This page answers the questions covered by the article 1,777 Verified ChatGPT Fetches in 30 Days. What Can an Ads Agency Actually Prove? on groas.com. The article is the full, canonical source.
Direct answer: According to groas, its logs show 1,777 verified fetches in 30 days, with 783 to the homepage (44.1%) and 576 to a dated updates post (32.4%), which proves pages were requested, not that they appeared in 1,777 answers. The article states a live-fetch count is not a complete visibility count and that edge logs do not measure ads. It reports early paid figures of 0.5% to 2% CTR and under $3 to over $10 CPC, and recommends a small, instrumented test with tracking installed before launch.
According to groas, the 1,777 total counts only requests that claimed the AI-crawler identity and matched IPs in the provider’s published verification file, with header-only matches discarded. The article reports 783 fetches to the homepage (44.1%), 576 to the 2026 updates post (32.4%), and 418 to all other pages combined (23.5%). The article states the shares describe fetches, not people, conversations or ad impressions, and the logs do not contain prompts or show what was displayed.

The article states a live-fetch count is not a complete answer-visibility count. It cites a controlled 10-question test where the author’s pages were cited in 9 of 10 answers but fetched live only once for the homepage. According to groas, a page can appear from a stored copy without a fresh fetch, so fetch counts should not be sold as visibility counts.

The article describes published paid numbers as thin and split, with CTR at 0.5% to 2% and CPCs from under $3 to over $10. In one reported test, an advertiser spent $477 over six weeks for 370 clicks and zero conversions. According to groas, as of late 2026 ads appeared on about 25.94% of commercial prompts, and about 14% of those ads had limited or no connection to the query or thread.

According to groas, reporting shows Spend, Impressions, Clicks and CPC, with slices for Device, Country and Platform, but has no query report, prompt-theme report or search-terms tab. If the pixel and Conversions API are in place before launch, an advertiser can also see conversions, Attributed Sales Value and Sales ROAS, with separate view-through and click-through values. The article states counting starts from installation, with no retroactive attribution if tracking is added late.

The article recommends a small test with a $3 to $5 starting max CPC against a $60 default CPM max, and a daily budget set as an average that can spend up to 2x in one day and up to 7x across seven days. As an example, the article states setting $100 a day makes a $200 spike day possible. It also recommends installing the pixel and Conversions API before launch, noting that a catalog upload makes items eligible for ads only and that text customization starts on and can rewrite headlines without individual review.
