Plenty of teams now manually prompt an LLM to see if their brand appears. That’s a point-in-time snapshot; AI engines regenerate answers with every query, so a citation confirmed last month can drop without any signal. A single prompt test establishes no baseline, detects no citation loss, and diagnoses no cause: it can’t tell you […]

AI visibility tracking data isn’t entirely reliable. Because generative models often produce different responses, the citation shares and rankings on your dashboard are merely snapshots of a continuously changing target, not fixed facts. A difference between you and a competitor could be genuine or just fluctuation between measurements. A new IQRush paper due for release […]

“What’s closing is the cheap part,” Shane Tepper told me. “The stretch where you can win position with work instead of budget.” Tepper is co-founder of Resonate Labs, and I’d asked him a pointed question. Everyone in SEO talks about a closing window on earned AI visibility, but the surface area of AI search keeps […]

That is not a moral claim, and it is not a warning about getting caught. It is a description of a mechanism that several groups of researchers have now documented from different angles, and once you see how the pieces fit together, a good deal of confusing behavior in AI search stops being confusing. I […]

Every mid-market and enterprise SEO team has hit the same wall this year. You can see you’re showing up in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and AI Mode, but when leadership asks you to prove what’s actually working, the honest answer is you’re estimating. And the testing playbook that worked for a decade doesn’t transfer. Here’s the […]

Multi-channel marketing tends to sound more complicated than it needs to be. But we live in a world of “more”: more platforms, more campaigns, more assets, and more reporting to explain. The work expands, but the strategy behind each channel is not always clearly defined. Especially when you’re asked to do more at the speed […]

For more than two decades, digital strategy has revolved around a deceptively simple objective: Drive people to webpages. Search engines rewarded documents. Analytics rewarded pageviews. Marketing rewarded engagement. As organizations matured, they invested heavily in designing increasingly sophisticated digital experiences that guided customers through carefully orchestrated buying journeys. Information was intentionally distributed across dozens, sometimes […]

Last year, 2.5% of Writesonic’s leads came from AI search. As of March, 35% do. Samanyou Garg, Founder and CEO of Writesonic, showed the system behind that number in his Search Engine Journal webinar: agents surface what moved across every search platform, practitioners prioritize and act. “AI search didn’t necessarily kill SEO, but it turned […]

Google’s John Mueller answered a question related to something a Redditor was using that’s called an llms-author.txt. The person who posted the question is having a hard time being found for their name because it is the same as two other more popular entities, making it more difficult for people to find them and discover […]

Google published a format for turning a body of knowledge into a folder of linked markdown files. It was built for internal company data, and by accident, it solves a problem public websites have too. Right now, the most an AI agent gets from your website is a flat read of your pages, one at […]
