No Hacks: Web Strategy for the AI Age
Your next million website visitors won't be human. Are you ready?
And most websites are completely unprepared. AI agents can't navigate them. LLMs don't cite them. Search engines no longer rank them the same way.
No Hacks is the podcast for SEO, CRO, and web professionals navigating this shift. Each week we explore what breaks, what works, and what to do about it before it becomes impossible to ignore.
Hosted by Slobodan Manic, consultant and speaker on Agent Experience Optimisation (AXO).
