Are SEOs actually paying $300+ a month for AI visibility tracking?

I've been doing more AEO work recently and testing various platforms for tracking brand visibility across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI results etc.

One thing I can't quite get my head around is the pricing.

Once you start tracking a decent number of prompts, competitors and AI engines, some of these tools get expensive very quickly.

And ultimately I'm mainly trying to answer:

  • Does the brand appear?

  • Which competitors appear instead?

  • Which prompts are we weak for?

  • What sources are the AI engines citing?

  • Which URLs/domains keep getting referenced?

  • Is visibility improving after we make changes?

  • What did each AI engine actually say?

I wanted this data for my own AEO work without worrying about prompt allowances, so we ended up putting together Llumo using a combination of open-source technology and functionality we're building ourselves.

We've taken a BYOK approach.

The platform itself is free. You add your own API keys and pay the underlying providers directly.

So rather than paying more because you want to monitor 500 prompts instead of 100, the cost is essentially tied to the actual usage.

But I'm curious what other SEOs think about this whole category.

Are you actually getting enough value from AI visibility trackers to justify $100–$500+ a month?

And more importantly, what data from these tools are you actually using to make SEO/AEO decisions?

I'm trying to work out what we should build next, so I'd be particularly interested in features that would help you go from "we aren't appearing for this prompt" → "here's what we should actually do about it."

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

Clients site has a weird issue with 302 redirects that I haven't seen before.

Site is in Drupal, hosted on Amazon CDN & Cloudflare. So here's a quick breakdown: The site itself works normally. It's a bit dated, but you can click on links and navigate around as you'd expect. Seeing no obvious issues, I run a Screaming Frog crawl to begin my audit. Only 5 pages were picked up by the crawl which was super weird, since all internal links are regular html and there shouldn't be any issues. So I go through the site and manually collect a bunch of URLs, which I submit to SF again as a list. Every single link bar the 5 originally crawled return a 302, with the 'redirect' pointing back to the home page. Except as I said, those pages don't browser redirect. Browser side, they work fine. I guess they redirect the crawl bot though, since the rest of the site is functionally invisible. Other tools I've looked at say that the pages return simultaneous 302 and 200s, which doesn't make too much sense. These 302s are also old enough ...
