What we observed in this category

Jetset Plumbing dominates the Plumbers in Western Brisbane AI visibility landscape with a 25.0% visibility score and a 62.5% citation rate, producing a composite score of 36.2. The next closest brand, Metropolitan Plumbing, holds a composite score of just 3.8, making the gap between first and second place effectively a chasm. Every other brand in the top 10 sits at a composite score of 0.0, meaning Jetset Plumbing is capturing almost all meaningful AI presence in this category on its own.

Metropolitan Plumbing presents an interesting divergence: it carries a 12.5% citation rate despite registering 0.0% visibility, suggesting Google AI Mode references it indirectly or in supporting context without surfacing it as a primary answer. O'Brien Plumbing, Jim's Plumbing, and Mr Emergency all record 0.0% on both metrics despite being nationally recognised brands, indicating that name recognition alone does not translate into AI citation or visibility in this specific local category.

Google AI Mode is the sole engine recorded across all 20 brands in this audit. The top cited sources include google.com, hipages.com.au, mpaq.com.au, and facebook.com alongside jetsetplumbing.com.au itself, pointing to a mix of directory platforms, industry association pages, and social signals as the primary anchors. Smaller operator domains such as conradmartens.com.au, salmonplumbing.com.au, and adcoplumbing.com.au also appear in the cited sources list, suggesting the AI draws on locally specific content rather than relying solely on large national brand sites.

How to read this AEO ranking

Four things worth knowing before you act on the numbers above. These are the same definitions across every industry page — for category-specific observations, see the What we observed section above (where available) and the per-brand insights inline in the ranking.

Visibility = being named

A brand's visibility % is the share of AI answers that mention it by name in the response prose. This is who AI engines actively recommend to the buyer. More on visibility →

Citation rate = being trusted

Citation rate is the share of AI answers that include the brand's domain as a clickable source link. This is what the AI treats as authoritative evidence, different from being named. More on citation rate →

Top engine differs by brand

The "top engine" column shows which AI surface each brand performs best on. Big gaps between a brand's score across engines usually points to specific content or schema gaps. How AI engines pick sources →

AEO rankings move month to month

AI engines re-crawl and re-rank on shorter cycles than classical search. We re-audit every brand on this list at least every 30 days and refresh this page automatically. How AI search ranking works →
