Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between AI traffic and traditional search traffic?
AI traffic generates visitors with higher lifetime value than traditional search traffic, and is already responsible for significant percentages of e-commerce sales in some categories.
Why don't many companies appear in AI-generated answers?
Most companies haven't structured their content in a way that AI can actually read and comprehend, which is why they don't show up in AI-generated answers.
