I just published an article and am eager to see if it will be picked up by AI tools. How long should I expect to wait for visibility? It feels like a waiting game.

It can take a few weeks to a couple of months for an article to gain traction. Keep promoting it across platforms and engage with readers to boost its chances.

Typically, you might wait from weeks to a month. The more you network and create buzz around your article, the faster AI tools may pick it up.
