Here are the likely reasons for zero results of your prompt:
1) PROMPT HAS NO SEARCH VOLUME – It is likely that the prompt truly has zero searches in AI Overviews. That’s a valid value — not a bug or reason to rate it 1-star.
Just like regular keywords appearing in search engines and how they have high, low, or zero search volume, AI prompts follow the same concept. There must be actual occurrences of brand mention for it to go from 0 to 1.
This is especially true if your prompt is non-English given that is how majority of people prompt these models.
Suggestion: try variants of the prompts as they’d be searched or asked in Google and ChatGPT.
2) BAD PROMPT / CHANGE THE PROMPT / PROMPT IS NOT SPECIFIC – If you entered something that doesn’t have AI search volume, there would be zero results. That’s not fault of the app — it tracks results daily for that prompt. Instead, try variants of the prompt to get better AI results:
BAD EXAMPLE of PROMPT: “lifetime deal”
GOOD EXAMPLE of PROMPT: “what are the best lifetime deal platforms.”
See the difference? Test, test, test…. just as you would with standard keywords to track whether you rank for them in Google search results.
3] TIME – The system checks for your prompts daily. Depending on the prompt, it’s possible you haven’t been mentioned in AI results since you input the prompt. There must be actual search volume and a mention of your brand to trigger a hit. If there is none, continue to track over time. Remember, just like regular SEO, AI SEO is a long-term approach (think in months and years, not minutes and days).
