SEO, AEO, and GEO aren't the same thing. Understanding the difference is essential: The vast majority of businesses still optimise for SEO alone.  But that's only because they haven't realised what's changed. They are now competing for attention with SEM, PPC, and AI Overviews... They bet losing hands because they refuse to accept the game has changed. Visibility is fragmenting across three layers: SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) This is the model we've optimised for over the past 20 years. AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) Get your content extracted into answer boxes, on Google and

I can't say this enough... Hiring a Marketing Manager? A Marketing Manager is not a Social Media Manager. A Marketing Manager is not a Paid Media Manager. A Marketing Manager is not an SEO Manager. A Marketing Manager is not a Copywriter. A Marketing Manager is not an Email Marketing Manager. A Marketing Manager is not an Events Co-Ordinator. A Marketing Manager is not a Brand Manager. A Marketing Manager is not an Affiliate Marketing Manager. A Marketing Manager is not a PR Manager. Those are separate roles. Separate disciplines. Separate playbooks. Separate measures of success.

I mentioned "SEO on LinkedIn" 4 years ago. Just last week, LinkedIn shared their guide. They call it "How to optimize your owned content for AI search": https://lnkd.in/d2g9CSRp As someone who's been in the game for 17 years, I could see AI search replace Google search from a mile away. So I've been playing this game for years. (taught my clients too 😊) Here are 5 things you should ALWAYS do so your LinkedIn content ranks higher in AI searches: 1. Write "steps" as imperatives (for non-grammar nerds, this means using "active", not "ing" forms of verbs) 2. Add ALT descriptions to your ima

SEO was never "easy"... but it was simpler.  Then the behavioural shift happened that you cannot ignore. And now SEO is not just about Google anymore. It's expanded to LLMs and AI Overviews on Google. You might not even know if you're visible in these AI responses or not... (Btw, Searchable has a free tool that checks your visibility and gives you a full report: https://lnkd.in/g6XApkfm) ChatGPT processes 2.5 billion searches daily. And a good chunk of those are going to determine purchases... Businesses are still in denial about it, but I suggest you don't be. Here's what you nee

We thought AI was killing organic traffic. Turns out… Google is just charging more for it. For months, the narrative was simple: AI Overviews are stealing clicks. But Aleyda Solís just published a SERP study (Jan 2025 vs Jan 2026 across multiple verticals), and the picture is bigger. Yes, AI presence surged. But the biggest, most consistent shift? Text ads. Across every vertical analyzed: - Classic organic click share dropped significantly. - Text ads gained 7–13 percentage points. - In product-heavy spaces, paid now captures up to a third of all clicks. - Zero-click rates stayed mostl

If someone tells you SEO is dead, gently remind them that: - Google still sends 190x more traffic to websites than ChatGPT. - SEO isn't competing with AI search. AI search is a new channel that runs on the same fundamentals — structured content, authority, relevance. - The brands winning in AI answers are the same brands that invested in SEO for the last decade. - The playbook didn't change. The distribution channels multiplied.

I've been doing SEO for 17 years and the best advice I can give you is boring as f*** Build links (internal and external). Improve your titles. Update content that's gone stale. Build actual authority over time. No hack. No "one weird trick." Just small improvements that compound over months while everyone else chases the next shiny thing. Most people quit after a few weeks because nothing dramatic happened yet. That's the whole point. SEO rewards patience more than intelligence.

Relying completely on Google SEO is a thing of the past. AI citation should be your focus:  99% of marketers are still optimising for Google. Meanwhile, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude are reshaping search. (If you want to quickly check how they are impacting your website,  We have a free agent you can try: https://lnkd.in/gasKu7jB) Each AI engine handles citations differently.  Here's how to optimise your content for all three: ChatGPT: The Volume Engine ↳ Citations appear in separate "Sources" panel ↳ Needs authoritative domain signals ↳ Loves structured FAQ formats ↳ Target high-v

Google just broke the wall between SEO and paid ads, and most businesses have no idea it happened.   I've run hundreds of tests across our agency after this update, and the same eight problems keep showing up in the sites that are losing ground to competitors in both organic and paid.   In this video, I walk you through every fix step by step, from page speed and website copy to schema markup and trust signals, so your site works with Google's AI instead of against it.   These aren't hacks. They're the fundamentals that actually move the needle right now.

”SEO is dead.” How many times have you heard that... It isn’t, it’s just changed drastically: There's no excuse for neglecting your SEO.  Google still handles 8 billion search queries per day. If you want to rank in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, etc,  You need to have AEO and GEO as part of your strategy as well. (If you're looking for immediate AEO suggestions...  We built a free AI Agent at Searchable you can experiment with for that: https://lnkd.in/gVwCJJDX) If you're not optimising for AI Search now, while it's still an advantage,  You could lose more revenue than you

SEO agencies are DEAD. I fired my $20k/mo agency and asked Claude to do it. Instead of my lame agency executing on helpful content, building links, and driving SQLs that gave us positive ROI for years, I now get: • 40-page useless audits • 145 random keyword clusters • 19 AI-generated slop roadmaps • 677 AI articles published leading to a spam penalty • Get to rely on my own intuition based on zero experience • Do all the work myself instead of running the actual business • Pray that the strategy Claude made in 1 second is perfectly tailored to me Revenue is down 87% but the charts look i

Zapier just released 75+ free AI Agents. These are the 20 best ones for automating your business I've spent years hiring people and writing SOPs to handle this kind of work. It works. But it takes time to build. That's where AI agents are starting to change things. Zapier Copilot is where this clicks for me. Here's why: 1. Pick a template that matches a recurring task in your business. 2. Open Copilot and tell it what to change in plain English.  3. Deploy it and move on to the work that actually needs you.
