The DigiMarcon Keynote That’s Sparking a Marketing Revolution
When Zhe Scott, the visionary Founder, Publisher, and Editor-in-Chief of The SEO Queen, took the stage at DigiMarcon Great Lakes, she didn’t just present—she ignited. Her talk, “From Invisible to Iconic: The AI SEO Strategy Google Can’t Ignore,” was a masterclass in modern dominance. Within minutes, the room was a sea of raised phones—every slide was a screenshot-worthy revelation.
Here’s why this presentation is already going viral.
The Jaw-Dropping Stat That Changed Everything
Scott opened with a truth bomb:
*“62% of clicks now go to non-traditional results—images, videos, maps, and news. If you’re only optimizing for blog rankings, you’re invisible to most of your audience.”*
The crowd erupted. This wasn’t just theory—it was a wake-up call backed by data:
- 50% of Gen Z starts searches on TikTok/YouTube
- Pages with embedded video get 3x longer dwell time
- Google now indexes Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Reddit posts
“SEO isn’t dead,” Scott declared. “But the rules have changed. Are you playing to win—or to disappear?”

Scott’s “Quantum SEO Method” is a blueprint for total search domination. Here’s the breakdown that’s flooding LinkedIn feeds:
1. Answer the Unasked Questions (The “Curiosity Gap” Hack)
- Tools: AnswerThePublic + DeepSeek + Google Trends
- Tactic: Target informational queries (e.g., “Why does [problem] happen?”) alongside transactional keywords.

“Don’t chase clicks—solve real problems. Google rewards helpfulness, not just relevance.”
2. AI-Powered Multi-Format Content: Create Once, Dominate Everywhere

“If it’s not being shared, Google doesn’t fully trust it.”
6. Hyper-Local + Culturally Relevant = Unbeatable
