The panel's shape is distributed rather than concentrated
The panel's shape is distributed rather than concentrated. The top 3 actors together hold more than the remaining 2 combined, but the 4 sources behind Marbella in Style range from 14.14% down to 6.12% — a trailing band wide enough to separate the mid-panel cluster from idealista.com at the bottom, yet too narrow at the top to grant any single domain clear separation. A social platform sits inside the governed top 5 alongside niche domains, signalling that AI Overviews source this market from a mix of focused sources and general-purpose platforms. All 5 actors on the panel were cited in all 5 comparable runs.
Why this reading matters
