What it means ## Three things this tells you. * ### A ranking is not a mention AI draws on sources your Google work may never touch. Your firm needs its own plan to be named. * ### Directories take space you could hold Directories take 3 of the 9 spots on Google's first page. Your site competes for the other 6. * ### Repeat names are the exception Few criminal defense lawyers are named by more than one assistant. Steady mentions across many sources make an assistant repeat a name.
