What it means ## Three things this tells you. * ### Ranking alone leaves AI gaps A strong Google position does not mean AI will name your company. AI draws on other sources too, so you need a plan for both. * ### Directories take space on Google Directories take 3 of the 9 spots on Google's first page. Your site competes for the other 6. * ### Repeat mentions are rare Few painting companies are named by more than one assistant. Steady mentions across many sources make an assistant repeat a name.
