Waitlist - AI Overviews expansion

What happened exactly?

Google has recently introduced AI Overviews in several new countries, including the United Kingdom, India, Japan, Indonesia, Mexico, and Brazil.

 

ZipTie, a tool for tracking AI Overviews, will soon support these countries too. 

 

To be among the first to access this new feature, join our waitlist.

 
 

What does this change?

Expansion of AI Overviews to more countries essentially means three things:

  • More users will start having conversations with AIO while researching their next purchase, rather than perform classical keyword search in Google
  • The top of results page will change, in some cases even pushing even top 1 result below the screen fold in some cases, therefore the amount of impressions and clicks received by top performing pages will change in coming days and weeks
  • Google AI Overview is showing much less links to actual sites and uses a different algorithm to decide which site to promote compared to “traditional” SERPS, therefore magnifying the difference in impressions and clicks for online businesses
 

How to make sure I’m not going to be affected?

At ZipTie, we’ve got you covered! With our free trial account, you can check up to 400 AIO Queries for free over two weeks.

or if you’re interested in other countries (US, India, United Kingdom, Japan, Mexico, Brazil), we are already working on adding this capability to ZipTie and expect it to be rolled out early in September 2024.
