Why AI still misses you after a site refresh
Editing your own site rarely flips mentions overnight. Authority, indexing delay, and noisy probes explain most early “no mention” weeks.
2026-08-05
Refreshing homepage copy does not force generative engines to mention you the next day. Engines lean on retrievable, trusted facts — not your latest hero slogan.
Gap one: authority. Your site and knowledge base often weigh less than encyclopedias and media. Weipet Time’s own knowledge site can be live while encyclopedia entries are still pending — models may still mix lookalikes. That is an open lever, not wasted work.
Gap two: indexing lag. Days to weeks is normal; silence tomorrow is not proof the pipeline failed.
Gap three: probe noise. Login walls and tiny samples make Live failures a tooling issue, not a campaign verdict.
Do this: keep feeding true authority indexing, keep the knowledge site and disambiguation pages live with your name, and retest fixed prompts weekly. The Web Console Free tier covers domestic basics; Pro (~¥1,980 / year) unlocks overseas and advanced features; done-for-you buys human pipeline work — none guarantees mentions.
If you just refreshed the site and feel anxious: check third-party authority first. Self-serve on /download; done-for-you via /contact.
