How the actors read on the surface

Branded Residences Spain · Marbella / Mallorca / Madrid · AI citation · July 13–19, 2026

idealista.com

idealista.com holds the strongest AI citation share on this market in this card scope, at 13.95%. Cited in 7 of 7 comparable runs, it occupies the top position on the AI Overview citation panel — though the margin over the next source is slim enough to make the lead contestable rather than commanding.

youtube.com

youtube.com records 13.52% AI citation share on this market, sitting 0.43 percentage points behind idealista.com. As a general-purpose platform rather than a specialist operator, its near-parity with the rank-1 source is a notable feature of this panel — cited in 7 of 7 comparable runs across the window.

brand-atlas.com

brand-atlas.com records 11.01% AI citation share on this market, sitting 2.95 percentage points behind idealista.com. Cited in 7 of 7 comparable runs, it anchors the middle of the panel and narrows the gap between the top pair and the lower tier.

brandedliving.co

brandedliving.co records 9.01% AI citation share on this market and sits 4.94 percentage points behind idealista.com. Cited in 7 of 7 comparable runs, it occupies the fourth position on the period-wide ranking — close enough to brand-atlas.com to form a visible mid-panel cluster.

brandedresi.com

brandedresi.com records 8.23% AI citation share on this market, the lowest on the governed panel, sitting 5.72 percentage points behind idealista.com. It was cited in 7 of 7 comparable runs.

Pattern on the observed surface

Branded Residences Spain · Marbella / Mallorca / Madrid · AI citation · July 13–19, 2026

The panel is distributed rather than concentrated

The panel is distributed rather than concentrated. The top 2 actors together hold less than the remaining 3 combined, which means no pair commands the surface. A general-purpose platform sits at rank 2 alongside four niche domains, giving the panel a mixed composition. The spread of 5.72 percentage points from top to bottom is narrow for a five-actor panel, and the 4 sources behind idealista.com sit between 0.43 and 5.72 percentage points behind it — a gradual slope rather than a sharp drop-off.

Why this reading matters

Branded Residences Spain · Marbella / Mallorca / Madrid · AI citation · July 13–19, 2026

idealista.com holds the rank-1 position on this AI Overview citation surface, yet its lead over youtube.com is 0.43 percentage points. The presence of a general-purpose platform at near-parity with the top-ranked source suggests that AI Overviews on Branded Residences Spain draw from a broad mix of domain types rather than favoring any single category of source.

Market implication

Branded Residences Spain · Marbella / Mallorca / Madrid · AI citation · July 13–19, 2026

The distributed shape of this AI Overview citation panel across the 7-run window signals that no single source has accumulated a decisive citation advantage on Branded Residences Spain. The compressed spread and the mix of niche domains alongside a general-purpose platform suggest that AI citation behavior on this market is dispersed rather than locked in. Monitoring future windows will clarify whether this distribution narrows or persists.

FAQ

What does AI citation share on this market measure?
It measures how often a domain appears as a cited source inside AI Overview answers when Google responds to queries in the Branded Residences Spain market. It does not measure who opens those AI answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.
Can this card establish a longer-term trend?
No. This card observes an observation period of 7 comparable scheduled runs from July 13–19, 2026. AI Overview content varies by query, model, and date. A single 7-run window does not establish a multi-month trajectory.
Why does a general-purpose platform appear on this panel?
youtube.com was cited by AI Overviews across all 7 comparable runs in the window. AI citation share reflects what AI Overviews actually reference, regardless of whether the source is a specialist domain or a general-purpose platform.
