Hi, I'm Ralph Peterson of 7 Trillion SEO, and this is the AI Search Briefing Weekend Recap number seven. Let's take a quick look back at what we learned this past week, and if you missed any of these, I'd highly recommend that you go back and listen to each one. Hey, they're only about two minutes long. You've got the time, right? On Monday we talked about the rumor that you don't need meta tags anymore. The truth? Meta tags may not carry the ranking weight they once did, but they still help search engines, AI systems, and people understand what your business is about. Ignore them, and you're leaving valuable resources behind. On Tuesday we learned a new word, dimorphic. Does that sound like a transformer word or what? Dimorphic. What the heck does that mean? It means your business has two forms. One that your customers see and the one that AI sees. The question isn't whether your website looks good to people, it's whether AI has enough trusted information from your website to confidently recommend your business. On Wednesday, we looked at the growing wave of AI advertising, why it's a sign that businesses are realizing search behavior is changing. People aren't always searching using the big G anymore, they're asking AI. And now SEO companies and businesses are racing to be a part of those answers for AI. And on Thursday we talked about your experience and how AI doesn't trust your experience unless you show it. If you don't show it, how's it gonna know it? Hey, that rhymed. And on Friday we talked about three things you can do this weekend to help AI recommend your business. I highly recommend you go back and listen to that. I'm not gonna recap everything about it because there's so much information there. And before we wrap up this weekend recap, join me on Monday because we're going to challenge one of the oldest rules in SEO. For years we've been told create content that targets long tail keywords. But in the age of AI search, is that the best advice? We'll find out in the next episode of the AI Search Briefing. I'm Ralph Peterson of 7 Trillion SEO. Think big, be trusted, be recommended. Dimorphic, that's a wrap. See you next week.
