What is Search Intent?

Search intent describes what users want to achieve with a query – learn, navigate, compare, or buy.

Intent drives which content type ranks: definitions, how-tos, comparisons, or product pages. Mismatching intent and format loses rankings despite strong keywords. Glossary and FAQ pages typically serve informational intent.
