Send us a textIn this thought-provoking episode of the Near Memo podcast, SEO veteran Cindy Krum joins Greg Sterling and Mike Blumenthal to unpack how Google's evolving use of AI, including MUM (Multitask Unified Model), is reshaping the search landscape. Krum explains how Google is moving from keyword- and entity-based indexing to modeling “journeys” that reflect a user's intent — aligning with Google's long-abandoned concept of “micro-moments” like “I want to know,” “I want to go,” “I want to do,” and “I want to buy.” These journeys are increasingly being monetized across different verticals such as YouTube, Merchant Center, and local results, as Google balances expensive AI integration with ad revenue optimization.The trio also explores the convergence of Google Discover, AI Overviews, and personalized browsing experiences — warning that this personalization could result in unprecedented data tracking and loss of consumer privacy. Krum emphasizes that marketers and SEOs must adapt quickly: diversify traffic sources, optimize across social and non-Google platforms, and consider how Google's motivations (data consolidation and monetization) are shaping an experience that prioritizes corporate interests over user needs. The message is clear — traditional SEO tactics won't survive the AI-driven tide unless they evolve dramatically.TakeawaysCindy Krum discusses the MUM model and its impact on SEO.Google's monetization strategies are evolving with AI integration.Personalization in search is becoming increasingly important.Marketers need to optimize for user intent and MUM journeys.Informational queries represent a significant portion of search traffic.Diversifying traffic sources is crucial for digital marketers.Branding and social media presence are essential for visibility.The search landscape is changing rapidly due to AI advancements.Marketers should be proactive in adapting to these changes.Understanding user journeys will be key to future SEO strategies.Subscribe to our newsletters and other content at https://www.nearmedia.co/subscribe/

In Jurassic Park, scientists bio-engineered dinosaurs by splicing preserved dino DNA with modern-day frog DNA. It sounded like science fiction…until now. A real-life biotech company with visions of “de-extinction” recently spliced gray wolf DNA with that of the dire wolf, a mammal that's been extinct for thousands of years. And they have plans to do the same thing with other extinct species. This week we're going off the radar with Dr. Jay Odenbaugh, a professor and researcher who specializes in the ethics of de-extinction. We'll discuss what this company did, and what the implications might mean.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Her research interests include information systems, finance management, organization science, and the economics of blockchain. She focuses particularly on decentralized platforms and open-source software. Summary: In this episode of Talking About Platforms, Maria discusses the platform business model as one that creates infrastructural opportunities for other agents, companies, individuals, and users to create new value. The platform operator provides the infrastructure and foundational tools for other economic agents to create derivative value and the economy around the platform. Key discussion points include: • Decentralized platforms and blockchain: Maria shares her journey into researching blockchain technology around 2017, initially learning about it from the Bitcoin perspective and then finding a community on campus discussing this technology. She notes the ethos behind it as a movement against centralization, particularly in financial transactional systems, aligning with open-source software concepts. • Research gaps and the evolution of blockchain applications: Early research focused on understanding what blockchain is and what changes it brings to existing business models. The evolution of applications, from Bitcoin to various cryptocurrencies, has been crucial in understanding blockchain's impact. • Traditional firms and blockchain: Some companies use blockchain technology to make processes more efficient, such as stablecoin companies utilizing blockchain for cheaper and more efficient payment rails. Others, like Starbucks and Nike, experiment with Web3 artifacts for community engagement and loyalty enhancement. • Open-source community and value capture: Maria discusses capturing the value of open source in the cryptocurrency space, given that a majority of cryptocurrencies have open-source code on GitHub. • Centralization in decentralized sectors: The discussion touches on the tendency toward centralization in the blockchain space, with larger entities dominating through grant programs. • Tokenization and incentivization: Blockchain introduces the concept of token organizations, digitizing transactions and exchanges, and using tokens as a payment for contributions, potentially shifting the balance between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. • Algorithmic governance and immutability: The immutability of code in blockchain systems can be a dilemma when the system scales and new market mechanisms require changes. Flexibility is needed, and sometimes centralized entities are required to make decisions. Publications & Projects Mentioned: • von Hippel, E. (2002).

TFJ invited eloquent and dynamic Alex Traiman, CEO of Jewish News Syndicate, to explain the current situation in the Middle East. Alex Traiman is a go to for accurate news analysis and uncensored perspective on what lay behind current events. In this eye-opening interview (recorded On November 25, 2024) Mr. Traiman provides a fascinating understanding of Prime Minister Netanyahu who is constantly reviled by the Left and the Media without ever acknowledging the man's incredible fortitude and leadership. The JNS Jerusalem Bureau Chief also lucidly explained how recent events have shattered myths and conceptions such as, “The devil we know is better than the devil we do not know,” “Good fences make good neighbors,” “Our enemies care more about their economic well-being than they do about killing Jews.” With trenchant examples, Traiman explains how each one of these concepts was faulty and has proven to be a notion that misled policy with tragic consequences. There was also the military misconception that believed that troops on the ground were not necessary if there was the proper monitoring and surveillance in place. In his hallmark way of looking at the positive, Traiman recognizes the current war as an opportunity to repair the false concepts which will enable Israel to emerge stronger and smarter.

Send us a textExtended GBP Business Names - Spam or Legitimate Descriptors?We explore Google's growing tolerance for extended taglines & descriptors in business names via the Google Business Center and its impact on local SEO strategies. Examples include businesses embedding descriptors like “best plastic surgeon” or “sexual harassment lawyer” into their names that were escalated to Google but were deemed acceptable. These additions act as taglines and significantly boost search visibility by leveraging Google's algorithm, which treats business names as ranking signals. This shift marks a departure from earlier strict rules, offering businesses a competitive edge when such names are left unchallenged.Google's willingness to accept these extended descriptors, even after they are flagged, suggests a prioritization of scalability over strict enforcement. While businesses may benefit from increased visibility, they must balance this tactic with potential risks, such as temporary suspension or muddling brand identity. The conversation calls for structured testing to understand the limits of Google's tolerance and how businesses can effectively navigate these relaxed guidelines without overstepping.Rand Fishkin Research: Branded Queries Dominate Google: Insights from 300 Million SearchesRand Fishin's analysis of over 300 million Google queries reveals surprising insights into search behavior. A striking 15% of all queries consist of just 150 terms, primarily branded or navigational, underscoring the dominance of well-known names in search behavior. Informational queries represent 53% of the total, while commercial and transactional searches trail significantly, with less than 1% being purely transactional. This data suggests a need for businesses to emphasize brand building to thrive in Google's search ecosystem.The findings underscore the challenge of zero-click searches, where Google resolves queries directly, leaving businesses without traffic. The recommendation? Shift focus from SEO competition to brand building via alternative channels to drive direct searches. Ads, for example, can complement this strategy by enhancing brand awareness, leading to stronger organic performance and bypassing Google's increasingly saturated search landscape.AI vs. Google: The Rise of ChatGPT as a Search AlternativeWe discuss AI's potential as an alternative to search engines, with tools like ChatGPT emerging as viable competitors. A survey reveals that while 77% of frequent search users find Google easier to use than three years ago, AI tools are gaining traction, with ChatGPT ranked second in perceived usefulness. This shift reflects growing consumer trust in AI for specific tasks, such as shopping comparisons, where platforms like Perplexity accelerate decision-making.Despite Google's dominance, dissatisfaction with its cluttered and spam-prone results is evident. Businesses face a dual challenge: leveraging Google for recovery searches while addressing consumers' complex decision-making needs. AI's rise presents an opportunity for businesses to adapt, using diverse platforms to maintain relevance amid evolving consumer habits.The Near Memo is a weekly conversation about Search, Social, and Commerce: What happened, why it matters, and the implications for local businesses and national brands.Ep 185Subscribe to our 3x per week newsletter at https://www.nearmedia.co/subscribe/
