from Relationship Marketing · host Brad Smith
It's the wild, wild west, baby. Things have changed. Google just made a huge change to make sure that they dominate the market and to actually restrict these AI crawlers from finding your business. My podcast is going to break down exactly what you should do to be the top search result in AI searches. I think right now is the wild, wild west. It's the gold mine where you can actually go be that top search result. Now, AI knows if you're a spam bot and you're going out there and you're trying to get these links into all these businesses to try to get better results and scam the system, they're going to shut you down. And it's the legitimate, trustworthy business owners that do the right thing, but also create the best content that's helpful and educational. That that's what's going to be the ones that stand out.Four common questions:Q: How do I get my business to show up in ChatGPT search results?A: Create helpful "how-to" YouTube videos, transcribe them into authentic blog content, and distribute across 9 key platforms including podcasts, LinkedIn articles, Medium, and Reddit. AI engines prioritize genuine, educational content over spam.Q: What type of content ranks highest in AI search engines?A: Educational content that answers specific questions starting with "how to" or "what is" related to your business. The key is using your authentic voice through video transcriptions rather than AI-generated text, as AI can detect and prioritize genuine human content.Q: Which platforms should I focus on for AI SEO in 2025?A: Start with YouTube (Google owns it), then expand to podcasts, your website blog, LinkedIn articles, Medium, X/Twitter articles, Reddit, and email newsletters. Also create short-form content for Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, and YouTube Shorts.Q: How long does it take to see results from AI SEO strategies?A: With proper indexing techniques, you can see YouTube videos ranking on Google's first page within 6 days. However, building comprehensive authority across all platforms typically takes 2-4 weeks for initial traction, with long-term growth occurring over months of consistent implementation.
