    And now that we have AI, is SEO worth it? (In English)

    You probably heard that "SEO is complicated" and "always changing." And now that we have AI, is it even worth it?

    While there's a grain of truth to that, much of SEO, particularly technical SEO, is far less complex than it's made out to be. And AI-based search engines only summarize results, but they they start by searching as always.

    So SEO is and still will be a thing for the years to come!

    But having spent several years working with Joomla websites, there are SEO mistakes that I see again and again that are both very detrimental and often surprisingly easy to fix.

    While some of these issues can occur on any website, the majority are specific to Joomla.

    And don't you worry, once you have avoided the errors, I'll also have a couple of tips for you!

    Create and Sell Training with Complete Freedom
