Get your WooCommerce store into ChatGPT Shopping & Google AI answers

Shoppers now ask ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Perplexity what to buy and where. Most small WooCommerce stores never get named — blocked AI crawlers, missing product data, no merchant feed. We find the exact gaps in 60 seconds and fix them at a fixed price.

  • Instant check, no sign-up
  • Fixed prices, no retainer lock-in
  • WooCommerce-only · EU-based · GDPR

Why your traffic is slipping

Buyers ask AI first. It answers with stores it can read.

AI assistants don’t browse like people. They pull structured product data, merchant feeds and clean, quotable pages. If your store doesn’t provide those, you simply don’t exist in the answer — no matter how good your products are.

The four things that keep small stores out of AI answers

  1. 1

    Incomplete product data

    No Product/Offer schema, missing GTIN/EAN codes, price or availability that AI can’t verify. The assistant skips products it can’t trust.

  2. 2

    No merchant feeds

    Google AI Mode, Copilot and Perplexity ground shopping answers in Merchant Center-style feeds. No feed, no listing.

  3. 3

    AI crawlers blocked

    Default hosting and Cloudflare settings often block GPTBot, PerplexityBot and Claude. Your store literally can’t be read.

  4. 4

    Pages that don’t answer

    Thin descriptions, no specs, no FAQs, no delivery details. AI cites pages that answer buyer questions plainly.

What we actually do

The unglamorous work that makes AI recommend you

No hype, no “rank #1 in ChatGPT” promises. We ground everything in fundamentals that also improve your Google rankings and conversion rate.

  • Product & Offer schema

    Valid, complete JSON-LD on every product: price, currency, availability, GTIN/EAN, brand, ratings, shipping and returns.

  • Merchant feeds

    Google Merchant Center, Microsoft Merchant Center and OpenAI product feed format — mapped, validated and refreshed automatically.

  • Crawler access

    robots.txt, Cloudflare/WAF and hosting rules that let GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot and Bingbot read your store.

  • Answer-ready product pages

    Rewritten descriptions with specs tables, delivery details and FAQs, in the words your buyers use when they ask AI.

  • Reviews & mentions

    Review schema, review-collection setup and a plan for third-party mentions AI engines use as trust signals.

  • Speed & technical SEO

    Core Web Vitals, canonical/hreflang, sitemaps and indexing — because AI search still starts with Google and Bing.

Packages & prices

Why Aivoma

Built for small EU stores, not enterprise budgets

  • WooCommerce-only

    We don’t do “all platforms”. We know the WooCommerce data model, the plugins (Rank Math, Yoast, Google for WooCommerce, feed plugins) and where they silently break AI readability.

  • Honest about what works

    AI checkout isn’t live in the EU yet; llms.txt isn’t read by Google. We tell you what actually moves the needle today and prepare you for what’s next.

  • Everything is measurable

    You get before/after AI answer screenshots, schema validation reports and traffic data. No vanity metrics.

  • One engineer, direct line

    You talk to the person doing the work — a WooCommerce and AI-search engineer, based in Estonia, replying within one working day.

FAQ

Straight answers to the questions store owners ask

Why doesn’t ChatGPT recommend my WooCommerce store?

Almost always one of four reasons: your robots.txt or Cloudflare blocks GPTBot and OAI-SearchBot, so ChatGPT cannot read the store; your product pages have no valid Product/Offer schema with price, availability and GTIN, so it cannot verify what you sell; you have no merchant feed; or your product pages are too thin to answer a buyer’s question. Our free check tests the first three in a minute.

How do I get my products into ChatGPT Shopping?

Three layers. First, let OpenAI read your store (allow OAI-SearchBot and GPTBot). Second, publish complete product data — Product schema on every page and an OpenAI-format product feed. Third, when the merchant programme opens in your country, register in the OpenAI merchant dashboard and connect the feed; Instant Checkout uses the Agentic Commerce Protocol, which WooCommerce supports via plugins. As of August 2026, ChatGPT Instant Checkout is live in the US and UK; EU merchants can already be recommended in answers and should have the feed ready.

What is “AI visibility” and how is it different from SEO?

AI visibility means your store and products get mentioned and linked when someone asks an AI assistant (ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, Copilot, Gemini) what to buy or where. It’s also called AI SEO, GEO (generative engine optimization) or AEO (answer engine optimization). It builds on classic SEO — indexing, speed, content — but adds machine-readable product data, merchant feeds and crawler access that AI engines rely on to recommend a store.

Can you guarantee my store will show up in ChatGPT?

No one can honestly guarantee that — AI answers are generated per question and change over time. What we guarantee is that every technical and content barrier is removed and validated, and that we measure your visibility before and after across a fixed set of buyer questions. Stores that are readable, complete and trusted are the ones that get recommended.

How long until I see results?

Crawler and feed changes are picked up within days to a few weeks. AI answer changes typically appear within 4–8 weeks after Setup, which is why we recommend at least three months of Monitoring to measure and reinforce results.

Do I need to change plugins or my theme?

Usually not. We work with your existing WooCommerce setup and common SEO plugins (Rank Math, Yoast, Google for WooCommerce, feed plugins). Where a plugin is misconfigured or produces invalid schema, we fix or replace it and document why.

Does this help my Google rankings and Google Shopping too?

Yes. Everything we do — valid Product schema, clean GTIN and price data, faster pages, better product content, Merchant Center feeds — is exactly what Google Search, Google Shopping and AI Overviews reward. You never trade classic SEO for AI visibility.

What do you need from me to start?

Your store URL and an email. For Setup we need WordPress admin access (we recommend a dedicated admin user), access to Google Search Console and Merchant Center if they exist, and 30 minutes of your time for a kick-off call.

What about llms.txt?

We add it because it’s harmless — but we won’t sell it to you as a lever. Google has stated it doesn’t use llms.txt, and studies show major AI crawlers rarely request it. Product schema, feeds and crawl access are what matter.
