Traditional SEO relied on lexical signals. Now, with vector embeddings, we're moving into semantic-first SEO.
Here’s where vectors are unlocking serious potential:
🧠 Semantic Content Clustering – Using cosine similarity to group content by meaning, not just keyword overlap. Great for pruning, topic authority, and internal linking.
🔗 Contextual Internal Linking – Identify semantically related nodes at scale. No more relying on exact-match anchor logic.
📈 Query Understanding in On-Site Search – Embeddings enable intent-aware results. Major boost for UX + conversions.
🔍 Smarter Content Recommendations – Replace "related articles" with vector-similarity scoring. Results feel eerily relevant.
💡 Bonus: Integrate with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to power SEO-aware GenAI workflows.
This isn’t the future. It’s happening.
If you’re still optimizing by strings, you're missing half the picture.
