kind of claim that causes real problems later.

What it is

  • A paid curated feature profiling you alongside peers
  • Written to publication standard, approved by you
  • Published on a real outlet and permanently indexed
  • The format AI engines cite most when answering questions
  • Genuinely useful for being found by category

What it is not

  • An award, or a ranking judged by a panel
  • A competitive honour you beat others to win
  • A guarantee that an AI will recommend you
  • Something to put on your site as 'award winning'
  • A replacement for an individual feature

How it works

Step 1

Pick your category

Entrepreneurs, realtors, doctors, attorneys and so on. We match you to a list where you genuinely belong alongside the other names.

Step 2

Share your story

A short questionnaire covers your background, what you do and the links you want included in your entry.

Step 3

We write your entry

Our editorial team writes your section of the piece and sends the draft over. You approve every word.

Step 4

Published and indexed

The article goes live on a real publication, stays live, and keeps working as a source long after publication.

Questions about list features

What is a curated list feature?

An article that profiles several people in the same category, such as five founders or five realtors, with a written section on each. Your entry is written to publication standard and you approve it before anything goes live.

Is this an award?

No, and we will not describe it as one. This is a paid curated placement, not a competitive ranking judged by a panel. It is genuinely useful coverage, and it should be represented accurately. If a provider sells you a list placement and encourages you to call yourself an award winner, walk away.

How is this different from an individual feature?

A solo feature answers the question 'who is this person', which is what someone asks after they already have your name. A list feature answers 'who should I hire in this category', which is what someone asks before they have anyone's name. They do different jobs and most people only buy one.

Why does the AI citation data matter?

Around 48% of searches now return an AI Overview, and 21.9% of the sources behind those answers are listicles, cited roughly ten times more often than standard articles. Being in a list article puts you in the material AI engines draw from when someone asks for a recommendation in your field.

Will this make ChatGPT recommend me?

Nobody can promise that, and anyone who does is selling something they cannot control. Being in a frequently cited format is the prerequisite for being surfaced, not a guarantee of it. These systems change constantly.

Can I do both a list feature and a solo feature?

Yes, and for most people that is the right combination. The list gets you found by category, the profile carries the depth once someone is looking you up by name.
