I Made My Website Charge AI Agents A Penny Per Page, Then I Watched Claude Pay It (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Google is paying some publishers when their content helps generate its AI answers. Barry Schwartz covered it at Search Engine Roundtable on September 14, following Digiday’s report that morning. Google confirmed the program to Digiday. It’s called the AI contribution pilot. Publishers who accept the terms get an earnings figure in Search Console each month. What they don’t get is a breakdown of how Google calculated it. Google pays when it decides a page contributed significantly to an answer wh
ChatGPT Searches Individual Subreddits By Name (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Here is a search line ChatGPT wrote for itself this week, straight out of the traffic. Look at the path. It reads r/whatnotapp, one subreddit, chosen by name before anything was fetched. In the teardown I published on the 21st, I documented ChatGPT asking for Reddit at the domain level, reddit.com in the targeting slot with a 365-day window. The model picked the community, not the site, and gave it 3,650 days, a decade of threads. It came back with 48 Reddit threads out of 71 results in that con
ChatGPT Rebuilt Its Search Tool, I Read The New Language It Speaks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On August 16, when ChatGPT ran a web search for me, the tool call was JSON. On August 20, I asked the same question on the same account. The tool call now looks like this. Somewhere in those four days, OpenAI replaced the JSON with a compact query language of its own. And search_queries, the metadata field that mirrored the fan-out, the field my last article told you to read and the field FanoutFox parses, is gone from the payload entirely. This is Part 4 of the series that started with how Chat
How To Track Google AI Mode Traffic In Search Console (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On June 3, 2026, Google introduced Search Generative AI performance reports in Search Console, dedicated views of impressions within generative AI features on Search, such as AI Overviews and AI Mode. At last, there’s official AI Overviews reporting showing how often those features involve your pages. What it doesn’t include is the queries behind the AI activity, and the report is UI only. I re-verified on my own property on 11 August 2026 that neither the Search Analytics API nor the BigQuery b
The AI Conversations Leaking Into Your Search Console (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In early August, an SEO called Anastasia Kourou noticed queries in her Search Console report that didn’t look like searches: “Yes.” “Yes go on.” “Yes, pricing.” She posted a screenshot and asked John Mueller whether Search Console was tracking what people say to AI. Search Console includes AI Overviews and AI Mode data in the general performance report, and Google’s documentation explains the mechanism. A follow-up question inside AI Mode counts as a brand new query, and everything in the respon
