| CRM Digital Inc. Launches AI Search Optimization (GEO) for Texas BusinessesThe Houston-area agency's new Generative Engine Optimization service helps Texas and U.S. companies stay visible as more searches end with an AI answer instead of a click.
By: CRM Digital INC Search trends have actually shifted and started to affect the way people search. The first quarter of 2025 was when Google first started to implement AI Overviews on a select few results, but by the end of the second quarter, coverage shot up to just under 25 percent and slowed down to around 16 percent for the rest of the year. Coverage actually impacts what someone does next. In a report published in July 2025, the Pew Research Center found that only 8 percent of traditional search results were actually clicked when an AI Overview was presented. The Summary actually served as the main source of the answer with 1 percent of total summary clicks. The use of AI assistants in people's daily lives is real. 800 million users were reported as the weekly active users of ChatGPT by the end of 2025, but the first month of 2026 shot that to at least 900 million users. For businesses, losing potential customers to answering assistants is the situation. "A lot of owners watch their traffic slip and assume they've dropped in Google. Usually they haven't. What's changed is that the answer now sits at the top of the page, and if your business isn't part of that answer, the customer may never scroll down to find you," said at CRM Digital Inc.
