The New SEO Playbook: Winning in a World of AI Overviews and Vanishing Clicks feat. Ray Grieselhuber

The Best SEO Podcast: Defining the Future of Search with LLM Visibility™

Search is rapidly changing as traffic is being redistributed across platforms, with AI overviews and LLMs dramatically changing how users find information and interact with brands.
• Despite traffic metrics declining, brand visibility may actually be increasing in places you can't easily measure
• Media Mix Modeling (MMM) is emerging as a better way to evaluate marketing impact versus traditional attribution models
• Website traffic is down approximately 58.5% due to zero-click searches and AI interfaces
• Successful businesses need to focus on their topical authority rather than trying to rank for everything
• Content pruning has become essential as excess pages create friction that slows down site performance
• LLMs are increasingly integrated with search engines, creating a merged experience for users
• SERP analytics has replaced simple rank tracking as the way to measure competitive positioning
