    🌐There is no doubt that AI has changed the future of marketing forever. However, as we enter a multi-search world, do businesses truly understand how the landscape has evolved, and do marketers truly understand both the implications and diverse array of opportunities ahead? 💡   🔎In my first @LinkedInPulse post, I delve much deeper into how I see the future evolving.   1. Why new investments and innovations are fragmenting the search and marketing space. 2. How new AI-led search engines work, where they are similar, and where they differ. 3. Where and why your brand should focus on your right to win prime online real estate. 4. What businesses, brands, and marketers can do to prepare and succeed in a multi-search universe.   🚀As Jeff Bezos famously said, “We are now solving problems with machine learning and artificial intelligence that were in the realm of science fiction for the last several decades.”   I would love to hear your thoughts.   🔗 Let's connect and discuss!   #FutureOfMarketing #AI #GenAI #searchmarketing #SEO #content

    With 2 out of 5 Americans using TikTok as a search engine, the SEO and social renaissance continues alongside the emergence of multiple types of AI search engines. The relationship between search and social has always been strong. It is becoming even more valuable as more social and user-generated content demand is on the rise. 🔍This is something we see daily via BrightEdge Generative Parser™ (BGP) as more social networks and content surfaces, and more of their domains are cited in both SGE and Perplexity AI results. 🔍 The Search and AI space is so hot right now, and the race to serve user intent, regardless of the engine, platform, or entry point, is on!  🏁 Content, search, and social partnerships are happening, platforms are growing and morphing, and new AI-led search engines are emerging weekly. 💡 It’s all great news for marketers who focus on the core practices of good SEO and content. Founder and Executive Chair Jim Yu shares more on Digiday and in his social post below! 📈 As always, we will be monitoring and detecting patterns via BGP to help you stay ahead of all these changes. Stay tuned for more insights soon! 📊 #searchandsocial #UGC #content #tech #SEO

    Did you know TikTok is rapidly becoming a new favorite #searchengine – especially among #GenZ? 🔍 Two in five Americans now use #TikTok as a search engine... And Tiktok is recognizing the power of search value and starting to provide marketers keyword insights! 👍 I recently spoke with Antoinette S. at Digiday about how the increasing convergence of generative AI and social media will impact the future of search – and how marketers can augment their content strategies to stay ahead of the competition. 🏆   👓 With #TikTok's new monetization program prioritizing "search value," brands must produce content aligned with user searches in order to maximize search visibility.   🏷️ However marketers will have to think beyond leveraging precise keywords and focus on creating high quality content that directly addresses user needs and interests.    🔑 The key to brand discoverability in this new era is content authority: expanding the terms and queries that your brand dominates the industry in.    While the broader search landscape continues to evolve with the integration of AI, recent BrightEdge data has shown that Google's SGE is expected to impact 84% of queries on Google Search – with B2B tech, healthcare and e-commerce industries most vulnerable.    💰That’s $40 billion per year in ad revenue. Is your brand prepared for these new challenges and opportunities? 💭 https://lnkd.in/dTHGm43G

    💡 As Google SGE rolls out, marketers and brands must prepare to adapt to a ‘search engine's opinion’. It was back in December of last year when we launched the industry’s first Ultimate Guide to SGE.   BrightEdge has been updating it ever since, showing experimental changes and providing key indicators and signals as to its potential rollout.   🚀Now it's finally out in the wild and being tested in standard results. Understanding its potential impact on your industry and what best practices to follow is a question I get every day.   It was great to help address these questions and share more insights over at Content Marketing Institute, including:   🔍 The fundamental shift in how a search engine responds to queries. 📈 How this shift will lead to higher-quality traffic. 🔒 Why brands need to laser-focus their attention on brand reputation and authority. 🛠️ How to prepare for further impact, nuances, and industry-specific content.   And there’s more just in!   In late March, BrightEdge Generative Parser™ found:   🎯 New intent-based modules are emerging: To produce experiences that match users' needs, it is becoming essential to understand what experiences are shown based on navigational, informational, and purchase-led intent.   👥 More personalization is happening Google is crafting individualized modules such as listen buttons for audio and accessibility experiences.   🖼️ Product viewer experimentation is still ongoing: Large image-based product viewers can take up a significant proportion of the result page real estate. As a result, in some instances, we are seeing some shrinkage in the size (pixels) of some modules. Is there space for ads?   As we look to the post-Generative future, remember, whoever provides the best experience for their target consumers will win.   🏆 Make sure your brand has the right to win!   https://lnkd.in/g9V7vcB2   #SGE #Contentmarketingstrategy #SEOinsights #GenAI

    As more people look for research, quick answers, reviews, locations, and more, multiple AI-led search engines are catering to specific needs and intent.

Founder and Executive Chairman Jim Yu shares our latest research and his thoughts on the importance of citations, sources, and brand authority when optimizing for multiple types of search engines. https://lnkd.in/eN7tGNY5

    🌟 In a post-generative AI world, citations are the new rankings. For brands to win, they need to be the cited source.   📊 In a recent survey of 300 marketers at BrightEdge found:   • 52% are actively experimenting with SGE. • 17% are experimenting with Perplexity. • When Google started SGE, and we ran a similar survey last fall, it was 13%.   🔍 It is becoming clear that marketers are testing new AI search models.   🚀 While I do not see this as a threat to Google’s 90% market share, there is a niche where new entrants can exist and thrive. For example, Perplexity shows “drastically” more citations in Restaurant and Travel responses.   😊 I really enjoyed speaking with Danny Goodwin Search Engine Land and sharing additional insights from BrightEdge Generative Parser™.   You can also access more findings in our Ultimate Guide to Perplexity also!   Enjoy reading!   #Searchengineland #Google #Perplixty #Parsing #GenAI https://lnkd.in/gM5amT_Z   https://lnkd.in/gEKA7sgn

    Are you prepared for the rise of new AI search engines? Founder Jim Yu explains the key differences and areas of opportunity for existing search marketers on VentureBeat. Based on the research we released this week on Perplexity, Jim shares his thoughts on the whole market and how to adapt as AI search models evolve. This includes: 💡 Identify the areas where you have the best expertise from a topic perspective. Where does your brand have the right to win with your content? 🔍 Ensure your site has structured information for AI search engines. AI models need to understand the context behind your site and content to help cite the source of the information they pull. You are off to a great start if you are already doing SEO well. 👥Break down any frictional silos within your organization. New AI experiences glue everything together, so optimizing for the Generative AI web requires help from everyone in marketing and across wider departmental teams.

    I had a great conversation with @VentureBeat today on how search and AI models are evolving and how #Perplexity is gaining momentum in the market.   🔄The convergence of search and AI is moving faster than anything I have witnessed in my time.   As we enter a new phase of multi-search universe, marketers must leverage emerging AI search platforms and adapt to the different models they are testing (including monetization).   Perplexity is a great example!   🌊 The surge of capital in AI has created the perfect storm for Perplexity to make waves 🤖It is breaking new barriers with its new conversational research approach to AI. 📈If it continues its 40% MoM referral growth trajectory, it could become a key player.   Going forward, #GenAI engines must create new areas of expertise and negotiate deals with online communities to obtain the training data they need for their model.   Google will still hold its dominant position, but for the new entrants who can differentiate, it is all about capturing more real estate.   💰If you are one of those new entrants to the AI and search space, remember that a small slice of the market can yield billions in revenue.   #Perplexity #SearchRevolution #AIInnovation #venturebeat   https://lnkd.in/gKjM7YnG
