Force AI summaries to send traffic back to your articles
UK news publishers lose substantial click-through traffic and advertising revenue when Google’s AI summaries display their content without driving visitors to original articles.
SourceLinkr analyzes news articles and automatically generates specialized schema markup and semantic adjustments that compel Google AI Overviews to include direct branded links and attributions. Publishers connect their CMS or upload content, receive optimized markup and suggested intro rewrites, then publish with confidence that AI summaries will drive click-throughs instead of stealing them.
