Agentic Engine Optimization: Why Your Content Strategy Needs Both Human and AI Readers in 2026
Google’s AI director reveals token limits and front-loading strategies. Learn how to optimize content for both human engagement and AI agent parsing…
Last month we asked our members and readers what sites they use to keep their marketing knowledge up to date.
Respondents were worldwide, many from the UK, US, Canada and Poland, but also extending into the APAC and EMEA areas too.
It's no surprise that our own blog outweighed others in popularity - as voters were coming through our blog content to vote.
However, the second and third most popular marketing blogs to read were Econsultancy and Harvard Business Review. The blogs provide all levels of marketers, from CEO's to Executives, marketing knowledge and updates in all industries.
We also wanted to know any other sites that we didn't feature that are also great sources of knowledge. 'Other' examples include:
Also popular were software or SaaS company blogs, such as Moz, HubSpot, Pardot, Marketo, and Sumo.
Our next poll is about being GDPR ready and the Smart Insights team would really appreciate it if you would like to contribute your companies readiness for GDPR which comes into force in May 2018 . Please take the poll below:
