How the actors read on the surface

Luxury Yachting Italy / Amalfi Coast · Amalfi / Capri / Positano · AI citation · August 24–30, 2026

YachtCharterFleet

YachtCharterFleet holds the strongest AI citation share on this market in this card scope, at 19.07% — the highest cumulative citation volume across the 7-run window. It was cited in 6 of 7 comparable runs, meaning it carried signal on all but one observation in the period.

youtube.com

youtube.com records 15.36% AI citation share on this market, a general-purpose platform occupying the second position on a surface otherwise populated by niche domains. It sits 3.71 percentage points behind YachtCharterFleet and was cited in 6 of 7 comparable runs.

facebook.com

facebook.com records 6.99% AI citation share on this market, a social platform that sits 12.08 percentage points behind YachtCharterFleet. It was cited in 6 of 7 comparable runs, placing it in the trailing cluster well behind the top two.

frontieryachting.com

frontieryachting.com records 6.57% AI citation share on this market, sitting 12.50 percentage points behind YachtCharterFleet. Cited in 6 of 7 comparable runs, it occupies the lower tier of the panel alongside facebook.com and Fraser Yachts.

Fraser Yachts

Fraser Yachts records 6.46% AI citation share on this market — the lowest on the governed top-5 panel — yet it is the only actor on the panel cited in all 7 comparable runs. That full-window citation presence did not translate into cumulative volume, leaving Fraser Yachts 12.61 percentage points behind YachtCharterFleet.

Pattern on the observed surface

The panel is top-heavy but not concentrated

The panel is top-heavy but not concentrated. The top 2 actors together hold more than the remaining 3 combined, yet the rank-1 share itself sits at less than a fifth of all citations. Two social platforms — youtube.com and facebook.com — appear alongside niche domains, giving the AI Overview citation rail a mixed composition of general-purpose platforms and focused sources. The 4 sources behind YachtCharterFleet sit between 3.71 and 12.61 percentage points behind it, with the bottom three clustered closely together while youtube.com occupies a distinct middle position.

Why this reading matters

Luxury Yachting Italy / Amalfi Coast · Amalfi / Capri / Positano · AI citation · August 24–30, 2026

YachtCharterFleet accumulated the highest AI citation volume across the period, yet its share remains less than a fifth of all citations observed. Meanwhile Fraser Yachts — the only actor cited in every single comparable run — holds the lowest cumulative share on the panel. Citation presence across runs and cumulative citation volume tell different stories on this surface.

Market implication

Luxury Yachting Italy / Amalfi Coast · Amalfi / Capri / Positano · AI citation · August 24–30, 2026

The AI Overview citation layer on this market is wide open — across the 7 runs observed, no name has taken a concentrated position in AI-generated answers. The spread of 12.61 percentage points between the rank-1 and rank-5 positions, combined with a panel where two platforms sit alongside three niche domains, signals that AI Overviews are drawing from a distributed set of sources when answering Amalfi Coast luxury yachting queries. Monitoring this surface requires tracking both cumulative citation volume and per-run citation presence, as the two dimensions do not move in lockstep on this panel.

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 across the market's observed query set. It does not measure who opens those AI Overview answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.
How were the values aggregated across the 7-run window?
Raw AI citations for each actor were summed across all 7 comparable scheduled runs in the window, and each actor's share was calculated against one single period-wide citation total. The panel is ranked by cumulative citation volume, not by an average of daily values.
Can this card establish a longer-term trend?
No. This card observes an observation period of 7 comparable runs from August 24–30, 2026. AI Overview content varies by query, model, and date. A single window does not establish a multi-month trend.
