Any Tests / Experiments about Ranking of AI Content in 2026?

Hello folks To continue the discussion u/ DanyrWithCheese started here from a couple of days back on the ranking of AI content -- There broadly seems to be two categories of opinions: AI content on your website will completely wreck you People who take the "Google Search's guidance about AI-generated content" at face value -- ie. "Rewarding high-quality content, however it is produced" I think reality is somewhere in between 1-2 (like most things SEO) but I'm not sure does it tend towards 1 or 2. Has anyone here ran any tests around the ranking of AI content? I'm looking for experiments along the lines of AI content vs Human content websites, keeping all else same. submitted by /u/distant_gradient [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/IKCpNGy

Strange pornography search queries appearing in GSC.

Hi there, As stated in the title since January I have been getting weird results show up in Google Search Console under the queries used to find my site. Mostly East Indian and Middle Eastern pornography phrases. And some of the queries are driving up to 700 clicks / visits a month. I'm 110% sure the site hasn't been hacked. From what I can see, although my back links are pretty toxic, there's no porn links in there. Any ideas what's going on? submitted by /u/jbiggs1984 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/FA34xXZ

Which Open-Source CRM actually handles AI-Indexing and AEO properly?

I’m tired of paying the "HubSpot Tax" for a bloated UI and locked-down database. I’ve been architecting custom GTM engines for B2B startups, and I’m hitting a wall with how traditional CRMs handle content and search-ability. I’ve played with Strapi for headless needs, but I’m looking for a CMS that is actually built for the AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) era. I need something where the data structure doesn't just sit in a silo but is ready for LLM-scraping and AI search ability from the jump. The Question: Are you finding better SEO/Discovery results by using a headless CMS (like Strapi) as your CRM, or is that a recipe for technical debt? I’m looking for answers from people who have actually pushed code or managed a 10k+ monthly traffic through these systems. submitted by /u/Forward_Tackle_6487 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/EPCSaRH

Congrats emails from Google Search Console

I recently started SEO efforts on one of my sites and added google search console. I just got an email from Google with the subject line "Congrats on reaching 5 clicks in 28 days!". I have another older site that does better, but I don't recall ever getting any emails about it. Personally, I don't think 5 clicks in 28 days is much of an accomplishment, but I was just curious what triggers these emails from Google? If it's just some communication setting I have turned on in Google somewhere, and they send the emails to everyone, it probably doesn't mean much. But if it's an indication that I'm on the right track, that would be nice to know - at least it means my efforts aren't being wasted. submitted by /u/LiamAva123 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/PtVH6GX

Grokipedia backlink impact on site authority?

I have a commercial intent law firm website with a informational intent news/blog with a ton of articles in legal issues and advice, FAQ, etc. About a dozen of these articles were picked up and cited by Grokipedia. What impact do these backlinks have on authority and driving traffic? I am assuming they are no-follow, like wikipedia, correct? Is Grokipedia something I should be targeting or utilizing to build authority? submitted by /u/addicted2soysauce [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/jxqgoX1

Switching from Wix Google Ads to Google Ads directly.

Could somebody help please? I recently made a website for a family member using Wix, and opted to advertise on Google Ads through the Wix platform itself. As it cost more to do the above, I switched over to making a Google Ads campaign directly through Google instead of the Wix platform. Currently looking at Google Business Profile, in the "Web Address" field, within the link is:- "utm_source=google&utm_medium= wix_google_business_profile &utm_campaign=xxx" I'm scared that this is the old link and may be affecting the seo, should I be changing this or is it normal? tia submitted by /u/Zaleznikov [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/rhvNGDB
