Cloudflare quietly switched on default AI-crawler blocking. Here's what changed, who got locked out of AI search, and the exact steps I use to audit a site's AI visibility.
Most agentic SEO writing is pure speculation. I actually pointed Claude Computer Use, ChatGPT Agent, and Comet at five client sites and watched what broke. Here is the framework I wish I had when I started, plus the Agent Accessibility Audit you can steal.
ChatGPT Search runs on Bing's index. So does Copilot, DuckDuckGo, and Yahoo. If Bing can't find your page, neither can the AI engines your customers now use. Here's the setup I run on every client site in 2026.
I run a link-building agency. Writing this feels like a plumber telling you to buy fewer pipes. But the Ahrefs 75,000-brand study and the 2024 Google Search leak are pointing at the same uncomfortable truth: unlinked brand mentions are now doing more for rankings than most of the backlinks I sell.
Reddit pulls 24% of Perplexity citations and roughly 21% of Google AI Overviews citations. I've spent the last six months testing what actually gets cited. Here is the framework, the subreddits, the comment format, and the honest downsides.
YouTube now drives roughly 20% of citations across AI platforms, and 29.5% of Google AI Overview citations specifically. I spent three months testing what actually gets pulled into AI answers, and titles are not it. Transcripts, chapters and description structure are doing the heavy lifting.
The March 2026 spam update rolled out in under 20 hours, the fastest in Google history. Three days later, a core update landed. Here is what is happening, what it means, and what to do right now.

The AI content detection debate is everywhere. After almost a decade of watching Google updates come and go, here is what I have learned about what Google actually penalises and what it does not.

Patient reviews are one of the top 3 local ranking factors. Here is how medical practices build a review generation system that works without making anyone uncomfortable.
Most medical websites have the wrong content. Here is the content framework I use for healthcare clients: what pages to build, what topics to write about, and how to meet Google YMYL standards.
YMYL is not a penalty. It is a quality bar. If your website covers health, finance, or safety topics, Google applies stricter evaluation criteria. Here is exactly what that means and how to meet the standard.
