How SEO Has Changed for 2026
Search Intent Over Keywords
Google now understands what users mean, not just what they type. Modern SEO focuses on matching intent, instead of stuffing pages with exact keywords.
Al-Powered Algorithms
Updates like RankBrain, BERT, and Gemini analyze context and behaviour. SEO today requires structured data, clear content hierarchy, and natural language.
Experience Signals Matter More
Core Web Vitals, site speed, and stucture are now direct ranking factors. A fast, stable, and user-friendly site can outperform competitors with poor UX.
Entity-Based Optimization
Search engines now connect brands, topics, and people through entities. Building consistent mentions helps Google recognize your business as a trusted source.
Everything Your Business Needs to Rank Better
From local SEO to content and backlinks, we cover all the work that helps your Calgary business show up first and stay ahead on Google.
