A lot of AI search advice circulating right now sounds confident and tests out flimsy. A recent Ahrefs research effort spanning more than 50 studies and roughly 15 million data points set out to check the claims the industry keeps repeating — about schema markup, llms.txt files, backlinks, “best of” listicles, and whether AI search […]
In early August, an SEO named Anastasia Kourou spotted something strange in her Search Console report: queries that weren’t searches at all. “Yes.” “Yes go on.” “Yes, pricing.” She posted a screenshot and asked Google’s John Mueller directly whether Search Console was somehow logging what people say to an AI chatbot. Mueller confirmed it was. […]
Mentions and citations have become the go-to scoreboard for AI search visibility. Marketing teams pull a share-of-voice number from a monitoring tool, watch it move up or down between query runs, and report it as if it were a performance metric. The trouble is that none of those numbers say whether a chatbot actually sent […]
Google is giving Gemini and Flow users a choice they didn’t have before: whether AI-generated images, video, and audio carry a visible watermark at all. The invisible tracking layer underneath stays on regardless, which is the detail most coverage of this update is glossing over. The change matters less as a design tweak and more […]
Jeremy Howard, the Answer.AI developer behind llms.txt, shipped the first update to the spec since its 2024 launch. Llms.txt v2, released August 10, doesn’t change what the file is for. It fixes a specific gap: nothing in the original version told agents where a page’s Markdown copy actually lived. What Llms.txt V2 Actually Changes The […]
Local search used to leave the comparison work to the customer. Someone typed a query, scanned a list of ten blue links, opened a few, and picked one. Ask an AI assistant for a local recommendation today and you get something different: AI-generated local business recommendations that have already been narrowed down for you, often […]
Google has added Gemini 3.7 Flash as a selectable model in AI Mode, one day after the model’s initial release for coding and agent tasks. Robby Stein, VP of Product for Google Search, announced the rollout on X, writing that the model is “better at following instructions + understanding your intent, so you get even […]
Google says the Gemini app has passed 1 billion monthly users, and published usage figures showing that 63% of them now use voice. The figures were shared in a blog post on August 11, and Gemini app vice president Josh Woodward also shared the same numbers on X. Neither the post nor the thread explains […]
A new SE Ranking report found ChatGPT showed ads on 28.69% of the commercial prompts in its healthcare category, more than 10 times the 2.64% the company recorded in Google’s AI Mode. OpenAI’s placement rules no longer keep ads away from medical advice the way its launch announcement describes. In April, OpenAI made its ad […]
Anthropic will embed invisible watermarks in text produced by its new Claude models and include signed provenance metadata with generated files, as detailed in a support article. This marking is implemented worldwide, not just in the European Union. According to Anthropic, a detected mark indicates that Claude may have processed the content, but it does […]
