Worried that everything online is starting to sound the same because of AI?
We have Maria-Katarina Johannesson, better known as Links & Maria, on ep 339 of The Content Queen Podcast to talk about why the future of content isn't less AI, it's more human, and how to actually find that balance.
Maria-Katarina specialises in link building and digital PR, helping businesses show up on both Google and AI search, always with a people-first approach.
If you've ever felt overwhelmed trying to keep up with AI, questioned whether something "sounds too AI", or wondered how to stay authentic while still optimising for search, this episode is for you.
