How Google and the AI engines decide who gets found and who gets quoted, in plain language, with the numbers we have seen ourselves. 18 guides so far, a new one every working day, refreshed when the engines move. If you would rather have the work done than read about it, see our GEO and SEO consulting services in Cyprus.
DataAxenor Consulting checked 60 Cyprus business homepages, 20 professional-services firms, 20 hotels and 20 real estate businesses, for what an AI engine can read. 27 give no machine-readable record of the business. 15 have no meta description. One carries FAQ markup. Two have a Wikidata entity. One blocks the crawlers that feed AI search, and two show a crawler nothing until JavaScript runs.

BuyingAn AEO platform measures: it puts your buyer questions to ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI features on a schedule and reports where you are mentioned and who is mentioned instead.

In our September 2026 check of 20 Cyprus professional-services homepages, none carried FAQ markup and three linked to an FAQ at all.
