This beauty is coming together and I couldn't be more excited to launch and "build in public" in 2025 🚀 Covid took out childcare and delayed progress the last two weeks, but we're in a 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ to achieve our Jan soft launch goal! #ai #marketing #growth #seo #digitalpr #aitools
TIL I'm in the first 1% of ChatGPT users, and the top 1% of msgs sent. AI isn't a shortcut; it’s a Matrix(movie)-like efficiency gain. If you're not using it every single day, you shouldn't be talking about how it'll impact the SEO industry.

“It’s called GEO!” “No, it's AEO!” 🥴 The acronym war is loud, which is why I wanted to explore the data for @searchengineland.bsky.social:

• GEO leads awareness (84%) and adoption (42%)
• AI Search Optimization leads hiring (11k+ jobs)

Circa ’24–’25 felt like a decade packed into a year. Logging off today, I saw the email that Piper’s ashes were finally sent off to sea, almost a year after losing Gator, my first dog after college, adopted the same year my mom passed in ’11. Dogs heal us in ways nothing else can. Hug yours for me ♥️

The Cloudflare jokes on LinkedIn are the exact type of humor I needed to break up this pre-holiday sprint week

I'm so tempted to do a Newsjacking campaign on this for Fractl 👀 But I'm finishing several other studies before the holidays, sooo someone else in the SEO industry should have at it! 🤓 📊 📰 #digitalpr

Scoping out my LinkedIn analytics when I came across this great data + CTA 👀 It was fun dipping my toe back into 5 speaking gigs this year, mostly bc it brought some of you back into my orbit at a fascinating time in our industry. Maybe 2026 is the year I actually… get social again? 🙈

Loved the animations and story arc! As a FL SEO, I might need to make this my new bedtime story.

After the very rancorous online debate, it looks like housefresh.com more than made their recovery post-HCU decimation.

I wonder how much is:

-> Algo updates
-> Manual intervention (it was very public)
-> Equity earned *because* of the loss (links/brand searches)
-> Things they changed

SEOs please stop saying “The Algorithm”. There’s tons and tons of algorithms. Here’s just a very small example of sorting algorithms etc from my study app and these (and absolutely tons more) will be used in search.
