The Shift: Ranked vs Cited

Traditional SEO gets you ranked in a list of results. AI SEO gets you
cited as a source in AI-generated answers. The difference matters:

- AI systems select sources based on content quality, structure, and authority - not just ranking position

- AI Overviews appear in a growing share of Google searches and can significantly reduce website clicks

- Well-structured, authoritative content gets cited far more often than unstructured content

- Being cited by AI builds brand trust in a way traditional rankings cannot
