Improve your results

A practical order of work to raise your Visibility score: fix what your report found, cover the prompts that miss you, earn citations on the sites AI trusts, and track the change.

A report tells you where AI names your brand and where it does not. This guide turns that into work, in the order that usually moves the number fastest.


1. Start with How to fix your results

Every report has a How to fix your results tab. Click Show me what to fix and Rank Prompt reads the whole report and returns the fixes as tasks: quick wins, the topics to cover, and what the pages AI cites instead of you do that yours do not.

  • The first time on a brand it is free; after that it costs 1 credit, and so does Regenerate. The button shows the cost before you click. On the Free plan the free first run is the short plan, the three fixes that matter most, and Regenerate writes the full one

  • The fixes arrive as Suggested tasks. Accept the ones you want onto your Tasks board and dismiss the rest

  • Source insights shows the pages AI cites instead of you, with What to copy: from each

  • Only owners and editors of the brand can run it

Tip: Work the tasks from the top. Each one says what to change and why, and the next report shows the effect.


2. Ask the agent

The agent has your reports, prompts, citations and competitors in front of it, and it reads the page you are on. Open it with Chat with agent on Home, the button in the bottom-right corner, or the keys G then A.

Ask in your own words, for example:

  • "Which prompts miss my brand, and which brands do those answers name instead?"

  • "Which competitor wins the most answers without me, and on which AI platform?"

  • "What should I write first to get named for my weakest category?"

  • "Which sites cite my competitors and not me?"

The more specific the request, the more useful the answer: name the category, the AI platform or the competitor you care about. On paid plans the agent can also write the article, run the audit or set up the schedule with you.

On Agency Plus, the agent in Agency mode works across all your brands at once.


3. Cover the prompts that miss you

When AI does not name you for a prompt, it is usually because nothing it trusts says you belong there.

Find the gaps

  1. Go to Visibility > Prompts and sort the Prompts tab by Visibility: the weakest prompts come first

  2. On the Responses tab, set Brand named to Misses your brand and read a few answers: look at the brands they name and the pages they cite

  3. On the Categories tab, look for categories with low visibility

  4. In a report, the By platform tab shows each prompt on each AI platform, so you can see whether a gap is on one platform or all of them

Close them

Gap

What to do

A whole topic misses you

Write a thorough article or landing page for it

Competitors are named, you are not

Improve your page with more depth, data and examples, or write a comparison

You are named on one AI platform, missed on another

Read that platform's answers and the pages it cites

Nobody cites your site

Earn mentions on the sites AI already cites (step 4)

Write content AI can cite

  • Content > Opportunities lists what to write next, ranked by what it can win you, including the prompts that miss you. Creating content from an opportunity opens the article panel already filled in

  • Content > Articles > Create: pick a prompt you are missing or a topic, a format (Comparative article, Ranked list, FAQ article and more), and click Run

Articles need the Starter plan and cost 10 credits each, 9 each in a plan of 5 or more and 8 from 20. See Content generation overview.


4. Earn citations on the sites AI trusts

AI answers lean on the pages they cite. A mention of your brand on those pages is one of the strongest ways to get named.

Find where to get mentioned

  1. Go to Sources > Citations and look at the top cited domains and the cited pages

  2. Filter by kind of source (reviews and directories, news, forums, Reddit and more) to find the ones you can act on

  3. Sources > Offsite mentions shows the third-party pages AI cites and whether they name you or your competitors

  4. Sources > Reddit, YouTube, LinkedIn and Forums show the posts behind the answers

Get featured

Kind of source

How to get on it

News and industry publications

Pitch guest articles, expert quotes or original data

Reviews and directories

Claim your profile and ask customers for reviews

Forums and Reddit

Answer the threads AI cites, in your own words, with Outreach > Community

Blogs and newsletters

Offer a review, a collaboration or a resource worth linking

Reach out

  1. Go to Outreach > Backlink outreach: it lists the pages AI cites

  2. Click Find contacts for the sites you want to pitch

  3. Send your pitch from Email Hub (Pro and up), or select pages on a report's Sources tab and click Create campaign

See Backlink outreach overview.


5. Learn from your competitors

If a competitor is named more often, its pages and mentions are doing something yours are not.

  1. Go to Visibility > Competitors and look at the Share of voice ranking and who Rose most

  2. Click a competitor to see the Platforms where it beats you, the prompts it wins without you, and the domains that cite it and not you

  3. Click Compare to write an article comparing you with it

  4. If a name is not really a rival, or two names are one company, fix it in Brand settings > Competitors (Manage competitors opens it), so every number counts the right businesses

Look at

What it tells you

Share of voice

Of all the times AI named you or a competitor, how often it was them

Prompts it wins without you

The topics where it owns the answer

Domains that cite it and not you

The sites to pitch next

Platforms where it beats you

Where to focus first

See Competitors analysis.


6. Track more of the right prompts

Your score only covers the prompts you ask. Widen them with care:

  • The Explorer pages find prompts and keywords to track: Your Google demand (your Search Console queries and the keywords Google shows you for), Research (a keyword, or a page URL for the prompts it answers) and What competitors win (the answers and Google keywords your competitors win without you). Track as prompt adds one to a Scheduled Report location

  • Visibility > Fan-outs shows the web searches the AI platforms ran behind your prompts; Track as prompt tracks one

  • Keep prompts in your buyers' words, one intent each


7. Track your progress

A single report is a snapshot, and AI answers vary from one run to the next. Track the same prompts over time to see a real trend.

  1. Go to Visibility > Scheduled Reports and create a schedule with the prompts that matter

  2. Add a location for each market you serve (country, language and city); each run leaves one report per location

  3. Follow Visibility > Trends for rank and visibility over time, across the Scheduled Reports and one-off reports you select

Trend

What to do

Rising

Your work is landing

Keep going and widen your prompts

Falling

Something changed: a competitor, a page, an AI platform

Open the answers you lost and the pages they cite

Flat

Nothing has moved AI yet

Pick a different lever: content, citations or technical fixes

See What is a Scheduled Report?.


8. Use your own data

Connect Google to see what AI sends you and what people already search:

  1. Go to Explorer > Website analytics

  2. Click Connect Google

  3. Allow Google Analytics and Search Console

Then Explorer > AI traffic shows the visits AI platforms send to your site, and Explorer > Your Google demand turns your queries into prompts and keywords to track. See Google Analytics connection.


9. Fix the technical basics

AI platforms can only cite pages they can read.

  1. Go to Explorer > Site health

  2. Add your key pages and run the audits (Starter and up)

  3. Open the Technical tab for each page

Check

Why it matters

robots.txt

AI crawlers, Google and Bing must be allowed in

AI crawlers

Shows which known AI bots can read your pages

Sitemap

Helps Google and Bing find every page

Schema

Structured data tells AI what a page is about; the Schema generator gives you ready-to-use JSON-LD
