The Relationship Between CRO, CTR, and SEO

I watched an interesting video on SearchEngineJournal this morning, and it got me thinking.

This got me thinking that there’s [...]

Are You Credible?

Since the advent of Google’s Authorship Markup, Internet marketing has become significantly more dependent on something that it lacked for about a decade: credibility. Now, Google has recently backed off a little bit on that by removing the author photograph and the ‘In X circles’ from their listings — but they still use authorship markup [...]

PageRank dominates everyone’s attention, as do keyword lists and competition [...]

Web Design Trends of the Moment: The Hero Image

The ‘hero image’ ideal came into being a few years ago — iStock had an article on them way back in 2010 — but only recently has it gone fully mainstream, with a few big-time companies like PayPal adopting the hero image motif on their login screen.

Here’s a “New” Concept in SEO: KISS It Off

SEO is, by its very nature, one of those cutting-edge fields where everyone is always trying to be the latest and greatest at what they do — and because of that, SEO people embrace new, flashy tech and hardcore analysis of minutia with wild abandon.

Hummingbird Beats, Keyword Context, and SEO Writing.

I’ve written a few articles on Google’s Hummingbird update before, and in them I noted that one of the primary effects of Hummingbird is that Google is now using ‘microdata schema’ to parse your content. The upshot is that Google seems to really want you to spend a boatload of time and energy filling your [...]

How to Write Content That May Show Up on ‘In Depth Articles’

It’s been just over seven months now that Google has been returning ‘in depth articles’ in its search results for broad search queries — terms like ‘investment’, ‘terrorism’, ‘net neutrality’, and even ‘cheese.’ According to the blog of the programmer that created the quirky mechanic behind the results, the purpose is to display “thoughtful in-depth [...]
