Search has always driven web traffic… but what is SEO in the era of AI? And how will that impact our creative businesses in 2026?

Today I’m joined by SEO expert, podcaster and romance novelist (!) Meg Casebolt, who’s here to help us understand the current landscape of search and how AI is remapping the web.

Tune in to learn:

• What's shifting in the world of SEO — including AIO, GEO, AEO & LLMEO
• How these changes might just liberate us from Google…
• Why you never need to use keyword tools again!
• Tips for optimizing your digital presence in 2026 — whether you’re just starting out or have a lot online already
• How to think about search if you’re not interested in using AI
• Why Meg is returning to blogging in 2026
   

This conversation made me stop stressing about AI and quit worrying if anyone will ever find my website again. Tune in, read Meg’s blog, and enjoy! 🙏
