01TL;DR
Most GEO plans stop at content and schema. They miss measurement. This guide gives Indian brands a 90-day measurement model for AI search: prompt sets, baseline tests, weekly cadence and iteration rules. The goal is not vanity visibility. It is repeatable brand mentions, linked citations and prompt-position improvement across ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity.

0201. Why measurement changes everything
GEO without measurement is guessing. With measurement, it becomes:
- predictable
- optimisable
- defensible to leadership and finance
- commercial topics
- informational topics
- comparison topics
- local Indian context queries
- ChatGPT
- Claude
- Perplexity
- does the brand appear?
- is it named?
- is it linked?
- what position does it appear in?
- review pages with zero citations
- review pages with highest creative investment but weak results
- double down on formats that are working
- expand prompt set from 20 to 50
- plan next 90-day cycle
- 20 stable prompts run weekly
- four KPIs tracked in one dashboard
- clear alert rule for drift
- monthly review of underperforming pages and prompts
- quarterly prompt expansion

Build a prompt set of 20 target queries across:Each prompt should be a real user question, not a brand statement.
Baseline test
Run prompts across:Record:
This is your baseline.

0403. Phase 2 — Weekly measurement cadence
Run the same 20 prompts weekly. Track:
| KPI | Definition | |-----|-----------| | Mention Rate | % of prompts naming your brand | | Citation Rate | % of answers with your URL linked | | Position | where your brand appears in the answer | | Drift Score | week-over-week composite change |
Alert if Drift Score drops more than 10 points week-over-week.

0605. Common mistakes
Mistake 1 — Measuring visibility only Visibility without citation is not business result. Optimise for linked mentions, not just brand name appearance.
Mistake 2 — Inconsistent prompt set If the prompt set changes every week, the measurement is noise. Keep prompts stable and only expand after review.
Mistake 3 — Ignoring negative drift A 10-point drift drop is an early warning. Treat it like a traffic drop in paid search.
