With Google rolling out Search Generative Experience (SGE), I’m curious how is it impacting?

it's game-changing or traffic-killing. What is next?

Let's share your point of view

Can you track it?

Our search impressions have gone up roughly 15,000 per day and gained an extra 0.2% on CTR but it's hard to judge if that's connected I would say its more to do with the amount of content we are pumping out to our hub more than anything.

Not tracking it directly myself. Just Want to know about how it works for people out there.

I just meant can't you (as in anyone) track the effect accurately for loss or spike in traffic.

It's always going to be a 50-50 call, in terms of some will be featured by the AI and maybe CTR and traffic goes up. Others will be featured and see a decline in CTR and traffic.

Personally I think at the moment the way to combat it is to become featured BUT then offer a follow-through or a tool, give the user a reason to click. If they just want to know how many rolls are in a baker's dozen, and the AI give the user the answer 13 and its referring to your site why would the user need to click?
