Nathan Gotch announces September 22 launch of AI SEO for Dummies.

Nathan Gotch announces September 22 launch of AI SEO for Dummies. Sep 14, 2026 A free live webinar on September 22 will walk business owners, agencies and marketing teams through Nathan Gotch's Optimize, Create and Distribute process. St. Louis, Missouri, September 15, 2026 - Nathan Gotch has announced the September 22, 2026 launch of AI SEO for Dummies, published by Wiley, alongside a live online training session for business owners, marketing teams and agencies seeking a practical approach to AI search visibility. The webinar, titled AI SEO for Dummies: How to Get AI to Recommend Your Business, is set for Tuesday, September 22, 2026, at 9 a.m. Central Daylight Time (10 a.m. Eastern), as a two-hour live session on Zoom. Attendance does not require purchase of the book or a Rankability subscription. Registration is open through Gotch's website, where free webinar registration is available to interested businesses and agencies ahead of the session. AI SEO for Dummies introduces readers to AI SEO, covering initial planning, measurement, website readiness, content development and credibility across the web. During the webinar, Gotch applies his three-part Optimize, Create and Distribute framework to a real business example, walking attendees through each stage in sequence so the concepts can be followed alongside a working case. The Optimize phase moves through benchmarking, an audit of brand consistency, reputation, sentiment, the website and owned assets, followed by research and improvement based on the findings of that audit. This stage is intended to establish where a business currently stands before any new content or distribution work begins. The Create phase covers brand content, commercial pages, comparison content, video, content placed on established third-party platforms, and short-form content. Together these formats are presented as the material AI systems and search engines draw on when forming responses about a business. The Distribute phase addresses owned channels, reviews, user-generated content and earned coverage, rounding out the framework with the distribution work needed to support visibility once content has been created. The material is designed for agencies updating their AI search systems, businesses with in-house marketing teams, and business owners assessing what work their companies need as customers increasingly turn to both search engines and AI-powered answers to research companies and services. Further AI SEO for Dummies book details and retailer options are available through Gotch's website, where individual retailers set pricing, shipping and format availability. About Nathan Gotch Nathan Gotch is the co-founder and CEO of Rankability and the author of The SEO Entrepreneur and AI SEO for Dummies. His work focuses on helping businesses improve how they are found through search.

Khalifa University faculty's new book bridges solar cell physics and practical engineering design.

Khalifa University faculty's new book bridges solar cell physics and practical engineering design. 14-Sep-2026 ABU DHABI - A new book titled Introduction to Solar Cells, co-authored by Khalifa University's Dr. Ammar Nayfeh, Associate Professor, Electrical Engineering, and Dr. Sabina Abdul Hadi, Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering at the University of Dubai was published by Wiley in July 2026 to provide students, researchers and engineers with an accessible guide to modern photovoltaic technologies, according to the official website of the University. The 240-page textbook explains the scientific, physics and engineering principles needed to understand solar energy conversion and develop efficient, affordable photovoltaic systems. It takes readers from renewable-energy fundamentals and the physics of light to semiconductor operation, pn junctions, and solar cell design. Introduction to Solar Cells is available through Wiley under ISBN 978-1-394-19741-5. Combining conceptual explanations with mathematical analysis and practical engineering insights, the book includes worked examples, chapter summaries, and end-of-chapter problems. It also explores emerging photovoltaic technologies, thin-film materials, nanotechnology, efficiency-enhancement methods, and advanced characterization techniques. Designed primarily for junior and senior undergraduate students, Introduction to Solar Cells also serves as a reference for graduate students, researchers, educators, and engineers working in photovoltaics, materials science, and renewable energy. Dr. Nayfeh also serves as Electronics Lead at the Research and Innovation Center for Graphene and 2D Materials (RIC2D). His research focuses on nanotechnology, semiconductor devices, two-dimensional materials, and next-generation photovoltaic systems, with particular emphasis on developing efficient and cost-effective solar-energy technologies. He has authored or co-authored over 150 publications, holds four patents, and three edited books. He is a senior member of IEEE, MRS and Stanford Alumni Association. He received the Material Research Society Graduate Student Award, the Robert C. Maclinche Scholarship at UIUC, and Stanford Graduate Fellowship. Dr. Nayfeh said: "The publication reflects Khalifa University's commitment to advancing clean-energy research and equipping future engineers and scientists with the knowledge needed to support the global transition to sustainable energy.
