✅ Keyword Rankings
✅ CTR & Impressions
✅ Bounce Rate & DA
✅ Backlinks & Conversions
🔹 New KPIs (LLM SEO)
🚀 Brand mentions in AI responses – How often AI cites you
🚀 AI citation count – When your content is referenced in AI outputs
🚀 Prompt-triggered visibility – Do you appear in AI answers to user prompts?
🚀 Machine-validated authority – Authority judged by AI crawlers, not links
🚀 Vector index presence rate – Your inclusion in AI knowledge bases
🚀 Sentiment in LLM outputs – How AI describes your brand
💡 Insight: Success is no longer just about ranking on Google.
It’s about being cited, referenced, and recommended by AI systems like ChatGPT, Gemini & Claude. Educational purpose and guide pov.
