AI search SEO is breaking family law traffic models. Rankings up, traffic down. Here's what the data shows and how to fix it.
The decoupling started in September 2024. Impressions climbing, clicks tanking. Firms with thin content, those "divorce lawyer + city" page variants, got crushed.
Firms building topical authority and pairing video with natural language content are winning AI overview citations and direct site visits.
So in this episode, we’ll break down the Google Search Console diagnostic, the tools to check your AI visibility across ChatGPT and Perplexity, and how to measure visibility in this new landscape.
The gap isn't your SEO strategy. It's whether you built for zero-click searches and AI overviews from the start.
