Are AI Search Engines & LLMs Diluting Your GSC Traffic Data? 🤖📉 If you’re seeing sudden spikes in impressions with 0 clicks in Google Search Console, you're not alone. When LLMs like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini process user requests, their web-browsing agents run background searches (fan-out queries) using direct site: operators to find and verify official sources. Want to isolate this AI-driven query data in your own accounts? Run this custom Regex filter under Performance > Query > Custom (regex) in GSC: site:|\b(chatgpt|perplexity|claude|copilot|gemini|searchgpt)\b (Make sure to select "Matches regex" in the dropdown) What this highlights: • High-impression, zero-click fan-out searches generated by AI web-browsing bots • Brand searches where users explicitly look for AI summaries or integrations • Clearer CTR data by identifying AI search noise from standard organic traffic Have you checked for AI query footprints across your client sites yet?
