We’re back from Tech SEO Connect!

And we brought Mark Williams-Cook to pinch-hit for Mordy while he was on holiday….and last minute, so there’s that.

We dialed into some things that we missed while we were away. For starters, the Semrush buyout of Search Engine Land is huge news, and we have even bigger news! Marc Sirkin, Danny Goodwin, and Barry Schwartz will be on the show soon to discuss the event.

Matt Mullenweg seems to be melting down about First Amendment claims against WP Engine. The WordPress community seems to be up in arms, at least in our “bubble.” Deep dive there!

Google's leadership shuffle and what Kevin Indig had to say about it.

AI News and a really cool, we think, AI Tool for this episode. Check it out.
