THE REALITY IN 2026

Where news and media organisations get stuck today.

01

Speed is everything, structure can't get lost

News has to be published and discoverable within minutes. Without scalable SEO workflows, every article costs precious time, or misses the structure search engines need.

02

Google News and Discover play by their own rules

Visibility in Google News and Discover depends on different signals than classic rankings: speed, authority, E E A T and technical requirements many editorial teams don't know.

03

AI overviews summarise news without the click

AI Overviews and chatbots increasingly summarise current events without the reader visiting the source. Staying visible in those summaries is becoming as important as the click itself.

04

Local and regional scale needs its own approach

Managing multiple editions, cities or regions without duplicate content or diluted authority is its own discipline.

WHERE WE FOCUS

The Search Ecosystem matrix for News & Media.

We weigh the four pillars differently for every sector. For News & Media, it looks like this.

Traditional Search - SEO
Scalable article SEO, news article schema and technical speed as a ranking factor.
AI Search
Staying visible and cited in AI overviews and chat answers about current topics.
Retail Search
Barely relevant, unless there's a commercial shop or marketplace component.
Social Search
YouTube and social platforms for video content and distributing news stories.
APPROACH

How we build it.

Three pillars get full attention. Retail search isn't relevant for most news and media organisations.

01

Traditional Search - SEO

We build scalable SEO workflows for editorial teams: schema architecture, technical speed and keyword research at scale, per city, region or theme.
