Editor's Notes
- Many of the pages that you are currently ranking on don’t even have ads
- 1.6 out of 1,000 peopleRecent study – a blank banner received the same average click through
- You’ve written content that has inspired sharing and conversation…Passionate recommendations. The chances that I click on that are much greater than .016% that’s for sure.
- 12K per month of one press release syndicator
- In the 70’s it was 500, today it’s 10X that. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-3445_162-2015684.html

- As search marketers every two years we hear that “SEO is dead” for one reason or another. In fact, that was speculated when we mad our recent name change…
- I assure you it is not dead, in fact in the last 6 years it has increased by 600%Each day, Google’s one million servers, located all over the world, process over 3 billion search requests, providing more than 21 billion page views. The searches come from internet users in more than 180, with queries written in almost 150 different languages; 15% of the queries are entirely new
- These aren’t just common searches that may be very competitive, such as “yoga” (250,000 searches per month)

- Nearly 70% of all searches are only search upon by less than 10 people. Don’t Sweat the BIG STUFF!
- Now that I’ve showed you that there is opportunity in search, let’s go to exhibit b: Organic results vs. Paid SearchSearch results pages that have ads, organic still receives over 75% of the clicks
- No presentation is complete without a vin diagramEach of these factors have many levers that you can manipulate and optimize for SEO

Knowledge Graph has more than 570 million entities and 18 billion facts about connections between them, by Google's count.
