Скачать или смотреть Marie Haynes: Google Is Becoming an AI Agent (What That Means for SEO)

Marie Haynes is one of the most respected voices in SEO, Google algorithms, and AI search—and in this episode of Local Marketing Secrets, she breaks down how search is fundamentally changing.

Google is no longer just ranking pages. It’s learning from users, predicting satisfaction, and increasingly acting as an AI agent that chooses outcomes on behalf of searchers. Marie explains what’s really driving rankings today, why many websites were hit by recent Google updates, and how concepts like EEAT, user signals, NavBoost, and Helpful Content have been absorbed directly into Google’s core systems.

We dive deep into how Google uses AI and machine learning to evaluate trust, authority, and real-world usefulness—and why traditional SEO tactics like links and keyword optimization alone are no longer enough. Marie also shares rare insights from her conversations with Google, her experience studying algorithm updates for over a decade, and what businesses must do to stay visible as search shifts toward AI Mode, agents, and task-based results.

This episode is essential for SEO professionals, local business owners, marketers, and founders who want to understand where search is headed in 2025, 2026, and beyond—and how to adapt before competitors do.

How Google rankings really work in the AI era
EEAT explained: experience, expertise, authority, and trust
