The "Man Who Killed Google Search" Gets Replaced!

A few months ago, there was an "expose" on a man that many have claimed "killed Google search".

As the Head of Search, he took Google from a beautiful organic experience to a model ripe with ads, worse results, and AI overview missteps.

This man has just been replaced after significant outcry from users, influencers, and others.

The full story is below and is today's main subject of the podcast.

But first, I wanted to give you a heads up on something that is a bit more urgent...

You see, no matter how much Google has changed over the years, links have always been at the core of rankings.

Higher quality links almost always leads to higher rankings.

So, if you've struggled with link building lately, you're not alone.

Yet links are still one of the main ways search engines rank websites.

The harsh truth is that costs are soaring, and it's getting harder to make SEO profitable.

But what if I told you there's a way to:

  • Slash your Link Building costs by up to 90%
  • Get links from the likes of Forbes, Fortune, and Entrepreneur
  • All without paying them a penny


Sounds too good to be true? That's what I thought, too.

Until I saw what the guys at Authority Hacker have been working on over the past 2 years

They managed to:

  • Build 2,000+ high-quality links from just $8 per link
  • Get consistent Digital PR links for just $130 a pop (vs. the usual $500+ agencies charge)
  • Do all of this with just one single Link Builder on the payroll

We aren’t talking shady tactics like PBNs, either. Just look at some of the links they’ve built this past year…

And the best part? You can do this too.

They’re teaching all of this in the Link Builder Academy, including:

  • The exact model for running high-profit, low-stress link building campaigns
  • Over 110 videos covering 10 unique tactics for every business and budget
  • Exclusive bonuses like Live Q&As with the course creators, custom-built GPT bots, and huge swipe files, all designed to drive both your Link Cost and Labor Costs down even further

But how much can this course save you on links? Well, they crunched the numbers based on hundreds of real-life successful campaigns:

And this only scratches the surface of what’s inside.
