https://page2pod.com - In this episode of the Page 2 Podcast, Jon Clark and Joe DeVita sit down with Everett Sizemore, a 15-year SEO veteran and fractional SEO director at eSizemore Consulting, to unpack how brands can create clearer, more structured content for search engines, answer engines, and AI-generated results.

Everett explains why semantic triples — simple subject-predicate-object relationships — are becoming increasingly important for helping machines understand what a brand is, what it does, and how its key entities connect. The conversation explores why many SaaS companies struggle to describe themselves consistently, how unclear language creates confusion across search and AI systems, and why “cutting the fluff” is more than just a writing preference — it is an SEO strategy.

The episode also covers practical SEO tactics including content pruning, building content inventories, using tools like Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and Ahrefs, and revisiting foundational assets like FAQs, persona pages, and HTML sitemaps.
