FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Merchant Visibility, a U.S. digital marketing company founded in 2025, today announced the availability of its Merchant Visibility Report, a monthly report that shows small and midsize business owners how their business appears across search engines, map apps, review sites and AI assistants, and what to fix first.
Many local businesses do not know whether customers can find accurate information about them online. Business hours may differ between Google and Apple Maps, a phone number may be outdated on a review site, or a business may be missing from the answers AI assistants give to questions such as "Who is a good plumber near me?" Each gap can send a ready-to-buy customer to a competitor.
The Merchant Visibility Report checks a business's public information in one place. It reviews the consistency of the business name, address and phone number across major listing platforms, the condition of its Google Business Profile, review activity, website search basics, and how the business shows up in AI-generated answers. The report then explains, in plain English, which items are complete, which need attention and which actions are likely to matter most.
"Business owners are busy running their businesses, not auditing dozens of websites," said Timothy Chatman of Merchant Visibility. "Our report gives them a clear picture of where they stand and a short, practical list of next steps. We show the evidence behind every finding, so owners can see exactly what we checked and track their progress month over month."
What the report covers- Listings and maps: whether the business appears accurately on Google, Apple Maps, Bing and other major platforms.
- Reputation: review counts, ratings and response activity.
- Search and AI answers (SEO, AEO and GEO): how the business's website and information support visibility in traditional search and in AI assistants.
- Monthly progress: each new report keeps prior results, so owners can see what has improved over time.
Merchant Visibility also offers services that help businesses act on their reports, including listing and Google Business Profile management, review management, search optimization, websites, social media, advertising and public relations. Owners can choose only the services they need.
The company serves businesses nationwide. Its team is available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
