The State of SEO After Google I/O 2025 (What Bloggers Need to Know)

I watched the entire Google I/O 2025 so you don't have to! And I'm not just going to tell you what they said. I'm going to tell you what it actually means to us as bloggers and online business owners. We'll get into the changes to Gemini, the redesign of Google Search with AI Mode, and the massive shift that could kill affiliates entirely... unless you pivot your strategy. I'll also talk about how this relates to other industry changes with AI, zero click searches, and multimodal online presences.It's a long one, but it's action packed! Plus my service dog pops up to hang and offer some emotional support during all this change.If you prefer to listen to this, get the She Knows SEO podcast and download it on whatever your podcast app of choice is:https://app.helloaudio.fm/feed/8a3a6814-7cf6-4c54-8065-1da0a1944997/signup 🔨 Sources I used/referenced:Top ways to ensure your content performs well in Google's AI experiences on Search: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2025/05/succeeding-in-ai-search How to Rank for ChatGPT Search: https://sheknowsseo.co/chatgpt-search-traffic/ Cloudflare CEO zero click searches: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQf-eB2xSewAI features and your website: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/ai-featuresAI Overviews and your website: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/ai-overviewsGoogle Search's guidance on using generative AI content on your website: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/fundamentals/using-gen-ai-content Schema how to email: https://ck.sheknowsseo.co/posts/i-wish-i-d-learned-this-seo-hack-sooner Rank Math: https://sheknowsseo.co/recommends/rankmath [aff] Kadence: https://sheknowsseo.co/recommends/kadence [aff]Backlink Strategy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTkLi5-UKZcTomiko Harvey Article: https://tomikoharvey.com/google-creator-summit-review/-------------------------------------------🎥 Watch Next:How to Rank YouTube Videos on Google & YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yewWGo03L6oIf I started from scratch with SEO in 2025, I'd do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyNxajDkWq0-------------------------------------------👍 If you liked this video, please like and subscribe: https://youtube.com/@sheknowsseo 🔥 Get my FREE Content Audit Checklist for SEO: https://sheknowsseo.co/youtube 🏆 Check out all my freebies and courses here: https://sheknowsseo.co/everythingWould you like to deliver your own private podcast feed to your audience?
