The Challenge

TechStore Pro, a mid-sized online electronics retailer, was struggling to maintain visibility as Google's AI-powered search features began dominating their target keywords. Despite ranking well in traditional search results, they were rarely appearing in AI Overviews, causing a significant decline in organic traffic and sales.

Key Problems

  • Zero AI Overview appearances for target keywords
  • Declining organic traffic (-23% YoY)
  • Competitors dominating AI search results
  • Product pages not optimized for conversational queries

Business Impact

  • Revenue decline of 18% quarter-over-quarter
  • Increased customer acquisition costs
  • Loss of market share to AI-optimized competitors
  • Reduced brand visibility in search results
