I’ve been noticing more talk around AI Citation Optimization lately basically getting your brand or content cited inside AI-generated answers instead of just ranking on traditional search. It feels like a shift from just “being found” to actually being referenced by AI tools like ChatGPT or Perplexity. Curious what people are seeing in real-world use. Has anyone here actually seen results from AI Citation Optimization? Things like increased traffic, better brand visibility, or even conversions tied to AI mentions? Also wondering if anyone has worked with agencies like SearchTides in this space and what your experience has been. Trying to understand: What’s actually working vs what’s just hype How AI Citation Optimization fits alongside traditional SEO Whether AI citations are already influencing user decisions in a meaningful way Would really appreciate hearing honest experiences good or bad. submitted by /u/oakforest12341
