Build an AI-Overview-proof traffic system in a week

Use the 3 Performance Max controls Google quietly returned
Performance Max used to be a black box. In 2026 you can see search terms, block placements account-wide, and add negatives. Set up all three this week.

Set up email authentication that lands in 2026, step by step

The move. Build SPF, DKIM and DMARC on your sending domain, add one-click unsubscribe, and keep spam complaints under 0.1%. Without the first three, bulk mail now bounces outright.

AI answers eat generic search. The one traffic it cannot take is people looking for you by name. Build that demand in a week, step by step, on a small budget.
The move. Build demand for your name, not just your category. A branded search you own, a clean first screen, and a review habit are the traffic AI cannot answer for you.
