  "question": "How do I diagnose why Gemini is not using our content?",
  "description": "Diagnose why Gemini is not using your content by analyzing crawler accessibility, citation gaps, and content relevance using Trakkr's platform monitoring tools.",
  "summary": "To diagnose Gemini content visibility issues, evaluate whether your pages are being crawled, indexed, or prioritized by the model. Use Trakkr to identify citation gaps and technical barriers preventing your brand from appearing in AI-generated answers.",
  "answer": "Diagnosing why Gemini is not using your content requires a two-pronged approach focusing on technical accessibility and content relevance. First, verify that Google's AI systems can successfully crawl and parse your site architecture. Second, use Trakkr to monitor specific buyer-style prompts to determine if your brand is being ignored or simply outranked by more authoritative sources. By tracking citation rates and competitor positioning, you can isolate whether the issue stems from a lack of technical indexing or a failure to provide the direct, machine-readable answers that Gemini prioritizes in its output. Consistent monitoring allows you to adjust your strategy based on actual model behavior rather than assumptions.",
