Overviews sit above results. AI Mode replaces them.
Google has two AI answers. Which one are you in?
Overviews sit above results. AI Mode replaces them. They often cite different pages. Check both.
Being in one doesn’t put you in the other.

Google has two AI answers built from the same Search index but assembled differently, and for the same question they often cite different pages; being in one does not put you in the other.
Do this today
