What AI search actually rewards (and why your blog fire hose fails)
When was the last time you clicked through two pages of Google results? Most of us do not. We ask ChatGPT or Claude because it is faster. That habit change is the point of this piece.
The Reason Your LinkedIn Isn't Growing Has Nothing to Do With Your Content
Most founders treat LinkedIn like a résumé with a comment section. They post when they get a chance. They write about their wins and about themselves. They share the company update nobody asked for and then they wonder why nobody engages and quietly decide LinkedIn doesn't work for them.
