Progress Over Time
Live as of August 17, 2026
Month over month, side by side.
This is one living report, not a fresh PDF every month. Each check-in adds a mark to this chart and a row to the table below it. The chart tracks your site visibility score, which has held at 84 since the day we started. That is worth explaining rather than glossing over: your site was already the strong part. Your weak parts are authority and content, and neither of those moves this particular number.
Month over month, side by side
Eight measures up, two down, seven flat, and one we cannot measure and have marked as such rather than showing you a zero. The pattern is consistent and it tells you exactly one thing: everything we control directly moved, and everything that depends on other people vouching for you did not. Posts, fixes, pages, profile completeness and views are all ours to push, and they all climbed. Reviews, authority and AI mentions all need someone outside your business to say you are good, and those all sat still. That is the whole diagnosis in one table.
The one number we still cannot show you
Search Console is connected now, and it changes what we can tell you.
At your 30 day check-in this was a gap we could not fill. It is filled. We now read your Google Search Console directly, which is the tool that reports how people found your actual website: what they typed, how often Google showed you, and where you ranked. Here is the first month of it.
1,715
Times your site appeared in Google
Up from 1,460, a 17% rise
185
Different searches you appeared for
Up from 162 last month
20
Of those in the top 10 on Google
7 of them in the top 3
17
Clicks to your site from Google
32 last month. Read the note below.
Two honest notes on those numbers. Your average position is about 29, which is page three, and page three is where impressions happen and clicks mostly do not. That is why 1,715 appearances turned into 17 clicks. And we would not read much into 32 clicks becoming 17. Google withholds the search terms behind almost all of them, so we cannot tell you which ones moved, and at those sizes a couple of people searching your name by hand swings the whole number. Impressions and positions are the trustworthy part at this stage. Clicks become trustworthy when there are enough of them to be.

The thing worth reading twice on this page
You are already number one in Google for roof insurance claims in Austin.
Twenty of your searches sit in the top ten. Seven sit in the top three. Once you set aside people searching your business name, every single one of them is an insurance claim or a storm damage search.
You have been adjusting claims for twenty years and you are licensed in seventeen states. Google has worked that out. The place you are winning is the exact place you are best, and none of it is by accident.
The flip side is the honest one: for the plain searches, roofer in Austin, roof repair near me, you are nowhere yet. Those are the biggest and most fought over terms in your market and they take reviews and authority to win. So the next 30 days do two things at once. We push harder on the claims ground you already hold, because that is a real lead, and we keep building toward the general terms.

AI visibility, week by week
We check five AI assistants every week and ask them roofing questions the way a homeowner would. Here is every check since we started. A filled mark means an assistant named your business in its answer.
You may have seen a percentage attached to this elsewhere. We are not going to lead with one, because on a signal this small the percentage moves more than the reality does. The difference between the 1.5% we reported last month and the 0.9% today is one assistant, in one week, answering differently. That is not a decline worth explaining and we are not going to invent a story for it. The number that means something is the one on the left of that chart: you started at zero, and you are not at zero now.
Where AI does name you
The same place Google does. Insurance claims.
When we ask the assistants roofing questions, two come back with you in the answer, and they are the two you would pick:
- Second for how to file an insurance claim for storm roof damage in Austin
- Third for the best roofing contractors for insurance claim repairs in Austin
There is one more thing in this data worth knowing. When the assistants answer roofing questions for your area, they read your website more than any competitor's. Your site was cited 327 times across the questions we track, against 111 for the next roofer. So the assistants are using you as a source and still not recommending you by name. That gap is the same gap as everywhere else on this page: they have read what you say about yourself, and they are waiting for other people to back it up.
