A SaaS founder I worked with pulled up her analytics mid-call and pointed at the country breakdown: eighteen percent of last month’s traffic was coming from Germany, Brazil, and France, and none of it was converting anywhere near as well as her US and UK segments. Her question was simple — should we translate the … Read more
Google’s own July 2026 guide to generative AI search directly contradicts the llms.txt, content-chunking, and AI-rewrite advice flooding the GEO/AEO space. Here’s what it actually says.
