SEO has changed, and if you’re only thinking “blog posts,” you’re missing one of the fastest ways to get discovered right now: short-form video.

In this episode of Side Hustle Suitcase, I’ll show you how search behavior is shifting, why Google is indexing video insanely fast, and how you can use a simple “b-roll + voiceover” format to get your content found quicker.

I share two real examples:

1. A test live stream from the Last Bear Moon Powwow that showed up in Google search results within minutes
2. A short-form video about the 2026 Powwow Calendar that now appears when people search “2026 powwow calendar”

The takeaway: take your pillar content (the topics you want to be known for) and turn it into strategic short-form videos that are easy for both people and search engines to understand.
