Advanced SEO Program
SEO changed more in the last eighteen months than in the ten years before it. This is the course we built to keep up — self-paced and current as of August 2026, with a live track on AI Overviews, AEO, and agentic SEO layered on top. Five modules that are yours for life, a live orientation to kick things off, and three live 90-minute sessions where we get into entity SEO, answer engine optimization, and AI-driven technical audits together.
Four weeks. One system for Google, AI Overviews and LLMs.
We kick off live, you work through five modules whenever suits you, and then we come back together for three live sessions — each one ending in an open Q&A. Everything live gets recorded too, so nothing's lost if you can't make it.
Live orientation
We'll walk you through how the four weeks work, what to have ready, and this is where the cohort actually meets for the first time.
5 modules unlock
The recorded core — current as of August 2026 — and it's yours to keep.
3 live sessions + Q&A
AI Overviews Optimization, LLM Citation Engineering, Agentic SEO Automation — three sessions, each one closing with live Q&A, all recorded.
Live orientation
This is where everyone meets for the first time. We'll walk you through how the four weeks are structured, what's worth preparing before the modules go live, and how to actually get the most out of the sessions ahead — instead of just showing up and hoping for the best.
5 modules unlock
This is the recorded backbone of the program, current as of August 2026, and it stays yours for good. Covers Foundation, Technical SEO 2.0, Content & E-E-A-T, AEO & Structured Data, and AIO/GEO for LLMs — go at whatever pace actually fits your week.
3 live sessions + Q&A
Three real deep-dives, live: AI Overviews Optimization, LLM Citation Engineering, and Agentic SEO Automation. Every one ends with a proper Q&A, and every one is recorded, so if life gets in the way you're not missing anything.
Three things quietly rewrote search — and most SEOs haven't caught up
Zero-click search is just... normal now
Nearly 70% of Google searches end without anyone clicking through, and AI Overviews are already showing up in roughly one in five searches, climbing fast. Ranking #1 doesn't guarantee a visit anymore — it gets you a shot at being the thing the AI actually quotes.
The "answer" became the new search results page
Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot — they're not handing back ten blue links anymore, they're just answering. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the skill of writing so these systems can pull your content out cleanly and trust it enough to cite it.
LLMs turned into a discovery channel nobody's really auditing yet
GEO and AIO are about making sure ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude actually mention your brand when someone asks — and most businesses haven't looked at this channel at all.
Zero-click search is just... normal now
Close to 70% of Google searches now end with no click at all, and AI Overviews have gone from rare to showing up in around a fifth of queries. If you're still judging success purely by rank position — and not whether your content actually gets cited inside the answer — you're measuring the wrong thing.
The "answer" became the new search results page
Regular SEO gets you into the top 10. AEO is what gets a system like Google's AI Overview to lift a sentence straight off your page and hand it to the user as the answer. What earns that isn't keyword density — it's clarity about who you are, concise answer-first writing, and data these systems can actually verify.
LLMs turned into a discovery channel nobody's really auditing yet
GEO and AIO are maybe 80% strategy — how you're positioned, where you show up across the web, the authority you've actually earned — and only 20% technical fiddling. There's decent research on this now (Princeton ran a study on it) showing that pages with expert quotes, real statistics, and citations get pulled into AI answers noticeably more often. This is also the part of the stack that changes fastest, which is exactly why we teach it live instead of baking it into a recording that goes stale in six weeks.
The core is recorded. The frontier is live.
You won't sit through anything you could've just watched on your own time. The five foundational modules are self-paced and current as of August 2026. The live sessions are reserved for the stuff that's genuinely still moving — AI Overview behavior, LLM citation patterns, that kind of thing.
The recorded core

SEO, AEO, and what stays current
SEO gets your pages ranking in regular search results. AEO — Answer Engine Optimization — is about structuring your content so it becomes the direct, cited answer in featured snippets and AI Overviews. AIO, sometimes called GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), is the wider game of getting your brand actually mentioned and recommended inside AI chat answers, on things like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude.
Not at all. AEO and AIO sit on top of technical SEO, good content, and real earned authority — they add entity clarity and structured data on top, they don't replace any of it.
Honestly, no — it's built for people who've already run a live site or campaign and want a genuinely advanced, current system, not a first introduction to what SEO even is.
The five core modules are current as of August 2026. The live sessions cover the parts that move fastest — AI Overview behavior, how LLMs decide what to cite, agentic SEO tooling — which is exactly why those stay live instead of getting baked into a recording that goes stale in a few weeks.
