An AI Overview now appears on about 43% of US searches. A year ago it was 15%. Pew found clicks drop from 15% to 8% when a summary appears — and that was measured when the surface was a third the size. The click isn't coming back. The mention still works.

Two consequences worth acting on: track AI Overviews and AI Mode as separate engines (they retrieve and cite differently), and score visibility on mention and citation rate, not referral sessions. elmohq.com/blog/ai-overviews…

Every AI visibility tool sends prompts with no history. New research: the final prompt in a real conversation carries a median 36% of what the user actually said. Half the time a stated constraint (budget, location, a ruled-out competitor) never appears in it.

Getting Elmo to show up for general AEO / GEO prompts is much more difficult, but that little blip is a start!

Do llms.txt files matter for AEO?

You can find relevant GitHub topics for your project by seeing which pages are cited by prompts related to your project. I just added the following topics for @TryElmo which were missing but cited by AI search: - ai-seo - generative-engine-optimization - ai-engine-optimization - geo-optimization
