Why Is Nobody Visiting Your Website Anymore?
Your website appears in Google – but people aren't clicking. Why? In this episode, Robo discovers how AI summaries and searches without result clicks can change the journey from a question to a website. We explain what the research actually shows, why not every traffic drop is caused by AI, and how website owners can distinguish visibility, visits, and real business results. Featuring research from SparkToro and Similarweb, Pew Research Center, and Google's published guidance. All business examples are fictional. Research dates and geographic scope are shown on screen.
In under a minute
