What is Zero-click search?
Also: Zero-click
Zero-click search describes a search where the user gets the answer directly on the results page or in the assistant and does not click through to any website. AI Overviews and chat assistants increase it. In a zero-click world, being named in the answer matters as much as ranking.
Consequences
Traffic from informational queries may fall even when your brand is shown. That makes brand mentions, citations and branded searches more important to track alongside clicks.
How to respond
Make sure the answer that is shown includes your brand, and make the click worth it: tools, data and detail that a summary cannot replace.
