In short
Search that tries to understand meaning, entities, relationships, and intent instead of matching only exact keywords.
Semantic search is why pages need clear definitions, examples, related terms, and consistent context.
Where it bites
Semantic search matters when visibility depends on how machines read, cite, and summarise your pages. It rewards clear structure more than louder marketing language.
What to check
- Is the definition explicit enough to be cited?
- Does the page answer the buyer question directly?
- Is the source structure machine-readable?
