SEO’s reputation took a hit due to AI overviews and changing search landscapes.
Despite challenges, SEO remains a vital part of a holistic marketing strategy.

Notable Advice for Aspiring Entrepreneurs

George encourages entrepreneurs to think carefully before starting agencies: “If you’re set on it, learn the ropes at a top company first.”
