What the episode covered

In today’s episode, Gert talks about omnipresence and its relevance to SEO and online marketing. He points out that it’s not enough just to be all over the internet, but to place your brand strategically where your target audience is always available.

Gert also highlights the growing importance of AI and large language models in shaping brand perception. He explains how these models use content from various sources to train themselves, making it crucial for brands to actively engage with their audience across different platforms. This engagement not only influences how AI perceives your brand but also impacts your visibility in search results.

What I would emphasize today

Search has moved beyond one channel. Google still matters, but your buyers also use AI answers, YouTube, Reddit, reviews, communities, and comparison content before they decide.

That means the practical question is not just “does this rank?” The better question is: does this help the right buyer find enough proof to trust us?

How to apply this now

  1. Diagnose the actual visibility gap.
  2. Check whether the buyer researches this topic on Google, AI tools, YouTube, Reddit, or another platform.
  3. Create the asset that answers the question clearly.
  4. Add proof, examples, and structure so both humans and AI systems can understand it.
  5. Measure whether the work leads to better qualified demand, not just more traffic.

My current take

The topic still matters, but the playbook has changed. SEO is no longer only about ranking a page. It is about being present with the right answer, on the right platform, at the moment the buyer is forming trust.

If you want to know where your visibility gaps are now, start with a diagnostic call or the AI Readiness Check.
