Visibility Score
A Visibility Score is a composite metric combining factors like presence, position, and prominence to represent how visible a brand is across AI-generated responses.
Why Visibility Score Matters
- Raw mention counts can lie. If you're mentioned frequently but always last, that's not "winning." Visibility Score compresses multiple dimensions into one KPI that's easier to track over time.
- **What typically goes into a Visibility Score:**
- **Brand Presence** (how often you appear)
- **Brand Placement** (how early you appear)
- **Brand Position** (your rank among brands in the same response)
Key Factors
- Brand Presence across tracked prompts
- Placement position in AI responses
- Citation frequency
- Perception quality (how you're framed)
Action Steps
- Monitor your Visibility Score over time to identify trends
- Focus on improving weaker components (presence, placement, citations)
- Create content targeting prompts where you're currently absent
- Build third-party presence to improve overall visibility
