What is Semantic SEO?

Semantic SEO is the practice of structuring content around meanings—not just exact keywords. It clarifies how your topics, entities, and facts connect, so search engines and AI systems can serve your page as an answer, not just a match. In short: speak human, label clearly, link relationships.

Intent

Define questions users actually ask and the outcomes they want—decision, comparison, how-to, pricing, local.

Entities

Identify the real-world things in your story: products, brands, places, people, categories, and attributes.

Relationships

Explain how entities connect: is-a, part-of, located-in, alternative-to, compatible-with.

Good Semantic SEO looks like

  • Clear page purpose aligned to a single primary intent
  • Concise definitions and examples that stand alone without jargon
  • Entities named unambiguously, with precise schema.org types
  • Internal links that reflect relationships (parent, child, sibling)
  • Evidence: images, specs, pricing context, or references where needed

What to avoid

  • Keyword stuffing or repeating synonyms without meaning
  • Thin pages that don’t answer the question
  • Conflicting facts across pages or schema
  • Over-broad pages targeting multiple intents at once
  • Auto-generated copy without human review

How Semantic SEO works at AMS

A practical, research-led process that keeps editors and developers aligned.

  1. 1

    Intent discovery

    Group queries into intents (informational, comparison, transactional, local). Identify gaps and overlapping coverage.

  2. 2

    Entity inventory

    List first-party entities: products, collections, services, locations, authors. Note attributes and relationships.

  3. 3

    Content model

    Define page types (guides, comparisons, FAQs, local pages) with required evidence, media, and schema per type.

  4. 4

    Structured data

    Add correct schema.org types (e.g., Product, Service, Organization, FAQPage) matching visible content.

  5. 5

    Internal linking

    Connect pillars ↔ subtopics ↔ related siblings with descriptive anchors. Avoid circular loops.

  6. 6

    Review & iterate

    Monitor Search Console by page type and intent. Improve evidence and navigation where users drop off.

Model your entities and label them clearly

Organization & people

State who you are and who writes the content. Link bios to works. Keep NAP (name, address, phone) consistent.

  • Schema: Organization, LocalBusiness (if applicable), Person
  • Signals: logo, sameAs (LinkedIn, Crunchbase, Wikipedia if present)

Products & services

Describe what you offer with attributes users compare: specs, sizes, pricing context, availability.

  • Schema: Product, Service, Offer, Review (only if genuine)
  • Evidence: photos, dimensions, lead times, FAQs

Places & coverage

For local pages, show real coverage: address, hours, WhatsApp/phone, service radius, nearby areas.

  • Schema: Place, PostalAddress, GeoCoordinates
  • Evidence: map, directions, photos of location

Information architecture that clarifies meaning

Page types & hierarchy

  • Pillars (topic overviews) → subtopics → specific how-tos or comparisons
  • Collections (category pages) link to details; details link to related alternatives
  • FAQs exist where users hesitate: pricing, sizing, availability

Internal links & anchors

  • Use descriptive anchors (“Compare finishes”) over generic (“Learn more”)
  • Limit links to what helps the decision now; avoid noisy link clouds
  • Breadcrumbs and HTML sitemaps improve discoverability

Canonical & intent safety

  • Avoid multiple pages for the same intent; merge or canonicalise
  • Use noindex,follow for thin/duplicate variations while you consolidate
  • Keep facts and schema consistent across near-duplicate pages

Examples that make meaning obvious

Definition pattern

Lead with a one-line definition, then add a short example. Link to related subtopics.

“Granite flooring” is natural stone tiling known for high durability and low porosity. 
Example: kitchens, high-traffic lobbies, and outdoor patios in dry climates.

Comparison pattern

Use consistent attributes and call the winner per use case.

Granite vs Marble
• Durability: Granite (✔) 
• Finish variety: Marble (✔)
• Heat resistance: Granite (✔)
• Best for: Granite → kitchens; Marble → bath & feature walls

FAQ pattern

Answer in 1–2 sentences, then offer a next step. Keep schema in sync.

Q: Is sealing required annually?
A: Most polished granites need sealing every 12–18 months. Check absorption test results for your exact stone.

Semantic SEO FAQs

Simple answers to common questions. If you don’t see yours, send us a note.

Is Semantic SEO different from topical authority?
Topical authority is the result you earn by fully covering a subject. Semantic SEO is the method: modeling intents, entities, and relationships to get there.
Do we need schema on every page?
Not every page. Use schema when it clarifies the entity and supports rich results. Always ensure schema reflects visible content.
How quickly can we see impact?
Intent and internal linking improvements can lift impressions within weeks. Strong, compounding results build over months as coverage deepens.
Is AI-written content okay?
AI can assist with outlines and drafts. AMS requires human review, fact checks, and examples before publishing.
