Google AI Mode just cited me.

I searched "adeshina seo audit reports" and Google’s AI Overview directly referenced my framework for what a modern SEO audit must cover.

That's not a flex. It's a signal.

The old audit model is dead. Keyword density and basic backlink counts don't cut it anymore.

A real audit in 2026 has to focus on three critical pillars:

• Standard SEO: the foundational Google ranking factors • AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation): reports, getting cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI search engines • Technical Health for AI: ensuring search bots and AI models can crawl your site cleanly

The shift is simple: ranking isn't enough. You have to be citable.

If your audit process hasn't changed in the last two years, it's already outdated.
