When Google shows an AI Overview, many people never scroll to result number four. The overview becomes the answer. If your competitors are named and you are not, you lost the click before the SERP finished loading.
What earns a mention
- Pages that answer the question completely, in plain language
- Clear entity signals: who you are, where you are, what you sell
- FAQ and Organization markup engines can parse
- Corroboration across the web (consistent NAP, credible mentions)
What does not work
Stuffing keywords into thin pages. Buying fake reviews. Copying US playbooks that ignore Zimbabwean search language and payment realities.
