That’s a solid example - makes sense.
Feels like it’s less about just backlinks now and more about building real authority across trusted sources so AI can recognize and pick you consistently.
Yes, this sometimes happens to our website.
Most of our keywords appear in the AI Overview, which feels great.
However, sometimes the same thing happens as you mentioned-it appears in the AI Overview but doesn’t show up even in the top 10 SERP results, and that’s really bad.
As per my...
Yeah, you’re right - this shift is already happening. AI results are definitely eating into traditional clicks.
But I think it’s more of an evolution than a loss. Rankings alone won’t be enough anymore - brand visibility and being picked up in AI responses will matter just as much.
It feels like search is changing faster than ever. If people start getting direct answers from AI tools instead of clicking multiple search results, the way brands approach SEO will probably need to evolve too.
Maybe it will be less about just ranking pages and more about becoming a trusted...
I wouldn’t say AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) has replaced basic SEO - but it’s definitely becoming more important alongside it.
Traditional SEO helps you rank on search engines, while AEO focuses on getting featured in direct answers, AI summaries, and voice search results. With AI-driven...
From what I’ve seen, homepage links still help, but not like before.
They can give a small boost, especially if the site is strong. But I don’t see big ranking jumps from them anymore.
Links placed inside relevant articles seem to work better now. When the content matches your topic, the...
I don’t think SEO is dead honestly.
It’s just changing. Google is still huge and people still search every day. That’s not going away. But yes, AI tools like ChatGPT are becoming another way people discover info.
I see it more like an evolution, not a replacement.
The real shift is less about...
In 2026 AI is definitely a game changer. But it is not able to replace the creators.
AI is definitely making things faster and more scalable - especially for editing, captions, and repurposing content. But I think creativity, storytelling, and authenticity will still be the real...
From my experience, impressions slow down first most of the time.
Rankings may still look okay, but Google doesn’t show your pages for new searches as much.
After that, internal pages stop growing.
New pages don’t get much traffic and old ones don’t pick up new keywords.
Crawl changes usually...
Hey everyone,
I wanted to share something interesting I have been testing over the past few weeks. Since Google started showing AI Overviews more often, I’ve been curious whether they actually affect organic clicks - especially for blogs that already rank on page 1.
Test Setup:

SEO is unpredictable now, so its smart to diversify:
Pinterest → great for long-lasting, visual traffic
Quora → builds authority and steady clicks
Reddit → niche traffic if you share real value (don't use this platform to promote your brand, as they banned instantly for that.)
LinkedIn →...
That's a solid question and honestly, something more people should be thinking about. Relying only on Google traffic can be risky, so it’s smart that you need to explore other options.
Here are a few things that really work outside of Google:
