Listen Later

Most marketers still obsess over Google blue links. We’re here to show why that’s yesterday’s game.

We sat down with SEO legend Sam Dunning to unpack the new frontier of search: LLM SEO (aka Generative Engine Optimisation). Sam reveals a repeatable 90-day plan that gets your brand cited - not just ranked - inside ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google’s AI Overview.


You’ll hear the exact tactics small teams can use to out-manoeuvre enterprise giants: think listicle “cheat codes”, brand-mention campaigns, and Reddit seeding that LLMs love.


Tune in and learn:

+ Zero-click search - why clicks are disappearing and how to adapt

+ Brand mentions are better than backlinks - the new authority signal LLMs crave

+ 90-day sprint - ship pages, listicles and PR faster than big brands


This episode is a must-watch if you need organic search to drive pipeline (not vanity traffic) in 2025 and beyond.
