📊 New data from @alsoasked.com shows Google is aggressively increasing the number of AIOs in People Also Asked questions, with it over doubling in three months from 18% to 38% of English queries 🤯
A bar chart titled, "The percentage of People Also Ask answers that are AI-generated is growing." The chart shows the percentage of AI-generated People Also Ask (PAA) answers over three months in 2025: Jul 25: 17.8% Aug 25: 26.6% Sept 25: 37.9% A note states, "10.27 million English language live PAAs analysed, Jul-Sep 2025." The logo for AlsoAsked is at the bottom left. The data clearly shows a consistent and significant increase in the percentage of AI-generated answers in PAA results.

Time to start thinking about writing this year's Christmas quiz for the @withcandour.co.uk party 😆
Mark wearing a "F*** the Tories" sweater holds a glass of beer while standing in front of a projection screen showing a multiple-choice question about the company Candour. The person is smiling at the camera and has one hand in the pocket of their jeans. In the background, there is a laptop, chairs, and a colorful prize wheel.

Love hearing how people are using AlsoAsked; especially with all the new AI platforms and mapping out likely conversations 💙

This one from John Sukowaty 📊
A graphic with a dark blue background features a testimonial from **John Sukowaty**, a Senior SEO Strategist. A headshot of him is in a circular frame on the bottom left. The text of the testimonial reads: "AlsoAsked has completely changed how I plan content and approach SEO. It helps me uncover real user questions, build better topic clusters, and best of all, save hours on research. It's more than a keyword tool, it's a competitive edge."

Making waves🌊

An important part of the identity we developed for 2H is the wave device.
The wave represents both the drive towards decarbonisation and the the offshore world in which 2H works.

The wave flows through, linking offline and online assets and brings a sense of movement to the brand.
