Abhord Quickstart Guide (Refreshed Edition)
Who this is for: new Abhord users who want a fast, reliable workflow to measure and improve their presence across large language models (LLMs) and answer engines.
What’s new in this edition
- Stronger focus on intent clusters: run surveys by use-case (e.g., “pricing,” “integration,” “alternatives”) rather than single keywords.
- Cache-awareness best practices: avoid stale answers by varying prompts, timing runs, and rotating model panels.
- More robust share-of-voice (SOV) math: weight by prominence and answer quality, not just raw mentions.
- Competitor change detection: monitor spikes in mention velocity and sentiment deltas, not only totals.
- Action loops: map insights directly to content, product, and partnership tasks, with suggested owners and SLAs.
