SEO focused A/B Testing or Split-Testing is fast becoming an important new technique for digital marketers. This deck explains why it is important, and how you can do it.
3 New Techniques for the Modern Age of SEOTom Anthony
Tom talks about three areas that will effect SEO over the coming months and years. SEO split-testing is something that is immediately actionable for most SEOs. Machine Learning is something SEOs shouldn't learn, but should understand enough so they can leverage ML based platforms. Finally, Hub & Spoke business and technology architectures will mean SEOs may want to start thinking about optimisations being an input or output method, so they can apply previous learnings to new technology channels.

Mobile is becoming an increasingly important traffic channel, and given recent developments like app indexation and AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages), as well as the addition of new types of devices like wearables and smart tech, understanding how it fits into the bigger search marketing picture is more crucial than ever. This session will take a look at the history of mobile search, how mobile search behaviour has impacted on desktop search, the growing significance of app content and developments such as AMP and app streaming within the search marketing landscape, and some thoughts on where the future of search is heading.

Google is a black box, and for almost 20 years SEOs have run experiments and tested ideas trying to understand what makes the search engine tick. Until recently, it's been really hard to run robust tests that isolate the effects of SEO changes. At Distilled, we have been using new tools and statistical approaches to run split-tests. In this session, Tom is going to talk about how you can run your own A/B tests, some of the experiments we've run and the results we've seen, and share some thoughts about the future of SEO testing.

In the SEO industry, we obsess on everything Google says, from John Mueller dropping a hint in a Webmaster Hangout, to the ranking data we spend £1000s to gather. Yet we ignore the data Google throws at us every day, the crawling data. For the longest time, site crawls, traffic data, and rankings have been the pillars of SEO data gathering. Log files should join them as something everyone is doing. We'll go through how to get everything set-up, look at some of the tools to make it easy and repeatable and go through the kinds of analysis you can do to get insights from the data.

19 Lessons I learned from a year of SEO split testingDominic Woodman

That's everything from: What sort of effect do basic SEO changes? Why is changing your title tags possibly a really risky move? How and when has structured data helped? How important is freshness (and can you fake it)? Does testing change your relationship with a client? Should you put emoji's in everything...

Will is going to discuss the ways that Distilled believes search is fundamentally changing, including compound queries, implicit search signals, user signals as a ranking factor, the move from keywords to intents, and the drive towards data-driven search.
Using a data-driven split-testing (A/B testing) methodology for SEO is a huge opportunity to make considerable (and measurable) improvements in organic search performance. It is a viable and achievable option for most teams.

I outline 5 key changes in technologies and trends which are changing the landscape of search. Some of these trends are here now, but some are trends which will emerge in the next 12-24 months.
SEO has always sat at the intersection between being a science and an art. We all love to try out new ideas and try to understand what makes the search engines tick, but it can be frustrating to have to cut through the guesswork and speculation just to figure out what Google really wants from us. Even worse, we still find ourselves making SEO changes, seeing uplifts, but then not knowing which changes actually had any impact.
Fortunately, new software and better technologies now make it possible to run proper SEO-focused tests and, for the first time, actually measure the impact that each SEO change has on our site. Rob will share these techniques, discuss some of the experiments that Distilled has been running, reveal the unexpected things they’ve learned along the way, and share how you can start running experiments yourself.

If you asked a UX professional whether users prefer one image or two on a blog post, they'd tell you to test it — trying to double guess users is foolish.

Last year I changed role and got the chance to treat SEO differently, running over 50 tests across different websites.
