    Increase Your AI Aggregate Visibility With These 6 Tactics (EP128)

    I keep hearing new buzzwords, and I roll my eyes at every one. So when “aggregate visibility” showed up in a recent search visibility audit, I was ready to roll them again. Here’s the short answer what what this is. Aggregate visibility is digital street cred. It’s who is linking to you and mentioning your business around the web. AI search engines look at that to decide who to show. The business I audited was coming up some, but their competitors had a lot more love from trusted sites like Business Insider, PR Newswire and TripAdvisor. In this episode, I talk about what you can do about it when you’re the whole marketing department, or you have a team of one or two. I’ll warn you, it’s boring work. It’s worth doing, though, and I share an easy way to stick with it so it doesn’t take over your week.

    Someone Lands On Your Website. Now What? (EP125)

    The first thing someone notices when they land on your website is the visual. Not like oh this is cool or pretty, but does it convey to them this is the place that's gonna give them what they want. Trustworthy. If people aren't put off by the visual, they read the words on the page. If they aren't put off by the words, if the words resonate with the visitor, then they stick around and read the blog post or service page. People will stick around your website if you give them a reason to. So let's talk about that. Enjoy the episode! 📞 Schedule a Clarity Call 👉 For all the links and resources mentioned in this episode, check out the supporting blog post here. 🧰 I love me a good digital marketing tool.This week’s recommended tool is Better Links. Super handy for short URLs (aka vanity URLs). Instead of showing someone a super long URL, you can set it up so it's shorter and if you're a organized gal like me, put them in categories so you can track the URLs. I have categories for tools, podcasts, operations, affiliate links I share with other people.  And it will show you how many times the URL is viewed and clicked so you can understand if the link is popular.

You check 5,000 tools, of which only 1 is free, the rest are based on an uncomprehendable pay-by-credit model, combine all the outputs into one spreadsheet and then order... {screeching halt sound} Oh no no no.
