Search works best as a connected growth system, not a set of isolated tactics.

I'm Christian Goodrich, a senior search marketing specialist with 18+ years of experience across SEO, paid search, CRO and AI-driven search. I'm Head of SEO & AI Search at SOZO, a B Corp certified digital agency in Cheltenham. I've spent my career working at the intersection of strategy and delivery, helping ambitious brands get more commercial value from their search presence.

I write about what I see working in practice: the shifts in how people search, how AI search optimisation (often called generative engine optimisation, or GEO) is changing visibility, and how brands can build search strategies that hold up commercially.

Get ready well ahead of 27 November

These two cover it from both ends: how search and AI now decide who gets shortlisted, and the CRO and paid search execution I shared at brightonSEO, which comes with a free Black Friday planning framework you can copy and use.
