The percentage of recorded answers to a category's buyer questions that name a given company. One answer can name several companies, so the shares in a category do not add to 100. A company with 1.5 times the next company's share leads the category's answers; the report calls that posture 'leader'.
How to read the table
The report lists you and the rivals discovered for your market, with each one's share. The top row is the leader; the row that matters most is the one the report calls the sharpest threat: the rival named ahead of you most often when both of you appear, which is often not the largest.
What moves it
Being added to answers you were absent from. Site changes alone rarely move it, because most answers are written from other people's pages. The 'named instead' table says which questions and which rival, and the citations say which page.
