    Ep 4.1.: How Generative Engine Optimisation Will Shape Digital Marketing

    We’re back after a six-month hiatus! Life got busy, but we’re diving back into digital marketing with a fresh new season. Today’s episode is all about Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) and how it’s set to transform online search and digital marketing strategies. What Is Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO)? GEO is a strategy designed to optimise content for AI-based search engines like Google’s AI Overview/Gemini, ChatGPT, Bing AI, Perplexity, and Claude. Unlike traditional search, which returns a list of links, GEO ensures that content appears in AI-generated summaries and direct answers. How Does GEO Differ from SEO? SEO focuses on ranking web pages on traditional search engine results pages (SERPs) using keywords, backlinks, and technical SEO.GEO optimises content for AI-driven searches by emphasising context, semantic relevance, and structured data.Both prioritise high-quality content, user satisfaction, and structured data, but GEO requires more conversational, intent-based optimisation. Why GEO Matters AI-driven search engines provide direct answers to complex or multi-faceted queries.Users interact with AI tools in natural language, expecting precise and comprehensive responses.GEO-optimised content ensures your site is referenced in AI-generated responses, increasing visibility and authority. How to Optimise for GEO Create High-Quality Content – Demonstrate expertise, experience, authority, and trustworthiness (E-E-A-T).Use Long-Tail & Conversational Queries – Write in natural language and include FAQ sections.Optimise for Entities – Provide contextual clues through related words and topics.Leverage Structured Data – Use schema markup and clear formatting to make AI understanding easier.Improve Content Layout – Keep paragraphs short, use appropriate headers, and avoid excessive jargon.Increase Off-Page Presence – Build backlinks and ensure your content appears across platforms.Diversify Content Formats – Include videos, quizzes, and infographics with proper metadata.Stay Updated & Experiment – GEO is evolving, so keep up with trends and refine strategies based on results. Is SEO Dead? Absolutely not! SEO and GEO complement each other, and traditional search engines still dominate. However, adapting to GEO ensures that your brand remains visible in AI-driven search environments. What’s Next? We’ll be diving deeper into GEO in upcoming episodes.

    Ep 3.7: Core Web Vitals for Beginners

    Today, Genny aims to help listeners wrap their heads around core web vitals,  which are key metrics used by Google to assess user experience on websites.  She breaks down the three core metrics: page speed (measured by Largest Contentful Paint or LCP), interactivity (measured by Interaction to Next Paint or INP), and visual stability (measured by Cumulative Layout Shift or CLS). Using layman's terms, Genny details what each metric measures and how it affects user experience and SEO rankings. She also offers a few insights on how to improve each metric, such as optimising images and videos, minimising redirects, and ensuring page responsiveness. The episode emphasises the importance of user experience in website design and SEO, highlighting that Google is increasingly prioritising user-centric metrics.  Collaboration between marketers and web developers to optimise core web vitals is essential, and will ultimately enhance overall user experience.

    Ep 3.5: ChatGPT One Year Later: A Look Back at AI-Generated Content

    It's been a little over a year since ChatGPT became public and exploded onto the scene. So many of us were overwhelmed, awestruck, excited, and even a little bit anxious about its seemingly limitless capacity. It obviously did not take us long to envision a world that almost every 19th century science fiction writer warned us about; a world in which the creation becomes more powerful than the creator (how many times has Mary Wollstonecraft rolled over in her grave in the last 15 months?). But that was a year ago,  and we've all had time to digest and get used to ChatGPT (et al) as our helpful marketing sidekick. No, it still hasn't taken over the world, and no, it hasn't wiped out an entire workforce, and yes, it's still a work in progress. But, it has definitely changed the way we create content, so to help Genny unpack the last year and discuss how writers and companies have adapted is Jon, a freelance SaaS copywriter from Electric Copy.

    Ep 3.4: To Optimise or Not to Optimise: Which Pages Need to Rank?

    Let's start off the new year with a simple question: do all pages need to be optimised? And really, what is the difference between an optimised and an unoptimised page? We can't believe we've gone through three seasons of SEO Unfiltered without having addressed these very simple questions. Well, today we are going to answer them once and for all. Whether you're new to digital marketing or have been plugging away at your own SEO for a while now, this may be a bit confusing, so listen to this brief episode where Genny will explain the difference between a brochure page (which doesn't necessarily have a keyword focus) and a landing page (which most certainly should have a keyword focus). Spoiler Alert 🚨 Not all pages need to be optimised, but all pages should be created to a high standard.

    Ep 3.2: 9 Things We Wish Marketers Knew About SEO Tools

    Are you a marketer who relies heavily on SEO tools to understand what’s going on? Or are you convinced you know everything you need to know about SEO because you’ve been using SEMRush for years and ain’t nobody gonna tell you you don’t know what you’re talking about. Maybe you should listen to this episode. Over the years, the geeks have encountered many marketing managers with various levels of experience, and we’ve come across the same assumptions, misconceptions, and bad habits over and over again. Now don’t get us wrong, we use tools all the time, so this definitely isn’t an episode bashing the use of these tools. But there are some things we really, really wish people understood about these tools, such as: Google doesn’t give third-party tools access to their data.Tools tend to focus on one thing and run with it, whereas Google’s ranking factors cover a whole spectrum.Over-reliance on tools can give you analysis paralysis.You might be drawing the wrong conclusions from your data.A little bit of knowledge can be dangerous.Common sense trumps tools.Tools aren’t going to automatically make you rank number 1 Tools do not make great babysittersTools can’t patch up poor-quality pagesAll that to say, knowledge is power and always being open to learning new things is the type of mindset that keeps you ahead of the competition.
