How many times do we make a Google search and not click any links? Google is calling this the “agentic era,” where searching has shifted to A.I. agents doing the work of browsing the links for us, taking away human traffic to your website.
What does that mean for SEO? The good news is that the fundamentals haven’t changed. Google says websites that are helpful, trustworthy, and written for real people are also the ones most likely to be used by A.I. That means your business should continue to:
• Make your website easy to navigate
• Publish original, helpful content
• Demonstrate expertise in your industry
• Keep website information accurate and up to date
👉 Creating optimized content is more important than ever, not just for search rankings, but for being cited by A.I. https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-seo-for-ai-agents/580589/
