There's no single best site, since it depends on your destination and whether you want the lowest price or the best deal overall. The major options are: 1. Booking.com: Wide selection and frequent discounts, with free cancellation on many rooms. 2. Expedia: Good for bundling flights and hotels, which can lower the total cost. 3. Hotels.com: Its loyalty program offers a free night after a set number of stays. 4. Google Hotels: A useful comparison tool that shows prices across many sites at once. 5. Kayak or Trivago: Metasearch engines that compare prices from multiple booking sites. For the cheapest rate, compare prices on Google Hotels or Kayak first, then check the hotel's own website, which sometimes offers lower prices for booking direct.
Answer 2 not named
There's no single best site, but these are the most useful for finding cheap hotels: 1. Booking.com: Large selection and good filters for price, and it often has free cancellation options. 2. Hotels.com: Frequent discounts, and you earn rewards nights after enough stays. 3. Kayak: Compares prices across many booking sites at once, which helps you spot the lowest rate. 4. Google Hotels: A fast way to compare prices across sites and see date-based price trends. 5. Hotwire: Lower prices in exchange for less control, since some bookings are "opaque" until you pay. For the cheapest option, check Google Hotels or Kayak first, then compare the final price on the hotel's own site, since it sometimes beats third-party rates.

Answer 1 not named
For comparing cheap hotels, Google Hotels is a good place to start: it compares prices across booking sites and shows a map. Before booking, check the hotel’s own website too—sometimes it’s cheaper, and cancellation terms may differ.
Answer 2 not named
There isn’t one best site for every trip. Google Hotels is a good place to compare prices across booking sites, then check the hotel’s own website too—booking directly can sometimes be cheaper or offer better cancellation terms. Compare the total price, including taxes and fees, and review the cancellation policy before booking.
Answer 3 not named
For comparing cheap hotels, Google Hotels is a good place to start: it lets you compare prices across booking sites and filter by budget and location. Check the hotel’s own website too—sometimes it’s cheaper or offers better cancellation terms.

The split is the point: the same question named Expedia in 3 of 3 Gemini answers and 0 of 3 ChatGPT answers. A single answer from a single model would have told you only one of those stories.

How the check works

01Ask

Your question, word for word

Type the question a customer asks before they know your name. It goes to every model exactly as you wrote it, with no rewording and nothing added that names you.

02Repeat

Three answers from each model

Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini each answer three times, live. One answer is a coin flip; three show whether a mention is steady or luck.

03Read

Every answer, in full

You get whether you were named, where in the list, who was named instead — and all of the answers themselves, with your name highlighted, so you can check the reading.

The mention matcher is the one behind the public leaderboards; the methodology explains what it counts and what it deliberately does not.

One question is one data point

It tells you whether the models know you for that question, today. It cannot tell you which of the other questions buyers ask you lose, whether the result holds next week, or what to change. That is what the paid measurement is for.

Questions about the checker

Is the AI visibility checker really free?

Yes. One check per visitor every 30 days, with no signup, no card and no email address. It exists so you can see the measurement working on your own question before deciding whether the full version is worth paying for.

Which AI models does it ask?

Claude (Claude Haiku 5.5), ChatGPT (GPT-6 Luna) and Gemini (Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite), through each provider's API with no web search — the same models, instructions and answer length as the weekly public index, so a checker answer and an index answer are produced the same way.

Is this what I would see in the ChatGPT app?

Not exactly. The consumer apps can use larger models, your chat history and live web search. The checker asks what each model knows about your category without looking anything up, which is the stable baseline the public index measures week to week.

Why is each model asked three times?

Because the answers change. The same question to the same model names different businesses on different runs, so one answer is closer to a coin flip than a finding. Three answers show whether a mention is steady or luck; the full audit asks each of 24 questions four times.

Why can my question not include my business name?

A question that names you is answered with your name: it guarantees a mention and measures nothing. Ask the way a customer asks before they have heard of you — “which accounting software should a freelancer use?”, not “is Northwind any good?”.

What counts as being named?

Your business name, its common variants (with or without “Inc”, “The” or punctuation) or your website's domain. A product name only counts if you enter it as the business: if the models recommend your product and not your company, run the check on the product name.

What happens to what I type?

The question is sent to the model providers to get the answers. The business name, website, question and answers are stored with the result so your link keeps working, with your IP address kept only as a one-way hash to enforce one check per visitor. Results are not indexed by search engines and are deleted after twelve months, or sooner if you ask.
