By question type
Where GoDaddy shows up, by the intent behind the question. Every web hosting panel asks the same balanced mix — 10 prompts per type — so these rates are directly comparable. A gap here (strong on recommendations, invisible on comparisons) is where AI visibility is being won or lost.
| Question type | Mentioned | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Recommendations “What's the best option for me?” | 0% | |
| Comparisons “How do the top options stack up?” | 10% | |
| Ready to buy “Which one should I actually get?” | 1% | |
| Problem-solving “I have this problem — what fixes it?” | 0% | |
| Informational “How does this kind of product work?” | 0% |
