Less than a decade ago, SEO was the VIP ticket to website traffic, email subscriptions, and sales. Global company or burgeoning brand, search engine optimization gave you the coveted digital edge of landing above the fold. The past few years, however, have launched an entirely new form of online optimization, and the driving force is artificial intelligence.

Like most new technologies, AI optimization has quickly risen to trend-setting levels of popularity. Every blog recommends it, every expert heralds it as the future of digital marketing \u2014 but without a deep understanding of how AI search optimization works, how it compares to search engine optimization, and which option yields the best results, AI optimization is little more than a buzzword.
