Hey there, SEO enthusiasts! This week, we're bringing you an insightful chat with Zak Ali, the brains behind the US market of finder.com. If you’ve ever wondered how Google's recent algorithm updates and AI advancements are shaking things up for publishers, you won’t want to miss this one.
We kicked things off with a look at the Google Helpful Content Update – a real curveball for big publishers, including affiliate sites like Finder. Zak shared his thoughts on the turbulence and how AI is flipping the open web on its head.
The hot topic of AI mode in search results, especially with its current US focus, took centre stage. We explored how Finder navigates AI overviews and the shift towards zero-click searches. Spoiler alert: while traffic might take a hit, the quality of leads can actually improve.
We also chatted about ranking in AI results. It’s not just about keywords anymore; it’s about being quoted. Zak emphasised the importance of concise, skimmable content – think of it as crafting every piece for a featured snippet. Plus, the role of video content and enticing titles came up as potential game-changers.
Zak didn’t hold back on where he thinks SEO is heading. The future seems to favour those who can blend creativity with technical finesse, and those who build genuine, memorable user experiences on their sites.
For all you SEO warriors out there, the takeaway is clear: diversify your presence, keep your content concise and user-friendly, and always be ready to adapt. Oh, and don’t forget to engage with your audience beyond just the written word.

On the topic of testing: Check out this YouTube case study where Michael did a single variable test to see whether links from "write for us" sites still work or not, just because someone on twitter posted a snarky comment!

Lars Lofgren caused a bit of a stir online recently when he published a couple of in depth articles on the shady but very lucrative world of affiliate marketing on Forbes and Reddit.
With Google rewarding these two sites in particular with a lot more visibility than is reasonable, it's left them wide open to being exploited by affiliate SEO types - and that's exactly what's happened. Tune in to learn more.

Ahrefs, a leading SEO software company, has decided to up the game a little... by investing $60 million of their own money into creating a 'Google killer' search engine.
So will their search engine work, or will it be another flop in a long list of Google competitors that never went anywhere.
We dig into the new search engine and discuss some of the selling points it claims and why Ahrefs might have decided to launch something like this.

This week we've decided to go to the world of SEO Twitter and pillage content ideas from there (with credit, of course).
The inspiration for the episode came from a tweet JohnMu at Google shared - "What is your least favourite part of SEO". Lots of good comments and replies there, so we picked a few topics that we thought were interesting to chat about in this episode.
You never know, more content inspired by "SEO Twitter" might be a regular part of the show moving forward, let us know your thoughts.

We are back in action after a little break... alright, a relatively long break. We said it would only be a week off and it was actually a month, but the good news is the studio move is pretty much done and dusted and we're back in action.
This week we welcome Geoff Kennedy to the show. We came across Geoff in his previous role as head of marketing at SEO software tool SiteBulb. This is a tool we use pretty much every day in our agency business, so we thought it would be cool to get Geoff on to talk technical SEO.
Geoff has moved back in to the world of freelance SEO consulting post-SiteBulb and spends his days preparing technical audits for all sorts of websites - who better to chat to about the techier things in life.

We chat with Kyle Roof this week. Kyle needs no introduction in the SEO world after he famously (or is it infamously) proved Google doesn't really "understand" content - it's just a math formula that looks at certain inputs. To do this, he ranked a page written purely in lorem ipsum dummy content #1 in Google just by changing keywords in certain parts of the page that he thought Google's algorithm looks at.... hey presto - #1 rankings.
Kyle is also the founder of Page Optimizer Pro, a software tool for auditing and improving your onsite optimisation. We've banged on about it in the past on the show, we use it in our day-to-day workflow and have seen it generate good results for us. A many of many hats, he's also the founder of SEO agency High Voltage SEO and the SEO testing and training community Internet Marketing Gold.
We enjoyed this chat with Kyle as we touched on all sorts of SEO gold across onsite optimisation, backlinks and a few rapid fire questions about SEO myths, SEO software and underrated tactics. Enjoy!
If you enjoyed the chat why not check out Page Optimizer Pro and have a little fun with Google's algorithm yourself.

Last week we spoke about the dodgy tactics some SEO salespeople will use. This week, we're looking at the other side of the coin. It's true, not every failed campaign is the fault of a "dodgy agency". Sometimes, business owners that engage an SEO agency will contribute to their own campaign failing, often without even realising it.
We cover off the main contributing factors from the client side that we have seen over the years derail the success of an SEO campaign. If this knowledge is all out in the open it means these mistakes are less likely to be repeated, so tune in and we hope you get some value from it.
