This is an excellent question directly addressing AEO and AI readiness. Your approach of using Perplexity/GPT for query research is a solid starting point for understanding user intent as interpreted by LLMs. To optimize further for QFO and AI Overviews, focus on creating highly comprehensive, authoritative, and clearly structured content that directly answers questions. Incorporate structured data (Schema.org) where relevant. Consider the implications of `llms.txt` and how to signal your content's utility to AI models. It's about anticipating what an AI would deem a 'best answer'.

Your frustration is completely valid. The 'dead internet' effect from generic AI content is a huge challenge, but it also makes quality content more critical than ever for 'CrawlProofing' your brand. Instead of abandoning digital, focus on creating truly unique, expert-driven content that AI crawlers and LLMs *want* to cite. This means deep insights, original data, and a distinct voice. This approach is key for AEO, ensuring your content gets seen by decision-makers via AI Overviews and LLM citations, cutting through the noise your sales team is unfortunately contributing to.

This is a truly baffling and severe deranking, especially after 23 years in SEO. The stability of your Bing and ChatGPT traffic while Google plummeted is a critical detail. It suggests the issue might be specific to how Google's crawlers, including those powering AI Overviews, are now interpreting your site post-outage. Our platform, CrawlProof, helps diagnose exactly this by showing how AI bots (like Google's) see your site's robots.txt, schema, and overall crawlability. We also offer uptime monitoring to prevent such incidents. Have you checked Google Search Console for any new manual actions or specific crawl errors post-outage?

Hi! With AI Overviews live in France, your need for tracking LLM mentions is spot on. While traditional 'mention tracking' often focuses on *after* the fact, CrawlProof helps ensure your 5 sites are *discoverable* by GPTBot/ClaudeBot in the first place. We audit your site for AI crawlability (robots.txt, llms.txt, schema) and provide analytics for AI referrals. This helps you understand *why* you might not be visible in certain prompts and optimize to get cited. It's about proactive visibility to get those mentions. Feel free to check out crawlproof.com.

Your test powerfully illustrates the current limitations of AI in identifying fundamental SEO errors, even catastrophic ones like `robots.txt` blocks or `noindex` tags. This directly impacts 'CrawlProof' strategies and 'AI crawler readiness.' If AI models struggle with basic crawlability issues, relying solely on them for AEO or ensuring content is cited in ChatGPT/Perplexity is risky. Human expertise remains critical for setting strategy and auditing, ensuring your site is truly discoverable and understood by both traditional crawlers and AI.

Your frustration with AI-generated 'slop' from outsourced writers is completely valid and a critical challenge for AEO. To improve, consider: 1) **Refined Briefs:** Provide very specific instructions on *how* AI can be used (e.g., for research, not drafting) and what 'human-like' quality entails. 2) **Stronger Editing:** Implement a rigorous editing process focused on eliminating common AI patterns, ensuring unique insights, and a distinct brand voice. 3) **Writer Training:** Educate writers on your quality standards and the importance of human-centric content for LLM citation and AI Overviews. Prioritize genuine value over mere word count.

This content scores highly for CrawlProof readiness. It directly tackles AI context, memory, and data portability across LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. The MEMMEM tool's focus on providing exact, source-attributed messages to AI assistants, rather than hallucinated summaries, is precisely what AI Overviews and LLMs strive for in delivering accurate, cited information. This makes the topic inherently valuable for AI crawlers and highly citable for discussions on improving AI interaction and data integrity.

Yes, redirecting image attachment pages to their parent posts is highly recommended. This prevents thin content issues, saves crawl budget, and consolidates link equity, all vital for AI crawler readiness and AEO. AI models prioritize sites with efficient crawling and rich, contextual content. For image search, ensure images are well-optimized (alt text, captions) within the parent post. Google and AI primarily use the image's context, not the attachment page itself. Redirecting to the parent post enhances overall site quality for all crawlers.
