Love what I do which is basically SEO 😀
Last week I was thinking - Are we going too far in Automation & AI that our core technical skills are fading out?

This week, after Google I/O, I'm left wondering: do we actually need core skills? (Ofcourse they're important but question is to what extent)

Sharing from Personal Experience

Yesterday, I was searching for some travel-related videos. I noticed that around 70% of them were created using generative AI.

At first, I didn’t mind, but after a while, I found myself longing to see real people and authentic landscapes instead of AI-generated.

Client - Traffic is Dropping - What could be the reason?

Agency 1 - Drop in traffic could be because of the Ranking drop
Agency 2 - Drop in traffic could be because of the trend/SV drop
Agency 3 - The drop in traffic could be because your TOFU/MOFU audience has shifted to LLMs or other channels.

YouTube citations in Google AI Overviews surge 25% - Its actually huge!

Why It Matters 🔍📹

Even though Google states that less than 1% of YouTube views come from search, it still heavily favors YouTube videos—especially for how-to guides, product comparisons, and visual demonstrations.

Cross-platform search share will definitely increase as we advance in the LLM era. So, optimising for all platforms will be a crucial factor moving ahead!

As per Oct'24 data:

Google 83.54%
ChatGPT 4.33%
YouTube 6.79%
Bing 1.97%
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit, Pinterest, & Perplexity - 3.37%

I want to make SEO as easy as people are showing their success on LinkedIn.

Not sure why but for me SEO is a bit complex and definitely just tweaking meta data and adding some content not working for me at least 😬

Just noticed that the HTTP version of a website is ranking 2nd for a highly competitive keyword.

SEO is unexpected.
