tes. However, you can just pay these review sites to be put at the top of all their lists and immediately the larger influencers will start recommending you more.

I think it's pretty clear at this point that AI is about to replace traditional search engines, not because people are going to stop using Google, Google use will continue to rise, but because Google themselves are trying to replace their own search results with an AI response as quickly as possible.

I think it's pretty clear at this point that AI is about to replace traditional search engines, not because people are going to stop using Google, Google use will continue to rise, but because Google themselves are trying to replace their own search results with an AI response as quickly as possible. So why is it that most people who are doing SEO are still primarily if not entirely focused on ranking in traditional search results? I think there are two reasons.

r. The closer you look, the more you'll see there's no way out of this puzzle, at least for the foreseeable future. AI will be dependent on websites that can be manipulated. The good news is that it's still easier to be recommended if you're running a good business, easier to get reviews and easier to have people talking about you online. However, if your competitor is running an effective AISCE campaign and you're not, it's probably not gonna matter. They're gonna end up getting recommended more often.
