How Do My Articles Get Discovered? 3 Steps to Rank in AI Search

You’ve written the blog post. You’ve done the research. You hit publish, and nothing happens. If that sounds familiar, the problem likely isn’t your consistency. It’s how your content is structured.

Search has changed. AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google’s AI Overview now pull answers directly from published content. That means the articles that get found are the ones built for both human readers and AI search engines. The old approach of volume and keywords is no longer enough.

This episode is for solopreneurs who are tired of writing content that sits unseen. Marisa walks through a practical, three-part approach for writing long-form content that is discoverable without chasing trends or burning out.
