On this week's Little Talks we talk search. What it is, where it's going and how your brand can stay relevant in the age of AI SEO. AI is definitely changing the SEO playbook, but fortunately some of the same old tricks that have worked in traditional SEO still work for AI search as well.
We chat strategy, measurement and everything in between as AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini and Preplexity start to slowly chip away at Google Search, who is easily still the king with 90% of global search traffic—for now). And as has been the case for a couple of decades now, brands can't ignore AI SEO and the visibility it brings without losing the "top-of-funnel" as well. Early movers who are prepared are gaining authority faster and shaping how their industries are represented in conversational results. Big time stuff.
All this plus some seasonly relevant fantasy football talk and a special shoutout to our friend Siva for inspiring this episode!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
