• The Video Hack for Local Rankings: How to Dominate Google & AI in 2026
Are you still just posting photos to your Google Business Profile? You’re missing the biggest local SEO opportunity of 2026.
Right now, Google is prioritizing video content over almost every other signal. Short, authentic videos posted directly to your Google My Business profile are skyrocketing businesses to the top of the Map Pack, and more importantly, they are feeding the "AI Overviews" and ChatGPT with the fresh data they need to recommend YOU.
In this video, I break down exactly how to use "Micro-Content" to signal authority to Google, Gemini, and ChatGPT—helping you show up for "near me" searches faster than any traditional SEO tactic.
