AI Overviews
Google's AI-generated summary that appears at the top of many search results, often answering the query before the classic links.
AI Overviews are the AI-written summaries Google now shows above traditional results for a growing share of searches. They pull from multiple sources and frequently answer the question directly, which means fewer people scroll down to click - being cited in the Overview is becoming as valuable as ranking first used to be.
You can't buy a place in an AI Overview, but you can improve your odds: make sure Google can crawl and render your page, answer the question clearly and early, add relevant structured data, and strengthen your trust signals.
