* Map pack: **"best hair salon in Harrisonburg, Virginia for curly hair"**. Google showed a map pack and an AI Overview. Shops without a strong profile never appear.
* AI Overview: **"best divorce lawyer in Harrisonburg, Virginia for a high-asset divorce"**. Google put a map pack and an AI Overview above the regular results.
* Local trust: **"best house cleaning service in Harrisonburg, Virginia for a deep clean"**. A map pack and an AI Overview came first. Reviews and profile detail shape who gets named.
