James will unpack how search is evolving and what creators, developers, and business owners can do to stay visible in 2026 and beyond.

How to optimize for AI-powered discovery tools and chat-based search
“SEO isn’t dying — it’s evolving,” says James. “If you understand how AI changes the game, you can stay ahead of the curve instead of chasing it.”

Beyond WordPress, James has led marketing teams for successful startups, built online businesses, and even ran one of the world’s best internet radio stations .
