SEO in 2026: How Photographers Actually Get Found Now

Remember the SEO advice floating around a few years ago? Yeah, most of it doesn't hold up in 2026, and if Instagram is your only plan for getting found, we need to talk. In this episode I'm walking you through how search actually works now, including the kind of wild fact that your public Instagram posts can show up on Google as of last summer. We'll get into Google's new AI search results, what to put on your website and blog so the right clients find you, and where Pinterest and your Google Business Profile fit into all of it. None of it is complicated or techy, I promise, just real stuff you can start doing this week to stop feeling invisible online. ⸻ SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS Use MPB to buy & sell used photography gear: https://bit.ly/MPB-Oh-Shoot Get 15% off Aftershoot ️ https://aftershoot.com/friends?ref=cassidy Get 50% off Honeybook ️ http://share.honeybook.com/cassidylynne Get 15% off Spider Holster code CASSIDY26: https://spiderholster.com/CASSIDY26 ⸻ FOLLOW & LISTEN TO OH SHOOT!
