The approach

AI does the heavy analysis. People decide what gets published, fixed and prioritised.

The two-prong approach from The 10 Most Important Factors for Ranking Your Website.

See the six-part model


  1. Diagnose with evidence

    Audit analytics, search demand and customer questions. Keep what you observed apart from what you assumed.


  2. Build reviewed workflows

    Decide what AI drafts, what a specialist checks and which calls are never automated.


  3. Measure against a baseline

    Judge the work on qualified leads and revenue, not on how much content went out.

The books

Eight books, four shelves.

Search and business, AI marketing, a family memoir and a science fiction trilogy.

Cover of The Godfather of AI Marketing: How I Ranked Businesses Worldwide and How You Can Too by Zack Mozes

NewestApril 7, 202664 pages

The Godfather of AI Marketing

How Zack applies AI tools, search strategy and measurement to client work, and how readers can use the same approach on their own sites.

The title borrows a media nickname that has followed Zack in press coverage. It is branding, not a ranking, and the book reads best as a practitioner’s account of his methods.
