Useful research preserves wording, location, time and the environment that produced the evidence. Repeat observations before drawing conclusions from a change.
Supporting reading
Earlier educational articles remain available as context: SEO for AI search, AEO vs GEO, and optimizing a website for AI search. These articles are not measurements from the new retrieval dataset.
Current research limits
No representative panel or industry benchmark is claimed. Source patterns in your report describe your collected sample. Read the methodology before comparing results.
