What GEO / AEO practitioners can learn from Josh Blyskal
- Citations are volatile: for the same query, sources can differ sharply across time and platforms — single snapshots mislead, so monitor continuously.
- Trust signals gate inclusion: E-E-A-T, author/source credibility and factual consistency increasingly act as the threshold for being cited.
- Make monitoring systematic: turn core questions, competitors and brand terms into fixed probes you run on a schedule and diff over time.
