Measurement & citations
Track presence in AI Overviews and answer engines, and measure the quality of referrals.
Updated 2026-09-29
Key signals:
- Citation presence: Are your pages cited for key intents? Capture engine, query, cited URL, and snippet.
- Referral quality: Downstream actions like CAD download, spec view, or RFQ initiation.
- Coverage: % of core product families with canonical spec pages and JSON/CSV mirrors.
- Freshness: Mean time to update after spec or compliance changes.
Collect evidence with repeatable spot‑checks and saved queries. When citations point to resellers, improve your canonical references and ID alignment so engines can prefer the source of truth.
