Before any digital PR campaign, ask three questions.
1.Which publication do buyers and AI answers already trust on this topic?â¨2.Does the story hold a fact worth quoting?â¨3.Will the page still be accurate in a year?
Coverage that fails one of them is just noise

Before you share a stat, ask three things.
1. Who measured it?
2. How do they define the thing they counted?
3. Who benefits if people believe it?
A number with no definition is just a headline.

Airbnb is building its own AI travel agent, coming in the first half of 2027.
Not another chatbot. It's built around maps, photos and full itineraries.
Once AI plans your whole trip, do you still open Google, or just tell your travel app where you want to go?

About 1% CTR, yet over 20% of traffic affected, on one site. Same week, Search Console showed click spikes some SEOs suspect are bots.
Clicks can hide value and fake it, so always read them next to brand searches and leads.
New: We Opted Out of Google AI Search - Here's Exactly What Happened
You may have seen the experiment data that Google AI search links gave us a 0.9% CTR, but here's the full story
⢠Yes, AI citations had a ~1% CTR
⢠But impacted over 20% of our traffic
⢠Citations *also* increased regular organic clicks
Turns out Google AI citations are far more important than we thought (1/2)
Should a publisher allow AI crawlers?
A. Yes, all of them
B. Only some
C. No, block them

It is a business decision, not a technical one.
AI replaced tasks I used to pay people or services for. It didnât replace the review. That part is still mine.
Whatâs the first task you handed off?
Googleâs updated docs say âCrawled, currently not indexedâ is common and not always a problem.

1. Does the page matter for revenue or links?
2. Does it add something indexed pages donât?
3. Does it get internal links?
Fix those, then recheck.
Google is giving AI Overviews more #SERP space.
For some queries, they can now expand automatically into a full response, pushing core search results farther down the page.

Which surface would you track first?
Which AI visibility number would you actually put in a client report?

Ghost citation: the AI links to your site but never says your brand name. You get counted, not named.
Be honest, when did you last read the answer text instead of the source list?
Do you track named mentions separately from citations?
