Challenge: Measuring Visibility in an AI-First Search Era
As search evolved beyond traditional blue links, Dun & Bradstreet faced a new visibility challenge.
While the website had a strong SEO foundation, there was limited clarity on how the brand appeared across:
- Google AI Overviews
- LLM-powered discovery platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity
Key questions remained unanswered:
- Which keywords triggered AI Overviews?
- Was Dun & Bradstreet being cited in AI-generated answers?
- How much traffic was actually coming from LLM platforms?
- How could AI visibility be validated with confidence?
Traditional SEO tools were not designed to answer these AI-specific questions.
Objective: Expand tracking beyond rankings to measure AI discoverability.
Key Objectives
- Increase keyword presence and share within Google AI Overviews
- Measure and grow traffic originating from LLM platforms
- Improve brand mention frequency inside AI-generated responses
- Gain reliable, verifiable insights into AI search performance
