For users, that\u2019s great. For search engines? Not so much.<\/p>\n<p>When users get everything they need in an AI box at the top of the results page, they\u2019re less likely to scroll, click ads, or visit other sites. That means less revenue for Google, Microsoft, and everyone in between.<\/p>\n<p>To fix that, Bing (and Google) are building in ways to steer users back into the traditional search experience. Instead of linking AI answers to high-authority sources or direct pages, they\u2019re now using them as bait to push users toward additional queries that often include paid ads or promotional content.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"its-not-just-annoying%e2%80%94its-dangerous\"><\/span><b>It\u2019s Not Just Annoying\u2014It\u2019s Dangerous<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Looping users back to search results instead of linking to a real source undermines trust. It blurs the line between answer and suggestion, between information and promotion.<\/p>\n<p>As a user, this means you&#8217;re doing more work for less clarity. As a content creator or journalist, it means fewer clicks to your site\u2014fewer people reading your work, subscribing to your newsletter, or engaging with your content. It\u2019s a quiet chokehold on independent publishing.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"its-brilliant-ux-disguised-as-helpfulness\"><\/span><b>It\u2019s Brilliant UX Disguised as Helpfulness<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>From a user experience standpoint, these AI answers feel slick. They load fast, look clean, and appear helpful. But that\u2019s the point. They are designed to feel complete while subtly guiding your behavior in ways that benefit the platform\u2014not you.<\/p>\n<p>Clicking an answer should bring you to the best explanation, not a monetized detour. But in this new model, every click is rerouted through a search engine\u2019s algorithm. You\u2019re being steered, not informed.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-you-can-do-to-stay-in-control\"><\/span><b>What You Can Do to Stay in Control<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We can\u2019t change Bing or Google, but we can change how we use them. Here\u2019s how to take back control:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Get used to scrolling past AI snippets.<\/b> Treat them as previews, not full answers.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Look for URLs, dates, and real author names.<\/b> If you don\u2019t see them, don\u2019t trust it.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Bookmark your go-to information sources.<\/b> Relying solely on search results is no longer reliable.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Support independent content.<\/b> Share it, cite it, subscribe to it\u2014because it\u2019s getting harder for creators to survive in this looped search world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"a-note-to-publishers-and-seo-pros\"><\/span><b>A Note to Publishers and SEO Pros<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you rely on search traffic, this is your wake-up call. Optimize for context, not just keywords. Focus on earning trust with original reporting, expert contributors, and resources that give users more than AI summaries ever could.<\/p>\n<p>This shift means fewer casual visitors but a higher premium on loyalty. So, build email lists, create high-value downloads, launch communities\u2014anything that moves people from search to subscription.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"key-takeaways\"><\/span><b>Key Takeaways<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Bing\u2019s AI snippets now link to more search results, not to external sites.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">This mirrors Google\u2019s approach with AI Overviews doing the same thing.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">The goal is to increase ad revenue, as AI answers are hard to monetize directly.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Users may experience longer, more frustrating search journeys, with more ads and fewer clear answers.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Publishers risk losing traffic, making it harder for quality content to get discovered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft has updated Bing\u2019s AI answer snippets to link back to more search results instead of external sources.\u00a0 SEO expert Khushal Bherwani spotted the change and posted a video clip on X showing Bing\u2019s carousel-style snippets behaving more like gateways to additional search queries.
