How To Appear on Google's AI Overviews

@JespernissenSEO Hi Jesper - just DM'd you

@JHTScherck So am I. I'm really concerned about this

There's a belief among seed and series A (first time) founders that the right way to approach SEO is programmatic content scaling. Not sure where it's coming from, but seeing it on calls more and more, like it's the easy, obvious path to accelerate growth... and buddy — it's not

Only 15% of pages ChatGPT retrieved during answer generation, get cited. (AirOps March Research Report)

@adcrookes @MattGSouthern can you plz share the link?

ChatGPT's Default & Premium Models Search The Web Differently Great article from @MattGSouthern GPT-5.4 cited brand websites at a far higher rate than GPT-5.3. There was almost no citation overlap between models on the same prompts.

@nichegrownerd What's your main source of traffic? Organic search?

Yesterday was another fantastic day for one of my other sites Almost 10k pageviews in a day

@nicopuhlmann Yep, there's a lot of truth to this.

As for those who chase every new algorithm update - they follow the vague parts, looking for shortcuts and loopholes that confirm what they already want to do. - Every SEO space, every year

@vicberggren @lilyraynyc When I start reading an article and realize it's AI-generated...it's an instant turn-off. These articles have high bounce rates and do nothing to inspire brand trust.

@adcrookes @lilyraynyc Easy value. When you get outside the AI sphere and talk with regular people AI is highly unpopular for a variety of reasons. I see that as demand for human-led.

This feels inevitable for all platforms.

@itsmarcosruiz That’s encouraging

Most of our qualified lead flow comes from X-booked calls. Where most founders spend their time: • Instagram reels • TikTok trends • YouTube Shorts Where the actual B2B money is: • X/Twitter DMs • LinkedIn conversations It's less production, way higher revenue per impression, and less competition than Instagram or TikTok. If you run a service business and you're ignoring X and LinkedIn, you're skipping the two platforms where buyers actually make decisions.

@soltwagner How many of these are monetized?

@nichegrownerd What’s the traffic threshold hold? Haven’t been following

Good news 🎉🙌 Two more sites just got accepted into Mediavine Journey - making it a total of 5 sites on Journey right now. - 2 on Ezoic - 5 on Journey - 1 almost ready for Raptive 6 are still in review on Journey If you’re not inside the Build-With-Me Plan right now, seriously what are you doing? You’re missing out on SO much while 63 members already scale their site(s) with me

@DougKennedy93 SuperX is very good. And that’s coming from someone who is extremely sceptical about scheduling tools in general

Are you currently using any scheduling tools for socials?

@WhiskyToad I generally take impressions on GSC with a grain of salt

NOBODY cares about your SEO graph. More impressions. More clicks. More traffic. Cool story. If you don’t even have 10 users who care about your product, traffic isn’t your problem.

@vicberggren @lilyraynyc Absolutely correct. Probably gonna have to use this quote in a post soon and attribute it to you, of course.

@lilyraynyc Human-led is the moat. Some aren't seeing it.

@seosagez @RyanJones Super interested to see this thread. Did you post it?

I'll make thread on this tomorrow 📌 @RyanJones is right by 80% and I'll explain why and how.

@lilyraynyc I'm pretty sure this is an unspoken rule that most algos enforce now. Duplicate Instagram reels have seen less reach for a while

@JespernissenSEO Yes, I did briefly wonder about LinkedIn Pulse! Haha

@adcrookes Yes, I use it to index my Linkedin posts, and its very effective for that. Not Linkedin Pulse, as they wont index though...

Indexing of social media posts using primeindexer.com I just posted across 8 social media platforms, and got all posts indexed in 5 minutes.. I use my own primeindexer for it. Its perfect for indexing of especially social media posts, I personally get almost all posts indexed... Check it out, you need it if you are doing parasite seo.. #parasiteseo #jespernissenseo

@glenngabe Android has 70% market share, so this is extremely good news for Gemini adoption.

Gemini’s task automation is here and it’s wild (starting on the Galaxy S26). Everyone has been focused on agents on the desktop, but this is Gemini running on your phone completing tasks... "The first prompt I gave it was pretty simple: order an Uber to the airport. Gemini asked for clarification to determine which airport (a good question to ask!), then it went through a couple of steps on its own: adding the destination and opting to skip the step where you specify your airline, which doesn’t really matter at my local airport since it’s all in one terminal. As promised, the system stopped before the final step and prompted me to review the details before putting in the request for a car." theverge.com/tech/893820/ge…
