# Which Cited Pages Actually Convert

> Cross-reference the specific pages AI engines are citing against Google Analytics conversion data to see which citations are driving more than just traffic.

Getting cited is the goal, but not every citation is worth the same. This workflow checks the pages Scrunch shows are being cited against what Google Analytics shows those same pages actually do once someone lands on them — traffic, sure, but also whether they convert.

  **Tools used in this workflow**

  | Tool                 | Required? | Used for                                                           |
  | -------------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
  | Scrunch MCP          | Required  | Identifying which owned pages are being cited by AI, and how often |
  | Google Analytics MCP | Required  | Traffic and conversion data for those specific pages               |

  Looking for the broader before/after presence-vs-traffic story instead of a per-page breakdown? Use [Measure AI Visibility's Impact on Traffic](/mcp/workflows/ai-visibility-traffic-impact) — this workflow is the page-level follow-up once you know visibility is trending up.

```text theme={null}
For [brand name] in Scrunch, find which of our AI-cited pages are also converting well, and which are getting cited but going nowhere.

Step 1 — Find the cited pages:
Pull prompt variants filtered to citation_domain = [brand domain]. Sort by observation count. Take the top 15 — these are the specific owned URLs getting cited most, along with which prompts and platforms cite them.

Step 2 — Pull the traffic and conversion data:
For each of those URLs, get from Google Analytics over the last [30/90] days:
- Sessions and users (landing page traffic)
- Conversion rate on [your primary conversion event — e.g. form submit, signup, demo request]
- Bounce rate

Step 3 — Rank the pages into three buckets:
- **Working as intended**: high citation count, healthy traffic, and converting at or above site average
- **Traffic without conversion**: high citation count and traffic, but converting below average — the page is being found but not closing
- **Cited but quiet**: high citation count but low traffic — citations aren't translating into visits yet, worth checking if the cited URL is even the ideal landing experience

Step 4 — Recommend action:
For "traffic without conversion" pages, what's the likely fix — unclear CTA, mismatched intent, missing trust signals? For "cited but quiet" pages, is this expected (top-of-funnel content) or a sign something's blocking click-through?
```

**What you get:** A page-level view of which citations are actually earning their keep — separating the pages worth protecting and replicating from the ones that need a conversion-focused fix, not more visibility.

## Tips

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Setting the right conversion event">
    Be specific in Step 2 about what "conversion" means for your business — a newsletter signup and a demo request are very different bars. If you track multiple conversion events, run this once per event to see if a page performs differently depending on the goal.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why 'cited but quiet' isn't always a problem">
    Citations for awareness-stage, educational content are often "cited but quiet" by design — a comparison page or a glossary entry gets referenced by AI far more than clicked directly. Check the prompt's funnel stage from Step 1 before treating this as a fix-it item.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Feeding this into content prioritization">
    "Traffic without conversion" pages are strong candidates for the Create Content That Gets AI Citations workflow's optimization path — the citation and traffic are already working, so a conversion-focused rewrite has a clear existing audience to improve.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Doing this at the topic level instead of per-page">
    If you have many cited pages, group Step 1's results by tag or topic instead of listing pages individually — you'll get a cleaner signal on which topic areas convert well versus which just generate visibility.
