Learn the small shift that makes referrals repeatable. Check out our new video training. --What happens when years of planting seeds finally meets the right market moment?Alexis Trammel is Chief Growth Officer at Stratabeat, a B2B SaaS organic growth agency. She recently transitioned from account management into a biz dev role.  But the real story is how timing and preparation collided. For years, Stratabeat was doing the unglamorous work: niching down, building LinkedIn presence, publishing original research, speaking at conferences, nurturing relationships. Then GEO (generative engine optimization) hit right as AI anxiety peaked, and suddenly the leads started flooding in. This conversation explores what it looks like when the groundwork you've been laying finally pays off, and why most agencies aren't ready when their moment arrives.What You'll Leave With:Why lead flow needs to exist before you hire a salesperson—not the other way aroundHow years of niching down positioned them to catch the GEO waveThe compounding value of original research, LinkedIn presence, and conference visibilityWhy internal sales hires often outperform external ones when the foundation is thereHow to keep planting seeds even when you're not sure which one will sproutThe seasonality reality and why "when it rains, it pours" cuts both waysTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction to Alexis Trammel and Stratabeat[02:36] The long road of niching down and eliminating services[03:19] When AI panic created unexpected demand for GEO[05:16] Original research as a lead gen and credibility play[07:46] Coming back from maternity leave to a sales opportunity[10:00] Why the lead flow has to come before the sales hire[11:47] Wearing both the sales and marketing hats[14:10] Planning for seasonality when you're riding a wave[16:41] LinkedIn as long-term brand building, not cold outreach[22:04] GEO converting better than almost everything except referrals[30:12] The relationship groundwork that makes referrals possibleMentioned Resources / Links:Stratabeat - B2B SaaS organic growth agencyNever Eat Alone by Keith FerrazziAlexis Trammell on LinkedInTom Shapiro on LinkedIn

An outdated theme (e.g., last updated in August 2025 when we're in 2026) can cost you visibility because the algorithm may perceive your site as less maintained and current.Q3: What is Theme Liquid in Shopify?A: Theme Liquid is Shopify's templating language that allows you to customize code within the closed-source platform. It's where you would add custom elements like pop-ups, tracking codes, or other modifications that aren't available through standard theme settings.Q4: Do I need to create a sitemap for my Shopify store?A: No. Shopify automatically generates and maintains your sitemap as soon as you publish pages, products, collections, and posts. This is a major advantage over WordPress, where you need to install and configure sitemap plugins and ensure there are no conflicts.Q5: What's the difference between Google Search Console and Google Analytics?A: Google Search Console is for submitting your sitemap and monitoring how search engines crawl and index your site, while Google Analytics tracks visitor behavior and traffic sources. Both are important, but they serve different purposes. You must submit your sitemap to Search Console for proper SEO.Q6: How do I fix the Wix tag indexing problem?A: Go to your Wix dashboard, click Settings (bottom left corner), navigate to SEO Settings, find the Blog Tags section, and disable the "no index" robots.txt setting that's enabled by default. This allows your blog tags to be indexed by search engines.Q7: Why should I update my footer copyright year?A: The footer copyright year (e.g., "© 2026") is on-page text that AI and search engines scan. An outdated year (like "© 2023") signals that your site may not be actively maintained, even if you've updated content elsewhere. It's a simple but important ranking signal.Q8: How should I structure product URLs for better SEO?A: Use strategic placement of descriptive words and numbers. For example, "red-roses-12-piece" is better than "12-piece-red-roses" because users scanning search results will see "red roses" first, then the number variants (6, 12, 36), creating pattern disruption that draws attention and improves pre-purchase clicks.Q9: What is Open Graph (OG) and why does it matter?A: Open Graph tags control how your content appears when shared on social media, messaging apps, and other platforms. When you send a link via WhatsApp or iMessage and see a preview with title and image, that's Open Graph data. Properly configured OG tags ensure your content looks professional when shared.Q10: Should I choose Shopify, Squarespace, or WordPress for my business?A: Choose Shopify if you're running a product-based e-commerce store and need robust selling features. Choose Squarespace if you need a quick, aesthetically pleasing site for content, portfolios, or small-scale selling. Choose WordPress if you need maximum customization, flexibility, and control (open-source), but be prepared for more technical management.Q11: What is NAP and why is it important?A: NAP stands for Name, Address, Phone number. For websites, "address" includes your domain (www address). Consistent NAP information across your website and online directories is crucial for local SEO and helps search engines verify your business legitimacy.Q12: Can I get a free website audit from Favour?A: Yes! Favour offers surface-level website audits to help identify issues like broken links, slow pages, and basic SEO problems. The audit supports multiple platforms including Shopify, Squarespace, WordPress, Webflow, Wix, Magento, Tilda, and Duda. Links are available in the episode description or through the newsletter signup.About the Podcast HostFavour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS is an SEO and digital marketing expert who specializes in helping business owners optimize their websites for search visibility and conversion.

The discussion emphasizes that the best choice depends on the project's specific requirements and the user's technical comfort level.SEO Strategy and ImplementationThe episode explores how SEO is handled on both platforms, from WordPress plugins like Yoast and Rank Math to Webflow's integrated SEO tools. It stresses that while platforms provide tools, a successful SEO strategy relies on consistent effort and quality content.Impact of Google UpdatesListeners will learn about the real-world consequences of Google's algorithm changes, including the importance of continuous link building, content updates, and monitoring search engine results pages (SERPs).Website InfrastructureThe conversation covers the technical aspects of hosting and infrastructure, contrasting the self-hosted nature of WordPress with the managed hosting provided by Webflow. This includes considerations of scalability, performance, and DevOps.Analytics and TrackingThe importance of comprehensive analytics is highlighted, going beyond basic platform-specific metrics to include tracking AI mentions and utilizing tools like Google Search Console to gain a deeper understanding of website performance.Timestamps[00:00] Introduction: WordPress vs. Webflow[03:37] Google Algorithm Update Discussion with Ryan[07:00] SEO Strategy & The Importance of Backlinks[20:00] Comparing Platform-Specific Features[26:00] Hosting, Infrastructure, and Scalability[32:00] WordPress's Dominance in the Market[38:00] Technical Requirements and Maintenance[47:00] Integrating Email Marketing with Flowdesk[50:00] The Future of Analytics and AI Tracking[56:00] Best Practices for Website Development[72:30] Closing Remarks and Preview of Next EpisodeFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)1. Which platform is better for a beginner with no coding experience?Webflow is generally considered more beginner-friendly due to its visual editor and managed hosting, which simplifies the setup and maintenance process. WordPress, while powerful, has a steeper learning curve and requires more hands-on management of hosting, plugins, and security.2. Can I achieve good SEO results on both WordPress and Webflow?Yes, both platforms offer robust tools to implement a strong SEO strategy. The key to success is not the platform itself, but the consistent application of SEO best practices, such as creating high-quality content, building quality backlinks, and optimizing for relevant keywords.3. How important are plugins for a WordPress site?Plugins are essential for extending the functionality of a WordPress site. They can add features for SEO, e-commerce, security, and more. However, it is crucial to use well-coded plugins from reputable sources, as an excessive number of plugins or poorly-coded ones can slow down your website and create security vulnerabilities.4. What are the main cost differences between WordPress and Webflow?Webflow operates on a subscription model with different pricing tiers based on features and traffic. WordPress is open-source and free to use, but you will incur costs for hosting, domain registration, premium themes, and plugins. The total cost for a WordPress site can vary widely depending on your specific needs.5. What was the key takeaway from Ryan's experience with the Google update?The main lesson from Ryan's story is that SEO is an ongoing process.

Is SEO Dead in 2026? SEO is not dead, it's evolving. While Google still dominates with 1.63 trillion visits (26x more than ChatGPT's 47.7 billion), the key to success in 2026 is integrating AI into your SEO strategy. Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks it down today.Traditional SEO alone is becoming obsolete. This episode explores how to treat your website as intellectual property, the importance of content freshness, and why "your voice is your invoice" when it comes to differentiated messaging.Key Learning Topics1. SEO Has Evolved Into an "Exposure Engine"SEO reveals what your website is missing and how to show up in both traditional search and AI platforms (LLMs). Without AI integration, you're using outdated marketing.2. AI-SEO Integration is Essential39% see results within 1-2 months with AI-generated content; 26% in under one month. Organic SEO visibility directly impacts AI discoverability.3. Your Website is Intellectual PropertyTreat your domain like a plot of land and your website as the building. The "last modified" date signals freshness to search engines.4. "Your Voice is Your Invoice"If you're not selling, you're not saying anything different. Stories sell better than facts. Be provocative and unique in your messaging.5. Content Repurposing StrategyOne piece of content → 5-10 blog posts → e-book → lead magnet → courses. Stack your value ladder without reinventing the wheel.6. Preparation Drives Success"What you do off the field makes you an all-star on the field." Do the work before the work—send prep materials, plan content in batches.7. The Difference: Being Heard vs. Being HiredVisibility without differentiation doesn't convert. Say what competitors won't say to turn attention into revenue.8. Platform-Specific OptimizationGoogle/YouTube favor mobile; ChatGPT sees more desktop usage.

You must optimize for both search engines and AI platforms.Q: How long to see results with AI-integrated SEO?A: 39% see results in 1-2 months; 26% in under one month with AI-generated content.Q: What does "your voice is an invoice" mean?A: What you say directly impacts revenue. If you're not selling, you're not saying anything different from competitors. Speak up with unique value.Q: Why is "last modified" important?A: It signals to search engines that your site is active and relevant. Fresh content ranks better; stale content suggests abandonment.Q: Being heard vs. being hired—what's the difference?A: Being heard is visibility; being hired is conversion. You need provocative, differentiated messaging to convert attention into clients.Q: How do I repurpose content effectively?A: Create one piece → expand to 5-10 blog posts → compile into e-book → create lead magnet → develop courses. Maximize ROI without recreating.Q: Why optimize for AI if Google dominates?A: AI platforms pull from sites ranking in organic search. No organic visibility = no AI visibility. Plus, AI is growing rapidly—optimize now for the future.Q: What's "doing the work before the work"?A: Preparation that makes execution efficient: sending prep videos before calls, batching content creation, planning your ecosystem in advance.Q: How important is mobile optimization?A: Critical.

However, ChatGPT is desktop-heavy (4.19B vs 1.24B mobile).Q: What's the biggest SEO mistake in 2026?A: Treating SEO as traditional marketing without AI integration, and neglecting content freshness through regular updates.Key TakeawaysSEO is evolving, not dying—AI integration is now mandatoryGoogle: 1.63T visits vs ChatGPT: 47.7B—search still dominates39% see results in 1-2 months with AI-integrated contentYour voice is your invoice—differentiation drives revenueTreat websites as intellectual property requiring maintenance"Last modified" dates signal relevance to search enginesStories sell better than facts—focus on transformationOne content piece can become multiple revenue streamsBeing heard ≠ being hired—you need unique messagingOrganic SEO enables AI discoverability—can't skip the foundationMobile-first for Google/YouTube; desktop-heavy for ChatGPTPreparation (work before work) separates all-stars from averageTraditional SEO without AI is obsolete marketingContent freshness and regular updates are non-negotiableYour harvest is determined by your hustleSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Is the biopsy needle more dangerous than the cancer itself? In this episode, Dr. Geo sits down with Dr. Mark Emberton, Dean of Medical Sciences at UCL and a global leader in urologic oncology. We dive deep into the "See and Treat" revolution—a massive shift in prostate cancer care that moves away from "blind" invasive biopsies toward precision imaging like MRI and PSMA PET scans.Dr. Emberton explains why many prostate cancers found through traditional methods are "biological non-events" that never needed treatment, and how younger men (ages 40-50) can better navigate their diagnosis. We also discuss the future of focal therapy, the role of AI in radiology, and the groundbreaking "Transform" study that aims to change prostate screening forever.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:✅ Why a normal MRI (PI-RADS 1-2) might mean you can skip the biopsy entirely.✅ The difference between "visible" tumors on imaging vs. microscopic disease.✅ How PSA density acts as the crucial "tie-breaker" for indeterminate results.✅ The future of "See and Treat": Targeting lesions while avoiding surgery side effects.✅ Why tumor location (Anterior vs. Posterior) changes your treatment options.✅ How AI and new magnets are making MRI screening cheaper and faster.

In this special episode, Joe and Robert answer all the questions from the This Old Marketing audience.  How do backlink strategies (SEO) and citations (AEO) work together, and what unified content strategy can help brands earn both? In the age of GEO, how should membership organizations decide what content to keep free versus behind a paywall, especially when balancing search visibility with exclusive expert value? As AI takes over more execution, will small businesses and solopreneurs still need and pay for human marketing strategy, and how can independent consultants differentiate and stay relevant in an AI-first world? Did the Netflix series about the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders measurably impact the team's brand or game viewership, and is it a model for how entertainment content can elevate a sports franchise's marketing? Should marketers clearly separate "content marketing" (audience-building) from "sales enablement content" (purchase support), and does lumping them together lead to bad strategy and wrong KPIs? If you were starting from zero today, with AI flooding every channel, what would you build first to create real audience trust and attention over the next five years, and what would you completely ignore that most marketers are still chasing?

Your brand content isn't “showing up.” It's getting summarized, re-ranked, and sometimes straight-up misrepresented by AI—and your pipeline won't tell you why. In a world where buyers ask ChatGPT first, the homepage isn't your front door anymore. The chat box is.In this episode, Kevin White (Head of Marketing at Scrunch) delivers a much-needed reality check on AI Search: there are no true “experts” yet, the platforms are a black box, and anyone selling guaranteed hacks is basically selling essential oils for your funnel. We also explore:The one metric that matters first: “brand presence” (aka: do explaining you?)Why AEO vs GEO is just acronym cosplayThe long-tail play that converts 6–10x because the bot did the research for your buyer

Everyone is rushing to "optimize for AI." Most are doing it wrong. In this episode, Tim Soulo, the Chief Marketing Officer at Ahrefs, cuts through the noise around AEO and GEO and explains why business owners are massively overcomplicating what visibility really means today. While AI-powered search feels new and unpredictable, Tim argues that the same core SEO principles still apply. Create genuinely useful content for your audience, and the algorithms tend to follow.

#116.What began as a plan for a casual Quickfire catch-up evolved into one of the most poignant conversations on the show. Josh sits down with his friend and former colleague Dan Jackson, and while they touch on the mechanics of the restaurant industry, the heart of this episode lies in a tribute to Dan's late wife, Stephanie Jackson. Stephanie was a beloved figure in the hospitality world whose passing left a profound impact on everyone who knew her.Dan opens up about the reality of navigating the pandemic while facing a life-altering family tragedy. He shares the story of leaving New York City for Chapel Hill, the challenges of single parenthood to three children, and the fog of grief that follows the loss of a partner. The conversation explores how he found his footing again, transitioning from the corporate structure of Union Square Hospitality Group to becoming a chef-partner at Osteria Georgi and preparing to launch his second concept, Geo's Tavern.Toward the end, the two shift gears into the originally planned rapid-fire questions. They geek out over kitchen tools, discuss the realities of scaling a restaurant brand, debate the best ways to utilize broccoli stems to reduce waste, and break down exactly how Dan makes a grilled cheese sandwich for his kids. This is an episode about the resilience of the human spirit, the community of the hospitality industry, and moving forward without forgetting the past.Links and resources

Site owners are seeing traffic to their websites drop considerably as users begin asking AI questions, instead of searching for solutions on individual sites. Value-based websites seem to be getting hit with the worst of it, as tutorials and listicles are easily presented right inside an LLM's chat window. This leaves many site owners with a dilemma - should they continue to chase SEO trends, or should they reach for something more tuned to AI, like AEO and GEO? With many websites being run by just a few staff members, resources are tight - so every missed pageview matters. In 2026, should site owners worry about SEO, GEO, or AEO? Or maybe even all of them at the same time?

Everyone is rushing to "optimize for AI." Most are doing it wrong. In this episode, Tim Soulo, the Chief Marketing Officer at Ahrefs, cuts through the noise around AEO and GEO and explains why business owners are massively overcomplicating what visibility really means today. While AI-powered search feels new and unpredictable, Tim argues that the same core SEO principles still apply. Create genuinely useful content for your audience, and the algorithms tend to follow. We dive into how traditional SEO compares to AEO and GEO, and where AI actually changes the game. Tim breaks down how large language models decide what to surface and answers a question many founders are asking right now: how much should you realistically invest in boosting AI visibility before the returns flatten out?

In this insightful episode, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks down the critical differences and essential overlaps between traditional Google SEO and the emerging field of ChatGPT SEO (optimization for AI search). The core distinction is framed as Websites vs. Conversation. While Google prioritizes structured, keyword-optimized websites, AI models like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini focus on providing direct, conversational answers.Favour Obasi-ike argues that the future of content visibility lies in establishing your website as the central anchor for all content distribution. By consistently linking your website across all platforms (YouTube, LinkedIn, podcasts, etc.), you build the domain authority and citation structure necessary for AI models to trust and cite your content. He emphasizes that AI-driven search is shifting the user experience from "clicking" on a link to "trusting" a direct answer, making the source's authority more critical than ever. The podcast episode concludes with actionable advice on technical SEO, including optimizing for page speed, Core Web Vitals, and formatting content with listicles and tables to be easily digestible by AI.Need to Book An SEO Discovery Call for Advertising or Marketing Services?>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Complimentary SEO Discovery Call with Favour Obasi-Ike⁠>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats OnlineKey Episode TakeawaysThe Fundamental Difference: Websites vs. ConversationThe core difference is in the format each search system prioritizes. Google SEO is built around ranking individual websites on search result pages (SERPs) for structured keywords. The user's journey involves clicking through to a website.ChatGPT SEO, on the other hand, is built for a conversational AI interface. The goal is to provide the perfect, direct, and trusted answer within the chat window itself, minimizing the need for a click.The New SEO Ecosystem: LLM VisibilityTo achieve LLM Visibility (Large Language Model Visibility), you must understand that search is now split between two major ecosystems.The Google/OpenAI ecosystem includes Google search, ChatGPT (using the Atlas Browser), and the associated platform, YouTube.The Microsoft/Perplexity ecosystem includes the Perplexity AI platform (using the Comet Browser) and the associated Microsoft-owned platform, LinkedIn.Actionable Steps for 2026 SEO StrategyEstablish Your Anchor: Your website must be the central hub for all your content.Distribute Your Authority: Place your website link on every third-party platform (social media, podcast directories, video descriptions).Optimize for Speed: Prioritize Core Web Vitals and page speed for both mobile and desktop to ensure a positive user experience, which Google rewards.Format for AI: Structure your content using tables, listicles, and concise, keyword-rich formatsto make it easy for AI models to extract and cite direct answers.Build Trust, Not Just Clicks: Focus on building long-term trust and authority with search engines through consistent, high-quality, and structured content.Episode Timestamps[00:00] Introduction: Google SEO vs. ChatGPT SEO, Optimization Showdown.[00:30] Defining the core difference: Google focuses on websites, ChatGPT focuses on conversation.[01:33] The connection: ChatGPT Atlas (browser) citing YouTube (owned by Google).[03:52] The goal: Use your website as an anchor for content distribution.[04:02] Understanding LLM Visibility (Large Language Model Visibility).[04:28] The emerging AI browser landscape: ChatGPT Atlas, Perplexity Comet, and the upcoming Google Disco.[05:30] The two major ecosystems: Google/YouTube/ChatGPT vs. Microsoft/LinkedIn/Perplexity.[06:15] The importance of checking your business's citations with "Google Learn About."[06:56] AI's focus on directness and specificity in answers (Siri, Alexa, etc.).[08:00] The shift from "click" to "trust" in AI-driven search results.[09:00] Why a strong website domain authority is crucial for AI citation.[10:00] The concept of "AI-friendly" content and the need for listicles and tables.[11:00] The future of search: AI-driven answers vs. traditional links.[12:00] The importance of structured data and schema for AI.[13:00] The difference between a website and a social media profile.[14:00] The need for a content mix (audio, video, text, image).[15:00] The role of a website in the new SEO ecosystem.[16:00] The power of a website's domain authority.[17:00] The shift from "click" to "trust" in AI-driven search.[18:00] The importance of technical SEO: Page Speed and Core Web Vitals.[19:00] How to build content that is easy to read and digest.[20:00] The value of brand citations and authority.[21:00] The long-term benefit of placing your website everywhere.[22:00] Final call to action: Check if your content is in table and listicle formats.[23:00] The power of tactics, strategy, and timing in SEO.[24:00] Conclusion: Build structure and trust with search engines, as they are "talking to each other."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
