What is Julian Goldie SEO?

It started as a name and turned into a brand. Julian Goldie SEO is the handle he uses on YouTube, X and LinkedIn, and it is the name most people know him by. Under it sits a channel, an agency, a book and a set of communities.

The YouTube channel is the front door. It has more than 430,000 subscribers and new videos go up daily. Early on it was mostly link building and classic SEO. Now it is mostly AI: Hermes Agent, Claude Code, AI agents and AI SEO, with SEO still running through all of it.

There is a second channel too, AI News Today, also known as the Julian Goldie Podcast, which covers AI news as it lands.

10+ years of SEO, starting with links

Julian's background is link building. He has spent more than 10 years doing SEO, and links have always been the core of it. That is still the thing Goldie Agency is best known for.

A big part of his early track record came from Upwork. By his own numbers he holds a 100% job success score there, with more than 240 clients and more than 200 five-star reviews. For a freelancer that is a long run of client work without a bad mark, and it is how a lot of agencies first started buying links from him.

He also wrote SEO Link Building Mastery, a best-selling book on link building. He gives it away instead of selling it. You can grab the free link building book and see how he thinks about outreach, relevance and building links that last.

Goldie Agency services

Goldie Agency is Julian's SEO and link-building agency, self-described as 7-figure. It works remote-first, and every project is custom-quoted, so you won't find a price list. Here is what it actually does.

Link building

This is the core. The agency builds links on relevant sites to help pages earn authority and rank. The focus is on links a real editor would place, not mass-produced junk.

White-label link building

Other SEO agencies use Goldie Agency to fulfil links for their own clients under their own brand. If you run an agency and links are the bottleneck, this is the service built for you.

AI-first SEO and AI-answer visibility

Search has changed. People now get answers from ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews before they ever click a result. Goldie Agency pairs link building with AI-first SEO: content built to rank, plus work aimed at getting your brand cited in AI answers. Links still matter here, because the sites AI tools trust tend to be the sites the rest of the web points at.

For a closer look at the agency on its own, read the Goldie Agency page. If you are comparing different people to hire, our list of the best SEO expert picks lays out the options.

How Julian teaches AI SEO now

The old way of doing SEO was manual. You found keywords by hand, wrote briefs by hand, pitched sites one email at a time, and checked rankings in a spreadsheet. It worked, but it was slow and it didn't scale.

The way Julian teaches now is agent-first. You give an AI agent a skill, a playbook for a job like keyword research or outreach, and it does the repetitive work while you check the output. He uses tools like Claude Code and Hermes Agent for this, and he shows the whole thing on screen so you can copy it.

He also runs this inside his own system, Agent OS, which brings agents, memory, skills, tools and a dashboard together in one place. It is only available inside the AI Profit Boardroom. The Agent OS guide explains how it fits together.

Before he recommends a model, he tests it. His benchmark, Goldie Bench, scores AI models on real agent tasks rather than quiz questions. That way the advice comes from what actually works, not from launch-day hype.

If you want a head start, his 200+ free AI SEO prompts are a simple place to begin. Paste one into your AI tool and see the difference.

Why links still matter in AI search

A lot of people assume AI killed link building. Julian's take is the opposite. AI tools still need to decide which sources to trust, and the sites they lean on tend to be the ones the rest of the web already points at.

So the job hasn't gone away. It has widened. You still want relevant links from real sites, you still want content worth citing, and now you also want your brand showing up when someone asks ChatGPT or Gemini a question in your niche.

That is why his teaching mixes the two. Classic link building for authority, AI agents to speed up the research and outreach, and a human checking every site before a link goes live. Speed from the agents, judgment from the people.

SEO Elite Circle

For people who live in SEO, Julian runs SEO Elite Circle, an SEO mastermind community at $97/mo. It is aimed at SEOs and agency owners who want to be around others doing the same work and talk through what is ranking now.

It sits alongside his other communities. Across all of them he reports more than 75,000 members combined. For the full list of everything he runs, with a comparison table, see the main Julian Goldie page.

How to work with Julian

There are three ways in, and they suit different people.

1. The agency: done for you

Pick this if you want results without doing the work yourself. Goldie Agency handles link building, white-label links and AI-first SEO. Every project is custom-quoted, and the first step is a call. Book a free SEO strategy session and you will come away knowing what your site needs next, whether you hire the agency or not.

2. The community: done with you

Pick this if you want to learn to run AI agents yourself. The AI Profit Boardroom is the main one. It has more than 3,400 members, 4 live coaching calls a week, daily Q&A, full courses on Hermes Agent, Claude Code and more, and the Agent OS zip. It costs $69/mo, with a 7-day refund and a 30-day ROI guarantee, and holds 4.9 out of 5 from 114 member reviews on Skool.

3. Free resources: do it yourself

Pick this if you are just starting or want to test his approach first. Watch the YouTube channel, grab the free book and the prompts, and join AI Money Lab, his free community with a free AI course and 1,000 AI agents.

Most people start free, then move up when they want coaching or help with the actual work. That is fine. There is no rush.

Who Julian Goldie SEO is a good fit for

It is not a fit if you want guaranteed rankings by a certain date. No honest SEO can promise that, and Julian doesn't.
