Google’s Machine Learning and Its Impact on Keyword Research [1:20 – 13:24]
From time immemorial keyword research has more or less been about finding the most advantageous keyword from a competitive perspective with the maximum search volume. Everyone was on the hunt for high search volume keywords. However, with the advent of search as a journey or with Google being a discovery engine,
We SEOs tend to look at search very monolithically…. That’s starting to change but we’re not there yet. We see a user and a search. We see the same user and the next search. We look at search from a very utilitarian perspective. Google does not. Google says that users view search almost as a pastime in a way. As something to do… as something to become engrossed in. Have you ever just sat down with nothing better to do or perhaps to escape something you had to do and just searched from one thing to the next? We would say, and we very much believe that Google agrees, that “search” is more aligned to what we just described than it is about isolated search events.
If we go with that, then Google offering you what you want for a specific search without trying to guide you to the next logical search, or without offering a segue to continue would be totally unaligned to how a user operates, to what the user latently expects! So what does Google do? Search as a journey. They use all sorts of a bag of tricks sort to speak to push content avenues before the eyes of the user… and that makes SO much sense!
Now here you are and you’re basing your content generation off of looking for the next big high volume low competition keyword… but that’s monolithic. That is not how Google sees search, it’s not how Google goes about content placement on the SERP. Thus, the keyword research process should delve into the full spectrum of whatever topic you’re dealing with, much the way Google does when showing results on the SERP. In a recent blog post entitled What Should Keyword Research Look Like in 2019, the example Mordy used was for a keyword related to mutual funds. Now, you could find all of the high volume keywords related to mutual funds and create a super high volume list of super traffic drivers. Or, you could do research (by using a tool like our Keyword Research Suite) to pull in keywords from features like the PAA box and related searches in order to get a broader and more holistic view of the topic. In the case of mutual funds that meant subtopics related to mutual funds being a safe investment (or not), how lucrative are mutual funds, what are the taxation implications…. If you just go high search volume you may focus entirely on but one of those subtopics and miss out on any of the content exploration opportunities Google puts in front of the user.
Pay to Play? Is Organic Dying? – A Conversation with Lukasz Zelezny [13:25 – 35:09]
Mordy: Joining us today, from China to England he is an international keynote speaker par excellence with 15 years experience as an SEO and digital consultant. He is the world-renowned Lukasz Zelezny. Lukasz is right here lately to discuss the well being of all issues natural on the internet! Welcome! Sooner than we get going, you actually shuttle in every single place the sector and also you discuss in any respect forms of occasions and the only commonplace theme I see is your vest. How did that get began?
Lukasz: That’s proper. No vest no a laugh. A waistcoat is a should.
M: K! Let’s get into the well being of all factor natural. Let’s get started with natural seek. Let me ask you immediately. Is natural seek death? No longer that it’s lifeless… it’s no longer lifeless, however what’s your opinion on Google an increasing number of focused on customers with SERP options?
L: You are saying it’s death but it surely’s in reality advantageous. search engine marketing is like The Rolling Stones. They all the time say that that is their closing live performance and so they do any other 5 which might be additionally their closing. We want to perceive one essential factor. The concept that of seek has existed approach lengthy prior to the web with telephone books and the like and so natural seek will all the time be protected. If Google turns into too pushy then they’ll fly away to different search engines like google which is already taking place.
M: You consider it’s already taking place?
L: In fact. In a different way, DuckDuckGo wouldn’t be rising as rapid or even Bing I don’t imagine is that unhealthy. I consider they’re doing nice stuff and I like to recommend folks to make use of Bing Webmaster Gear.
M: DuckDuckGo during the last two-three months has been in every single place the scoop with information in their seek numbers leaping up. Within the intervening time, what can seek entrepreneurs do to stick afloat with Google the usage of such a lot of SERP options?
L: Neatly I feel there’s a large number of alternatives nonetheless. For instance, Featured Snippets. I’m a large fan and after I spotted it whilst running at Uswitch I sought after to determine learn how to scale it and I began hiring somebody to just optimize for Featured Snippets. I discovered available in the market was once just one different competitor that was once seeking to put their pages into the Featured Snippet.
M: I’ve this principle that during one or two years from now Featured Snippets received’t really feel like the large win like they’re now. It kind of feels like Google is beginning to use direct resolution headings within the Featured Snippet and that as time is going on that enormous snippet we get will turn out to be smaller and smaller. They’ll nonetheless come from a web site however can be a lot more aligned to the unique question and there’s no explanation why for a consumer to click on the URL. Do you spot that taking place? Do you no longer see it? What are your ideas?
L: I feel it’s a component of a larger downside. It’s the use of third-party content material, regularly with out consent, within the SERP. The entire thought of AMPs, as an example, that they’re serving content material from Google cache. We can see. If Featured Snippets disappear then they’ll do one thing new. We don’t know but. Should you return to 2009 and examine that to at the moment you’ll see that a large number of issues didn’t exist however, basically, was once the SERP truly that other? I feel it didn’t alternate that a lot.
M: Proper. I most effective ask on account of Cindy Krum’s principle
L: I feel
M: Do you assume it’s nonetheless imaginable to broaden relationships with influencers organically or have we reached the purpose the place paid connections are the one ones that exist? Does that imply the grassroots connections that manufacturers used to make are fading away?
L: I feel it’s a grey space. We nonetheless want to keep in mind about Google’s Phrases of Carrier and so they say obviously what you’ll or can’t do. At the present time it’s extra can’t than can as a result of the whole lot is being thought to be money-related subjects. And any money-related scenario can also be dangerous the place folks will ask for particular hyperlinks and be choosy about it. I’m all the time seeking to pivot logo into my global, however every now and then I will be a large fan of actual fit area. 3 years in the past, I obtained https://web optimization.london/ and https://socialmedia.pl/ and I will see that it’s no longer like the speculation that claims that it doesn’t make any distinction anymore. Nearly talking, I feel a website like cheapholidays.com and web optimization.com are names which can be simple to keep in mind which provides them a large number of attainable and price.
M: To take your instance of cheaphotels.com. If that’s your URL identify it carries this authoritativeness that you’re the authority in affordable lodges which then builds
L: Let me be very cheeky and say entrepreneurs can live to tell the tale on Twitter by means of shifting into LinkedIn. I’m afraid that if in 10 years from now you’ll invite me then there can be no Twitter. The entire thought is death. I’ve a large downside with Fb’s promoting the place I am getting bombarded with those tremendous low-quality advertisements. I don’t wish to see any other computerized webinar advert that says it is going to build up my industry ten-fold. Via the best way, there’s no intent on Fb. All of those advertisements are being posted on Messenger. I haven’t any downside with Instagram. But if I’m going into LinkedIn I’ve peace of thoughts. I’ve my leads, assembly folks, having a certified dialog. I nonetheless get individuals who come to junk mail me and that’s the drawback, however I like LinkedIn. And in the event you truly wish to have a laugh you will have to improve your account. It’s the most efficient 20 kilos I spend each and every month. It’s most effective 4 pints (of beer) and I don’t care to have 4 pints sacrificed for a LinkedIn account.
M: Yeah, I completely agree as I additionally hate the commercials on Fb. Via the best way, how do you leverage LinkedIn content material smart?
L: I’m seeking to be moderately open no longer simply posting about my search engine marketing issues. And I’m focused on industry house owners who aren’t truly thinking about studying such things as, “learn how to move slowly a web site.” Industry house owners would slightly see answers so as a substitute, I might write, “Glance how I optimized this web site. Do you want to discuss this?” Once I become a British citizen in 2017, which I’m very happy with, I posted an image on my Fb and on LinkedIn. On LinkedIn, I’ve 25,000 fans and the quantity of reaction, engagement, and feedback
M: Yeah, I created an search engine marketing video collection and I hyperlink to it on Twitter but it surely does a lot better on LinkedIn.
L: Proper, and video is a brilliant media at the moment on LinkedIn. Additionally, the truth they’re monetizing on Professional accounts and will make
Optimize It or Disavow It
M: Natural search engine marketing or PPC you’ll do one or the opposite however no longer each… which do you do?!
L: In fact, natural search engine marketing. If I did PPC I might be bored and after 3 days I might die. I’ve had this dialogue previously with my buddies and I might let you know why search engine marketing is extra thrilling than PPC. And that’s as a result of search engine marketing was once by no means absolutely clear. There’s no guide. It’s roughly like an RPG or a marathon. When I used to be first running for myself I spotted for the primary time after 17 years how it’s to do one thing since you find it irresistible and that it is helping enhance your circle of relatives. And don’t get me fallacious, I completely beloved my full-time jobs. However at the moment it’s this second of a “reconsideration request.” I believe very fortunate that I’m in the precise position on the proper time and I want for everybody to be on the proper position on the proper time with the precise abilities.
M: Wow. We truly recognize you taking the time from your busy agenda to sign up for us. Thanks such a lot for approaching.
