What Does Each Case Show?

Each case uses the same card.

Type of business and area

The name stays private unless the owner approves it.

Starting point

The map pack position and one more number, with a date.

The problem

What was wrong, and the cause if we can show it.

The work

The steps in order, with dates.

After

The map pack position and calls or clicks, with a date range.

AI answers

What we saw, and how and when we checked.

What else changed

Anything else that could move the numbers.

What the case does not prove

A plain note on the limits.

How Do We Check the Map Pack?

Sacramento AI SEO Agency picks a few real searches. We set the area and the date. Then we write down where the business shows in Google Maps.

A map position is a snapshot. It changes by place and by time. Our guide to Google Maps and local 3-pack SEO shows how map results work.

How Do We Check AI Answers?

Sacramento AI SEO Agency asks a few chosen questions in Google and in AI tools. We check by hand on set dates. Then we write down if a summary shows and if the business is named.

Sometimes no summary shows at all. When that happens, we write that down too. See our page on Google AI Overviews optimization for more.

What Else Can Change a Result?

Many things can move a number. Season and demand can change it. So can new reviews, ads, a Google update, a new location or a change on the Google Business Profile.

This means that a good case lists each one. Then you can judge the outcome yourself.

What Can a Case Not Show?

Sacramento AI SEO Agency uses two Google tools in this work. The Google Cloud Natural Language API is a paid tool that scores the names and topics in text. The Google Search Grounding API shows which sources Google Search returns for a question. Neither tool counts calls, visits or leads. Neither shows what other AI engines will cite.

Where Are the Cases?

No case is posted yet. We post a case only when the data is real and the owner has approved it. This page shows the card we will use.
