Josh Greene
CEO at The Mather Group - Fixing Online Reputation via SEO and Wikipedia
Welcome to 2024. Gartner's out with their top strategic predictions.?It's no surprise that AI features in at least half.
Gartner also has marketing predictions for 2024.?I was fascinated by the authenticity prediction (pull quote below). We're starting to see this as clients start to contend with the impact of AI enhanced trolling, fake stories, etc. on their reputations.???
By 2026, 60% of CMOs will adopt measures such as content authenticity technology, enhanced monitoring, and brand-endorsed user-generated content to protect their brands from widespread deception unleashed by GenAI.
Moz has an excellent roundup of 2024 SEO predictions.?In addition to many AI viewpoints, there's an expectation that?EEAT?(Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness)?will become even more important.?
?
I'll be coming out with the 4th edition of Wikipedia for Business?on January 24th.?The process changes a bit each year, and I'll be sharing some of the plans along the way.?Right now, we're focused on final editing, planning for the?launch event, and social media posts around the cover release next week.? ?

Oh, there's a river that winds on forever
I'm gonna see where it leads
Oh, there's a mountain that no man has mounted
I'm gonna stand on the peak
Out there's a land that time don't command
Wanna be the first to arrive
No time for ponderin' why I'm a-wanderin'
Not while we're both still alive
To the ends of the earth would you follow me?
There's a world that was meant for our eyes to see
To the ends of the earth would you follow me?
If you won't I must say my goodbyes to thee
'm leaving this place behind
And I'm heading out on the road tonight
I'm off for the hinterlands
Way up north where the tall trees stand
Before I commence my ride
I'm asking Lily to be my bride
I know there's another man
But he ain't gonna delay my plans
I know she's gonna be my wife
Gonna fall in love I'm gonna live my life with her
You know I bet he's not so tough
Ain't afraid of him cause I'm a fool for love
Here by the lake, what a vision you are

In the light of the emerald star
I've come for you, my love
Through a window in the dark
Don't you know you're my everything?
If I lost you, I think I would die
Was everything you said just a lie?
You never loved me
I came all the way through time and space
To take you away and out of this place
With the moonlight in your eyes
You're the brightest star in all of the sky
I'll cry and I'll cry if your light ever dies
Oh, what a jewel are you
And, oh, what a fool am I
For squandering my love
On an emerald in the sky
Way out here in the void
Is the loneliest place to die
When everything you loved is a lie
I'm just a man, but I know that I'm damned
All the dead seem to know where I am
The tale that began on the night of my birth
Will be done in a turn of the earth
Lie where I land let my bones turn to sand
I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave it
Every eye on the coast ever more
Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore
Under the waves and the earth of an age
Lie a thousand old northerners' graves
Deep in the night when the moon's glowing bright
They come rising up into the night
I'm a long way from the one that I loved
I've been tending old flames, lamenting what was
Drifting in a land time forgot
If you think that I've changed, you know me not
I belong bodily to the earth
I'm just wearing old bones from those that came first
I been unraveling since my birth
Gonna wander out there and see what I'm worth
Find me way out there
there's no road that will lead us back
When you follow the strange trails
they will take you who knows where
If I found a way to stay with you tonight
it would only make me late, for a date I can't escape
