Google & AI Check

Google & AI Visibility Check: Are You Being Found?

Ten short questions show how easy your business is to find on Google, in local search and in answers from AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Gemini.

In brief

The Google & AI Check uses ten questions to assess how well your business can be found and recommended: Google Business Profile, consistent business details, reviews, answer pages, service pages, structured data, loading time, directories, up-to-date content and measurement. You receive a score from 0 to 100 and concrete tips. There is no guarantee of rankings.

1How well maintained is your Google Business Profile?

The profile determines your visibility in Google Maps and in local search.

2Are your name, address and phone number written identically everywhere (NAP)?

Differing business details leave search engines and AI systems unsure which one is correct.

3What is the state of your Google reviews?

Reviews build trust and are considered an important signal for local search.

4Does your website answer common customer questions (FAQ, advice pages)?

Clear answers to real questions are readily used as a source by Google and AI assistants.

5Does each of your services have its own page?

A separate page per service can match precisely the searches made for exactly that.

6Does your website use structured data (Schema.org)?

Structured data helps search engines and AI systems understand your information unambiguously.

7How quickly does your website load on mobile?

Most local searches happen on mobile, and slow pages lose visitors.

8Are you listed in relevant directories and industry portals (WKO, Herold etc.)?

Mentions and listings on trustworthy sites strengthen your credibility for search engines and AI.

9Do you regularly publish up-to-date content (blog, news)?

Fresh, helpful content shows that your business is active and covers additional search questions.

10Have you already checked whether AI assistants know your business?

More and more people ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google’s AI Mode for recommendations.

What does visibility on Google and in AI answers mean?

Customers today no longer search only with keywords. They ask Google in whole sentences, look at Google Maps or have ChatGPT and Gemini recommend providers. Businesses that are clearly described, unambiguously findable and credibly backed up are visible.

The classic part is called SEO (search engine optimisation), the new one GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), that is, preparing content for AI answers. The two overlap heavily: clear answers, clean data, good reviews and mentions on trustworthy sites. An overview is provided by the article GEO: Generative Engine Optimization.

What does the Google & AI Check examine, and what does it not?

The check asks about ten building blocks: Google Business Profile, consistent business details (NAP), reviews, answer pages and FAQ, service pages, structured data, loading time on mobile, directory listings, up-to-date content and monitoring of AI visibility.

The result is based on your self-assessment. It checks neither your actual rankings nor whether AI assistants actually mention you, because these answers change constantly. Nobody can guarantee particular rankings or mentions. The manual analysis by digtatur therefore goes one step further and looks specifically at your site and your profile.

What happens after the check?

Work through the tips for the weakest points one by one. The biggest progress usually comes from a complete Google profile, more reviews and separate pages with clear answers for each service.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about the Google & AI Check

How is the score calculated?

Each of the ten questions gives 2 points for the best answer, 1 point for the middle one and 0 points for the weakest. The total of at most 20 points is scaled up to 100 and assigned to one of four levels.

Can you be guaranteed a mention in AI answers?

No. AI assistants compile answers from many sources, and these change constantly. But you can improve your chances by being clearly described, unambiguously findable and credible through reviews and mentions.

What is the difference between SEO and GEO?

SEO improves findability in classic search results; GEO prepares content so that AI assistants understand it and readily use it as a source. In practice, the two overlap heavily.

Is the Google Business Profile really that important?

For businesses with a local customer base, usually yes. It determines whether you appear in Google Maps and in “near me” searches, and delivers reviews, opening hours and contact routes directly in the search results.

What happens in the manual analysis?

We look at your website, your Google profile, your listings and typical AI answers for your industry, and send you, within 2 working days, a personal evaluation with a concrete action plan. It is free and non-binding.

How quickly will I see results?

That depends on your starting position and the competition. Changes to the Google profile often take effect within weeks, while content and trust usually take several months. We cannot credibly commit to specific timeframes.
