This isn’t some magical future – it’s happening now.

The impact of zero-click search include less website traffic because traditionally marketers relied on users clicking through search results to reach their websites. With answers directly on search pages, that traffic can dry up, impacting brand awareness and conversions. It becomes harder to track how users find your brand. Google will further integrate AI into its search engine result page. The impact on SEO performance might result with a decline of the clickthrough rate by well over 50%.
