ROI Logic

Agencies charge a premium because the audit requires strategic judgment (identifying AI-citable gaps) and content retooling that tools alone cannot automate. The deliverable directly addresses the 89% of brands invisible in AI answers, making it a high-value upsell from standard SEO audits. Ongoing retainer revenue comes from monthly content updates and quarterly re-audits as AI models evolve.

Deliverables
  • AI visibility audit report with before/after scores for 10-20 pages
  • Prioritized list of technical SEO fixes and content gaps
  • 5 rewritten pages and 3 new pages optimized for AI citability
  • 30-day rank and AI visibility monitoring dashboard
  • Client-facing presentation with retainer proposal
Definition of Done

Client approves final report and at least 5 retooled pages are live and indexed, with documented improvement in AI answer appearance for at least 3 target queries.
