Comparing current citation counts against historical benchmarks helps you determine if a decline is a temporary anomaly or a sustained trend that requires immediate intervention from your content or technical teams. Sorting your results by the delta between current and past performance will surface the pages with the largest negative impact. Reviewing the specific answer engine responses associated with these pages is essential to understand the context of the decline and how the AI model is currently framing your brand. - Compare current citation counts against historical benchmarks to identify significant performance drops - Sort results by delta to surface pages with the largest negative impact on visibility - Review specific answer engine responses to understand the context behind the citation loss - Identify patterns in the content that might be causing the model to favor other sources ## Taking Action on Citation Gaps Once you have identified the specific author pages that have lost the most citations, you can begin the recovery process. This involves auditing your content to ensure it meets the technical and narrative requirements that AI models prioritize when generating answers for users. After implementing your updates, you should continue to monitor these pages to track their recovery. Consistent monitoring allows you to see if your changes successfully influence the AI model to resume citing your content, ensuring that your brand maintains its authority and visibility in the long term. - Audit content formatting and technical accessibility for the identified author pages - Review narrative positioning to ensure alignment with current AI model preferences - Implement content updates based on the insights gathered from the answer engine responses - Monitor future citation recovery after implementing these specific content and technical updates ## FAQ ### How does Trakkr differentiate between author pages and other content types?
