How We Identify and Capture Brand Mentions

Brand Visibility Audit

We map your current presence across media sites, forums, search engines, and AI platforms. We track brand mentions (linked and unlinked), backlinks, and where your name shows up, or doesn’t, when people ask questions in tools like ChatGPT or Google’s AI Overviews. With this complete picture, we can define the most effective strategy for your business.

Strategic Positioning

We define where your brand should be visible and what topics it should be associated with. We audit existing mentions, analyse competitor positioning, and identify topic clusters where your brand should appear. Then we build a strategy to insert you into those conversations so search engines and AI tools understand what you do and when to surface you as a source.

Digital PR and Media Outreach

We secure coverage in relevant industry publications, news sites, and niche outlets through targeted outreach, reactive commentary, and thought leadership. We pitch expert insights to journalists, respond to media requests, and place contributed articles. These mentions build trust with your audience and earn high-authority backlinks that strengthen your rankings and brand visibility.

Community Mentions on Reddit, Quora & UGC

We get your brand mentioned where real discussions happen: Reddit threads, Quora questions, industry forums, and product roundups. We contribute relevant responses through trusted accounts, add your brand to existing conversations, and seed authentic mentions. These are high-trust sources for both people and AI models, helping you show up more in AI-generated answers and search results.

Citation and Backlink Campaigns

We run focused campaigns to earn contextual backlinks and unlinked brand mentions. Our team pitches resource pages, contributes expert quotes, partners with publishers, and inserts your brand into high-authority content. Even without a link, co-occurrence and citation help AI tools connect your brand to key topics and competitors, boosting your chances of being surfaced in both search and AI results.

Ongoing Opportunity Capture

We monitor brand mentions, citations, and link growth across media, search engines, and AI platforms using a mix of tracking tools, manual research, and trend mapping. We surface where you're gaining traction and identify emerging platforms or threads worth targeting. As new channels emerge, we adapt fast, keeping you visible in places that matter now, and in the ones that are coming next.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are brand mentions?

Brand mentions are any time your brand name appears on a third-party site, whether it’s in an article, forum thread, social post, or product roundup. They do not need to include a backlink to be valuable. Mentions help search engines and AI tools recognise your brand, connect it to relevant topics, and surface it in responses.

Why do brand mentions matter?

Brand mentions act as trust and authority signals. When your brand is consistently cited across credible sources, AI search platforms and traditional search engines are more likely to surface it in results. Mentions support brand visibility, reinforce relevance, and help you show up in both organic and AI search.

How do you monitor brand mentions?

We use tools, manual research, and media alerts to track brand mentions across the web. This includes both linked and unlinked citations, since presence matters even without a link. We also identify trends and surface new opportunities to grow your digital footprint.

What types of brand mentions do you target?

Brand mentions come in all shapes and sizes, but some of the key types we focus on include:

  • Direct brand mentions: Your brand name is cited in a blog post, product list, or comparison page.
  • Indirect brand mentions: Mentions of your product or solution without naming the brand directly, often tied to a feature or use case.
  • Social media mentions: Organic references in LinkedIn posts, X threads, Reddit comments, or Quora answers.
  • Media and news articles: Coverage in relevant publications, including expert quotes, company updates, or founder commentary.
  • Online reviews: Mentions in Google reviews, G2, Capterra, Trustpilot, and niche review sites that influence both buyers and AI search platforms.

What strategies do you use?

We combine content creation, digital PR, guest posting, backlinks, and user-generated content to earn brand mentions. Each tactic is designed to place your brand in credible, contextually relevant environments that build authority and increase visibility across search and AI platforms.

How do brand mentions impact SEO?

Mentions help search engines and AI tools understand what your brand is about and why it matters. They increase your relevance to key topics and boost trust signals, which improves your chances of ranking in search results and being included in AI-generated answers.
