What Google Gemini looks for in this sector
When someone asks Google Gemini about moving companies, it assembles an answer from your website, your business profile, review platforms and any third-party pages that mention you. Moving queries are seasonal and comparison-heavy, making reviews and clear pricing basis decisive. The businesses that get named are rarely the ones with the best design; they are the ones whose facts are easiest to extract and verify.
The pages you need
One page per service you offer, named the way customers name it rather than the way your industry does. Each should answer its core question in the first 40 to 55 words and state services, coverage area, pricing basis, insurance and booking as plain facts with numbers where possible. A single generalist page describing everything you do will not be cited for any specific query.
Profile and review work
Complete every field of your Google Business Profile, choose the most specific primary category, add real photos monthly and collect reviews consistently rather than in bursts. For local and service queries, review recency and volume feed directly into which businesses assistants name.
Technical requirements
Allow AI crawlers in robots.txt, add LocalBusiness and Service schema, and keep your name, address and phone identical everywhere online. Full detail in our guide to getting ranked in Google Gemini.
What to avoid
Publishing volumes of generic AI-written content, which these systems specifically discount. Hiding prices, which removes you from comparison answers. And claiming capabilities you cannot evidence, which fails the trust check these systems apply to service businesses.
Frequently asked questions
Can I pay to be recommended by an AI assistant? No. There is no paid placement in AI answers. Visibility is earned through the signals above.
How long does this take? Weeks to a few months, and faster than classic SEO because these systems retrieve live sources rather than waiting for rankings to settle.
Does classic SEO still matter? Yes. AI systems lean heavily on what already ranks and what third parties say about you, so the two reinforce each other.
How do I know it is working? Ask the assistants your buying questions monthly and record who is named. You can verify any claim yourself in thirty seconds.
