Hiring a Technical SEO Expert in the Philippines: What to Know

Bing sent 9.45% of desktop search referrals in the Philippines in August 2026 but 1.25% on mobile, per Statcounter, so desktop-heavy B2B sites need Bing checks.

The Filipino language code trips up hreflang

17.3% of sites with Philippine hreflang entries used an invalid code in Seotal's September 2026 study, mostly "fil", which is not an ISO 639-1 code. A technical SEO expert should use "tl" or "en-PH" so Google reads the tags.

Half of top homepages carry schema

49.5% of top Philippine homepages carried structured data in Seotal's September 2026 study, and 14.0% used Microdata, the highest share of six countries. Ask a technical SEO expert to move old Microdata to JSON-LD, the format Google recommends.

Many top sites block AI crawlers

23.9% of top Philippine domains with a readable robots.txt blocked GPTBot, the highest of six countries in Seotal's September 2026 study. A technical SEO expert should check whether a Cloudflare setting blocks AI crawlers on your site.
