How do enterprise SEO, visual search, and AI really fit together?

In this episode of The Search Session, host Gianluca Fiorelli is joined by Roxana Stingu for a conversation that goes beyond traditional SEO and into the intersection of engineering, product thinking, business strategy, and user behavior.

They explore why AI search isn't as new as it seems, how internal site search can uncover valuable SEO insights, what changes when managing crawl and internal linking at enterprise scale, and why image and visual search are becoming increasingly important for visibility and conversions. The discussion also covers multimodal search, automation, and the role SEO communities play in helping professionals learn, grow, and build confidence throughout their careers.

Whether you're working on enterprise websites, technical SEO, or preparing for the future of AI-powered search, this episode offers practical insights into how modern search really works at scale.
