15 Mind-Blowing AI Tools You’re Not Using Yet

24/06/2025

AI isn’t killing SEO. It’s creating the biggest opportunity gap I’ve seen in my 16 years of doing this.

Here are 6 methods we’re using to dominate search across AI platforms in 2025:

1. Entity optimization

ChatGPT, Gemini, and other LLMs don’t just scan for keywords.

They look for entities: businesses, people, and products they can recognize and trust.

Want your brand to show up more in AI answers?

Make it easy for AI to verify who you are:

- Claim Google Business Profile, Bing Places, Apple Maps listings
- Get listed on Yellow Pages, BBB, and industry directories
- Add organization schema to your website with detailed business info
- Syndicate content across Medium, LinkedIn, Reddit (AI crawls these heavily)
- Secure mentions in "Best of" listicles that AI systems cite

2. AI-friendly writing

Content tactics that make Google and other AI platforms want to cite you:

- Write for conversational queries ("What's the best way to..." vs "best way")
- Use clear H1, H2, H3 headings as content signposts
- Add TL;DR summaries at the top of articles
- Answer "People Also Ask" questions within your content
- Keep explanations direct, concise and NLP-friendly.

3. Brand searches

Google tracks how many people search for your company name.

More brand searches = higher trust = increased chance of getting cited in AI Overviews and Gemini.

Quick ways to spike brand searches:

- Post job listings (applicants always Google companies)
- Get mentioned in "Best of" roundups
- Run cheap engagement ads in your target country
- Create YouTube content (builds brand awareness faster than anything)

4. Traditional SEO signals

Backlinks, reviews, and E-E-A-T aren’t dead. They influence how AI models pick and cite content.

Want a stronger AI foundation?

- Build high-quality backlinks from relevant domains
- Collect Google Reviews and showcase social proof
- Display industry certifications and awards prominently
- Maintain accurate, up-to-date business information across platforms

5. Video content

Google's AI Overviews and Perplexity are increasingly citing YouTube videos, especially for tutorials, product demos and product comparison queries.

There is also less competition since most creators focus only on text content.

- Embed videos in blog posts (longer dwell time = higher organic rankings too)
- Upload them on YouTube for more AI visibility
- Structure videos with clear timestamps and descriptions (AI systems parse these for context)

6. Technical foundation

Before chasing advanced tactics, nail the boring stuff first:

- SSL certificate installed
- Mobile-friendly design
- Clear navigation structure
- No broken links or 404 errors
- Proper ‘About Us’ and contact pages

Foodpanda exits Thailand, a few thoughts on what went wrong and the challenges they faced.

After 13 years operating in Thailand, Foodpanda has announced its exit by May 23, 2025. Despite being the first food delivery app available across all 77 provinces, the company consistently struggled financially, accumulating losses of around 13.36 billion baht (approximately $399 million) between 2019 and 2023. Failing to ever make an annual profit.

Market dominance remained elusive, with Foodpanda capturing just under 15% of market share, trailing behind strong competitors like Lineman Wongnai (44%) and GrabFood (39.4%). Attempts to find a buyer, including discussions with major players such as Grab and Meituan, ultimately fell through, perhaps sealing their decision to withdraw.

Beyond financial struggles, Foodpanda faced significant political and social backlash. A major incident in July 2021, where the company controversially labeled a protesting rider a "terrorist," sparked a widespread boycott under the hashtag ( ), resulting in around 2 million app deletions and numerous restaurant partnerships dissolving overnight.

Additionally, Foodpanda faced labour disputes, notably in Chiang Mai in August 2021, where riders protested sudden pay cuts, further deteriorating public relations and workforce morale.

Their aggressive approach, charging high fees to restaurants while heavily discounting to attract consumers, also strained key relationships and drew criticism.

Anecdotally, the user base seemed to be pretty much exclusively expats, a tiny fraction of the market in Thailand, with most Thais preferring Lineman or Grab. This was mainly down to Foodpanda having English menus from day one, something Grab didn’t achieve until many years later and still hasn’t fully adopted. However, once their rivals started offering English-language options, a lot of Foodpanda’s loyal customer base moved over (me included).

Foodpanda’s exit highlights crucial lessons about navigating a competitive market, appealing to the local demographic, being culturally and politically in tune, and the importance of balancing aggressive growth with long-term sustainability.

What are your thoughts on Foodpanda's departure from Thailand? I'd be interested to hear other perspectives.

Do this to rank in DAYS not WEEKS... 👇

- Open Google Search Console
- Export the last 3 months of data to a Google Sheet.

Filter for pages published in the last 3 months.

Sort by highest impressions.

Now, you've got a game-changer list! 💪

These are pages Google is showing, but people aren’t clicking.

Do this…

- Take the top 3 ranking URLs for your target keyword

- Drop them into ChatGPT with this prompt:

"Analyze these pages and tell me what common sub-topics they all cover.

Then find gaps - what topics are they missing or barely touching?"

Next, apply the fixes:

✅ Go to your own page that’s stuck on page 1 but not in the top 3

✅ Add the missing angles, FAQs, or sections ChatGPT found
