Understand Where You Stand
Assessment-led services for brands that need clarity before committing to a programme of work.
A comprehensive view of your organic market position across multiple data points – built for boardrooms, investor decks, and strategic planning, not just SEO team dashboards.
Most SOV engagements start because someone in the business needs a clearer picture of where organic performance actually sits in the competitive landscape.
COMPETITIVE BLIND SPOT
You know competitors are gaining organic ground but you can’t quantify the gap or identify where the losses are happening.
You can see competitor brands appearing in search results more often. Maybe traffic is flat while theirs seems to be growing. But without a structured share of voice analysis, it’s impossible to know the scale of the problem, which categories are most affected, or where the realistic opportunities to fight back exist.
INVESTMENT DUE DILIGENCE
Your PE firm, VC fund, or board needs to understand the organic “size of prize” before committing further investment.
The investment thesis depends on organic growth potential. Leadership needs to see the total addressable market, current capture rate, and competitive position expressed in terms they use for every other market analysis. SOV gives them the organic equivalent of market share data – the metric that unlocks budget decisions.
GROWTH THROUGH SOV GAPS
You want to identify new organic growth opportunities by finding where competitors are visible and you’re not.
Your current SEO strategy is based on the keywords you already track. But the biggest opportunities often sit in the spaces you haven’t looked at yet – categories where competitors hold share that you don’t even compete for. SOV analysis exposes these blind spots and sizes the opportunity behind each one.
REPORTING DOESN’T REFLECT REALITY
Your current SEO reporting shows rankings and traffic but doesn’t tell leadership where you actually sit in the market.
The monthly SEO report says things are “improving” but leadership has no way to evaluate that against the competitive landscape. A share of voice framework gives organic performance the same market-position context that every other channel already reports on – making SEO accountable and comparable.
CATEGORY-LEVEL STRATEGY
You want to understand your organic position in specific product or service categories, not just at a domain level.
You might lead in one product category and be invisible in another. Domain-level visibility metrics hide these dynamics. Category-level SOV reveals where to protect your lead, where to invest for growth, and where to concede to competitors who have a structural advantage you can’t efficiently overcome.
Frequently asked questions
Ranking reports tell you where individual pages appear for individual keywords. Share of Voice tells you how much of the total market you own. It’s the difference between knowing you rank third for one term and knowing you capture 14% of all organic visibility in your category while your closest competitor captures 31%. SOV gives leadership the same market-position framing they use for every other channel – market share, competitive gap, growth ceiling. It’s the metric that turns SEO from a list of keywords into a strategic conversation about competitive position.
Both. Traditional SOV measures your visibility across Google’s organic results, but that’s now only part of the picture. We’ve built our own AI and LLM search monitoring platform that tracks how often your brand is cited, referenced, or recommended across Google AI Mode, ChatGPT search, Perplexity, and other LLM-powered search experiences. The SOV audit includes an AI share of search assessment so you can see your competitive position across both traditional and AI-generated results – and understand where the shift between the two is accelerating in your category.
That’s one of the primary use cases. SOV data translates organic performance into market share language that investors and board members already understand. For PE-backed businesses, it provides the organic equivalent of the market share metrics used in every other investment analysis: total addressable market, current capture rate, competitive positioning, and growth headroom. The deliverable is presentation-ready and designed to sit alongside revenue data, paid media metrics, and market analysis – not buried in an SEO team dashboard.
Yes, and that’s where it becomes most valuable. Domain-level visibility scores hide the dynamics that matter. You might lead in one product category and be invisible in another. Category-level SOV reveals where to protect your position, where to invest for growth, and where competitors have a structural advantage that isn’t worth fighting. We build custom SOV models around your market definition – by product line, audience segment, region, or commercial priority – so the analysis reflects how your business actually operates, not how a generic SEO tool categorises it.
Either, depending on what you need. Some clients want a one-off competitive assessment to inform a strategic decision. Others want SOV as a standing metric in their business intelligence platform alongside revenue, paid media, and market data. For ongoing monitoring, we configure API integrations and data warehouse connections so organic market share updates automatically in your dashboards – including AI search visibility tracked through our proprietary monitoring platform. The goal is that leadership can check organic competitive position the same way they check any other market metric, without waiting for the SEO team to pull a manual report.

What they said
As someone who has been doing SEO for about 10 years and having worked on companies of all shapes and sizes myself, I can tell the difference between someone who gets their hands dirty and delves into the deepest regions of your site vs an SEO “expert” who pushes a button and runs a site audit report only to tell you you have “12 duplicate title tags.” Carl is definitely the former, and whenever I need a fresh set of eyes on my site, I call him.
