Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.
The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it
Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“Best local marketing tool: LocaliQ.” GPT-5.4 mini · Channel marketing · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Choose LocalIQ if: Budget is a key consideration” GLM 4.7 FlashX · Local listings · direct prompt · alternative
“For SMBs: Whitespark ... or LocaliQ” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Local listings · negative prompt · alternative
And against it
Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“Some reviewers describe it as "terrible" with aggressive sales tactics” MiniMax M2.5 · Paid ads · negative prompt · hard negative
“Avoid WordStream/LocaliQ due to high costs and lock-in issues.” Mistral Small · Paid ads · negative prompt · hard negative
“Be cautious of these managed services, as they often strip away direct access to your Google Ads account” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Paid ads · negative prompt · soft negative

A head-to-head page exists where both products are among a category's top eight. The other rows are the same fact without a page behind them, so they link to the product instead.
What carried it into the answer
The sites and pages cited by the answers that named LocaliQ. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 15 of the 15 answers that named LocaliQ and are not a share of its labels.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page localiq.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. Of its titles that name a category, most name SEO (47); 0 name its categories the models place it in. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person.
