SiteLiftDocsBrand Visibility Prompts
SiteLift allows you to configure up to 5 strategic prompts. We use these prompts to continually query META AIs (such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini) to monitor how often and how accurately your brand is recommended.
Why Prompts Matter
Unlike traditional SEO where you track keywords, AEO (AI Engine Optimization) requires tracking conversational prompts. We simulate user interactions to see if these models recommend your brand in their answers.
Note
Prompt Categories
When you create a prompt in the dashboard, you will assign it to a category. This helps our analytics group the data:
Discovery
How users find products in your niche.
Comparison
How you stack up against alternatives.
Problem Solving
When users ask for solutions.
Direct Brand
When users ask about you specifically.
Best Practices for Writing Prompts
✓Do: Keep it Conversational
Write prompts exactly how your target audience would ask an AI chatbot.
Example: "What is the best CRM software for a real estate agent with a small team?"
✕Don't: Use Keyword Stuffing
AI engines do not respond to lists of keywords like traditional search engines do.
Example: "best CRM real estate small team cheap"
Viewing the Results
SiteLift pings these models periodically using your defined prompts. You can view the results in the Brand Visibility tab of your project dashboard. The dashboard will show:
Mention Rate
How often your brand was included in the response across all checked AI engines.
Sentiment Score
The context in which your brand was mentioned (Positive, Neutral, Negative).
Competitor Mentions
Who else was recommended alongside you, helping you understand your competitive landscape in AI search.
