This week in digital marketing 👇 26 May – 1 June 2026 🗞️

🔴 Google May core update is causing major volatility.
Some sites down 50%, others surging. Hold off on big changes until the rollout finishes. (SE Roundtable)

🔍 Google adds preferred sources and highly cited labels to AI Overviews.
Plus a new perspectives carousel for developing topics. New routes to visibility inside AI search results. (Search Engine Land)

🎯 Google Ads now offers real-time policy feedback during campaign creation.
Faster ad approvals and fewer launch delays. About time. (Search Engine Land)

⚠️ Google Ads is deleting historical data from 1 June.
Hourly, daily and weekly data older than 37 months is going starting today. Export it now before it's gone. (SE Roundtable)

💬 OpenAI confirms conversion-focused ChatGPT ads are coming in June.
Set up the OpenAI Pixel or Conversions API now to get early access. Performance advertising on ChatGPT is becoming very real. (SE Roundtable)

What does 17 years of regulated SEO expertise actually look like in practice? 🤔

It means knowing which publishers will genuinely consider outreach from an iGaming brand in the current regulatory climate. 🎰

It means knowing how to structure eCommerce content that satisfies both search intent and FCA or MHRA guidelines at the same time. 🛒

It means understanding why a crypto brand's technical SEO needs to account for rapid regulatory changes without disrupting organic performance. 🔐

It means knowing what responsible gambling disclosure requirements mean for on-page optimisation, not in theory but in practice. ♠️

It means knowing how to build adult sector links when most publishers categorically refuse the outreach. 🔞

This knowledge is not off the shelf. It is built through years of doing the work in sectors that demand it. 📈

If you want an agency that brings this to your brand from day one, we would love to hear from you. 👇

🗞️ This week in digital marketing 20-26 May👇

Google I/O week delivered some of the biggest search and ads news of the year. Here's your rundown 👇

🔴 Google's May 2026 core update is rolling out.
Second broad update of the year, launched 21 May. Monitor your Search Console closely and hold off on big changes until it settles. (Search Engine Journal)

🔍 Google redesigned its search box for the first time in 25 years.
The new Intelligent Search Box expands as you type, accepts images, files and video, and offers AI-powered suggestions beyond autocomplete. Fewer clicks to websites could follow. (Search Engine Land)

🎯 Google Marketing Live 2026 was the most AI-heavy GML yet.
Gemini is now the engine behind Google Ads. Conversational ad formats, Ask Advisor, new Asset Studio tools and AI checkout all announced. Big changes incoming for advertisers. (Search Engine Land)

💬 ChatGPT Ads now has geo-targeting and daily budget controls.
The platform is maturing fast. If you haven't considered ChatGPT as a paid channel yet, now is the time to start paying attention. (Search Engine Roundtable)

📝 About half of all web content is now AI-written.
A study of 55,000 pages confirms what many suspected. Original expertise and first-hand experience are now your strongest differentiators in SEO. (Search Engine Land)

⚠️ Google's llms.txt guidance is contradicting itself.
Official docs say ignore it. Lighthouse flags if you don't have one. The SEO community is confused, and rightly so. (Search Engine Land)

📊 Google AI Mode has 1 billion monthly users and queries are doubling every quarter.
Average AI Mode search is 3x longer than a traditional one. Search behaviour is changing fast. Are your content and SEO strategies keeping up? (Search Engine Journal)

Real results. Real client. One of the most competitive sectors in SEO.

✅ +213% increase in organic traffic
✅ +121% increase in transactions
✅ +320% increase in top 10 keyword positions

These are the results we delivered for Luxury Toy X, a U.S. based luxury adult retailer operating in a vertical where most agencies refuse to work and most publishers refuse outreach.

🗣️ "It's refreshing to work with an agency who is so open to working alongside brands such as mine. I'm impressed with the results the team have delivered so far."

Product page optimisation. Content marketing. Targeted link building. Organic authority built where others said it could not be done.

Most agencies say no to adult brands. We have been saying yes since 2008.

🗞️ This week in digital marketing: 12–19 May 2026 👇

A big week across AI ads, analytics and search. Here's your quick-fire rundown 👇

🤖 OpenAI now lets retailers run product feed ads in ChatGPT. Connect your catalogue, set filters, and let the platform generate ads automatically. Up to 1 million SKUs supported. Google Shopping but make it conversational. (Search Engine Land)

📊 Google Analytics now tracks ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude traffic separately. A new AI Assistant channel in GA4 automatically classifies AI referral traffic. No setup needed. Finally. (Search Engine Roundtable)

📈 Google Ads is testing prompt-driven reporting. Describe the report you want in plain English, and the platform builds it. AI-powered dashboards are coming to campaign management. (Search Engine Land)

📱 Meta says social media is replacing Google for consumer discovery. A new 16-page Meta report shows shoppers are increasingly turning to social platforms to find products, with AI playing a growing role in guiding purchases. (Social Media Today)

🛒 Google is testing an AI assistant inside Merchant Center. "Merchant Advisor" surfaces recommendations and flags feed issues automatically. Useful for ecommerce teams with large product catalogues. (Search Engine Land)

⚠️ Google confirms AI search manipulation violates spam policies. Tactics designed to artificially boost visibility in AI Overviews or AI Mode are now explicitly against the rules. (SE Roundtable)

🔍 Google says stop worrying about AEO and GEO. New documentation confirms llms.txt, content chunking and special schema are all unnecessary for Google's AI features. Good SEO is still good SEO. (Search Engine Journal)

Finance SERPs are the most competitive in UK search. Here is how we compete.

You are up against comparison sites with domain ratings above 90, household-name banks with decades of brand authority, and institutional investment in content that most challenger brands cannot match.

We work exclusively in regulated sectors. Finance is one of our deepest specialisms.

Our finance SEO approach:
👉 FCA-compliant content strategy built around commercial intent
👉 Authority link building from regulated financial publishers and trade press
👉Technical SEO designed for both conversion and compliance
👉 Coverage across insurance, loans, investment, crypto, and challenger banking

The brands that win in finance SERPs combine technical excellence with genuine regulatory understanding. We have been building that combination since 2008.
