Search Visibility Optimization (SVO) Services by MKG Marketing
Be the Answer. Everywhere they ask.
Most brands are invisible in AI search. Our specialists use SVO (Search Visibility Optimization) to audit your visibility, build your authority, and execute the strategy your team doesn't have time for — so your brand is cited by LLMs, featured in AI Overviews, and ranked in Google.
Search Visibility Optimization (SVO) is a unified framework integrating SEO, AEO, and GEO. It moves your brand from a “ranked link” to a “preferred citation,” maximizing visibility whether a user is scrolling Google or prompting an AI.
I was impressed by [MKG Marketing's] experience, and that they listened to my business needs. Unlike their competitors, MKG Marketing didn't stick to a cookie-cutter system. Instead, they created a custom solution that would fit our needs and they stuck to a designated timeline.

The Gap
The Ranking vs. Revenue Gap is Widening.
Traditional SEO tools track keywords, but they don't track LLM Citations. If ChatGPT or Perplexity isn't recommending you, you're losing the zero-click buyer.
The Three Pillars of SVO
AI Engine Optimization
Winning the "Answer Box." Structuring your content so AI Overviews and Featured Snippets pull from your brand first.
Generative Engine Optimization
Increasing your citation share in LLMs like Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity so they recommend you by name.
Search Engine Optimization
Maintaining traditional dominance for high-intent traffic. The foundation that makes AEO and GEO possible.
The mkgOS Methodology

The Proof
From Invisible to Authoritative.
SVO is built on measurable outcomes, not promises. Here's what the framework delivers when strategy meets execution.
If you aren’t cited, you don’t exist.
Traditional SEO tools are blind to the "Zero-Click" buyer. With the full SEMRush Suite you'll have total transparency into how LLMs, Answer Engines, and Search Engines perceive your brand.
AI Citation Growth
AI Overview Inclusion
Organic Visibility
Case in point: Solidigm achieved +124% AI citation growth using the SVO framework. Cloudera saw a 3.2x increase in AI Overview inclusion rate, moving from sporadic mentions to consistent category-level visibility across LLM surfaces.
Stop guessing if AI search is citing your brand.
Traditional SEO tools are blind to the Zero-Click buyer. MKG Marketing uses SEMRush One to track your visibility across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. We don't just chase rankings; we secure the citations that drive revenue in the LLM era.

FAQ
Common Questions, Clear Answers.
No. Traditional SEO targets Google's index. SVO targets the LLM training sets and real-time retrieval windows used by AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini, in addition to traditional search. The methodology, content format, and measurement are fundamentally different.
Minimal. We act as your "AI Search Department," working alongside your existing GTM team. You'll need a point of contact for approvals and brand guidance, but our team handles strategy, content creation, technical implementation, and reporting.
Technical foundations typically show impact within 4-8 weeks. Content and authority signals compound over 3-6 months. AI citation metrics often improve faster than traditional rankings because LLMs update their knowledge more frequently. Our 6-month minimum ensures enough runway for meaningful, sustainable results.
Citation Share measures how often your brand is referenced by AI models when users prompt questions in your category. We use systematic prompt testing across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and other LLMs to track your brand's mention frequency versus competitors. This is reported monthly in your SVO Scorecard.
SVO works with any CMS or platform. Our technical team has experience with WordPress, Shopify, custom builds, headless architectures, and enterprise CMS platforms. The framework adapts to your existing infrastructure.
mkgOS is our proprietary data platform that powers the service. You don't log in and figure it out yourself. Our specialists use mkgOS to audit, track, and execute your SVO strategy, then deliver insights and results through your monthly Scorecard.
