FAQ
- What does AI citation share on this market measure?
- It measures how often an actor's domain appears as a cited source inside AI Overview answers when Google responds to queries on this market. It does not measure who opens those AI answers or how actors rank in organic search results.
- Can this card establish a longer-term trend?
- No. This card observes a 7-run window from October 12–18, 2026. AI Overview content varies by query, model, and date. A single window does not establish a multi-month trend.
- Why do platforms like facebook.com and youtube.com appear on a luxury real estate citation panel?
- AI Overviews cite the sources they draw from when generating answers. General-purpose platforms that host user-generated content about Marbella real estate can be cited alongside focused domains. This card reports what AI Overviews cited, not what type of source an operator might expect.
