#SEOForLunch
The only thing we know for certain about Google is that we cannot rely on it exclusively to build our brands/company/websites

I wrote in yesterdays #SEOForLunch about 6 companies utilizing alternate organic platforms to get in front of their audience.

Google Isn’t the Only Path to Organic Growth
Your SEO strategy should work beyond the search bar.

The Web Is Going Dark: What Happens to Google’s AI When Content Hides?

I see the path for how they switch to training via Gmail content. 🤮

This week's #SEOForLunch shows just how easy this would be for Google.

This week's #SEOForLunch is gonna ruffle some feathers.

"Google Doesn't Owe You 💩"

Entitlement to clicks is a losing mindset. Build sustainable growth without being algorithm-dependent.

🔥 SEO Loser Mindset 🔥

What separates winners from whiners?
Mindset.

Winners ship.
Losers hide behind audits.
Winners adapt.
Losers blame Google.

This week’s #SEOForLunch breaks it down 👇

Had a great chat with @suzzicks.bsky.social the other week about Google’s 4S framework and how it’s killing long-tail search…on Google.

The long tail isn’t dead, it’s just moved to YouTube, TikTok & podcasts, etc.

This is the topic of this week's #SEOForLunch 👇

The Long Tail Search Has Died. It's All Happening Outside of Google.
SEOs for years relied on "top of funnel" queries to drive brand awareness. Users are evolving and so has how they search for information.

Yesterday, I sent 12K #SEOForLunch subscribers a post on a topic that most won't touch, but it needed to be said.

"Dear C-Suite: Stop Betting Your Future on the AI Shortcut"

Featuring quotes from respected industry veterans
@lilyray.nyc and Nick Eubanks.

I'm not going to lie.

I had a ton of fun working this hero image over and over to get ChatGPT to create a Googlebot doing the griddy!

I wrote a post that goes with it, but that's secondary.🤣

Old hat SEO is finally dead.

✅ Just publishing? Not strategy.
✅ Traffic without conversions? Useless.
✅ SEO without brand? Invisible.

Google changed the rules.
You in or out?

Old Hat SEO is Finally Dead. The Bar Has Been Risen For The Next Generation.
SEO isn’t a checklist game. What once moved mountains now barely moves the needle. Critical thinking, storytelling, and cross-discipline skills win. Templates don’t.

“Guaranteed ChatGPT rankings” for $499/month?

Yeah… no.

I wrote about the next wave of SEO scams, the tools actually worth testing, and why citations > links in AI/LLM land.

8 years of #SEOForLunch... down the toilet.

It's gone but replaced with something MUCH better.

If you liked "Nick's Take," you're gonna love this pivot.
