Why does AI quote property portals and forums instead of our official website?
A 2026 study of AI answers about 128 Thai brands found: "Only 4% of what AI cites about Thai brands comes from the brands' own websites — the other 96% comes from sources they do not control." Third-party pages often state facts plainly and look independent; many official sites keep facts in images or brochures. The fix is a clear, dated, verifiable official source.
- Check your site without pictures: if price, location and completion date appear only in images or PDF brochures, AI may not pick them up.
- Many official sites exist in one language. Buyers asking in Chinese or Russian are more likely to get answers from pages in those languages.
- Undated claims read like advertising. Date your facts and link them to official records, such as the environmental approval and company registration.
- You cannot stop AI citing portals and forums, but you can correct their facts and give AI an official version to compare against.
- Tafei publishes a verified official profile for your project, cross-checked with Thai official records, without touching your own website.
We improve the chance of being cited by AI; we do not guarantee citations, leads or sales. Formal quotes are definitive.
