What it means ## Three things this tells you. * ### Ranking alone will not name you AI picks family lawyers from sources beyond Google's first page. Your firm needs a plan for AI answers, separate from the one for Google rankings. * ### Directories take space you could hold Directories take 2 of the 9 spots on Google's first page. Your site competes for the other 7. * ### Repeat mentions are rare Few family lawyers are named by more than one assistant. Steady mentions across many sources make an assistant repeat a name.
