Our experience across the North
Growthack regularly works with organisations throughout the North of England, supporting businesses that compete nationally and internationally across highly competitive markets.
Our work has been recognised through the Northern Digital Awards, reflecting our ability to deliver commercially successful SEO campaigns that produce measurable business outcomes.
Many of our clients operate across multiple locations or serve national audiences, giving us extensive experience developing scalable search strategies that extend well beyond local SEO.
CK Group (now Talentmark) is a specialist scientific, clinical and healthcare recruitment business based in Stockton-on-Tees, serving employers and candidates across the UK and internationally.
Growthack partnered with CK Group to strengthen its long-term organic visibility through technical SEO, content strategy and website optimisation, while also supporting a complex domain consolidation as the business evolved.
A major focus of the strategy was developing a comprehensive library of career-focused content and job profile resources designed to attract candidates at every stage of the research journey. Alongside this, we improved the technical foundations of the website and ensured search visibility was maintained during the migration from multiple websites to a single domain.
The business was subsequently acquired and rebranded as Talentmark, with the migration successfully preserving and growing organic performance throughout the transition.
Results
More than 2.7 million impressions generated from job profile content
Over 25,000 organic clicks from content in the last 12 months
483 target keywords ranking on the first page of Google
Successful migration from multiple websites to a single domain
Organic visibility maintained and strengthened following acquisition and rebrand to Talentmark
The campaign demonstrates how technical SEO, content strategy and careful migration planning can deliver long-term organic growth for organisations operating in highly competitive recruitment and healthcare sectors.

Process
How do you actually measure AI visibility?
We start by defining a representative set of commercially relevant prompts and buyer queries around your products, services and market. These become the benchmark for ongoing AI visibility tracking, reported in a live dashboard alongside your traditional organic performance instead of a one-off audit.
The dashboard tracks AI Overview Presence (how often Google's AI Overview cites you across that keyword set), AI Brand Mentions (how often ChatGPT names you directly), and AI Search Opportunity (keywords you already rank for but aren't yet cited on –– the fastest-moving target).
Underneath that sits your actual citation footprint: which of your pages AI systems are pulling from, broken down by content type, with real example answers showing exactly what was asked and what got cited.
Every keyword is checked head-to-head against named competitors, so it's clear not just whether you're showing up, but whether a rival is showing up instead. Because generated answers can change considerably over time, we focus on trends across a consistent query set rather than individual responses.
What does an AI Search Visibility engagement actually include?
We begin by establishing a baseline of your existing AI visibility and identifying the topics, prompts and competitors that matter commercially.
From there, we assess and audit the signals influencing that visibility across technical architecture, entities, structured data, content and third-party authority. Recommendations are prioritised according to the gaps identified rather than applying a generic GEO checklist.
For ongoing engagements, we then monitor the same query set over time, compare your visibility against competitors and report AI performance alongside organic search and commercial KPIs.
Can I check my own AI visibility before talking to you?
Yes. Our free AI Visibility Checker provides an initial benchmark of how your brand appears within AI-powered search experiences.
You can also use our AI Overviews Share of Voice tool to assess visibility within Google's AI-generated results and compare your presence against competitors.
These tools provide a useful starting point. Client reporting goes further by tracking a defined set of commercially relevant queries consistently over time.
Is AI search reducing organic traffic, and how do you account for that?
AI-generated answers can reduce clicks for some searches because users increasingly receive information without visiting a website. That makes click volume alone an increasingly incomplete measure of organic performance.
Our reporting therefore considers search visibility, AI visibility, qualified traffic and commercial outcomes together. The objective isn't simply to maximise clicks. It's to understand whether your brand is being discovered by the right audiences and whether organic and AI search are contributing to demand, conversions and revenue.
This also means we don't interpret declining informational clicks in isolation if visibility and commercial performance tell a different story.
Do you guarantee AI visibility or citations?
No. No credible agency can guarantee rankings, AI citations or inclusion within a particular generated response.
AI results are dynamic and ultimately controlled by the platforms producing them.
What we do guarantee is clear strategy, honest advice and execution based on evidence. We establish a measurable baseline, identify the areas where your visibility can realistically be improved and monitor performance over time.
What makes a brand more likely to appear in AI search results?
There isn't a single GEO ranking factor.
AI visibility is influenced by a combination of signals including technically accessible content, clear brand and entity information, topical relevance, structured information and credible third-party references.
We therefore look for gaps across your website and wider digital footprint rather than simply optimising individual pages for ChatGPT. Our Technical Architecture and Authority Building systems address two important parts of that wider picture.
Which AI platforms do you track?
We monitor visibility across major AI-powered discovery platforms including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini and Perplexity.
Rather than treating every platform equally, reporting focuses on the platforms and query types most relevant to your audience. The monitoring set can also evolve as AI search behaviour changes and new platforms gain meaningful adoption.
How is AI Search Visibility different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO primarily measures how webpages perform within search engines through metrics such as rankings, impressions, clicks and organic conversions.
AI Search Visibility adds another layer: whether your brand appears within generated answers, how frequently it appears compared with competitors and which sources AI systems use when forming those answers.
The disciplines overlap heavily. Strong technical SEO, useful content and established brand authority remain important foundations for AI visibility. This is why we treat AI search as part of our Beyond SEO® approach rather than as a replacement for SEO.
What is AI Search Visibility (or GEO)?
AI Search Visibility measures how visible a brand is within AI-powered search experiences such as ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini and Perplexity.
Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) describes the work involved in improving that visibility. Rather than focusing solely on where an individual webpage ranks, we look at whether AI systems understand, mention, cite or recommend your brand for commercially relevant topics and buyer queries.
