How AI is Changing SEO with Mike Witham, Head of Search at 97th Floor | Ep. 426

Don’t listen to everything you hear…in the AI age, SEO is NOT dead. It’s just expanding. Guest Mike Witham of 97th Floor Agency breaks down what it all means. Some people thought AI would kill SEO, but the truth is that SEO isn’t going anywhere. We just have to learn how to partner with AI to optimize search, especially when it comes to showing up in AI summaries. Marketers have to adapt to new search rules, plus AEO and GEO capabilities. What’s the difference between using AI and using a search engine to find information? The key is keywords: while people are searching via AI in an experimental way, SEO thrives on keywords. You have to make sure you’re optimizing for that to drive traffic. Should you ask AI for sources? And if you do, will it provide credible ones? Plus, we’re in the age of chatbots and relevancy. What are some good tools to make sure your chatbots are not only giving relevant information, but accurate information, too? If you’re looking to level up your SEO knowledge and anticipate what’s going on with AI, AEO/GEO, this is the episode for YOU.
