Today, businesses face a unique challenge: despite maintaining strong search engine rankings, website traffic is declining. This phenomenon is mainly due to the rise of AI-driven search engines, zero-click searches, and social media platforms that provide immediate answers directly on search results pages.

Understanding their impact helps organizations stay compliant while maintaining operational efficiency and customer trust.
