Why I've Given Up on SEO

Is SEO actually dead this time, or are we just watching it slowly lose relevance? In this episode, I'll share why I officially stopped investing in SEO after building multiple businesses on it for over a decade. You'll learn what's changed in the search landscape, why organic traffic is declining for even experienced operators, and how crowded search results have made it harder than ever to win meaningful traffic. I also break down real data from seven- and eight-figure store owners, showing where traffic is actually coming from today and what channels are outperforming SEO. Listen in to hear where to focus now and how to rethink long-term growth strategies in a world where attention is shifting away from traditional search.
