    Bella Maas, Realtor

    Local real estate

    From “a source link” to a clear client action plan

    Muse Platforms delivers managed AEO, GEO and SEO using Ask Hercules. Its work with Bella Maas, a local real-estate professional, shows how the platform connects client tracking to practical deliverables, rather than stopping at a visibility score.

    Keep the client’s work together

    Bella’s dedicated workspace brings her business details, local buyer questions, audit work and AI answers into one client context. The agency can return to that account without mixing in another brand’s results.

    Find the difference that matters

    In the reviewed 12-question scan, Perplexity listed Bella’s website as a source in 11 results, but the answers did not name her. That is evidence of source visibility, not evidence that buyers were being recommended Bella.

    Turn the diagnosis into deliverables

    The team built local questions and a Google Business Profile Pack with an editable description, services, Q&A and posts. PDF and text exports make the work usable by Bella or an assistant updating the profile.

    Demonstrated

    • A clearer client conversation, a specific next step and tangible work to hand over, all anchored to what the AI answers actually showed.

    This is a delivery case, not a claim of increased rankings, leads or revenue. The scan is a point-in-time observation; subsequent visibility gains have not been established. Ask Hercules prepares profile content but does not publish it to Google.

    The discovery challenge

    Subamerica sits in a category where audiences may search for a brand, a creator tool, a broadcast outlet, a streaming destination or a monetization model, often using long, conversational questions. August AEO diagnostics flagged schema, FAQ, content-depth and entity-signaling gaps.

    • Strengthen NYC search visibility for the Subamerica brand and creator-platform proposition.
    • Improve machine readability through structured data, semantic page architecture and answer-style content.
    • Increase the chance that AI systems cite or recommend Subamerica for creator, streaming and independent-media questions.
    • Build a consistent entity footprint across the website and external surfaces.

    SEO: a larger organic footprint

    Between the 8 Aug and 21 Sep 2026 report snapshots: active users 1,917 → 3,142 (+64%), sessions 2,024 → 3,997 (+98%), events 10,097 → 29,001 (+187%) and average engagement time 12s → 24s. Overall engagement rate moved from 28.26% to 20.87%, while Organic Search recorded 78.1% engagement in the September channel table. These are snapshot-to-snapshot movements, not a single continuous attribution series.

    GEO: being present in the answer, not only the index

    August scan: score 64, 71% share of voice across 348 model responses from 87 queries (Perplexity 100%, Gemini 93%, ChatGPT 100%, Claude 0%). September scan: score 44, 51% share of voice across 169 responses from 42 queries (Perplexity 91%, Gemini 45%, ChatGPT 45%, Claude 36%). Query counts changed between scans, so these are diagnostic snapshots, not a simple growth line.

    GEO brand visibility report, 9 Sep 2026

    Demonstrated

    • Branded discovery: Subamerica Creator Portal and Subamerica Network were #1 in both August and September SEO snapshots.
    • Semantic discovery: page-1 coverage expanded to include Indie Underground Media Network and Indie Underground Streaming TV at #1 in September.
    • Search depth: September organic search reported 78.1% engagement, with 32 seconds average engagement time in the channel table.
    • AI readiness: latest AEO audit reported 100 answer inclusion, 100 generative visibility and 100 recommendation consistency.

    Still developing

    • GEO visibility remained uneven by model; Claude improved into measurable territory, while Gemini and ChatGPT were lower in the September scan.
    • The latest AEO diagnostic still shows limited semantic authority and entity salience as important next-stage work.
    • Non-branded discovery for artist community and monetization terms remained weaker than the core branded footprint.

    The visibility problem

    Legal and IP services are high-intent, jurisdiction-specific and question-heavy. The June audit surfaced gaps around answerability, schema coverage, headings, meta completeness and entity signals.

    • Grow qualified organic visibility across Saudi Arabia, Oman and the UAE.
    • Create answer-ready content for FAQs, service queries and long-tail legal questions.
    • Improve structured data, internal linking and entity clarity.
    • Build cross-platform brand mentions that support AI recognition and citation.

    SEO: a broader market footprint

    September snapshot: 223 organic search sessions (56.5% engagement, 32s average), 1,564 total sessions (19.82% engagement) and 7 AI Assistant sessions (71.43% engagement, 34s average). Organic Search is smaller than Direct but materially more engaged: 56.5% versus 13.12%.

    • Continue strengthening schema coverage: only 10% of crawled pages had JSON-LD in the latest audit.
