-
How to prepare for an SEO conference, and why conferences are more important than ever
-
How to convince your boss that sending you to an SEO conference is good for your business

The Evolution of Content & the Future of Our Industry
Is it all over? Is the world as we knew it a wrap? With the rise of AI — is it realistic to assume that the world of SEO and content will stay the same? Or should we all start dusting off our resumes to try something new? In this presentation, Ross shares a blend of both the realities of how AI can be incorporated into our work (maybe to give us additional runway) and answers the question as to whether or not AI is actually coming for our jobs. Ross shares what we can do to ensure that we're ahead of the curve when it comes to using these tools, embracing the technology, and finding edges amidst rapid change.
