Reverse-engineering the AI Overview's current answer into your page is a trap.

Reverse-engineering the AI Overview's current answer into your page is a trap.

You paraphrase what the Overview already says, thinking you'll "match" it. Congrats — you just made yourself redundant. The model already has that answer; it has zero reason to cite a page that adds nothing new.

Add the thing the Overview is missing: original data, a contrarian take, a specific example, a fresher number.

You get cited for filling gaps, not echoing the consensus. Tell me I'm wrong.
