    \n
  1. Prompt tracking (PT)<\/strong> is a valuable extension to traditional SEO<\/strong> in B2B marketing. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. It measures brand visibility<\/strong> and context in AI systems<\/strong> (e.g., ChatGPT). <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Prompt tracking is necessary because AI systems answer context-based questions<\/strong> that traditional keyword tools do not capture. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Important KPIs<\/strong> in prompt tracking include the Brand Mention Rate<\/strong>, citation frequency, Share of Voice<\/strong>, and sentiment. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Start prompt tracking through topic analysis<\/strong>, prompt testing, and use of AI monitoring tools<\/strong>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n

    For a long time<\/strong>, digital presence<\/strong> meant primarily one thing: good rankings on Google<\/strong>. Those who ranked on page one gained attention, clicks, and inquiries\u2014and this could be measured well using traditional SEO tools<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

    Today, visibility has shifted<\/strong>. More and more people and B2B decision-makers<\/strong> are asking their questions directly to AI systems<\/strong>, and these systems decide which providers they mention<\/strong>. However, the measurability<\/strong> of this lies outside traditional SEO tools<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

    The solution? Prompt tracking<\/strong>. In this article, we reveal how you can measure visibility in AI systems<\/strong> and which KPIs<\/strong> you should not lose sight of. To help you get started in practice right away, we have created a clear guide<\/strong> for you. <\/p>\n\n

    Why Are Traditional SEO Tools Alone No Longer Sufficient for Tracking Visibility?<\/h2>\n\n

    Traditional SEO platforms<\/strong> like Google Keyword Planner or Search Console are based on search queries<\/a> that users perform on Google. They analyze rankings, keywords, and clicks<\/strong> in Google search\u2014however, they do not show whether and how your brand appears in AI-generated answers<\/strong>. In the current AI era<\/strong>, you must therefore expand these tools to gain a true overview of your visibility<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

    More and more people are now making search queries to an AI chat<\/strong> instead of a search engine. According to a representative survey by Bitkom<\/strong>, approximately 50% of respondents<\/strong><\/a> use AI at least occasionally for search queries<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

    In the B2B environment<\/strong>, AI plays an even more important role. A Forrester study<\/strong> found that 89% of B2B buyers use AI in the decision-making process<\/strong><\/a>. What does this mean for you? If you do not capture visibility in AI systems<\/strong>, you only have a distorted view<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

    AI Visibility: Measuring Visibility on ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, and More Through Prompt Tracking<\/h2>\n\n

    Traditional SEO tools<\/strong> therefore no longer work<\/strong> once users search for answers via ChatGPT, AI Overview, Perplexity<\/strong>, or other Large Language Models (LLMs)<\/a><\/strong>. But how can you measure whether and what an AI<\/strong> writes about your company? This is where prompt tracking<\/strong> comes into play. <\/p>\n\n

    What is Prompt-Tracking?<\/h3>\n\n

    Prompt tracking<\/strong> describes the systematic analysis and monitoring<\/strong> of inputs (prompts<\/strong>) that users enter into AI systems like ChatGPT<\/a>\u2014and how often the AI<\/strong> mentions a specific brand or product<\/strong>. The goal is to find out: <\/p>\n\n
