  "question": "How do I solve post-migration citation drops in AI visibility?",
  "description": "Solve post-migration citation drops by auditing AI crawler access, verifying URL redirects, and using citation intelligence to restore your brand's AI visibility.",
  "summary": "Post-migration citation drops often stem from broken redirects or blocked AI crawlers. Recover your brand's AI visibility by auditing technical infrastructure and monitoring citation patterns across major platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity.",
  "answer": "To resolve post-migration citation drops, you must first verify that your new URL structure is accessible to AI crawlers. Use technical diagnostics to ensure that all 301 redirects are functioning correctly and that your site's machine-readable files, such as llms.txt, are updated to reflect the new architecture. Once technical access is confirmed, leverage citation intelligence to track whether specific high-value pages are being indexed by answer engines. Continuous monitoring of prompt sets will help you identify if your brand is appearing in relevant contexts, allowing you to adjust your content strategy to regain lost visibility across platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI Overviews.",
