Which plan supports five people? That is a comparison question under this rubric.
Here is a planned Jev workflow: define intent labels, test against human labels, then make one evidence-backed page edit.
Synthetic example. No model run or SEO result is claimed.
A question with your brand name checks recognition. Try a buyer question without it to check discovery.
Use this prompt to sort real enquiries. Run the same questions across AI tools, save answers and citations, then check the differences.
Full method below.
AI mentions a service you no longer offer? Open its citation.
Use this prompt to compare the answer, page and verified facts. Correct outdated content you control. Keep accurate text unchanged. Log other mismatches, then retest.
Prompt and worked method below.
Try this prompt on one service page.
Paste the page text and real customer questions. Pick one missing answer, add it where it belongs, then check every claim against your evidence.
The slides include the exact prompt, inputs and one fix to try.
For Google Search, AEO and GEO are still SEO with better extractability.
The multi-engine work is distribution and measurement on top: which crawler, which citation set, which ledger.
If a pitch needs a new job title to sound expensive, it is usually the old work renamed.
Local results are getting generative answers too.
Maps pack plus an AI Overview in the same scroll means “we rank in maps” is no longer the whole local story.
If you serve a city, watch whether the answer names you, cites you, or only shows the pin.

One great page cannot outrun a weak host.
Google has site-level quality signals. A clean article next to thin, spammy, or mismatched sections still inherits the neighborhood.
Before you scale content, clean what sits on the same hostname.
Blocking Google-Extended does not turn off AI Overviews.
Google-Extended is mainly for Gemini apps and grounding outside classic Search. AI Overviews still ride Googlebot plus your Search settings.
Name the control before you flip it. Wrong switch, wrong outcome.
AI can quote your page and still forget your brand.
If the only clear “who we are” sentence lives on an About page nobody cites, the model has nothing short to lift.
Put one Entity Home up front: who you are, what you do, for whom. Then make sure other sites can repeat that same frame.
@glenngabe@OritSiMu bookmarklets beat another chrome extension install for this. quick fan-out peek while you’re mid-prompt is what actually gets used.
@glenngabe giving rivals click/hover/scroll data is going to make eu seo a different sport. us playbooks that ignore interaction will age out faster there.
@Marie_Haynes same window i’ve been staring at. early sept didn’t look like a classic core on the sites i watch — more like a sudden confidence reset on a subset of hosts.
@glenngabe the quiet updates are worse than the named ones. no blog post, just a week of “is it just us” threads, then recovery charts that still don’t say what actually changed.
@aleyda france as a clean before/after is useful. same launch, different sectors, and organic doesn’t move as one block. the vertical that lost clicks isn’t always the one that lost citations.
@aleyda@Kevin_Indig@bngsrc the mistake i keep seeing is treating citation share like a ranking. it’s a coverage check. impact only shows when you tie it to assisted sessions and closed deals.
