Brand mentions, backlinks, and AI search with Gordon Meagher
1w ago00:27:35Tap to summarizeChatGPT has about 90% of the LLM market, but LLMs are still only around 15% of total search. Gordon Meagher of uSERP has been doing SEO for 14 years, and his read on AI search is more grounded than the panic cycle on LinkedIn would have you believe. Alex sits down with Gordon to talk about how link building actually works in the LLM era, why a brand mention on a third-party citing source can matter more than the link itself, and what real user behavior looks like once people start shortlisting in ChatGPT and validating on Google.

2w ago00:35:55Tap to summarizeIf you started a content marketing role today with no baggage about what the job used to be, what would it look like?

Transcribe →Be the one who actually cares about content
3w ago00:29:25Tap to summarizeAn okay blog post now takes 30 seconds and one click. That has changed the argument content marketers have to make to leadership, from defending whether content should exist to defending how many hours it's worth spending to make something genuinely good. Eric Doty and Chloe Thompson make the case for being the person on your team who actually cares about quality, and what that argument sounds like when you're pitching budget to a CFO instead of a fellow content nerd This episode is sponsored by beehiiv.Superpath members get 30% off with SUPERPATH30 Chloe’s LinkedIn post on caring about quality Eric's newsletter, on the argument against taste Follow Eric Doty on LinkedIn Follow Chloe Thompson on LinkedIn
Transcribe →Content Marketing Isn’t Just for Robots, with Ryan Sargent
4w ago00:31:46Tap to summarizeThis episode is part of The Art of Content series hosted by Rachel Bicha. In this series, Rachel brings on guests to chat about big picture content marketing theory. Each conversation is centered on a recent that person wrote for The Art of Content blog. In this episode, Rachel is joined by Ryan Sargent to talk about his recent post for the Art of Content blog, Content Marketing Isn't Just for Robots. Ryan's argument: AI writers are now good enough to do most SEO and AEO work, so content marketers should stop trying to out-write the machine and start doing the work only humans can do. He has an analogy for it that he came up with at Costco. Some marketers are reacting by piling caviar on $50 hot dogs nobody wants to buy. Others are eating a thousand mediocre ones and getting their cardiologist rich. Ryan thinks the move is to let the machine make the hot dogs and spend the freed-up time on Michelin star dessert.

Transcribe →Your Employees Are Your AI Search Strategy with Kaleigh Moore
May 1300:35:05Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Eric is joined by Kaleigh Moore to talk about her recent post, Your Employees Are Untapped AI Search Potential.The company blog sits at the bottom of the LLM trust hierarchy. Third-party mentions sit at the top. Most B2B teams are still pouring budget into the layer LLMs trust least. Kaleigh Moore, a former Forbes journalist who now works full-time on AI search strategy, has a framework for fixing it called the Source Signal Stack. She makes the case that employee subject matter experts on LinkedIn are the most overlooked AEO move available, and that employee advocacy and AEO should be the same program rather than two separate ones. Plus why LinkedIn newsletters might become a real AEO surface. This episode is sponsored by uSERP.

Transcribe →Two Community Builders Compare Notes with Milly Tamati
May 600:39:46Tap to summarizeAlex sits down with Milly Tamati, founder of Generalist World, to talk about community building. Less about content, more about building community (with a little behind-the-scenes about where we may be headed with Superpath Pro) Milly lives on a Scottish island with fewer than 200 people and once held the title "Director of Miscellaneous." She built Generalist World on a hunch that magic might happen when generalists got in a room. Alex sat down with her for an in-person recording in New York for her take on what makes communities work, why switching to lifetime memberships was the scariest call she's made, and what Superpath should be doing differently.This episode is sponsored by uSERP.

Apr 2900:39:18Tap to summarizeThis episode is part of The Art of Content series hosted by Rachel Bicha. In this series, Rachel brings on guests to chat about big picture content marketing theory. Each conversation is centered on a recent that person wrote for The Art of Content blog. Today’s guest is Deedi Brown talking about her recent post, Your Social Media Person Belongs on the Content Team.Deedi Brown, Head of Content at Bubble, runs a team that includes social media, video, editorial, and product enablement. She also hasn't checked her blog traffic in months. Her argument is simple: social media is a content channel now, not a distribution one. Platforms punish outbound links, audiences don't want to leave, and the old model of chopping a blog post into social captions stopped working a while ago. This conversation gets into what it looks like to actually restructure around that, how to measure when you're not driving everything back to a blog, and why chasing impressions and engagements separately creates perverse incentives for both.

Transcribe →The Budget Mistake Everyone's Making with GEO with Jeremy Moser
Apr 2300:29:30Tap to summarizeThis episode is an interview with Jeremy Moser, co-founder of uSERP. Jeremy Moser talks to 30-plus new companies a month, and he keeps seeing the same thing: teams comparing their best AI search leads against their entire SEO pipeline and making budget decisions based on a comparison that doesn't hold up. About 36% of uSERP's own leads self-report as coming from AI search, and even that number is murky once you factor in all the other touchpoints along the way. This one gets into where that logic breaks down, why cutting SEO to fund GEO tends to backfire when training data refreshes, and where Jeremy thinks content marketers should actually be spending their time right now.

That disconnect says a lot about where content marketing is right now. Jimmy, Eric, and Chloe riff on Jimmy's recent Superpath post about three shifts that aren't reversing: writing as a less commercially viable skill, a marketing skillset that now includes things marketers were never asked to do, and reputation as your most durable career asset. Chloe has some pushback. Eric has a $200K blog post story. This episode is sponsored by uSERP.
