        "text": "To measure local voice search performance, you’ll combine several indirect metrics rather than a single “voice” report. Track changes in calls, direction requests, map views, and question-based queries over time.\n\nThese behaviors typically rise when assistants start recommending your business more often.\n\nKEY FACTORS\n- Use Google Business Profile insights for calls, messages, and direction taps.\n- Check Search Console for longer, conversational queries and “near me” phrases.\n- Look at referral data from maps and assistant apps where available.\n\nCreate a simple monthly dashboard to compare these numbers before and after voice-focused changes like FAQ additions or listing cleanups.\n\nYou’re looking for more high-intent actions, not just keyword rankings, as your primary success signal.",

Rising high-intent actions are your best indicator that voice optimization is paying off."
