ANSWERS

How much of my traffic already comes from AI?

You can measure the identifiable portion. Report on session source/medium over a fixed date range, match sessions from known AI domains, then divide identified sessions by total sessions for a share. Missing attribution on some visits and no-click influence keep that share short of a full total. ye5's GEO Web audit checks access and readiness — whether machines can reach and read your pages — not traffic.

How do you measure identifiable AI referral traffic?

Open your analytics session report and group by session source/medium. Set a fixed date range so the comparison holds. Match the sources against known AI domains and keep those sessions together. Use the AI domains present in your own report, such as chatgpt.com and perplexity.ai. Divide the identified sessions by total sessions for the period. That percentage is your identifiable AI referral share, measured from data you already hold. This measurement sits inside the wider practice of GEO.

The identifiable share is not the full total.

—Some AI visits arrive without usable attribution, so they never join the identified group.
—No-click influence means an AI answer can shape a decision without producing any visit.
—Bot requests have to be separated from human sessions before the share means anything.
—Google Search Console Web totals include AI features but do not isolate them.

Analytics session reports and server logs measure different things.

Session reports and server logs count two different populations, and each needs its own cleanup before the numbers mean anything.

—Session reports can contain unwanted automated activity, so use available bot filtering and review anomalies.
—Server or CDN logs also record ordinary visitors, so isolate verified crawler requests before counting them.
—Do not add crawler requests to referral sessions.

What can you verify beyond the traffic number?

A referral share measures visits that already happened. It says nothing about whether your pages can be reached, parsed, and quoted in the first place. That question is separate, and it is checkable. ye5's GEO Web audit runs a check of machine access — what automated readers can and cannot reach — at template level, so the fixes scale across the site.

FAQ

How do I calculate my AI referral share?

Take a fixed date range, filter the session source/medium report to known AI domains, then divide those identified sessions by total sessions for the same period. The result is the share of visits you can attribute to AI assistants (see: How do I measure my brand's AI visibility?).

Why is the measured figure a floor rather than a total?

Some AI-driven visits arrive without usable attribution, so they fall outside the identified group. No-click influence adds more: an AI answer can decide a purchase without ever sending a visit. The number you calculate sits under the real influence.

Can Google Search Console give me an AI-only number?

No. Search Console Web totals include traffic from Google's AI features, but they do not isolate it into its own line. You can watch the overall trend, though you cannot pull an AI-only figure from that report (see: How do I check which AI bots visit my site?).
