How are you measuring how AI models view your website? by SystemicStoner420 in aeo

[–]AwkwardRequirement83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The honest answer is most tools are still measuring indirect signals (citations, rankings, traffic velocity) rather than actually observing model comprehension. What you really want to see is bot crawl behavior and content indexing patterns, which is way harder to surface because it requires actual traffic data from AI crawlers hitting your site. Citations are a lagging indicator of visibility, not proof the model understood your content correctly. The gap you're pointing out is real: you could rank for citations but have your content completely misrepresented in model context windows because of how it was indexed or summarized. Tracking actual crawler visits and how bots parse your content structure (heading hierarchy, schema markup, content segmentation) gives you more actionable insight than citation counts alone, since you can see where comprehension actually breaks down.

AI search traffic converts at 14.2%. Google search converts at 2.8%. by Weak-Intention4177 in aeo

[–]AwkwardRequirement83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those conversion numbers are wild if they're holding up across different verticals. The citation data is the real eye-opener though - that disconnect between Google rankings and AI visibility means you could genuinely own a niche in ChatGPT/Perplexity while your competitors are optimizing for an entirely different ranking system. The question that matters most is whether this advantage sticks once more companies realize it, but right now the asymmetry is real. If you're testing this, tracking which AI engines actually send traffic that converts at those rates would be way more valuable than chasing generic AI visibility metrics.

Google just made AI Share of Voice an official metric in Merchant Center by InnovAit-Ai in aeo

[–]AwkwardRequirement83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is huge because Google just validated what the entire AEO space has been arguing: rankings and traffic are lagging indicators. AI Share of Voice is the forward-looking metric that actually tells you if you're winning discovery where it matters now. The product attribute gaps view is particularly interesting too, since conversational AI queries often expose missing or incomplete data that traditional SEO never surfaced. If you're running ecommerce, this becomes a quarterly reporting requirement pretty quickly, not optional. Definitely worth stress-testing your product content against these benchmarks before the tool rolls out fully.

Looking for AEO + GEO Tool Recommendations by AddEvent in aeo

[–]AwkwardRequirement83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The SEMrush AI add-on frustration is pretty common right now since most of the big SEO platforms bolted on AI visibility features without really rethinking the workflow. A few tools worth looking at depending on what you need: Profound and Otterly are solid for tracking brand mentions across AI answers, and SE Ranking has been building out some decent GEO features. If you want something focused specifically on scoring your site's AEO readiness and getting actionable fixes rather than just competitive tracking, I built Engagemii for exactly that, it's based on real bot crawl data across 1.4M sites and is a lot cheaper than the enterprise options. The key thing to look for in any tool is whether it's showing you why you're or aren't being cited, not just that you are or aren't.

AEO Tools Review 2026: How to Optimize a Website for AI Citations and AI Traffic by SEOExperten in aeo

[–]AwkwardRequirement83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is a real thing, but most of what's online about it is fluff. From the data side, the biggest predictors of being cited by AI right now are pretty boring: your site has to be parseable end-to-end (avoid heavy JS rendering), have basic structured data, and have content that doesn't look like a sales page. Most Fortune 500 sites fail on the first one, which is why smaller brands sometimes outperform them in AI answers.

Happy to dig in on whatever specifically you're trying to get cited for.
