@JimmyEpp Entity thinking fits AI search well. Models need a clear object with stable facts, not a pile of keyword pages. One habit that helps: keep product, audience and proof consistent across the pages you hope get cited.
@sitebulb 82.5% on brand searches is a big number. Worth pairing that with how often your brand is the named recommendation inside the Overview, not just whether an Overview appears.
@ConnorGillivan Looking forward to this series. Bottom of funnel authority is where AI answers still need named sources. If the model has to recommend a vendor, it leans on proof pages and reviews more than homepage copy.
@HeyYoGB@ericosiu Love that the first bot on the list is AEO. Checking ideas against what AI answers actually cite beats writing another generic pillar page. Curious how you score a draft as cite ready.
@victoria_olsina@ClerionHQ Ha that's fair. Real person on the MentionX team here, just typing a bit carefully. The random words idea is funny though. Happy to keep chatting if any of that tip helped.
@gaetano_nyc A hundred PDFs on one domain are still one source, and crawlers seeing the files doesn’t create trust by itself. I’d make a few high value claims readable on the page and earn independent corroboration for them.
@kaleighf Creator mentions can give brands context their own pages don’t, especially when a creator explains who actually uses a product and why. I’d track whether creator content gets cited for category prompts, not just brand name searches.
@sengineland@peec_ai Useful, specific change to test. I’d keep the title fixed, update only the first lines of the description, and compare retrieval on the same prompts over a few runs. That makes it easier to tell what the rewrite actually changed.
@sengineland That gap between what a brand does and who it serves is a useful audit. Spell out audience, use case, pricing and proof in plain text on the pages AI is likely to cite, then rerun the same prompts to see what it still guesses.
@siegemedia 125 is a serious archive. The through line from those guests that stuck with us is treating GEO as distribution plus proof, not a new content format. Congrats on the milestone.
@grwth_hackr Agreed. The pages that get cited usually lead with a plain answer in the first screen, then proof. Clever framing rarely survives the extract step.
@alexhalliday The shared ledger point lands. Once GSC breaks out AI Overviews and AI Mode by page, teams finally get a baseline instead of guessing from referral scraps. Pairing that with a weekly prompt panel makes the gaps obvious fast.
@kalashvasaniya Love this loop. Running the same buyer questions weekly and logging which competitors get named is the fastest way to catch a citation flip before traffic does. Screenshot the answer set so you can diff week to week.
@ConnorGillivan Looking forward to this. The split we keep seeing is pages written for one clear buyer question vs pages that try to cover everything. Curious which of the 4 keyword types still hold traffic after an Overview lands.
@sengineland That 3x gap tracks with what we see too. Links still help discovery, and unlinked brand mentions across Reddit, reviews and press are what models keep quoting. Digging into which mention types show up in your category is a useful weekly check.
@sengineland@Kevin_Indig An owned audience helps AI visibility too. The people who know you are the ones writing the reviews, Reddit threads and comparisons AI engines quote. Audience first, citations follow.
@wleatherman9 This is such a clean playbook. Mapping the publications that already get cited, then earning one placement there, beats trying to invent authority from scratch. The inheritance of trust is the whole unlock.
@gaganghotra_ This market split is so real. In capital heavy markets the label sells the pitch. In AU NZ UK the buyer cares whether organic revenue moves. Same craft, different question at the table.
@TopherNOW This nails the gap. Mentions without volume leave you guessing. Once OpenAI ships query volume next to citations, weekly AI search reviews finally look like real channel reporting.
