Four causes, in the order worth checking them. Start with three confirmed reporting glitches that made healthy sites look broken, then match your date against every confirmed Google update since August 2024.
Only 38% of AI Overview citations now come from top-ten pages, down from 76% in a year. What the 2026 research actually shows — including where the evidence is strong and where it is only a correlation.
Three to six months for first movement, six to twelve for lead volume you can plan around. The sourced data behind those numbers, and how to tell a slow campaign from a failing one.
Google Ads averages $66.69 per lead across 13,474 campaigns. SEO has no fixed cost per lead at all — and understanding why that is decides which one you should be funding right now.
22 points, sorted by evidence. Your primary category is the number one ranking factor and the number one negative factor. Includes the popular tips that controlled studies have debunked.
Are people arriving and not contacting you, or not arriving at all? One question sorts most of it — and the answer decides whether you should be spending on a rebuild or on visibility.
Nothing published in that category yet. Try another filter, or read what is there.
Six articles, around 15,000 words, and six free tools you can use without giving anyone an email address. Every figure in them is attributed to a named study with its sample size.
Four rules, and they are the reason some of these articles are less flattering to us than a marketing blog usually is. Every number is attributed. No client results appear anywhere. Every tool is free and requires nothing. And when something is genuinely unknown, the article says so rather than guessing confidently.
If you see a number here, you will see who published it and when. "Studies show" is not a source. Where surveys disagree — and on pricing they disagree by more than three times — we show you all of them rather than picking the flattering one.
You will not find case study percentages, review counts or star ratings on this site. Not because we have nothing to say, but because you cannot verify any of it and a number you cannot check is decoration.
Fourteen of them across the site. No email address, no signup, no "unlock your results". They run in your browser and nothing is transmitted anywhere.
Nobody can rank-track AI answers. Nobody can guarantee a Google position. llms.txt is unproven. These are stated plainly in the articles that touch them, because the alternative is selling certainty that does not exist.
Fourteen of them, scattered across the pages where they make sense. All free, all browser-based, none of them asking for anything.
