In this video, I talk about what businesses should really be focusing on if they want their website to perform well in both traditional search engines and AI platforms.

There's a lot of discussion around AI optimisation at the moment, but the reality is that the fundamentals haven't changed.

A strong website still needs:

🔸 Fast loading pages
🔸 Modern technology
🔸 High-quality design
🔸 Content that builds trust with real people

Those foundations are just as important today as they've always been.

I also explain why it's better to create dedicated pages for each of your services rather than trying to squeeze everything onto one "Services" page.

For example, if you're a builder, having separate pages for kitchens, bathrooms, and extensions gives both search engines and potential customers a much clearer understanding of what you do.

The more relevant, high-quality content you have on your website, the better.

Adding:

🔸 Individual service pages
🔸 Case studies
🔸 FAQs

helps build authority and gives both search engines and AI platforms more useful information to work with.

One area that's becoming increasingly valuable is FAQs.

Question-and-answer content is easy for both visitors and AI tools to understand, making it a great addition to almost any website.

I also recommend making the problems you solve immediately obvious on your homepage.

When visitors arrive on your website, they should quickly understand:

🔸 Who you help
🔸 What problems you solve
🔸 Why they should choose you

Ultimately, many of the tactics being discussed for AI optimisation are simply good SEO practices that have worked for years.

Focus on creating a website that's useful, informative, and built around your customers, and you'll be putting your business in the best possible position for both search engines and AI.

Google doesn't send people to websites like it used to

More and more searches now get answered directly on the results page, before anyone even clicks through.

That's a big shift. It means simply "having a website" and hoping to rank isn't enough anymore.

What still gets you noticed:

🔸 Clear, honest content that shows real expertise, not just generic filler
🔸 A fast, mobile-first site that doesn't frustrate people who do click through
🔸 An up to date Google Business Profile, especially for local searches
🔸 Genuine trust signals, reviews, credentials, real photos of your work
🔸 A website built to convert the visitors you do get, not just attract them

The businesses doing well in this new landscape aren't the ones with the flashiest sites. They're the ones being upfront, useful, and easy to verify.

I speak to a lot of small business owners who've built up a decent social media presence and wonder why they need a website on top of that.

It's a fair question. But here's the thing.

Social media platforms are rented space. You don't own your following, you don't control the algorithm, and the rules can change at any time.

A website is yours. It works for you around the clock, it shows up in Google, and it's where you get to present your business exactly the way you want.

There are things a website does that social media simply can't:

🔸 Rank in Google and bring in people who've never heard of you
🔸 Provide a professional space to showcase your services in detail
🔸 Build credibility with a proper domain email address
🔸 Capture enquiries and leads even when you're not online
🔸 Give customers somewhere to land when they search for you by name

Social media and a website work brilliantly together. But one isn't a replacement for the other.

In this video, I talk about one of the biggest risks I see with AI… becoming too reliant on it.

AI can save an incredible amount of time.

But that doesn't mean everything it produces should be copied and pasted without a second thought.

It's surprisingly easy to become lazy with AI.

You ask it a question, it gives you an answer, and before you know it, you've published something without checking whether it's accurate, whether it reflects your business, or even whether it sounds like you.

That's where problems can start.

Incorrect information can damage your credibility, but even when the facts are right, content that feels unnatural can subtly undermine trust.

People are becoming much better at recognising AI-generated content.

If everything you publish sounds the same, lacks personality, or doesn't reflect your brand, potential customers can quickly lose interest.

Another challenge is consistency.

AI is very good at creating individual pieces of content, but without human direction, your website or blog can end up feeling disconnected.

The tone changes.

Topics don't naturally link together.

Your overall message becomes less clear.

That's why I always recommend using AI as a tool to support your content, not replace your judgement.

Your expertise, your personality, and your understanding of your customers are still what make your business unique.

AI can help you work faster, but it's the human input that makes your content worth reading.

If you'd like to chat about creating a website and content that genuinely reflects your business, I'd be happy to help.

With costs rising across the board, it's understandable that many businesses are reviewing their spending.

But before you reach for the marketing budget, I'd encourage you to read my latest article.

It explores why becoming less visible when customers are actively looking for businesses like yours could end up costing far more than it saves. Instead of asking "What can we cut?", perhaps the better question is "How can we make our marketing work harder?"

If you've been reviewing budgets recently, this one's well worth five minutes of your time.

Most people decide whether to trust a business within seconds of landing on its website.

It's not fair, but it's true. If your website looks dated, loads slowly, or doesn't work properly on mobile, a lot of potential customers will just leave.

And they won't tell you why. They'll just find someone else.

A few things that can quietly undermine trust:

🔸 An old design that doesn't reflect the quality of your work
🔸 A site that isn't mobile-friendly in a world where most people browse on their phone
🔸 Pages that take too long to load
🔸 No clear contact information or call to action
🔸 No SSL certificate, showing the "Not Secure" warning in the browser

Your website is often the first proper interaction someone has with your business.
It should be working for you, not against you.

If you'd like a second opinion on what your website is doing right and where it might be letting you down, I'd love to have a look.

The way people find businesses online is shifting.

More and more, people are typing full questions into search engines and getting direct answers rather than a list of links. AI-powered search tools are pulling content from websites to answer those questions.

Which means the businesses that benefit most are the ones whose websites actually answer real questions clearly.

If your website is just a list of services with a few nice photos, it's much harder for AI and search tools to understand what problem you solve.

A few things worth thinking about:

🔸 Do your pages answer the specific questions your customers ask?
🔸 Is the language plain and easy to follow, or full of industry jargon?
🔸 Have you got an FAQ section covering the things people want to know before getting in touch?
🔸 Is your location, service area, and contact information easy to find?

This isn't complicated. It's about writing for real people, not just search engines.

People often ask me whether traditional SEO still works now that AI is becoming a bigger part of search.

Here's some real-world data from one of our it’seeze customers.

They've had an it’seeze Shop website for around four years and have consistently added new products and fresh content.

From an SEO point of view, they've kept things simple:

🔸 Well-written product descriptions
🔸 Good on-page SEO
🔸 Regular content updates (although blogging has taken a bit of a back seat recently as the business has been busy!)

The results speak for themselves.

In the graph below:

🟢 Green line = Organic search traffic
🟣 Purple line = Google AI Overview (AIO) traffic

📈 June Organic Traffic: 6,000 visits
🤖 Google AI Overview Traffic: 300 visits

The business sells gardening products, so traffic is naturally seasonal, yet they're ranking number one in the UK for some highly competitive gardening search terms.

For me, this reinforces what I've been saying for some time.

Good, traditional SEO still works.

It doesn't just help your website rank in search engines, it also helps AI understand your content and surface it in AI-generated search results.

I'm still not convinced that most people are using dedicated AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude or Perplexity to search for products and local services. The bigger opportunity right now is Google's AI Overview, and that's where strong SEO continues to make a real difference.

Things are evolving quickly, and it's important to stay informed, but don't be distracted by all the headlines telling you your website is "being left behind by AI".

Get the fundamentals right, keep adding quality content, and you'll put yourself in the strongest position for both traditional search and AI.

In this video, I talk about where I think AI can be incredibly useful when building a website and where you still need to be careful.

I use AI regularly as part of my workflow, but I see it as an assistant, not a replacement.

One of the biggest advantages is how quickly it can help with the early stages of a project.

It can help generate:
🔸 Initial ideas
🔸 Page structures
🔸 Content outlines
🔸 Brainstorming sessions

That can save a huge amount of time.

Personally, I've found Claude to be particularly good at learning about a business by analysing documents and building a deeper understanding of the information you provide. Like any AI tool, though, the quality of the output depends on how well you prompt it and the information you give it.

Where I think people need to be cautious is when they rely on AI to produce final content without checking it.

AI can and does make mistakes.

I've seen it invent information, change names, and confidently present incorrect facts as though they're true.

That's why I always believe there needs to be a human making the final editorial decisions.

AI should help speed up the process, but accuracy, consistency, and quality still come from human oversight.

Used properly, AI is an incredibly powerful tool.

Used without checking, it can quickly undermine trust in your business.
