EP79: SEO & AI: Evolution Or Extinction?
Manage episode 399643938 series 2775241
Gareth Cunningham joins Tessa Burg on the Leader Generation podcast to challenge the notion that SEO is dead due to AI advancements.
Gareth, a search expert, argues that the integration of AI into SEO is not entirely new. Google already uses AI and machine learning to optimize search results, detect spam and match content with search intent. He views AI as an enhancement to SEO rather than its replacement.
Here are a few topics Gareth and Tessa cover in this episode:
- Impact of Generative AI on SEO
- Evolution of search strategies
- Shifts in SEO practices
- UX/UI integration with SEO
- Semantic web and authority
- Future directions in search technology
- Role of Google in shaping search trends
Don't miss this exchange. It promises forward-thinking ideas about search and optimization that you can apply to your own digital marketing.
