Findings, priorities and a 90-day plan.
Across Japan, enterprise seo decides who gets found first. We embed with in-house teams at Fortune 1000 brands to run SEO as a compounding revenue channel โ governance, playbooks, tooling and executive reporting included.
For Japan, we adapt that playbook to local conditions: Japanese spelling and phrasing, google.co.jp SERP features, JPY reporting and JST working hours. We have delivered AI SEO programmes for Japan companies backed by SoftBank, JAFCO, Globis and TSE-listed brands, and for brands covered in Nikkei, TechCrunch Japan and Business Insider Japan. Every engagement includes a jurisdiction-appropriate MSA, a APPI-aligned DPA and a senior strategist available on JST hours whenever you need one.
Engagements across Japan are run by senior specialists with AI systems handling the volume work, so the programme ships weekly instead of quarterly.
Why Japan businesses choose us
- Local search reality. Japan buyers search on google.co.jp, compare in JPY and increasingly get their shortlist from AI assistants before they ever visit a website.
- Market conditions, not generic playbooks. Japanese SERPs are split across Google and Yahoo Japan, require native Japanese content of publishable quality and reward long-form authority over thin content.
- One accountable team. Enterprise SEO does not run in a silo here โ it is wired into the rest of your search, content and paid activity so work compounds instead of colliding.
- Measurement that matters. Every deliverable is reported against pipeline and revenue in JPY, not vanity metrics.

Search behaviour in Japan
Classic search still carries most commercial intent in Japan, with google.co.jp results and comparison pages shaping shortlists.
AI answer engines โ ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews โ increasingly summarise that same research. Enterprise SEO work only holds up if entities, structured data and verifiable claims are in place.
Paid and organic share the same audience in Japan. We use one keyword and audience model across both, so enterprise seo improvements reduce paid costs rather than duplicating them.
