Content Authority Analysis

Key Insight: A citation indicates a source the AI consulted, not necessarily a source that drove the recommendation. When a brand's website is cited but that brand doesn't win, it reveals a gap between brand awareness and content authority.

Content Conversion Rate = When a brand's owned domain is cited in a response, how often is that brand featured as the #1 recommendation?
