What is cross-platform SEO and why do you need it now for your online store's ranking?

Online store positioning no longer depends solely on Google. In 2025, your potential customers will be searching for recipes on TikTok, comparisons on YouTube, prices on Amazon, and answers on ChatGPT. If your brand doesn't appear on these channels, you're losing sales opportunities every second.

This is the world of cross-platform SEO: the strategy you need now to make your online store visible at all key points of the consumer journey.

What is cross-platform SEO?

Cross-platform SEO is the discipline that focuses on optimizing your presence across all relevant search engines: traditional search engines like Google, social platforms like YouTube and TikTok, marketplaces like Amazon and Etsy, voice assistants like Siri and Alexa, and even artificial intelligence engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.

In other words, it's the evolution of online store positioning . It's no longer enough to appear first on Google: your store must be discoverable, citable, and usable by very different algorithms.

Why is it important in 2025?

There are several factors that are redefining how users search; if we limit our SEO strategy to Google, we'll be losing half the market.

• Generative Results on Google (GSG): AI responds directly, without clicks.

• AI search engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity): Millions of users already use them as their primary search engines.

• Vertical searches on networks (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube): information is consumed before reaching the web.
  
  

A new approach: 360° research

To position your online store in all environments, you need to understand how users search on each platform:

How to adapt content to each digital channel?

Publishing online isn't just a matter of copying and pasting the same content everywhere. Each platform—be it Google, YouTube, or TikTok—has its own rules of the game. If you want your brand, product, or message to truly reach your audience, you must adapt what you say (and how you say it) to each channel. Here's how to do it easily:

• Google + SGE (Search Generative Experience):
  Your website should have comprehensive, well-written articles (minimum 1,200 words), with short, easy-to-read paragraphs. Add frequently asked questions (FAQs) and organize information in formats Google understands, such as step-by-step guides (HowTos) or product sheets.
  
  

• YouTube:
  Publish videos between 6 and 12 minutes long, divided into chapters and with titles designed for easy discovery. Adding automatic subtitles not only improves accessibility, but also helps search engines and artificial intelligence systems better understand your content.
  
  

• TikTok, Shorts and Reels:
  Everything moves very fast here. You have to hook your audience in the first two seconds. Use subtitles, keywords visible on screen, and videos that surprise or visually impact.
  
  

• Marketplaces (Amazon, Etsy, etc.):
  Your products must stand out. Use titles with specific (long-tail) keywords, upload at least seven high-quality images, add videos showing the product in action, and encourage your customers to leave reviews (always legal).
  
  

• Voice assistants (Alexa, Siri, etc.):
  Create FAQ pages with very short answers (about 25-30 words), use natural language, and tag that content with “Speakable” structured data so attendees can recognize it.
  
  

• Artificial intelligence engines (such as ChatGPT or Perplexity):
  Structure your content with lists, tables, and links to trusted sources. Also, make sure your website allows access to AI by adding "allow AI" to your robots.txt file.

Technical SEO and multi-channel authority

For your online store positioning to be effective in this fragmented ecosystem, you need technical consistency:

• Responsive templates with excellent mobile performance (Core Web Vitals).

• Precise structured data: Product, Event, FAQ, Podcast…

• Unified brand presence: same naming, favicon, and profiles across all platforms.

• Distributed authority: media mentions, marketplace reviews, Pinterest saves, AI mentions, etc.
