Your Clicks vs AI Overviews
Defend the traffic threatened by Google's AI answers
Open the page in the appThe principle
On some of your queries, Google's AI Overview answers directly at the top. If you're cited there, your clicks are 'protected'. If the AI answers WITHOUT citing you, those clicks are 'to defend'.
Reading the card
- Clicks to defend: your current clicks on queries where the AI Overview doesn't cite you — with the sites cited instead.
- Protected clicks: you're cited where the AI answers.
- Analyze these queries: live-checks your top uncovered GSC queries (kept 30 days; tracked keywords re-checked weekly).
- Tabs: each tab's count matches exactly the rows it lists. « All » counts the analysed queries; those not yet checked have their own tab.
How to defend a click
- Add a direct 40-60 word answer at the top of the ranking page.
- Inject FAQPage schema via the Schema Injector.
- Check the text with the content workshop's Evaluator.
