AIO & Content Update Performance Dashboard

Report Date: March 9, 2026 (Re-run #3 — Corrected GA4 to form_submit only, baselines re-verified) Pages Updated: 9 Update Window: February 25 – March 4, 2026 Baseline Period: ~Jan 22 – Feb 26, 2026 (28 days per page) Current Period: Feb 9 – Mar 8, 2026 (28 days) Days Since Publish: 5–12 days post-update

What's New in This Version

GA4 conversions corrected to use form_submit event only — previous versions used the aggregate keyEvents metric which inflated numbers with Hero_Button_Click, CTA_Click_Inline_PageContent, and other engagement events. Baselines re-verified via fresh GA4 pull (previous session had ~2x inflated baselines due to filter issue). Also includes Mixpanel Lead Quality Pipeline data and AIO Ownership Rate comparisons.

Verdict: Improving (with conversion investigation needed)

Strong gains in clicks (+30%), sessions (+38%), keyword coverage (+9%), and top-3 rankings (+14%). Traffic value up 9%. Portfolio AIO ownership rose from 47.5% to 50.9% (+3.5pp), with 3 pages showing double-digit gains. Mixpanel lead pipeline strengthened: form submits +40%, CRM leads +83%, MQLs +33%. However, GA4 form_submit events declined -78% (227→50) — likely a tracking issue or form change during content updates, since Mixpanel form completions actually increased. Investigate GA4 form_submit tracking urgently.

AIO Ownership Interpretation

  • Wrongful-death (+22.9pp): Largest gain. Page went from cited in 8/14 to 8/10 AIO SERPs — fewer SERPs now show AIO, but the page retained all its citations. Effective AIO dominance increased.
  • Mesothelioma-cure (+16.6pp): Gained 3 new AIO citations (10→13) with no change in AIO prevalence. Content optimization directly improved AIO citability.
  • Compensation (+13.2pp): Gained 9 new AIO citations (17→26). Most raw citation gains of any page — consistent with its status as top overall performer.
  • Stage-4 (-2.9pp): Lost 1 AIO citation while 2 more SERPs added AI Overviews. Slight dilution effect — monitor for recovery.

AIO Ownership 21.3% (10/47) 18.4% (9/49) -2.9pp Monitor

Massive GSC impression and click gains. Ahrefs estimated traffic nearly doubled. AIO ownership slightly down (-2.9pp) as more SERPs gained AI Overviews but page lost 1 citation. GA4 form_submit stable at 3 — low volume, informational page.


2. /mesothelioma/survival-rate/

AIO Ownership 64.7% (22/34) 62.9% (22/35) -1.8pp Stable

GA4 sessions up but Ahrefs traffic estimate declined. AIO ownership essentially flat (-1.8pp) — retained all 22 citations with 1 new AIO SERP appearing. GA4 form_submit grew modestly (8→11, +38%) — small uplift possibly from sidebar form impressions on higher-traffic sessions.

GSC and GA4 metrics improving. AIO ownership surged to 80% (+22.9pp) — the highest AIO ownership rate in the portfolio. Page retained all 8 AIO citations while 4 SERPs lost their AI Overviews, concentrating the page's dominance. GA4 form_submit dropped significantly (39→6, -85%) — part of a sitewide pattern requiring tracking investigation.

Traffic and rankings stable. AIO ownership essentially unchanged (+0.4pp), gaining 1 new citation with 2 new AIO SERPs. GA4 form_submit dropped significantly (45→10, -78%) — consistent with the sitewide form_submit decline. Mixpanel shows leads actually doubled (4→8), suggesting a GA4 tracking issue rather than real decline.

Key AIO Insights

  1. Net new AIO citations: +20 across 8 pages. The portfolio gained 20 new citations, far outpacing the 1 citation lost (stage-4). This is a strong signal that the content updates improved AI quotability.

  2. AIO SERP expansion is diluting some rates. Trust-fund gained 5 new citations but 8 new SERPs also added AIO — raising raw citations while slightly lowering the rate. The absolute citation count is the better quality signal here.

  3. Three distinct AIO improvement patterns:

    • Citation gainers (compensation +9, trust-fund +5, cure +3, settlements +3): Content optimization directly earned new AIO placements
    • Prevalence shrinkers (wrongful-death): Fewer SERPs show AIO, but page retained all citations — rate increased by default
    • Stable holders (filing-after-death, survival-rate): Content maintains existing citations without significant change
  4. Compensation page validates the AIO optimization thesis. The page with the strongest overall performance gains (+542% traffic value, +173% traffic, +151% sessions) also gained the most raw AIO citations (+9). This correlation supports the hypothesis that AIO-optimized content updates drive both traditional SEO and AI visibility gains simultaneously.

Lead Pipeline Insights

  1. Trust-fund page is the lead engine. Nearly tripled its CRM leads (4→11) and generated 3 new MQLs from zero. This page accounts for 50% of all leads attributed to this portfolio. Combined with its steady SEO gains (+49% sessions, +15% keywords), this is the highest-ROI page in the update cohort.

  2. Filing-after-death shows a quality concern. Leads doubled (4→8), but MQLs dropped (4→2). The lead-to-MQL rate fell from 100% to 25%. This may indicate the content update is attracting a broader audience that doesn't qualify as well, or that there's a lag in MQL processing. Worth monitoring over the next 2 weeks.

  3. Settlements is the steadiest performer. Consistent leads (3→3) with improving MQLs (2→3). Combined with +43% GSC clicks and +81% GA4 sessions, this page maintains reliable lead quality while expanding its traffic base.

  4. Informational pages (stage-4, survival-rate, cure, wrongful-death) generate zero direct leads — expected for treatment/prognosis content. Their value is top-of-funnel awareness and internal link equity flowing to conversion pages.

  5. Portfolio pipeline efficiency is improving. Form-to-lead rate jumped from 60% to 79%, suggesting the content updates are attracting more qualified form submitters — not just more volume.

GA4 form_submit Tracking Issue Detected

GA4 form_submit declined from 227→50 (-78%) across the 8 comparable pages, while Mixpanel shows form completions increasing (+40%, 20→28) and CRM leads surging (+83%, 12→22). The trust-fund page illustrates this starkly: GA4 form_submit dropped 47→8 (-83%) while Mixpanel shows form submits up 57% and leads up 175%. This strongly suggests a GA4 tracking issue — not a real conversion decline. Likely cause: GTM tag change, form implementation update, or consent mode modification during the content update window. Until resolved, use Mixpanel lead pipeline as the source of truth for conversion performance.

  1. /compensation/ — The standout. GA4 sessions +151%, GSC clicks +60%, Ahrefs traffic +173%, traffic value +542%, AIO ownership +13.2pp. Every metric positive. Low lead volume (3 form submits) expected for this page type.
  2. /trust-fund/Top lead generator. CRM leads nearly tripled (4→11), generated 3 new MQLs from zero. GA4 sessions +49%, keywords +15%, top-3 +14%. The highest-ROI page in the cohort when factoring lead pipeline.
  3. /mesothelioma-cure/ — Ahrefs keywords +25%, traffic +64%, traffic value +87%, AIO ownership +16.6pp. Strongest AIO citability gains relative to keyword set size.
  4. /wrongful-death/AIO ownership jumped to 80% (+22.9pp), highest in portfolio. GSC and GA4 metrics also improving.
  5. /stage-4/ — GSC clicks +289%, Ahrefs traffic +86%. Massive impression growth (1,321%). Only 5 days since publish.

Monitor (mixed or declining signals)

  1. /settlements/ — GSC clicks +43%, GA4 sessions +81%, MQLs improving (2→3). Ahrefs traffic/value down but lead quality steady.
  2. /survival-rate/ — GSC clicks down 18%, Ahrefs traffic down 21%, AIO slightly down (-1.8pp). GA4 sessions still up 13%. Informational page, no direct lead generation expected.
  3. /filing-after-death/ — Flat on SEO metrics. AIO stable (+0.4pp). Leads doubled (4→8) but MQLs halved (4→2) — lead quality concern worth investigating.

Investigation Items

  • ⚠ GA4 form_submit declined sitewide (-78%, 227→50): Legal/compensation pages show 77–88% drops across the board. Mixpanel form completions actually increased (+40%). This is almost certainly a tracking issue — likely a GTM/GA4 tag change, form implementation change, or consent mode update during the content update window. Priority: Investigate GA4 form_submit tag configuration urgently.
  • Filing-after-death MQL drop (4→2) despite lead increase (4→8): Leads doubled but MQLs halved — suggesting content update may be attracting broader but less qualified traffic. Review form submissions for lead quality signals.
  • Survival-rate form_submit increase (8→11, +38%): One of only two pages with form_submit growth. Modest increase — may reflect sidebar form impressions from higher-traffic sessions. Cross-reference with Mixpanel (shows 0 form submits for this page, different tracking methodology).
  • Survival-rate GSC click decline (-18%): Review if title/meta changes affected CTR. Ahrefs traffic also down 21%.
  • Stage-4 AIO ownership decline (-2.9pp): Only page that lost a citation. Review which keyword lost AIO placement and if content gap exists.

GSC now properly compared. GA4 conversion metric corrected from aggregate keyEvents (inflated by Hero_Button_Click, CTA clicks) to form_submit only — revealing a sitewide tracking decline (-78%) that requires investigation. Baselines re-verified via fresh GA4 pull (previous session had ~2x inflated baselines due to filter issue). Ahrefs continues expanding keyword footprint. AIO ownership and lead pipeline now incorporated — portfolio gained 3.5pp AIO ownership with 20 net new citations. Mixpanel lead pipeline (source of truth): +40% form submits, +83% CRM leads, +33% MQLs.
