As AI continues to reshape search, user behaviour evolves, and Google’s algorithms keep rewriting the rulebook, SEO in 2026 is set to look very different from today. To help marketers prepare, we are asking leading SEO experts (across content, AI, PR, and link building) to share their predictions for the strategies, tools, and trends that will matter most in 2026. From content creation and technical search to E-E-A-T and automation, we want to know what the industry is expecting next.
Please answer at least one of these questions with your thoughts.
1. Looking ahead to 2026, what do you predict will be the single most influential trend in SEO?
2. Which emerging technologies or changes in search behaviour do you think will reshape SEO next year?
3. How do you expect the SEO strategies or priorities to evolve in 2026 compared to 2025?
Please also describe your role, how you would like to be credited, and provide your website so we can include it in the feature if chosen.
