In the last 6 months at @Ahrefs, we analyzed over 1 billion data points across 14 studies. Here's what we learned about AI search optimization:

1) "Best X" blog listicles are the single most prominent content format cited by AI chatbots. They make up 43.8% of all page types cited by ChatGPT specifically.

2) 67% of ChatGPT's top 1,000 citations come from sources marketers can't influence: Wikipedia (29.7%), homepages (23.8%), app stores (6.6%). Only 32.3% are influenceable content like educational pages, reviews, news, and blog posts.

3) 28.3% of ChatGPT's most-cited pages have zero Google organic visibility. These pages get cited repeatedly by ChatGPT despite not ranking in Google at all. A completely separate discovery layer.

4) ChatGPT only cites about 50% of the URLs it retrieves. It fetches dozens of pages per query but uses half as background context without attribution. This means that being retrieved and being cited are very different things.

5) Adding schema markup had zero meaningful impact on AI citations. AI Overviews actually dipped −4.6%, while AI Mode (+2.4%) and ChatGPT (+2.2%) showed changes indistinguishable from zero.

6) YouTube mentions have the highest correlation (0.737) with AI brand visibility out of all the factors we studied (including all the conventional SEO metrics like backlinks, page count, DR, etc). This held true for both Google-owned and OpenAI products.

7) AI Overviews reduce clicks to the #1 result by 58%. That’s up from 34.5% just 10 months earlier. The trend is accelerating.

8) 99.9% of AI Overviews appear on informational intent queries. Transactional, navigational, and local searches are almost entirely AIO-free. Shopping triggers AIOs just 3.2% of the time.

9) For a given search query, Google’s AI Mode and AI Overviews reach the same conclusions 86% of the time — but cite almost entirely different sources (only 13.7% citation overlap).

10) AI Overviews change every 2.15 days on average, with 70% of content differing between consecutive observations. But semantic similarity stays at 0.95. The words, sources, and entities constantly shuffle, but the actual meaning barely moves.

@IndianGems_ potholes
corruption

and list goes on..

Things won't change unless people think questioning government is like questioning god! Having a healthy debate with positive outcome is good, having non sensical drama for TRP is not

@marclou people seeing this and thinking of copying - build distribution first!

[Ayush Kumar @ayushkr459]

@iuditg Disagreeing here, what if in the last year he learnt skills and built useful projects? What if his newly acquired skills are making him more valuable than what he was.. Hire and offer compensation based on what you think their skill has not on what he withdrew in the last company

@bryan_johnson Not sure how and when, but definitely happy that humanity and science has gotten so ahead that we can actually think of doing these things

[Ayush Kumar @ayushkr459]

@VictoriaBanasz Yes, engaging with big accounts helps - not that I've personally seen it :)

[Ayush Kumar @ayushkr459]

@VictoriaBanasz Exactly, my point - if you could write genuine value driven content - it works on LI, X can't promise that
