For decades, visibility meant ranking.
Today, ranking means almost nothing.

LLMs generate answers without showing the results.
So the only real advantage is being recognized when the model recreates a concept.

The key question is no longer:
“How do I rank?”

It’s:
“Am I included in the model’s mental map of this topic?”

Recognition Factors include:

• stable author identity

• strong entity signals

• cross-platform semantic consistency

• dense conceptual content

• a recognizable narrative pattern

• interlinked references supporting the same meaning

Modern SEO isn’t a competition for position.
It’s a competition for interpretability.
