    MW 214: How to Get AI To Recommend You: SEO Content & Technical

    Being cited by AI comes down to three things: what's said about your brand elsewhere (offsite), what's actually on your website (onsite content), and whether AI can find, read and trust it (technical). In Part 1, we covered offsite: how Digital PR builds the authority signals AI platforms look for. In Part 2, we're turning to the other two pillars: getting your own site into shape to earn those citations in the first place.Strong offsite authority only gets you so far if your content isn't structured for AI to understand, and your technical foundations aren't solid enough for AI to trust what it finds. This session covers both.We'll show how to structure onsite content so AI platforms can extract clear, citable answers from it, and which technical signals determine whether your site is even considered credible enough to cite.What you'll be able to do after the session:Structure content AI platforms can useLearn how information density, clear answer blocks and content structure affect whether AI can extract and cite what you've written.Identify the technical signals AI checks before it trusts youUnderstand which technical factors act as the "entry fee" for AI visibility, and how to check where your site currently stands.See how all three pillars work togetherUnderstand how onsite content and technical health combine with the offsite authority from Part 1 to build a brand AI consistently recommends.All attendees can request a FREE MX AI Visibility Audit, powered by Mediaworks' proprietary MX measurement framework.The audit assesses your site's Technical and Authority pillars, reviewing content structure, technical health and how well-prepared your site is to be found, understood and cited by AI platforms.You'll receive a clear view of your current performance, the gaps limiting your visibility and the priority actions that can help your brand earn more citations across AI-generated answers.

    MW 213: The Website of the Future: How AI Is Changing Web Design and Development

    The Website of the Future: How AI Is Changing Web Design and DevelopmentYou’ve been invited to:The Website of the Future: How AI Is Changing Web Design and DevelopmentYou've been invited to:The Website of the Future: How AI Is Changing Web Design and Development What if the real shift in web design and development isn't a feature on your website, but a change in how sites get designed, built, experienced and even whether they're needed at all? AI is already reshaping the design process, changing how developers build sites, and altering how users experience them once they arrive, adapting content, layout and interaction in real time rather than presenting the same static page to everyone. At the same time, AI agents completing more tasks on a user's behalf raise a genuine question about whether the traditional website remains the front door it used to be. In this session, we'll look at what's actually changing across three fronts: AI-enhanced design tools speeding up how sites get built, including AI design capabilities and what they unlock today; the growing use and real limitations of 'vibe coding' to generate sites from a prompt; and how AI is starting to reshape the user experience itself, from adaptive, personalised journeys to what a "good" experience even means when no two visitors see quite the same site. You'll come away with a clear, evidence-based view of what's genuinely changing and what still needs experienced hands. What you'll be able to do after the session: Understand what AI is actually changing in web design and developmentLearn where AI-enhanced design tools and capabilities are already speeding up the build process, and where human judgement is still required. Evaluate AI-generated development claimsUnderstand the real capabilities and limitations of vibe coding, so you can separate genuine capability from hype before you brief your next project. See how AI is changing the user experienceUnderstand how adaptive and personalised experiences are changing what "good UX" means, and what that shift asks of your website strategy. Prepare for a changing relationship between users and websitesConsider what it means for your site as AI agents increasingly complete tasks on a user's behalf, and how to future-proof your next build against where things are heading. FREE MX Website Performance AuditUsing the Technical & Engagement pillars of our MX framework, we’ll review how your website is structured for discoverability, performance, and future AI-readiness, alongside practical recommendations for improvement. You'll receive a clear view of your current performance, the gaps affecting your readiness, and the priority actions that can help your site keep pace with how design, development and experience are changing. We look forward to having you attend the event.Fri, 28 Aug 2026 11:00 - 11:30 (UTC+00:00) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, LondonWe look forward to having you attend the event!

    MW 210: Why 85% of Marketing Campaigns Fail.

    Mediaworks Masterclass: Why 85% of Marketing Campaigns FailMarketing teams are under more pressure than ever to produce content that converts, but more activity does not automatically create more demand. Too often a campaign becomes a list of outputs (a blog here, a paid ad there, an email send) before anyone has defined the audience problem, the message or the action they want people to take. When you plan a campaign channel-first, every asset ends up working in isolation. Paid, organic, email, SEO, landing pages and sales follow-up all pull in different directions, and the result is busy work that looks productive but never builds momentum. In this session, we will show how the strongest campaigns connect one audience, one problem, one core message, one offer and one measurable outcome. You'll leave with a practical framework for planning audience, message, content, channel mix and measurement, so every asset has a clear job to do. What you'll take away from our session How to turn scattered activity into joined up campaigns that build demand. How do you give every asset a job that moves your audience closer to action? How do you turn one idea into connected activity across paid, organic, CRM, SEO and sales enablement? All attendees can request a FREE MMeX Audit, powered by Mediaworks' proprietary measurement framework. The audit shows whether your current campaign activity is building market visibility, search demand and competitive strength, or just creating disconnected channel performance. It benchmarks your activity across seven areas: Visibility, Traffic, Paid Traffic, Engagement, Search Demand, Content Performance and Competitor Positioning. You'll receive a clear view of how connected your campaigns really are, the gaps holding back demand and the priority changes that will turn scattered output into one measurable outcome.
