    Bing Now Shows AI Citation Data—Is This the Future of SEO Transparency?

    Bing Webmaster Tools just rolled out the first-ever AI Performance dashboard that shows how often your content gets cited in AI-generated answers. You can see citation counts, trend data, and even the "grounding queries" AI used to retrieve your pages. No other search engine has done this yet.

    Discussion Questions:
    1. Do you think Google will follow suit and add AI citation tracking to Search Console? What would that mean for how we measure content performance?
    2. How are you currently optimizing content for AI-generated answers vs. traditional search rankings? Are the strategies really that different, or is good content just good content?
    3. If AI answers are satisfying users without them clicking through to your site, does earning citations even matter? Or is this just vanity metrics with no traffic impact?
    4. What's your prediction: Will "AI citation rate" become as important as Domain Authority or Page Rank in the next 2–3 years?

    Would love to hear perspectives from anyone already testing AI-focused content strategies or tracking performance in Bing's new dashboard.
