The result, visualized

Five views of the same measured result.

Every chart below is drawn from two measured Search Console counts (at signup and at the latest check) plus the published window. Derived figures (multiplier, weekly rate, percentile) are calculated from those.

From 20 to 47 indexed pages

The curve is illustrative. Search Console shows the count at about 20 in early August, about 22 in late August and about 18 in early September, then jumping to 47 around Sept 21 and holding into October. See the Search Console report below.

Pages added per week

This case has a start date and a latest Search Console count, but the measurement window is not fixed, so a weekly rate is not calculated. A dated Search Console export would add it.

Industry context

Why AI visibility matters for sheet metal contractors

General contractors, owners and architects research subcontractors and metal systems long before a bid goes out, and more of that early research now happens in AI tools.

Across local AI answers, business websites supply 42% of citations (BrightLocal, 2026). A contractor whose own pages describe its systems, materials and project types gives AI something specific to cite.

The challenge

Where TINCO Sheet Metal started

TINCO's reputation is built on decades of relationships with builders and developers, and much of that history lives offline. Online, the site has to explain the systems and materials TINCO works with, from insulated wall panels to zinc-coated metals.

When tracking started on Aug 4, Google had indexed about 20 pages. At the latest count, 36 pages were not indexed for 4 reasons.

The approach

What the Rank Authority platform does

This describes the platform's published capabilities that apply to a site like this one. It is not a log of every change made to TINCO Sheet Metal.

  1. 01

    AI Optimization

    Scans every page and deploys on-page and schema fixes, then submits them for indexing.

  2. 02

    RankLink

    Links service and system pages into clusters so the site reads as one authority on commercial sheet metal.

  3. 03

    AI Visibility

    Builds and tracks citation-targeted artifacts across 9 AI platforms.

Google decides when it indexes, which realistically takes three to four weeks. Nothing is held hostage: cancel and every artifact, fix and article stays live.

Results & interpretation

What the growth means for AI discoverability

TINCO Sheet Metal added about 27 indexed pages, taking its index to 2.4 times its starting size. That ranks #14 of 23 Rank Authority cases by growth rate and #19 of 25 by pages added.

Going from about 20 to 47 indexed pages (about +135%) more than doubles the pages Google, and the AI systems that draw on it, can find and quote. The 36 pages still not indexed are the next opportunity.

Why indexed pages matter: AI answer engines like Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode build on Google's index, and other assistants draw on search indexes and the web. A page that is not indexed cannot be retrieved, matched or cited. Indexed-page growth is not the same as citations or customers, but it is the precondition for both.

What this means for you

If your business runs on contractor and developer relationships, your website still has to show what you do. Indexed pages for each system and project type are how AI tools find you when a new builder starts looking.

FAQ

Questions about this case

Is there a client review?

No review of Rank Authority has been published for this client.

How exact is the starting number?

The Aug 4 figure of about 20 indexed pages is read from the first day of the Search Console chart, so it is approximate. The latest figures (47 indexed, 36 not indexed) are exact.

Is TINCO related to Medsco Fabrication?

Yes. Medsco was established in 2001 to support its sister company TINCO Sheet Metal, according to Medsco's website.

How were these numbers measured?

Indexed-page counts come from Google Search Console's Page indexing report, shared Oct 11, 2026: about 20 at signup, read from the first days of the chart, and 47 at the latest count. Multiplier, growth and percentile are calculated from those figures, so they are approximate too.
