How People Search in 2026

How People Search in 2026

Search behaviour has changed. In 2026, customers no longer type long keywords — they ask questions, talk to AI, and search by intent.

Instead of:

“SEO company Malaysia”

They now ask:

  • “Who can help my business get more Google leads?”

  • “Which supplier is reliable?”

  • “Best service provider near me?”

This is where SEO + GEO + AEO work together.

What This Means for Businesses

  • SEO helps your website rank

  • GEO helps AI engines understand your business entity

  • AEO helps your content answer real customer questions

If your website only focuses on keywords and not answers, AI will skip you.

Winning Strategy

✔ Industry-specific content
✔ Location-based context
✔ FAQ-driven pages
✔ Structured data for AI understanding

Businesses that adapt early dominate both Google Search and AI-generated answers.
