# Guides

Practical, step-by-step guides for teams working on AI search visibility. Each guide answers one question, such as how to track brand mentions in ChatGPT, which metrics to report, how to let AI crawlers reach your site or how to see AI referral traffic in Google Analytics 4, with screenshots, checklists and links to the sources behind every claim. Start here if you need to do something this week rather than read the theory.
