I write lots of depressing stories about the fate of media companies. Let's switch it up: Did you hear the one about the publisher who figured out how to find tens of thousands of new, paying subscribers?

I wanted to go to the Solana Accelerate conference as soon as I saw the trailer for the crypto confab.

So when stand-alone ESPN comes along, you drop your cable subscription and move to ESPN's $30-a-month plan. Both of these scenarios are good for ESPN owner Disney.

SEO, or search engine optimization, is the art and science of crafting websites and other online content so it shows up prominently when people Google something. A massive industry of experts, advisors, gurus (and charlatans) has grown up around the interplay between Google, which purposely sets opaque rules, and website owners tweaking stuff and trying to work the system. The rise of generative AI, large language models, and AI chatbots is changing all this — radically and quickly.
