Overview
Google is changing how travellers discover businesses. AI Overviews are the current hybrid version - you see AI-generated summaries at the top with traditional blue links underneath.
But Google is moving fast toward AI Mode - a full AI-only search experience. Here, Google’s system uses a fan-out query approach, where travellers can ask up to ten questions at once. Individual AI bots go off to research, then return with a summarised answer containing just a handful of citations.
This means the game has completely changed. Instead of competing for hundreds of thousands of blue links on page one, your business now needs to fight for just 4 to 10 citation spots. If you’re not cited, you’re invisible - and that directly impacts your bottom line.
Learning how to optimise so that you’re indexed and cited in Google AI results is now critical.
Why Google AI Mode & AI Overviews matter
-
AI Overviews = hybrid search - AI summaries plus traditional results.
-
AI Mode = AI-only search - no blue links, just a handful of citations.
-
Fan-out queries - Google sends out multiple bots to answer questions in depth.
-
AI pulls information back into its own Ai search windo - as opposed to the traveller doing the research themselves.
-
Hyper-competition for visibility - just 4 to 10 citations per query instead of thousands of links.
-
Direct bookings at stake - OTAs already dominate citations, leaving independents at risk.
-
Future-proofing - businesses that adapt now will capture visibility before competitors catch up.
