        "text": "If your current SEO agency hasn’t specifically addressed voice search—question‑based content, schema, and local optimization—there’s a good chance you’re missing opportunities. Traditional SEO work alone rarely covers the nuances of voice.\n\nYou don’t need a separate provider, but you do need to confirm that voice considerations are explicitly in the scope and reporting. Ask directly rather than assuming.\n\nKey factors:\n- Whether they’re optimizing for featured snippets and question queries\n- Use of FAQ and LocalBusiness schema, not just generic metadata\n- Attention to mobile speed and Core Web Vitals\n- Monitoring of assistant‑friendly queries and “near me” performance\n\nPractically, request a review focused on voice readiness and a plan for closing gaps. If your agency can’t articulate a voice strategy, consider augmenting with specialists or changing vendors.\n\nPutting voice search on the agenda ensures you’re not stuck with 2015‑era SEO in a 2026 search ecosystem.",
