Gemini relies on Google Search to ground answers that need current information, so a well-indexed, trustworthy website and a consistent brand entity are the foundation of visibility. The same Gemini model family also powers AI Overviews and AI Mode, which Google began rolling out in Türkiye on 18 February 2026.
- Fix indexing and crawl issues in Search Console.
- Review your Google-Extended setting: it controls whether content is used for Gemini training and for grounding in Gemini apps, but it does not affect Google Search rankings or AI Overviews. Googlebot is what feeds Search.
- Keep your Google Business Profile accurate and complete.
- Use Organization and ProfessionalService markup with consistent names, alternate names and service area.
- Build content that answers sub-questions, since AI Mode splits queries using query fan-out.
Google representatives say no special technique is needed for AI Overviews beyond normal SEO, and Google has said it does not use llms.txt. Results vary and cannot be guaranteed; setup usually takes 1–2 weeks and reflection in AI answers typically 4–12 weeks. Racoun treats Gemini visibility as a layer on top of SEO and reports it monthly together with ChatGPT, Perplexity and Copilot.
