If I had to start SEO from scratch in 2026, this is exactly what I’d do.


Traditional Google SEO isn’t dead but it’s no longer enough. You have to win across Google, YouTube, Reddit, LinkedIn, and AI search like ChatGPT and Perplexity at the same time.


In this video, I break down the five shifts that matter now. Search everywhere optimization. Freshness and content velocity. AI workflows that 10x output with humans in the loop. And how to actually measure success when AI mentions matter as much as rankings.


If you’re still playing the 2020 SEO playbook, you’re already behind.
