Gemini can rely on Google Search grounding and Google's broader understanding of entities, topics, and source quality. Strong classic SEO still matters, but the page also needs extractable answers, clear authorship, current facts, and corroboration across trusted sites.
The practical work is source access, extractable pages, and credible supporting mentions that the model can use when buyers ask for recommendations.
Google documents Search grounding for Gemini and explains that AI Overviews use a customized Gemini model with Search quality systems, ranking systems, and the Knowledge Graph.
