    Google Will Kill Your Traffic - Here's How You Adapt | Kevin Indig (Growth Memo)

    AI Overviews are changing search — but not in the way Google wants you to think. In this episode of the Ahrefs Podcast, Tim Soulo sits down with Kevin Indig to discuss the real impact of AI on search behavior, website traffic, and SEO strategy. Kevin analyzed over 5 billion search visits and found that while people are searching more often, they’re spending less time per session — and zero-click searches are on the rise. But this isn’t just about traffic. Kevin argues that SEO isn’t dying — it’s just entering a new investment cycle. The smartest companies are already shifting resources toward AI visibility, building tools, and rethinking how they show up in ChatGPT and beyond. In this episode: (00:00) Intro (02:39) How is search changing?

    AI Writing at Scale: Ahrefs’ Step-by-Step Workflow | Ryan Law (Ahrefs)

    Tim Soulo posted on LinkedIn asking if anyone wanted the full breakdown of the publishing process behind Ahrefs’ AI-written articles that actually ranked. Over 400 people commented “do it.” This episode is the result. Ryan Law, Director of Content Marketing at Ahrefs, walks Tim through the entire AI content workflow he built — from crafting detailed briefs to editing hallucinated links. It’s not a “push-button” prompt. It’s a repeatable system that combines ChatGPT with real editorial oversight. And the results are nearly indistinguishable from human-written content. You’ll hear how Ryan builds outlines, adds expert-level insight, handles internal linking, and avoids the usual AI traps. If you’re serious about using AI in your content strategy — and not just experimenting — this is the episode to watch.
