GFMs vs Semantic Clusters- mapping Local SEO (Graph Foundation Models)

Brian Kato discusses Graph Foundation Models (GFMs) versus semantic clusters or semantic mapping in the context of GBP (Google Business Profile) and website optimization. *TL;DR: The Main Differences* *Semantic Topical Maps* are for organizing your topics. Topical maps are hierarchical. *GFM or Cluster Models* show the intent, relationship, and weighted metrics on the nodes and edges. GFM clusters are interlinked and networked. *In-Depth Analysis* GFMs go beyond just covering the depth of a topic to also cover the breadth, looking at leading indicators as opposed to the lagging indicators of topic maps. GFMs are described as a more advanced and complex way to look at weighted content siloing. They are an anticipation or leading edge indicator of where things might move within a graph, as opposed to only showing existing data about a topic. GFMs can help integrate informational types of content into a larger brand strategy using social posts, while focusing on the transactional or mid-to-bottom-funnel intent for actual conversion. A GFM example shows considerations for pillar nodes, primary, secondary, and tertiary nodes, and the search intent (informational, transactional, etc.). This is important for optimizing your GBP or website. Semantic maps help with stronger local pack visibility, understanding the broader scope of your website, lower crawl waste, and better content indexation. Semantic mapping helps expand the understanding of who you are, what you do, and where you do it, which can benefit E-A-T signals. In any model, it's recommended to look at the *node weight* (how important the node is to the topic, service, or product). In semantic mapping, the *edge weight* shows how strong the relationship is between one node and the next. For example, proximity and local pack ranking have a very well-known and highly correlational relationship. *Limitations* *GFM Fails* when the inputs are wrong, the model is unweighted, the industry is relatively unknown, or the data freshness is poor. GFM amplifies reality, whether good or bad. *Semantic Mapping Fails* when the GBP or entity is weak or when there are no behavioral signals. The speaker emphasizes the need to understand how GFMs and semantic mappings work, including their pros, cons, and how they interlink and relate to one another.
