AI visibility case studies
Real AI visibility and AI SEO results: Google AI Overview citations, AI share of voice, AI-referred traffic and #1 rankings in Canada, the US and Australia.
What results can AI visibility work deliver?
These eight case studies come from my in-house work for a Canadian cloud service provider from 2024 to 2026, across Canada, the US and Australia. The client isn't named, and every number comes from Google Analytics 4 or Semrush.
They show the method I use with every client: find the questions buyers ask, give each page one clear job, write answers AI can cite, and measure what moves.
