A few years ago, when a client asked us to “get them on Google,” the job had a clear shape. You researched keywords, you built pages, you earned links, and you watched rankings climb. That world hasn’t disappeared, but it has been rewired. Today a customer is just as likely to ask ChatGPT who to hire, tell Perplexity what…

Google I/O 2026 turned Search into an AI answer engine and made ‘Google Zero’ real. Here’s why strong SEO foundations paired with AEO are how your business stays visible.
