In this episode, I’m joined by SEO experts Yordan Dimitrov, Nikki Halliwell, Mark Williams-Cook, and Dave Cousin to explore some of the biggest questions in the world of digital marketing right now.

We dig into the real challenges SEOs face today - from conflicting advice and overhyped strategies to the value (or not) of backlinks and SEO tools in 2025.

We also discussed -

- What SEO advice is still worth following - and what should we ignore?

- Is SEO becoming overpriced or misunderstood by clients and businesses?

- What role will websites actually play in the next 3 - 4 years?

It’s a mix of straight-talking insights, industry experience, and a look ahead at where digital marketing is going. I really enjoyed recording this one - big thanks again to my fantastic guests for sharing their time and insights.
