Majestic's SEO in 2024 - Podcast, Webinar & Book (December 2023)
Majestic invited me back to share my number one tip for SEO in 2024, alongside one hundred of the world's leading SEOs.
My tip for SEO in 2024 was not to worry about what is ahead, rather embrace the changes of the new SGE search world. History shows that SEO is a reslient practice, and the fact that "SEO is dead" has become such a long running joke in the industry goes to show we've been here before. David and I talk about the uncertainties of our industry, performance tracking within SGEs, and how search strategies can be positioned to benefit all users whatever channel they arrive from.

Talks with SEOs: E-E-A-T is Bigger Than SEO - Podcast (August 2023)
I had a really enjoyable conversation with Austine Esezobor on the Talks With SEOs podcast, discussing the value of E-E-A-T principals outside of SEO.
