Ross Simmonds breaks down how AI overviews and LLMs are changing search—and what small businesses can do to keep winning. We dig into why brand and owned channels matter more than ever, how to diversify beyond Google, which third-party domains LLMs love to cite, and a simple focus formula for content distribution. Key TakeawaysThe SERP is shifting to answers and transactions; fewer clicks to your site means brand + owned channels are mission-critical. Now is the time to publish unique, story-driven content that LLMs can cite later. Create assets your “future you” will be grateful for. Diversify discovery: show up where buyers research (TikTok, Pinterest, Instagram, Etsy), not just on Google. Search behavior has shifted—people use Instagram/YouTube/TikTok for ideas and how-tos; optimize for those journeys. To influence LLM answers, seed multiple authoritative domains (LinkedIn, Reddit, Medium, Quora) with your message. “Be excellent on one channel” first; syndicate elsewhere even if it's not perfect—then expand. Optimize your life too: sleep and calendars drive better marketing than nonstop grind. Listener Action ItemsPick your “home” channel and get excellent at it for 90 days; syndicate the same posts to 2 other platforms with light edits. Publish 3–5 unique, story-rich assets this month that your future self wants LLMs to cite. Seed third-party domains (LinkedIn article, Reddit thread, Medium post, Quora answer) with your core message to boost LLM citation odds. Audit discovery: can buyers find you on Pinterest/Instagram/TikTok/Etsy for your “money” searches? If not, claim and optimize profiles. Protect your energy: schedule sleep, workouts, and weekly calendar reviews before adding new marketing experiments.

Let's chat about the Pinterest Marketing Plan Framework. You have heard all of the big marketing terms before (ideal customer, SEO, quality content, even CTA) - what you may not know is how to apply them to Pinterest. The first thing we need to note is that Pinterest is a visual search engine, similar to the LTKW-based search engine of Google and the audio-based version of YouTube. Pinterest is not a social media platform, and that is good news for you! It means that your content can be seen for years to come (evergreen), when done right, versus the short, hours-long life span of a social media post. Let's get into how to use Pinterest to market our brand, gain awareness for our content, and ultimately increase sales. Pinterest helps you tell a visual story about your brand It's a visual search engine and arguably the favorite of teachers, creative marketers, educational sellers, artists, and creatives Pins are evergreen- which means they keep circulating day after day, year after year Links Mentioned in this Episode about Pinterest Marketing: Start or Expand Your Teacher Business in 2025 CEO Teacher Pinterest CEO Teacher® Resources Worth Their Weight in Gold You're already a wealth of knowledge!

In my recent episode of the Blogger Genius Podcast, I'm interviewing Megan Porter, host of the Eat Blog Talk podcast, about the world of food blogging now. Megan shares her thoughts on the current trends and challenges in the food blogging space including how food bloggers are finding success right now in diversifying their traffic and selling their knowledge as digital products. Key Trends in Food Blogging Diversifying Traffic Sources One of the most significant trends Megan highlights is the shift away from relying solely on Google for traffic. With recent algorithm changes causing fluctuations in traffic, many bloggers are turning to alternative sources like Pinterest. Leverage Pinterest as a Search Engine: Treat Pinterest not just as a social media platform but as a search engine. Conduct keyword research to optimize your pins and ensure they are discoverable. Create Multiple Pins for Each Post: Develop various pins for each blog post, targeting different use cases and scenarios. For example, a chili recipe could be marketed for family dinners, camping trips, or potlucks. Consistency is Key: Plan to invest at least six months to a year into your Pinterest strategy before expecting significant results. Create around five unique pins for each new blog post and update older content regularly. Updating Older Content Another trend Megan discusses is the practice of updating older blog posts. This strategy helps maintain or boost traffic by improving the relevance and searchability of your existing content. Audit Your Content: Regularly review your blog archives to identify posts that could benefit from updates. Focus on improving the quality, adding new information, and optimizing for current SEO best practices. Repurpose Content: Consider repurposing older content into new formats, such as videos, infographics, or social media posts, to reach a broader audience. The Impact of Google Changes Building Authority and Expertise Google's algorithm changes have made it more challenging for newer bloggers to gain traction. Megan emphasizes the importance of building authority and expertise over time. Consistency and Persistence: Stay committed to producing high-quality content consistently. It may take time, but persistence is key to building credibility. Develop a Unique Point of View: Differentiate yourself by sharing your opinions and personal experiences. Authenticity can attract a loyal audience who resonates with your perspective. Focus on Domain Authority: Work on building your domain authority by earning backlinks from reputable sites, guest posting, and collaborating with other bloggers. Monetization Strategies Exploring Digital Products Megan and I discuss digital products as a potent revenue stream for food bloggers. With a solid email list, bloggers can effectively market ebooks, online challenges, and other digital offerings. Understand Your Audience: Conduct surveys or engage with your audience to understand their needs and preferences. Tailor your digital products to meet these demands. Start Small: Even with a smaller email list (around 1,000 to 2,000 subscribers), you can find significant potential for income. Focus on delivering value and building trust with your audience. Evaluate and Double Down: Regularly assess your monetization efforts to identify what is generating income. Double down on successful strategies and refine those that are underperforming. Affiliate Marketing Despite the challenges posed by Google's algorithm changes, affiliate marketing remains a viable income source for many bloggers. Create High-Quality Content: Focus on producing content that genuinely serves your audience. High-quality, informative posts are more likely to attract and retain readers. Diversify Affiliate Programs: Don't rely on a single affiliate program. Explore various programs and products that align with your niche and audience interests. Transparency and Trust: Be transparent about your affiliate relationships and prioritize building trust with your audience. Authentic recommendations are more likely to convert. Leveraging AI in Blogging Embracing AI as a Tool Initially, there was concern about AI's impact on blogging. However, many bloggers are now embracing AI as a valuable tool for brainstorming and content creation. Use AI for Idea Generation: Utilize AI tools to brainstorm content ideas and generate prompts. This can help overcome writer's block and provide fresh perspectives. Collaborative Writing: Treat AI as a supportive companion in your writing process. Use it to refine your writing and explore new angles. Stay Updated: Keep abreast of the latest AI tools and technologies that can enhance your blogging efforts. Experiment with different tools to find what works best for you. Community and Support Building a Supportive Community Megan highlights the importance of community among bloggers. She runs various groups and memberships designed to provide support and connection for food bloggers. Join Blogging Communities: Participate in online groups, forums, and memberships where you can share challenges, seek advice, and celebrate successes with fellow bloggers. Network and Collaborate: Build relationships with other bloggers in your niche. Collaborate on projects, guest post on each other's blogs, and share each other's content. Mentorship and Learning: Seek out mentors and learning opportunities within the community. Continuous learning and support can help you navigate the ups and downs of blogging. Overcoming Burnout and Staying Focused Managing Burnout Burnout is a common struggle among bloggers, especially those who are creative and often drawn to new ideas and projects. Regularly Assess Priorities: Ensure that your efforts are directed toward activities that will yield the best results. Focus on what aligns with your goals. Set Achievable Goals: Break down your long-term vision into smaller, manageable goals. This can help you stay motivated and track your progress. Stay Connected to Your “Why”: Understand the reasons behind your blogging journey. Staying connected to your purpose can help you push through challenges and remain focused.
