Core and More Technologies Unlocking Digital Potential 🚀 | Data-Driven Digital Marketing with Core & More Technologies

Okay everyone - back with the long anticipated Digital Marketing Trend #6 for 2026!

Stop posting for the algorithm. It’s finally stopped listening to your volume. 🛑

In 2026, the "Social Content Quality Reset" is officially here. For years, we were told to post more, faster, and trendier. But the data is in: consumers are exhausted and feeds are saturated with shallow filler.

The winning metric is no longer likes or impressions - it’s Session Time.

The Shift:

From: 10-second glances at repetitive trends.

To: 10-minute deep dives into meaningful resources.

If your content doesn't earn attention, it won't earn distribution. It’s time to adopt the "Less, but Better" approach.

WOW. Google just changed the game for local service providers - and if they are not paying attention, they will miss the boat ENTIRELY! And literally.

As of December, 2025 (in other words, this is still brand new) Google quietly rolled out a major feature upgrade that enables consumers to facilitate online estimates, and even to 'get competitive quotes', without ever leaving the search engine results page.

And, when a user clicks “Get Competitive Quotes” in Google Search:
They don’t visit websites.
They don’t browse pages.
They don’t “shop around.”

Instead, Google:

👉Selects a small group of local providers

👉Sends one request to multiple businesses at once

👉Prioritizes companies that are highly rated, responsive, and available

👉Keeps the entire experience inside Google - making them THE MARKETPLACE

If you’re not included in that flow, you’re not just ranking lower -
you’re removed from consideration entirely.

This is no longer about being found.
It’s about being selected by Google at the exact point of purchase intent.

Homeowners no longer need to visit your website to choose a service provider.

Google now controls the decision moment.

Are you in - or out? Our breakdown, linked below, delves into how you can position your business to be one of those chosen few in the 'get competitive quotes' section, and also includes a video walkthrough of the whole process.

Everyone is talking about brand mentions and brand citations - especially in the world of AEO. But does anyone stop to consider the real difference between the two?

AI Search Reality Check: Mentions ≠ Citations

(And Google Has Been Telling Us This All Along)

In the age of AI search, not all visibility is created equal.

There’s a critical difference most brands still miss:

A mention means you were named.
A citation means you were trusted.

This isn’t new - it directly aligns with Google’s E-E-A-T framework
(Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trust).

Here’s how it maps:

• Mentions = Awareness
• Citations = Trust & Authority

When an AI system cites your brand, it’s doing what Google’s algorithms have always done behind the scenes:

Selecting sources it believes are experienced, authoritative, and trustworthy enough to support an answer.

That’s why AI search flips the old SEO playbook:

👉 Trust comes before traffic
👉 Authority comes before rankings
👉 Citations come before consistent visibility

This is also why GA4 and traditional rankings alone can be misleading.
Much of today’s influence happens in zero-click AI answers, long before a visit ever occurs.

If you’re measuring mentions and calling it success, you’re early.
If you’re earning citations, you’re aligning with E-E-A-T - and building durable visibility.

Mentions start conversations.
Citations earn belief.

01/05/2026

Backlinks aren’t dead - but they’re no longer the primary signal.

In Digital Marketing Trend #5 for 2026, we break down a major shift in how visibility is earned in search and AI-driven discovery:

👉 Brand citations are replacing backlinks as the dominant trust signal.

AI models don’t just follow links.
They look for consistent brand mentions across:
• Digital PR
• Industry reports
• Reputable newsletters
• Conferences & expert roundups
• Trusted content hubs

If your brand isn’t being referenced in the right places, AI won’t recommend you - no matter how optimized your website is.

For brands to win in 2026, they must invest in thought leadership, digital PR, and authority-building, not just link building.

Watch Trend #5 to understand what’s changing — and how to stay visible in the age of AI search.

And now, the highly anticipated and next topic in our Digital Marketing Trends for 2026 series.

Trend #4:
Marketing attribution is finally catching up to reality.

For years, we’ve been forced to make decisions with incomplete data:
• Fragmented platforms
• Last-click bias
• Lagging reports that explain the past — not the future

In 2026, that changes.

AI-enhanced attribution is delivering what marketers have been missing:
✔ A unified customer journey across paid, organic, social, and AI search
✔ Clear visibility into multi-touch influence — not just the final click
✔ Real-time insights that inform live budget shifts
✔ A direct line from content → touchpoints → revenue

Attribution is no longer a reporting exercise.
It’s becoming a decision engine.

And when this level of clarity is paired with showing up everywhere your buyers search - from Google to AI-driven platforms - performance stops being guesswork and starts becoming predictable.

Stay tuned - more to come!

Hey everyone — stay tuned. Over the coming days, we’ll be sharing a series of Digital Marketing Trends for 2026, with new insights posted daily (or every other day).
Here’s the first one 👇

Digital Marketing Trends for 2026 — Trend #1

🔁 Freshness & Citation Velocity Are Taking Over Rankings

Search is no longer about who’s been around the longest.
It’s about who shows up most consistently, most recently, and across the most trusted sources.

In 2026, AI-driven search systems will prioritize:
• Regular content updates over static authority
• Ongoing brand mentions across credible sources
• Sustained visibility—not legacy dominance

Fresh content gives AI a reason to return.
Citation velocity tells AI who’s gaining momentum.
Together, they break ties between equally authoritative brands.

This is why we’re seeing newer, more agile brands outrank established players that stopped publishing, stopped earning mentions, or stopped evolving.

This is Trend #1 in our 2026 Digital Marketing Trends series. More to come on:
– AI-driven authority signals
– Search Everywhere Optimization (which we have already been talking about for quite some time)
– Brand visibility defense
– The death of “set it and forget it” SEO

If your strategy still relies on what worked in 2024, it’s already behind.
