Want traffic from AI search engines? Here's what works 🚀
SEO basics still matter in 2025. 💥
Hello, my friend!
In my previous newsletter, I shared some thoughts on Google’s new AI Mode and how I think it decides which pages to show.
Well, today I came across a LinkedIn post from Aleyda Solis, a well-known SEO expert, and it backed up what I’ve been noticing for a while now.
She said:
“Traditional SEO still matters for AI search engines: The higher a website ranks in the top 10, the more likely it is to show up in AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity.”
Here’s the link to the AI research Aleyda mentions in her post if you want to check it out.

Here’s what it means
If your pages rank in the top 10 organic search results, they’re more likely to show up in AI search results, too. 🤖
I’ve noticed it a long time ago since some of my top-performing pages, like AI SEO tools and beehiiv review, have started to show up more in AI search results.
Below, you can see the screenshot from my Google Analytics over the past 12 months showing the traffic coming from ChatGPT. It isn't significant... but it’s growing steadily. 📈

This proves one thing: The basics of SEO still work, no matter what the internet buzz says.
Build your brand. 🧱
Create content people actually want to read. ✍️
Stay consistent.
That’s it.
I’ve been doing this for years, and it works. 🙌
Big thanks to Aleyda Solís for sharing this AI study. Hopefully, more folks will focus on what really matters in SEO:
Quality > Quantity 💥

In 110 pages, I walk you through everything that’s worked for me — from writing front-page content to doing SEO that still works in the age of AI. 💻✨

What’s latest on my website?
I’ve been creating new content from my old posts using AI SEO tools. 🤖✨
This latest piece below took me about 6 hours from start to finish — writing, optimizing, and hitting publish.
I reused an older post about Ahrefs alternatives to save time, but I still had to spend a while comparing the data from different tools. That part took a bit longer than I expected.
It’s only been live for a few days, but it's already starting to show good signs. 📈

The secret? My site follows Google’s E-E-A-T guidelines (basically, showing I know my stuff and can be trusted). 🔍✅
I don’t even focus on building backlinks… and still, my web pages hit the first page. Why? Because my site has solid authority and trust.
Curious how to do the same? I break it all down in my SEO ebook. 📘👇
