If your website contained the exact keywords a user searched for, it had a higher chance of ranking well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, AI algorithms are moving beyond simple keyword matching. They now strive to understand the search intent behind a query.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if a searcher uses the keywords &#8220;<strong>best laptops for students<\/strong>,&#8221; they're not just looking for a list of laptops. They're likely interested in affordable laptops suitable for specific purposes like programming or a Master's degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/google-search-results-example.jpg\" alt=\"Google search results example\" class=\"wp-image-84663\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/google-search-results-example.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/google-search-results-example-768x475.jpg 768w, https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/google-search-results-example-150x93.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Google now delivers results that truly address the search intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AI algorithms can also analyze factors like content structure, readability, and user engagement metrics to identify high-quality content that deserves higher rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They analyze how users interact with websites and favor websites with a positive user experience (UX), such as fast loading times and a mobile-friendly design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AI allows search engines to personalize search results based on the individual search history, location, and preferences.
