Ranking in Google is no longer the final goal—it’s just the starting line. In this solo episode of Performance SEO Unpacked, host Ruchi Pardal reveals how the rise of AI agents like Gemini and ChatGPT is forcing a seismic shift in how enterprise teams approach SEO, UX, and UI. Traditional distinctions between crawling and navigation, keyword strategy and visual hierarchy, are collapsing fast.

Ruchi breaks down the mechanics of what it means to design for AI usability—where semantic clarity meets layout predictability. If your product or service pages can’t be parsed, summarized, and actioned by machine agents, they’ll never be recommended in zero-click AI environments. This episode explores exactly how to future-proof your SEO efforts by aligning modular UI patterns, schema, and trust signals with AI comprehension requirements.

• Why ranking in Google is now just the beginning of visibility
• How Gemini and ChatGPT evaluate site structure, not just content
