What it means ## Three things this tells you. * ### Ranking alone is not enough Most shops AI recommends are missing from Google's first page. Work on the signals AI reads as well as your rankings, or you stay invisible in AI answers. * ### Directories take much of Google's page Directories take 6 of the 9 spots on Google's first page. Your site competes for the other 3. * ### Few get named twice Few auto repair shops are named by more than one assistant. Steady mentions across many sources make an assistant repeat a name.
