AIO is shaking up SEO and the old playbook won’t survive. Traditional rankings are giving way to AI-powered snapshots, zero-click answers, and a search landscape where visibility looks completely different.

In this session, we’ll explore what AIO means for SEO professionals, content creators, and WordPress site owners. You’ll learn how AI-driven results impact click-through rates, how brand authority and structured data become non-negotiable, and what strategies will future-proof your website.

We’ll also cover practical steps: optimizing for visibility, diversifying traffic sources beyond Google, and building brand signals that survive algorithm shifts.

WordPress developers are well familiar with Custom Post Types — a powerful feature, though not without its limitations. One of the modern alternatives gaining attention is the Custom Content Type (also known as Advanced Content Type).

In this talk, Łukasz Wilczak will clear up the confusion, share insights from real-world projects, and demonstrate the practical differences between CPTs and CCTs.

As a bonus, you’ll see data-driven results from hands-on experiments answering the key question: Is it really worth switching to CCT?
