Where you rank against your competitors

We checked 20 of the most searched women’s fashion keywords on Google Australia and counted how many each brand ranks for on page 1.

Why this matters. Almost all clicks go to page 1. Right now competitors are getting that traffic for keywords the brand already has great products and pages for.

03 · Priority findings

3 things you should know about

Each of these is affecting customers right now, and each one can be fixed on top of the existing site.

  1. Customer trust

    AI shopping agents are being told the wrong returns policy

    We asked the brand’s own AI agent endpoint, the one ChatGPT, Gemini and other shopping agents use, how a customer starts a return.

    What AI agents are told

    “Customers must contact the merchant to request a return.”

    The reality

    The brand has a self serve, 30 day returns portal.

    Impact: every AI agent that asks gets this wrong answer and passes it on to shoppers.

  2. Brand protection

    A copycat site ranks for your returns policy

    When shoppers search for the brand’s returns policy, a different site using the brand’s name appears at #3.

    Impact: customers looking for help can land on a site the brand does not control.

  3. AI commerce

    AI agents can only buy from one of your stores

    The setup that lets AI agents search, add to cart and check out is live for the Australia and New Zealand store only.

    • AU / NZAgent ready
    • USNot discoverable
    • UKNot discoverable
    • EUNot discoverable

    Impact: the US, UK and EU stores are not discoverable to AI shopping agents from the main site, just as Meta’s Muse, OpenAI’s Dots and Instinct launch in the US.
