Episode 14: Google Isn’t Dead, But It Is Changing - The Future of Visibility in an AI-Powered World

There’s a lot of noise out there about SEO being “dead” but that’s not the full story....

In this episode of Diary of the Search Queen, I’m breaking down what’s actually happening inside Google, why your clients are turning to AI for answers, and how to future-proof your brand for this new era of search.

Because here’s the truth:

• Google isn’t going anywhere
• But the way we use it has changed
• And if your business isn’t showing up in AI-generated answers, you’re already invisible to the people searching for what you offer

This episode is for the legacy-led entrepreneurs, marketers, and brands ready to evolve with the platforms not get left behind by them.

In this episode, we cover:

• The difference between SEO and AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation)
• How platforms like ChatGPT and Google’s SGE are changing user behaviour
• What AI needs from your content to rank, recognise, and recommend you
• Why trust signals, clarity, and context matter more than keywords
• And how to build a visibility strategy that works in both the Google and AI-driven search worlds

This episode is for you if:

• You’ve built your business on Google, but feel uncertain about where it’s heading
• You’re tired of chasing short-term trends and want long-term visibility
• You want to be the go-to answer when your dream client searches anywhere
