Why isn’t my site in the AI Overview even if I rank #1 organically?
AI Overviews don’t automatically feature the #1 ranked page. Instead, the AI searches for the clearest and most direct answer it can find. This means it might choose a competitor’s page if it has a simple paragraph or bulleted list that’s easier to quote. Our AI Overview Checker shows you exactly who was featured and what format they used.
