Almost every SEO deck has the same slide: CTR by position, #1 gets ~30%. But two sites in the same spot can get very different CTRs. Sometimes #1 sits below ads, a shopping block and an AI answer. 3 questions to ask before you trust that curve πŸ‘‡

1. Were branded queries included? 2. Which SERP features were on those pages? 3. Which sites were sampled, and how? Rather see your own numbers than an average? SEOInsider is free and runs on DataForSEO APIs: l.dataforseo.com/4s49Brn πŸ’¬ Which benchmark do you still trust?

Everyone says Reddit is the way into AI answers. We checked 40 SEO brands. β†’ Reddit was cited in 17.1% of their Google AI Overview answers β†’ Reddit footprint vs AI visibility: 0.66 correlation Looks convincing. Then we controlled for brand size πŸ‘‡

The correlation dropped to 0.04. That doesn't mean Reddit doesn't work: 40 SEO brands, AI Overviews, US/EN, correlation only. But it's worth 3 checks before you budget for Reddit. πŸ’¬ Is AI visibility why you invest in Reddit, or something else?

β†’ Top 3: in 4 of 5 pairs, the traffic leader had 2–6Γ— the share of Top 3 keywords β†’ Branded search: ~77% vs ~58% of traffic in one pair A ranking gap tells you who's ahead, not why. What do you check first when a competitor pulls ahead?

We left the last two blank. They depend on your team, setup, and how often interfaces, sessions, or answer formats change. ($44–49 is at list prices.) Also check each platform's rules on automated access. πŸ’¬ How do you collect AI answers today: API, in-house, or both?

What's your brand's AI visibility? We measured one brand across 146 AI answers: β†’ named in the answer: 58% β†’ site cited as a source: 36% β†’ share of all cited sources: 5.7% Same brand. Same answers. Three different numbersπŸ‘‡

And the rules matter. Count only the main site, without subdomains like help. or community., and 36% drops to 14%. One brand was named in 10 answers but cited in 33. Mentions, citations or share of sources: what does your AI visibility report track?

Ranking in Google's Top 10 doesn't mean you're in the AI answer. We compared Google's Top 10 with the AI answer for 20 real searches: β†’ on average, ~1 in 3 Top 10 domains showed up β†’ Perplexity: ~1 in 2 β†’ ChatGPT: ~1 in 6

The ChatGPT caveat: it searched the web in only 11 of 20 cases. The other 9, it answered mostly from memory. 20 searches, one snapshot. But rankings alone don't show AI visibility. Are you tracking AI visibility separately yet?
