Not a blog, a build log. We document the work as we do it: building our own visibility, developing Recoil Radar, and running citation experiments in the open. If we are going to sell this, we should show our own.
We are applying our own methodology to recoilmedia.com: complete LocalBusiness schema and consistent NAP, social profiles linked as one entity, a full sitemap, and depth pages, About, case studies, the measurement methodology, industry playbooks, and a learning center. The point is to be the proof, not just claim it.
See the experiments →We captured Recoil’s starting line: currently named in zero of our measured Prescott AEO phrases, with a scattered, non-local set of agencies cited instead. That is good news, it means the niche is open and contestable. This is the honest before we will measure against.
How we measure →A niche product brand we work with started getting recommended by ChatGPT organically, because it was specific and clear. An audit found six fixable gaps that were leaving that advantage on the table. We closed them, and it is now cited across most of its target AI queries.
