How do I get my business into Google's AI Overviews?

AI Overviews are built from pages Google already ranks and trusts — so the entry ticket is classic search competence: crawlable pages, real topical authority, and content that answers the query directly.

Beyond that baseline, overviews favor sources that state facts cleanly: short declarative passages, questions answered in the opening lines, consistent business facts across your site and Google Business Profile, and schema that corroborates what the text says.

There's no submission process and no shortcut — being citable is the strategy. The same work that earns overview citations also earns ChatGPT and Perplexity recommendations, which is why it's one program, not three.
