When it comes to ranking in London’s fiercely competitive search environment, SEO can’t just be about keywords and backlinks anymore. At TG Barker, we treat SEO as both an art and a mathematical science — a discipline rooted in the same logical frameworks Google itself uses to rank and index the web.
The London SEO Difference
Working in one of the world’s most dynamic digital hubs, businesses in London face a challenge: how to be seen when every competitor is shouting louder than ever. That’s where our philosophy comes in — aligning your website with Google’s mathematical models to make it algorithmically irresistible.
I’m captivated by SEO. I devour podcasts, books, and case studies daily, and I continuously test new ideas in real-world scenarios. My curiosity extends beyond search — I study conversion optimisation and user behaviour to understand what makes people take action once they land on a page.
This relentless curiosity isn’t just for show. It’s how I stay razor-sharp — and how I deliver real, mathematical, and measurable outcomes for clients.
I’m not seeking industry awards or speaking gigs. My obsession lies with the algorithms themselves — and increasingly, with how AI is reshaping SEO from the inside out.
The AI Takeover: Why SEO in 2025 Demands Mathematical Precision
With AI-generated results dominating Google’s search landscape, traditional SEO is being rewritten in real time. Having your site show up organically now requires a strategic and mathematical approach to optimisation — one grounded in the same principles that underpin AI and Google’s own machine learning models.
At TG Barker, we use mathematical frameworks to see SEO the way Google sees it — not as a checklist, but as a living, dynamic model of relationships, probabilities, and authority flow.
How to Supercharge SEO Using AI and Mathematical Models
AI and mathematics are now inseparable from search. Google’s AI systems rely on algorithms derived from graph theory, Markov models, and probability theory — and you can use the same principles to strengthen your own site structure.
1. Graph Theory: The Backbone of Google Search
Google uses graph theory everywhere — in its original PageRank algorithm, in Google Maps, and in how it models the web as a vast network of connected nodes.
- In search, web pages are nodes and hyperlinks are edges connecting them.
- In Maps, locations are nodes and roads are edges connecting routes.
For SEO, this is pure gold. When we visualise your website as a graph, we can instantly see how authority flows from your homepage through your key pages — and whether that flow is efficient or leaking away through unnecessary links.
The Practical Meaning for SEO
- Authority Concentration: Big circles (nodes) mean that page holds significant influence in your internal link structure.
- Flow Efficiency: Clean, directional arrows indicate logical flow — from homepage → services → contact/consultant pages.
- Optimisation Targets: Smaller or isolated nodes highlight where adding a contextual internal link can amplify authority.
- Validation: A compact, tidy graph (no chaotic clusters) shows that your internal structure is optimised for crawling and ranking.
By applying graph theory, we can:
- Compute fresh internal PageRank scores for all your pages.
- Create a visual map of your key pages and how they connect.
- Identify bottlenecks where link authority isn’t reaching the right pages.
Think of it like plotting routes between Slough and London — you can choose the shortest or fastest route, but the goal is always efficiency. Your internal link structure works the same way.
2. Markov Models: Predicting SEO Movement Over Time
Markov models are used by Google to estimate probabilistic movement — including how users (or PageRank) flow between pages.
In SEO, a Markov model can simulate how likely it is for authority or traffic to transition from one “state” (ranking position) to another — say, from position 11–20 → top 10 → top 3.
This allows us to:
- Forecast ranking improvements based on link changes or content updates.
- Identify steady states (pages likely to stay stable) versus volatile ones.
- Model SERP movement as a mathematical process — not guesswork.
When you understand SEO as a system of probabilities, you stop optimising blindly. You can calculate which actions have the highest probability of success.
3. Probability and Statistics: The Foundation of Machine Learning SEO
Probability and statistics form the foundation of every AI system — from ranking models to spam detection. In SEO, they’re the tools behind every smart decision about content, keywords, and performance prediction.
How This Works in Practice
- Web Page Classification: Machine learning models analyse your pages (titles, meta descriptions, content) and classify them based on how well they align with search intent and best practices.
- Traffic Forecasting: Historical traffic data can be modelled statistically to forecast future performance — helping you anticipate seasonal changes or spot declining pages before it’s too late.
- Keyword & Content Analysis: AI models use clustering and statistical grouping to find semantic relationships between keywords — letting us understand what Google’s embedding models might be associating behind the scenes.
- Data-Driven Insights: Instead of relying on assumptions, we extract patterns from large datasets — discovering which optimisations actually correlate with ranking gains.
This is where probability meets performance. You can think of every SEO decision — title, link, keyword, or layout — as an experiment with a measurable probability of improving visibility.
Aligning with Google’s Mathematical DNA
Google doesn’t think in words — it thinks in vectors, probabilities, and networks. Your SEO strategy should too.
That’s why TG Barker’s approach integrates mathematics, AI, and human creativity to build websites that both algorithms and people love.
When we optimise your site, we’re not just chasing rankings — we’re reverse-engineering the models that decide them.
Our Core Methodology
- Graph Optimisation: Visualise internal linking structures and redistribute authority intelligently.
- Markov SEO Modelling: Predict ranking transitions and simulate how authority flows between content clusters.
- Semantic Mapping: Align your content topics with Google’s AI-driven semantic models (embeddings, MUM, Gemini).
- Conversion Optimisation: Once traffic arrives, we refine the user journey to turn visibility into sales, leads, and measurable outcomes.
This isn’t theory — it’s applied mathematics for real-world SEO.
