SEO in 2025: What Every Business Should Know

AI Overviews, Core Web Vitals and E-E-A-T — how search changed and what to do about it.

SEO in 2025 has changed significantly. Google AI Overviews absorb traffic from the first page, new Core Web Vitals demand faster sites, and E-E-A-T matters more than ever for rankings. Here's what businesses need to know right now.

What changed in search in 2025

  • AI Overviews show for 30–40% of queries — fewer clicks to websites
  • INP (Interaction to Next Paint) replaced FID in Core Web Vitals
  • Helpful Content System continues to demote 'thin' content
  • Local search becomes more important for Ukrainian domains

What still works

Despite the changes, core SEO principles remain. Quality content, technical SEO, and relevant links are still fundamental.

  • In-depth topical content (1500+ words for key pages)
  • Topic cluster site structure
  • Performance: LCP < 2.5 sec, INP < 200 ms
  • Local SEO and a complete Google My Business profile

Priority for Ukrainian businesses

For most local businesses in Ukraine, Google My Business brings more customers than organic search. Make sure your profile is fully filled out, has current hours, photos, and regular reviews.

Quick wins for 2025

  • Fix site speed (especially mobile)
  • Rewrite outdated pages for Helpful Content requirements
  • Update and expand Google My Business
  • Collect 10+ new Google reviews
