The Simple and Smart SEO Show From SEO to AI: Training Chatbots to Recommend Your Brand with Andy Crestodina
In this episode of the Simple and Smart SEO Show, Crystal Waddell (me!) sits down with Andy Crestodina, co-founder of Orbit Media, to explore SEO, AI, and content marketing.
Andy shares his insights on how search behavior is shifting, the importance of training AI to recognize and recommend your brand.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
- AI Search vs. Traditional Search: Traditional search finds options, while AI delivers recommendations—understanding this is key to visibility and conversions.
- Prompt Reverse Engineering: Tailor your content to include job titles, outcomes, and proof points to train AI systems like ChatGPT to recommend your brand.
- The Right Use of Video: Avoid using YouTube on money pages; instead, use native or pro players to reduce distractions and increase conversions.
- Influencer Collaboration: Use content creation as a networking tool—quotes, features, and joint content can build relationships and grow visibility.
🎯 Listener Action Items:
- Audit Your Content for AI Readiness: Check if your service or product pages include context-rich keywords like job titles, outcomes, and proof points.
- Compare Yourself in ChatGPT: Ask GPT how your brand stacks up against competitors and use the gaps it reveals to refine your messaging.
- Capture UGC: Identify and reuse TikTok or Instagram content from real users of your product—this is gold for conversions.
