From Google to Everywhere: How to Win in the New AI-Driven Search Era feat. Micheal Buckbee

The Best SEO Podcast: Unlocking the Unknown Secrets of AI, Search Rankings & Digital Marketing

AI is fracturing the search ecosystem and creating new opportunities for SEOs to expand their role and demonstrate greater business value in this evolving digital landscape.
• Michael Buckbee discusses how AI is changing search and creating "siteless SEO"
• Traditional SEO has primarily been Google optimization, but search is now becoming a feature embedded across multiple platforms
• ChatGPT and other AI tools are often the first touchpoint for prospects, who may never visit your website
• AI search operates on different rules than traditional SEO—domain authority matters less while content repetition becomes paramount
• The BISCUIT framework helps marketers adapt: check technical foundations, conduct business intelligence, and shift content strategy
• Post-purchase attribution surveys often reveal that AI search plays a larger role in customer acquisition than analytics suggest
• Distributing the same content across multiple platforms strengthens your position in AI search results
• Companies should track how their brand appears in AI responses and optimize accordingly
• Content strategy should include both "faceless" (informational) and "face" (perspective-driven) content
• Agentic search is emerging, where AI assistants conduct research on behalf of users and present summaries.
