Gemini — Google's answer layer

Embedded across Google Search, Maps, and Android.

Who's asking

Anyone using Google Search's AI Overviews, Google Maps' AI suggestions, or Android's built-in assistant. Massive local and mobile skew.

How it picks answers

Pulls from Google's index, Google Business Profile, Maps reviews, and structured data. Local results lean heavily on your GBP completeness.

How to win it

Fully complete your Google Business Profile — every field, every category, weekly photos. Respond to reviews. Add Q&A. This is the highest-leverage hour you can spend on AEO.
