Google Search Console (GSC) New! Branded and Non-Branded Queries + Annotation Filters | Marketing Talk with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.This episode focuses on Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and the new features within Google Search Console (GSC).Favour discuss the recently introduced brand queries and annotations features in GSC, highlighting their importance for understanding both branded and non-branded search behavior.The conversation also emphasizes the broader strategic use of GSC data, comparing it to a car's dashboard for website performance, and explores how this data can be leveraged to create valuable content, such as FAQ-based blog posts and multimedia assets, often with the aid of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools. A key theme is the shift from traditional keyword ranking to ranking for user experience and the interconnectedness of various digital tools in modern marketing strategy.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> Need SEO Services?

Book a Complimentary SEO Discovery Call with Favour Obasi-Ike>> Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast--------------------------------------------------------------------------------As a content strategist, you live with a fundamental uncertainty. You create content you believe your audience needs, but a nagging question always remains: are you hitting the mark? It often feels like you're operating with a blind spot, focusing on concepts while, as the experts say, "you don't even know the intention behind why they're asking or searching."What if you could close that gap? What if your audience could tell you, explicitly, what they need you to create next?That's the paradigm shift happening right now inside Google Search Console (GSC). Long seen as a technical tool, recent updates are transforming GSC into a strategic command center. It's no longer just for SEO specialists; it's the dashboard for your entire content operation. These new developments are a game-changer, revealing direct intelligence from your audience that will change how you plan, create, and deliver content.Here are the five truths these new GSC features reveal—and how they give you a powerful competitive edge.1. Stop Driving Your Website Blind: The Dashboard AnalogyManaging a website without GSC is like driving a car without a dashboard. You're moving, but you have no idea how fast you're going or if you're about to run out of fuel. GSC is that free, indispensable dashboard providing direct intelligence straight from Google. But the analogy runs deeper. As one strategist put it, driving isn't passive: "when you're driving, you got to hit the gas, you got to... hit the brakes... when do you stop, when do you go, what do you tweak? Do you go to a pit stop?"You wouldn't drive your car without looking at the dashboard. So you shouldn't have a website and drive traffic and do all the things we do without looking at GSC, right?Your content strategy requires the same active management—knowing when to accelerate, when to pivot, and when to optimize. The new features make this "dashboard" more intuitive than ever, giving you the controls you need to navigate with precision.2. The Goldmine in Your Search Queries: Branded vs. Non-BrandedThe first game-changing update is the new "brand queries" filter. For the first time, GSC allows you to easily separate searches for your specific brand name (branded) from searches for the topics and solutions you offer (non-branded). This is the first step in a powerful new workflow: Discovery.Think of your non-branded queries as raw, unfiltered intelligence from your potential audience. These aren't just keywords; they're direct expressions of need. Instead of an abstract concept, you see tangible examples like:• “best practices for washing dishes”• “best pet shampoo”• “best Thanksgiving turkey meal”When you see more non-branded than branded queries, it's a powerful signal. It means you have access to a goldmine of raw material you can build content on to attract a wider audience that doesn't know your brand… yet. This isn't just data; it's a direct trigger for your next move.3. From Keyword to "Keynote": Creating Content with ContextOnce you've discovered this raw material, the next step is Development. This is where you transform an unstructured keyword into a strategic asset by adding structure and meaning. It's a progression: a raw keyword becomes a more defined keyphrase, which can be built into a keystone concept, and ultimately refined into a keynote.What's a keynote? Think about its real-world meaning: "when somebody sends you a note, it has context, right? It's supposed to mean something and it's supposed to say something specific." A keynote isn't just a search term; it's that term fully developed into a structured piece of content that delivers a specific, meaningful answer.This strategic asset can take many forms:• Blogs• Podcast episodes• Articles• Newsletters• Videos/Reels• eBooks4. The Most Underrated SEO Tactic: Your New Secret WeaponYou've discovered the query and developed it into a keynote. Now it's time for Execution. The single most effective format for executing on this strategy is one of the most powerful, yet underrated, SEO tactics in history: creating content around Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) has fundamentally changed search behavior. People are asking full, conversational questions, and search engines are prioritizing direct, authoritative answers. A "one blog per FAQ" strategy is the perfect response. It's a secret weapon that's almost shockingly effective.FAQ is the new awesome the most awesome ever. I I said that on purpose.How awesome? By creating a single, targeted blog post for the long-tail question, "full roof replacement cost [city]," one site ranked number one on Google for that exact phrase in just 30 minutes. That's the power of directly answering a question your audience is already asking.5. It's Not About New Features, It's About New ActionsThe real purpose of these GSC updates isn't to give you more charts to observe; it's to prompt decisive action. Every non-branded query is a signal for what content to create next, feeding a powerful strategic loop that builds your authority over time.This is where it all comes together in a professional content framework. As the source material notes, "That's why you have content pillars and you have content clusters." Your non-branded queries show you what clusters your audience needs, and your FAQ-style "keynotes" become the assets that build out those clusters around your core content pillars.This data-driven approach empowers you to:• Recreate outdated content with new, relevant insights.• Repurpose core ideas into different formats to reach wider audiences.• Re-evaluate which topics are truly resonating.• Reemphasize your most valuable messages with fresh content.Conclusion: What Does Your Dashboard Say?Google Search Console is no longer just a reporting tool. It has evolved into an essential strategic partner that closes the gap between the content you produce and the value your audience is searching for. It's your direct line to understanding intent, allowing you to move from guessing what people want to knowing what they need.Now that you know how to read your website's dashboard, what's the first turn you're going to make?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the MSP Business School podcast, host Brian Doyle welcomes Jesse Miller from PowerPSA Consulting to discuss the importance and structuring of vCISO programs in MSPs. Jesse shares his journey from a CISO of an MSP to founding PowerPSA Consulting, emphasizing the need for MSPs to offer vCISO services to enhance client value and expand recurring revenue. This engaging discussion explores the primary hurdles MSPs face in implementing and monetizing these services, delivering actionable insights and practical advice for listeners. Jesse Miller elaborates on how MSPs can become proactive by incorporating vCISO programs into their offerings. He highlights the significance of market research to tailor these programs to client needs and explains the importance of detailed client interviews for developing unique value propositions. The conversation dives deep into key issues like effectively packaging and pricing vCISO services, the role of cyber insurance in driving the demand for these services, and leveraging vCISO offerings as a strategy to outpace competitors. Jesse's experiences and advice provide a roadmap for MSPs aiming to build successful vCISO programs. Key Takeaways: Monetizing VCISO Programs: It's crucial for MSPs to effectively package and promote vCISO services, positioning them as essential rather than optional to clients. Market Research and Target Clients: Conducting detailed interviews with existing clients helps in creating a tailor-made vCISO program that aligns with client needs and expectations. Cyber Insurance as a Catalyst: Rising demands from cyber insurance work as a significant factor pushing the necessity for robust vCISO programs. Opportunity for Growth: vCISO services can be an entry point into new markets and clients, offering a competitive edge over other MSPs. Elevating Strategic Partnerships: Providing vCISO services allows MSPs to transition from being viewed as commodities to strategic partners with their clients.

Visit our website ➡️➡️➡️ https://www.majesticproduction.com/Folks, this episode is BIG. It's YUGE. Maybe one of the best we've done—possibly the best. We're diving deep—deeper than ever before—into something you've probably never heard of, unless you're a genius historian like me: Titanes del Ring, the legendary Chilean wrestling show that was absolutely massive in the '70s, then disappeared like the ratings during a Seth Rollins promo. We break it down like nobody else could. Believe me!Now, let me tell you, this show? It's a total gem. Full of masked characters, drama, theater—it's like if WWE and Broadway had a beautiful South American baby during a military coup. They had characters like La Momia, El Dragón Chino, and Black Diablo—the kind of names you remember. People were buying books of tickets just to get in. That's how HOT this was. And the fact that most of the tapes were destroyed? Makes it even more legendary. It's like wrestling's version of the lost city of gold!But we're not just stopping there, folks. No, no. We get into this week's Wrestling Drama, which has been completely insane. Dave Meltzer—Fake News Dave—is claiming WWE tried to hire him after RAW's ratings dipped? Total lie. Complete fabrication. Sad! And once again, AEW fans are doing horrendous things online. Really terrible people. What kind of person brags about Tony Khan liking their tweet like it's a job interview?Also on the show: Nixon Newell and Miranda Alize walked out of AEW Collision? What's going on over there? Total chaos. LA Knight gets a mystery opponent in the John Cena “My Last Time is Now” tournament—big moves happening! And let's not forget: the AEW vs. NWA National Title debate is heating up and we bring real facts, not feelings. AEW fans should try those sometime.Oh, and we watched a classic match from Titanes del Ring—Tarzán vs El Charro Mexicano. It was wild, weird, and weirdly charming. Kinda like me.So tune in. Because we're not just making wrestling great again—we're making it MAJESTIC again. And you won't get this kind of deep dive, truth-telling, and beautiful nostalgia anywhere else.Believe me.

Australian mining company Santana is a crucial step closer to opening its controversial proposed gold mine near Cromwell.

Brad Rourke, CEO, and Thomas Mumford, President of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT – OTCQB:SCTSF), both join us to review the key aspects of the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) released to the market on October 28th. Additionally, we get an update on the bulk sample progress, the main objectives focused on in the 2025 drill program, and the feasibility-level ore sorting study underway at the Scottie Gold Mine Project; located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. The PEA outlines a robust Direct-Ship Ore ("DSO") development scenario for the Scottie Gold Mine Project, with strong economics and leverage to the current gold price environment, and additional upside potential through toll milling. The base case DSO project delivers an after-tax NPV(5%) ranging from CAD$215.8 million to CAD$668.3 million at gold prices of US$2,600/oz and US$4,200/oz, respectively. Importantly, the PEA also presents the opportunity to utilize excess capacity at the nearby Premier mill through a toll-milling arrangement, which could significantly enhance project economics. Under this scenario, the after-tax NPV(5%) increases to CAD$380.1 million at US$2,600/oz and CAD$831.7 million at US$4,200/oz (note: no toll-milling agreement is currently in place). The PEA contemplates an initial capital cost of CAD$128.6 million and average annual production of approximately 65,400 ounces of gold over a seven-year mine life. The project demonstrates a compelling after-tax payback period of 1.7 years for the standalone DSO case, and just 0.9 years under the toll-milling opportunity at a gold price of US$2,600/oz. The DSO project is planned to commence with open pit mining at the Blueberry Contact Zone, closely followed by underground mining at the Blueberry Contact Zone, and subsequently the Scottie Gold Mine. The mined material will be then jaw crushed and sorted using an XRF based ore sorting system. The upgraded product will be transported to the Stewart bulk shipping facility located 40 km down an existing road to be shipped overseas. The material would be then sold to Ocean Partners based on the negotiated terms in the existing offtake agreement The company then plans to move straight into work streams for a Feasibility Study (FS) with actual cost estimates and more detailed economics as the next major economic study to be undertaken 8-10 months after all the 2025 drill results from the 27,309 meter program are in hand. We got into the resource assumptions used in the PEA, but both Brad and Thomas outlined how these resources are going to expand now that 4 diamond drill rigs were turning this year in the largest exploration program to date, across different parts of the high-priority Blueberry Contact Zone, and around the past-producing Scottie Gold Mine. A key initiative was infilling areas with tighter spacing, focused on upgrading the resources from inferred to indicated categories at the Blueberry Contact Zone. However many of the holes will also go deeper doing some true exploration work with a focus on expanding the potential open pit and upper portions of the underground resources at both Blueberry and Scottie areas. Next we touched on the ongoing 10,000-tonne surface bulk sampling program where they have completed the blasting and mucking of mineralized material from the road-accessible outcropping Bend Vein located on the north end of the Scottie Gold Mine Project. The crushing and transportation of this material has also been completed moving many truckloads of material down the Granduc road to the Stewart bulk shipping facility without any concerns or challenges. Brad and Thomas outline that this bulk sample will be a nice opportunity to learn more about a number of metrics and provide a nice proof of concept, as well as generating some non-dilutive capital for the Company in the process. Wrapping up we discussed the ongoing Phase 2 ore-sorting study underway, that will be a more advanced Feasibility Study level test of upgrading the ore, with the strategy to reduce the amount of waste rock before shipping. Ore sorting could significantly enhance the efficiencies of the overall DSO strategy, and those results are due out in Q4 as another key company catalyst by year end.

Guy Adami and Danny Moses discuss a variety of topics impacting the stock market and economy. They start by drawing parallels between the current market situation and past events, such as the late '90s dot-com bubble and the 2008 financial crisis. They highlight the rise of AI and its resemblance to the internet boom, expressing concerns over vendor financing and unsustainable company valuations. The conversation shifts to the potential impact of a weakening U.S. dollar and the significant role of gold, as central banks accumulate it to hedge against economic instability. They also touch on the fragility of the Japanese yen and its economic implications. Passive investing's influence on market behavior is examined, and the potential for sectors like healthcare and energy to offer value is discussed. The episode concludes with an analysis of current trends in sports gambling markets and NFL game predictions. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media
