## Core measures

- Discovery visibility: whether neutral buyer answers mention the brand
- Prominence: lead recommendation, shortlist, incidental mention, or absence
- Competitor share of voice: target mentions compared with selected competitors
- Claimed-domain citation rate: answers citing the submitted domain
- Coverage: eligible grounded answers divided by planned answers

Keep these measures separate. One unexplained composite can hide missing answers, weak prominence, or a citation problem.

## Improvement loop

1. Remove crawl and rendering barriers.
2. Keep entity facts consistent across owned and third-party pages.
3. Publish direct, extractable answers to buyer questions.
4. Support claims with original evidence and relevant corroboration.
5. Rerun the identical question set and compare stored evidence.

## Important limitation

AI answers vary by provider, model, search source, locale, and time. No technical or content tactic guarantees a recommendation, citation, or ranking.
