Key reading
Luxury Hospitality St Barth · St Barthélemy · Organic search · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
forbestravelguide.com most often holds the top organic position across the 7-run window, yet its observed presence sits at 40.99% — the lowest breadth figure on the panel. lebarthelemyhotel.com, by contrast, appears at 55.61% observed presence but ranks lower on the top-position axis. Facebook, present in 7 of 7 comparable runs, records 52.74% observed presence, placing it firmly inside the top tier by breadth without holding the top-position lead. The spread between the highest and lowest observed presence on this panel is -8.08 percentage points, an unusually compressed range for a five-actor panel. The result is a surface where positional authority and breadth of coverage point in different directions — no single domain commands both dimensions.

How the actors read on the surface
Luxury Hospitality St Barth · St Barthélemy · Organic search · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
forbestravelguide.com most often holds the top organic position on this market across the 7-run window, appearing in 7 of 7 comparable runs. Its 40.99% observed presence is the narrowest breadth on the panel, suggesting concentrated strength at the top of individual result pages rather than wide-spectrum coverage.
Facebook appears in 7 of 7 comparable runs with 52.74% observed presence — the second-widest breadth figure on the panel. Its consistent presence across every run in the window makes it one of the most broadly visible domains on this organic surface.
cntraveler.com holds an observed organic position on this market with 42.83% observed presence, appearing in 6 of 7 comparable runs. Its breadth sits close to forbestravelguide.com, keeping the upper portion of the panel tightly packed.
lebarthelemyhotel.com records the widest observed presence on the panel at 55.61%, despite ranking lower on the top-position axis. Present in 6 of 7 comparable runs, it surfaces across more queries than any other actor — a breadth advantage that does not translate into the most frequent top-position finishes.
sebastianluxetravel.com appears in 4 of 7 comparable runs with 49.07% observed presence. It is the least frequently present actor on the panel, yet when it does appear its breadth figure sits comfortably in the middle of the range.
Pattern on the observed surface

The panel is remarkably compressed
The panel is remarkably compressed. A -8.08 percentage-point spread separates the widest and narrowest observed presence figures, and all five actors cluster between 40.99% and 55.61%. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 2 combined on observed presence, but the margin is modest. Presence frequency varies more sharply: two actors appear in every run, two in 6 of 7, and one in only 4 of 7 — introducing a frequency gradient beneath the flat coverage surface. The shape is contested rather than concentrated, with no clear structural break between the top and the rest.
Why this reading matters
Luxury Hospitality St Barth · St Barthélemy · Organic search · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
forbestravelguide.com holds the top organic position most often, yet lebarthelemyhotel.com is seen at the widest observed presence. That divergence — positional strength versus breadth — is the defining structural feature of this panel. It means the actor a searcher is most likely to see first is not the actor most likely to appear somewhere on the page.
Market implication
Luxury Hospitality St Barth · St Barthélemy · Organic search · Aug 31 – Sep 6, 2026
The compressed spread and the split between positional authority and breadth coverage signal a surface where organic visibility is genuinely contested. For any operator monitoring this market, the observation implies that tracking top-position frequency alone would miss the breadth picture, and tracking breadth alone would miss who controls the top slot. Both dimensions matter, and across this 7-run window neither dimension has consolidated around a single domain.

FAQ
- What does observed presence measure on this card?
- It measures the percentage of observed queries on which a given domain appeared somewhere in the organic results, averaged across the comparable runs where that actor was present. It captures breadth of visibility, not the position within the results.
- Why does the actor ranked first by top organic position show a lower observed presence than some actors ranked below it?
- The panel is ranked by how often each actor holds the number-one organic spot, not by how broadly it appears. An actor can win the top position frequently on a narrower set of queries while another actor appears on more queries without as often finishing first.
- Does this card prove a long-term trend or business-market ownership?
- No. This card observes 7 comparable scheduled runs across August 31 – September 6, 2026. It does not claim multi-month trajectory, and organic search visibility does not equate to business-market share or ownership.
