SEO & AI systems researcher · Indexing-first search visibility models · Founder of Casinokrisa

This site is a research journal on how search systems crawl, index, interpret, and decide what gets shown. The focus is not “SEO tactics”, but trust distribution: why some sources become default outcomes and others stay stored-but-unused.

Indexing-first models for visibility: storage → retrieval → selection.
