Google is changing, and it can be tempting to hide your head in the sand. Here are 5 big changes, from HTTPS to voice search, and one specific action you can take today to address each one.
From AMP to voice search, Google's evolution seems to be accelerating. Recent changes signal some very real existential threats to SEO. How likely are these paradigm shifts, and what can we do today to mitigate the risks?
In our rush to rank, we put ourselves first, neglecting what searchers (and our future customers) want. Google wants to reward sites that deliver on searcher intent, and SERP features are a window into that intent. Find out how to map keywords to intent, understand how intent informs the buyer funnel, and deliver on the promise of ranking to drive results that attract clicks and customers.
Voice search is fast becoming part of our broader organic search ecosystem. Discover how organic data, including Featured Snippets, feed voice and represent new SEO opportunities.

21 Content Marketing Tools and Tactics by @staceycav at #TTLPresents - Septem...Stacey MacNaught
My presentation from #ttlpresents in Belfast in September 2016.
This deck goes through 21 content marketing tools and tactics our team at Tecmark uses to improve the efficiency and success in the areas of:
- Ideas generation for content marketing
- Data sourcing to support content projects
- Content distribution and promotion
Hope it's useful to some of you and if you have any questions at all, shoot me an email! Email address on the final slide.
From a place of curiosity (as opposed to judgement) you will explore your feelings, emotions, actions. We take some time to set the scene and still your mind and inner critic. And then the work will begin.
What is inside you yearning to be heard? What is it your body wants to say to your mind? What is important to you?
This is deep YOU work - you will not be sharing with others - instead you will explore where your heart and mind needs you to go. The final part of this will be exploring joy and how that might look for you.
This talk was first delivered at #MozCon 2019 by Cindy Krum (@Suzzicks). It reveals a theory about Google's Mobile-First Indexing that posits the idea that the change was more about organizing the world's information around the Knowledge Graph. It also suggests that Google may now be indexing units that are smaller than pages or URLs that we are calling #Fraggles (a Fragment + a Handle).

Website Migrations & SEO: Walking through a Timeline of SEO Launch EssentialsEdwin Romero
A website migration is a cross-disciplinary, carefully coordinated, and highly budgeted effort.
It’s no surprise - websites can be very lucrative and invaluable to brand recognition across digital channels.
Organic search is no exception.
But where does SEO fit into a migration? And how can one prioritize SEO amidst so many moving pieces?
To better understand the role SEO plays in a migration, I’d like to walk you through a timeline of SEO launch essentials. That is, projects and tasks I have found to be necessary in preserving organic performance during a migration.

Best practice is not enough #brightonSEO @Linkdex #SEOnow stageBranded3
Think back to the last time you applied for a job. It doesn’t matter if you work in-house or agency side – it’s likely that there was a line in your job spec that read “a good understanding of best practice”.
But when you turned up on your first day at work, knowing the best thing to do in every situation that might arise I doubt you were surprised to find out that the best thing to do couldn’t be done.
The website wasn’t built that way.
The client won’t sign that off.
That’ll never get past legal.
So you need to come up with the second best thing to do. That’s not part of best practice. Opinions come to a head and nothing gets done because businesses are mistaken in their opinion that doing nothing is fine if the best thing can’t be done.
But best practice is a misnomer anyway.
When we say best practice what we really mean is standard practice.
If all you ever implement is standard practice that’s all you’ll be. Standard.
If you can’t even reach standard your business deserves to fail.
Where does best practice even come from though? People treat it as if it’s some kind of bible handed down from the gatekeepers – the guys who can shut off your revenue.
Best practice is actually more like Wikipedia than a bible. It’s populated by everyone who works in the industry and most of it is factually incorrect. You should get 0 points for referencing it. The only things in there that actually do come from the channel owners are loaded with bias. Contributions from experts are self-serving and so many pat each other and themselves on the back that received wisdom becomes perceived fact.
But if neither are reliable – and if what everyone is doing is the same thing – isn’t there a chance that doing something, anything different could drive better results than best practice?
I would always overrule an expert if the data says otherwise.
If we know our customers want X and the channel owners want Y, we should spend our time getting X to work with Y and not the other way around.
Staff are fearful that deliberately setting out to do something that isn’t best practice will result in an automatic dismissal. I’m not saying it won’t.
As a result, people will wait months or years for best practice to be implemented because it’s safe. The channel owners told us to do it. The experts concurred. Businesses spend a lot of money and a lot of time being average because nobody gets sacked for being average. After all – it’s in the job description.
Social Media: People First, "Rules" Second (#MozCon 2016)Dana DiTomaso
You can follow all the “rules” about perfect post length, perfect time to post, perfect image size, and everything else and still not see any financial impact from social media. Dana doesn't think social media should always revolve around community building and group hugs. When you show the right people what they want to see, when they want to see it, you'll start attributing revenue increases to social media efforts.

- Tools and techniques to keep you a step ahead
