A solitary "AI visibility" rating can hide whether the brand shows up in the solution, whether its site supplies the evidence, or whether third-party sites carry a lot of the weight. Marketing experts need to know which of those settings they hold prior to deciding what to take care of. A mention and a citation are various victories. The record breaks down AI visibility right into 2 metrics. A reference implies the brand name shows up in the answer. A citation suggests a domain appears as a resource. Ford demonstrates how far apart those placements can get. In the united state in July, Ford showed up inside all four top- 100 reference checklists. Its domain ranked much reduced for citations: 1, 055 th on ChatGPT, 1, 146 th on Gemini, 1, 320 th on AI Setting, and 748 th on AI Overviews. The reverse takes place as well.

Former St Helens pub prompts memories from local readers. The former Horseshoe pub in Parr (Image: findmypub.com) Find, save and share Public Notices that affect you in the St Helens area. LOCALS have been sharing fond memories of a former St Helens pub after plans to turn the building into a convenience store were approved. The Horseshoe, on Derbyshire Hill Road in Parr, is set to become an Asda Express after planners gave the green light to proposals to convert the vacant former public house. The news prompted readers to look back on their experiences at the pub, recalling everything from lunchtime pints and scampi to pool tables and meeting their future partners. The former Horseshoe pub in Parr (Image: findmypub.com) Shayne Bullock recalled popping in for lunch while working at Sperryn on Delta Road. He said: "I used to work at Sperryn down Delta Road and would nip in there for a pint and some grub at dinner time. "Scampi was my favourite." For Caroline Roberts, the pub was the place where she met her husband. She said: "Have some fab memories of the Horseshoe. Met my hubby there and worked with some great people. Had some laughs!" James Brown also looked back on the friendships he made there during the early 1990s, recalling changes to the pub's layout and the addition of pool tables. He said: "The times I've had in there, with proper people, and they had your back." Remembering renovations at the pub, he added: "I remember the renovation when they swapped the bar to lounge, and then two pool tables - Derby Road side. Some good memories from the early 1990s." He also questioned the prospect of the building becoming a convenience store. Tracey Moore shared similar sentiments, remembering the pub from her childhood and expressing sadness at the decline of local pubs. She said: "Aww, loved horseshoe growing up. It's a shame. Not many pubs about in Parr." What happens next? The approved proposals will see the former pub converted into an Asda Express convenience store, alongside alterations to the building and a single-storey extension following the removal of the existing extension. According to the planning officer's report, the store will provide a range of everyday groceries, ready meals, sandwiches, snacks, fresh fruit and vegetables for local residents. The plans include a car park with 19 standard spaces, including three accessible spaces, as well as a motorcycle space and two electric vehicle charging spaces.

Using Rokt Pay+ on the payment page and Rokt Thanks on the order confirmation page, Asda has created a new retail media revenue stream at the point of purchase, while customer conversion remains unchanged.

The results include: * Rokt revenue on George more than doubled after Rokt Pay+ was added. Pay+ now makes up 51% of Rokt revenue on George, and 36% across Grocery and George. * Rokt revenue on Asda's grocery business grew 72% year on year, based on a 30-day comparison. * Customer conversion (uCCr) were unaffected across both businesses.

We look forward to continuing to innovate and grow the partnership to unlock even greater relevance throughout the e-commerce journey and potentially even customer acquisition."
