E860: Julian Goldie joins the pod! This episode is the rise, setback, and rebound of one of the most talked-about SEO operators in the space. From rapid AI content experiments to the Google penalty that hit an entire group of creators on the same day, to rebuilding and growing bigger than before, this is a full breakdown of what happens when scale meets search engines.
We get into practical strategy, experimentation, and mindset. If you're building websites, doing SEO, or growing a personal brand, this conversation will help you understand what matters and what doesn't.
We cover: - How Julian scaled content using AI before most people noticed the opportunity - The exact moment Google penalized his sites and why multiple creators got hit at once - Why separating sites in Search Console matters - How to handle setbacks without losing momentum - Keyword research frameworks that are simple and repeatable - How to find low competition, high intent keywords that convert - A clear approach to backlinks, outreach, and negotiation - The role of volume in content growth across YouTube, X, and blogs - Why documenting experiments builds trust faster than teaching theory - How to build resilience when growth slows or stagnates
If you want to grow in SEO, consider this discussion a field report.
