seraif: proven results
The following figures come from the Google Search Console of the client project.
- 13.2 million clicks in twelve months for a news publisher. Of these, 7.99 million via Google Discover and 5.2 million via Google Search.
The publisher behind these figures is kept anonymous at its own request.
seraif: how results are measured
- A fixed prompt set is run monthly on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI and Claude. It consists of the buying questions of the respective target group.
- The lead metric is the share of voice per system: the share of prompts in which the company is named.
- Visitors from AI answers are tracked in GA4 via a dedicated channel group through to the enquiry.
- Part of the traffic from AI systems cannot be attributed technically. Every measured figure is therefore a minimum.
- seraif does not promise a mention in AI answers, but the process: monthly measurement, reporting down to enquiry level and adjustment at no extra cost.

seraif: client testimonials
“Moritz helped us enormously in optimising our SEO and GEO strategy. His knowledge of the news world and his ability to understand our perspective and challenges precisely were outstanding.
His workshop on the latest trends and tips for continuously improving our rankings was extremely well received. We were able to apply the new knowledge straight away and immediately saw results on topics such as entertainment and sport.
I would recommend Moritz to anyone who wants professional, thorough and up-to-date advice on SEO and GEO/GAIO.”
Catalina Geib, Policy and Press Comms Manager, Amazon Corporate Communications
“Moritz comes from the newsroom, and you can tell in his SEO work. In an SEO audit he showed us where we were giving away traffic potential. He put his finger on the sore spot, and that is exactly what moved us forward, including on Google Discover.”
Markus Merz, Head of Digital and Deputy Editor-in-Chief, Stimme Mediengruppe
