GEO News is the public reporting section of AIVSRank , published at geonews.aivsrank.com . It is written for practitioners and for readers who need a sourced account of the same changes.

Coverage has two parts: classic search (crawling, indexing, ranking, search features, and Search Console) and generative-engine visibility (Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Bing Copilot, ChatGPT Search, and Perplexity).

Language

English is the default edition and is published at the site root. Simplified Chinese is a separate edition under /zh/, with its own URLs and text. The language control in the masthead opens the translation of the current page. If that translation does not exist, it opens the home page of the other language.

Chinese and Baidu sources are out of scope for both editions.

Confidence

Each issue and each item carries a confidence value. The allowed values, including capitalization and spacing, are:

ValueMeaning

The issue label is the lowest label among that issue’s items. One unconfirmed item marks the issue Unconfirmed.

Bylines
