Social Media & SEO are about to become powerful allies!

From 10th July 2025, a major shift is coming to how your business appears online – and it’s something every business owner should be aware of.

Search engines like Google and Bing will now automatically index public photos and videos from your professional social media accounts (like Instagram), showing them in search result pages. That means your latest reel, story, or post could soon be turning up in Google searches – right alongside your website and blog content.

What This Means for Your Business

This update is a game-changer for visibility, brand awareness, and reach. Social media and SEO are no longer running in parallel – they’re now fully intertwined.

Here’s why this matters:

  • Double the exposure: Your social posts now have the power to appear on both Instagram and Google – that’s a huge boost in discoverability.

  • Faster engagement: Users can stumble upon your content directly in search without needing to find you on social media first.

  • Search-first visibility: High-quality, well-optimised posts could now help drive traffic even before someone hits your website.

And the best part? You don’t have to do anything extra – the update is automatic. Unless you turn it off in your account privacy settings, your public content is eligible to be shown in search.

Why This Makes inLIFE’s Dual Packages Even More Powerful

At inLIFE, our Social Media and SEO teams work hand-in-hand to give your business the competitive edge. And now more than ever, that joint approach matters.
