Digital Marketing Tribe gets businesses named in Google Gemini, in AI Overviews and in AI Mode. Gemini answers are grounded in Google Search and Google Maps, so the work is strong Google foundations plus the entity, review, schema and content signals Gemini uses to pick one business over another. Asked for a functional medicine doctor in Sydney's Hills District, Gemini names our client Dr Jaimini Raniga as its single answer. No lock-in contracts, everything in-house.
We engaged Digital Marketing Tribe for both Google Ads and SEO services, and the results have exceeded our expectations. Their expertise, professionalism, and attention to detail have significantly improved our online visibility. What sets them apart is their clear communication, transparency, and genuine commitment to helping their clients succeed. They take the time to understand the business, provide regular updates and explain complex, up to date digital marketing concepts.

Honestly can't recommend Digital Marketing Tribe enough. They are so easy to work with, they understood the identity I wanted with my brand and executed. Since taking on my SEO, Theva has grown so quickly. In just 3 months, about 2 out of every 3 of my leads now come directly from Google, and I constantly get compliments on how good my website looks from other business owners and customers. They've made the whole thing completely stress-free and the results are snowballing every month. Thank you team!

Gemini is Google's AI model, and it sits in three places your customers use: the Gemini app, the AI Overviews at the top of Google results, and AI Mode, the conversational version of Google Search. All three are grounded in the same things: Google's index, Google Maps and Business Profiles, Google Shopping data and the reviews attached to them. When Gemini recommends a business it is drawing on what Google already knows, which is why a business with a complete Business Profile, strong reviews, clear pages and clean structured data gets named, and one with a thin profile and a vague services page does not.
That also means Gemini SEO is mostly done in Google's own systems rather than on a separate platform. Our approach maps the questions your buyers ask, tests them in Gemini and in AI Mode from Australia every month, and then works the signals that decide the answer: the entity (who you are, where, what you do, stated the same way everywhere), the Business Profile and reviews Gemini shows as a card, Organization, Service, LocalBusiness and Product schema, and pages that answer the question in plain sentences. On 18 September 2026 Gemini answered "who is a good functional medicine doctor in Sydney Hills District for IBS" with one name, our client's, and her Maps card. For "where can I buy a genuine TRX in Australia" it listed our client SuspensionExercise.com.au first under official TRX stores.
One honest note on measurement. Gemini sends very few referral clicks: across all our clients GA4 recorded 29 visits from gemini.google.com in 90 days against 1,124 from ChatGPT. That is not because Gemini ignores our clients, it is because Gemini's influence lands through Google: a click from an AI Overview or AI Mode is recorded as Google organic, and a Maps card click as a Business Profile action. So we measure Gemini with monthly prompt tests, Search Console and Business Profile data rather than referral traffic, and we say so in the report.
Client Example
Suspension Exercise: first under "Official TRX Stores" in Gemini
Suspension Exercise runs two WooCommerce stores, Australia and New Zealand, selling the TRX range from a store in Hunters Hill and shipping nationally. Google had been folding the two stores into one, so the first job was hreflang and a country differentiation block on both sites; then Product and Offer schema on every product, a curated llms.txt file, and clean product pages with price, stock and shipping stated plainly.
Asked "where can I buy a genuine TRX suspension trainer in Australia?" on 18 September 2026, Gemini listed SuspensionExercise.com.au first under Official TRX Stores, ahead of the master distributor and the big fitness retailers. ChatGPT named the same store first for the same question. AI-assistant visits to the Australian store doubled in the last 90 days, 19 to 39, with Gemini, ChatGPT and Perplexity all represented.
First under "Official TRX Stores" in Gemini and the first recommendation in ChatGPT for the same question
Product and Offer schema on every product, plus a curated llms.txt file
Hreflang and a country differentiation block so Google indexes the AU and NZ stores separately
AI-assistant visits doubled in 90 days, 19 to 39
Same foundations serve AI Overviews and AI Mode, where clicks are recorded as Google organic
Gemini answers the Hills District functional medicine question with one name and her Maps card, then lists her approach to IBS and SIBO from the site's own condition pages. Semrush scored the site 0 for AI visibility in May 2026. 59 AI-assistant visits in the last 90 days.
The most-mentioned brand across AI platforms of any client we track: AI Visibility index 46 and 416 AI mentions in the May 2026 Semrush snapshot, with 139 AI-assistant visits and 34 tracked conversions in the last 90 days.
Named among five Adelaide orthodontists ChatGPT maps for adult braces and clear aligners, with AI Visibility index 30 in the May snapshot. The next job is the same for Gemini: the reviews, the entity and the adult-treatment pages that decide who is named first.
Gemini, AI Overviews and AI Mode all draw on Google Search and Maps, so our local SEO and SEO work carries straight into them.
What's Included
Everything it takes to be named by Gemini
Six disciplines, delivered by our own team, priced by scope rather than by the hour.
Your buyer questions tested in the Gemini app and in Google AI Mode from Australia every month, with who is named, what is said, which Maps cards and sources appear, and screenshots in the report.
The card Gemini shows for local answers is your Business Profile. Categories, services, hours, photos, reviews and a description that states what you do, kept consistent with your site and the directories Google cross-checks.
Organization, Service, LocalBusiness, Product, Offer and FAQ schema, plus an llms.txt file, so Google's systems read your entity, offers and answers without guessing.
Pages that answer the question in the first paragraph, in plain sentences, with the specifics Gemini repeats: conditions treated, products stocked, prices, locations, credentials and who the service is for.
Gemini leans on ratings, review counts and mentions on sites Google trusts. A review strategy, industry and supplier listings and earned mentions are what turn a listed business into the named one.
Because Gemini clicks arrive as Google organic and Maps actions, we report Search Console impressions and clicks for the target questions, Business Profile actions and the monthly prompt results, not a referral number that undercounts it.

Where Gemini Answers
The three places Gemini answers your customers
Same model, three surfaces, three slightly different jobs. We test and report all three.
The Gemini app
A direct question gets a direct answer, often one business with a Maps card, as with Dr Jaimini Raniga. Won with a complete Business Profile, reviews and pages that state credentials and specifics.
AI Overviews
The summary above Google results, citing a handful of pages. Won with answer-first content, FAQ and Service schema and the authority that already ranks the page in the top results.
AI Mode
Conversational Google Search that runs several searches at once and stitches the results. Won with topic coverage across your service, location and question pages, and consistent entity data so the stitching lands on you.
Common Questions
Gemini SEO, answered
How much does Gemini SEO cost?
AI search optimisation is a monthly add-on from $600 plus GST on any of our SEO packages (Local SEO from $800, Full SEO from $1,500, Competitive SEO from $2,800), and a one-off Website AI and SEO audit is $997. Because Gemini is grounded in Google Search and Maps, it is not separable from the SEO underneath it. Pricing is on our pricing page.
Is Gemini SEO the same as ranking in Google?
Mostly, with two additions. Gemini needs a clear entity (a complete Business Profile, consistent details, schema) and content that answers the question in plain sentences it can lift. A page that ranks but buries the answer, or a business with a thin profile, tends to be skipped for one that states things plainly.
Why does GA4 show so little traffic from Gemini?
Because Gemini clicks mostly arrive through Google. AI Overview and AI Mode clicks are attributed to google / organic, and Maps card actions to your Business Profile. Only the Gemini app sends gemini.google.com referrals, and few of them. We measure Gemini with prompt tests, Search Console and Business Profile data instead, and explain that in the report.
Do AI Overviews take traffic away from my site?
For informational questions, sometimes: the answer is read and nobody clicks. For commercial and local questions the Overview or AI Mode answer names businesses and the clicks go to the ones named. The work on this page is about being the business named, which is where the enquiries come from.
Can you get us into Gemini if we are not on Google Maps?
For local and service businesses a Business Profile is the card Gemini shows, so we set one up and verify it as the first step. For online-only businesses the entity comes from schema, consistent mentions and a Knowledge Panel over time, which is a longer job we scope in the audit.
What about ChatGPT and Perplexity?
They read the web differently: ChatGPT searches live and cites the pages and third-party sources it trusts, and it currently sends far more referral traffic. We run ChatGPT optimisation as its own page and track every assistant monthly in our AI SEO service.
