00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:04.200
Does research content
actually get cited by AI?

00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:05.300
Sometimes.

00:00:05.300 --> 00:00:07.750
But length isn't what decides it.

00:00:08.350 --> 00:00:11.170
In 11 brands' AI top-page lists,

00:00:11.170 --> 00:00:13.430
110 pages were cited.

00:00:13.430 --> 00:00:16.030
37 were the brands' own pages.

00:00:16.030 --> 00:00:18.160
The rest came from other sites.

00:00:19.110 --> 00:00:22.286
So fund research when it
settles a real buyer decision

00:00:22.286 --> 00:00:24.020
with checkable evidence.

00:00:24.670 --> 00:00:26.788
Word count shows effort, not return.

00:00:27.540 --> 00:00:30.220
And keep production separate from proof.

00:00:30.220 --> 00:00:32.560
Across six company libraries,

00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:36.780
64 research pieces carry
over 2,000 source entries.

00:00:36.780 --> 00:00:39.650
That's effort, not citations earned.

00:00:40.290 --> 00:00:41.290
Three steps.

00:00:41.290 --> 00:00:44.740
One: commission against
one buyer decision.

00:00:44.790 --> 00:00:48.140
Two: check the page can
be fetched and read.

00:00:48.170 --> 00:00:51.800
Three: measure citations
and demand separately.

00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:54.450
Write for one decision.

00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:55.750
Then measure.
