Check the Calendar, We are having the Members' Office Hours today 11am PST 2PM EST Looking forward to seeing you all there .... Todays Office Hours could run long... I want to cover - What's been changing - How we must adapt - Go through understanding RAO (an emerging, post-SEO strategy designed for the AI-driven search era, focusing on structuring, optimizing, and positioning content so that it is easily discoverable, retrievable, and utilized by Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI agents) and how we are looking at incorporating it into the processes we have been teaching - Help you outline a YOU-EVERYWHERE marketing mindset. The reality is that the web and digital marketing are growing, and WE have to grow with it. SEO isn't dead or dying, its changing as it ages... It's going from TODDLER to ADOLESCENT. Adulthood is where its the same as MARKETING, and its getting there fast. Looking forward to seeing you all there

Hi everyone, Just logged into my Cloudflare account (after a very long time away from it) to add a new client's site. I'm seeing a new setting regarding AI crawlers in the robots.txt file. (see attached) I'm trying to get a consensus opinion on the pros and cons of at least some blocking (full or partial) AI crawlers, for (in this case) a local contractor site. Thanks

Good Morning @Mike Clay, I made the mistake of running a topical map and content brief creation with Claude sonnet 4.5. I really like some of the MECE detail it runs with but comes back with over 90 questions for each brief. Thinking most are better suited for blogs Reran the topical map and content briefs with "Best" chosen and it seems thinner than previous run content briefs on older perplexity versions. Do you have a favorite model to run these prompts through.

Good Morning @Mike Clay - with your GPT's specifically, does it matter at all what model we use when working with them.
