Posted by SimonPenson[Estimated read time: 17 minutes] On-page content is certainly not one of the sexier topics in digital marketing. Lost in the flashing lights of "cool digital marketing trends" and things to be seen talking about, it's become the poor relative of many a hyped "game-changer." I’m here to argue that, in being distracted by the topics that may be more "cutting-edge," we're leaving our most valuable assets unloved and at the mercy of underperformance. This post is designed not only to make ... →

Posted by Cyrus-Shepard[Estimated read time: 11 minutes] How fresh is this article? Through patent filings over the years, Google has explored many ways that it might use “freshness” as a ranking signal. Back in 2011, we published a popular Moz Blog post about these “Freshness Factors” for SEO. Following our own advice, this is a brand new update of that article. In 2003, Google engineers filed a patent named Information retrieval based on historical data that shook the SEO world. The patent not only offere... →

Posted by Sheena_Schleicher[Estimated read time: 23 minutes]A number of years ago I sat in on a webinar that covered behaviors of great SEOs, a topic that really intrigued me as a young but experienced digital marketer wanting to grow in the space. Through a variety of interactions in response to the presentation, mostly sharing how each person worked with brands to get things done, someone used the phrase "SEO Enabler" to describe my approach.I liked the concept and went on to frequently refer to myself as... →

Posted by Daniel_Marks[Estimated read time: 6 minutes] This was one of the first television commercials to ever air: Talking to the camera on a mic was the obvious way to leverage television: after all, that's how radio commercials worked. Now, advertisers could just put radio commercials on television. What an exciting new advertising medium! As it turns out, putting radio commercials on television wasn’t really the best use of this new medium. Sound familiar? This seems awfully similar to the current prac... →

Posted by AngularAs SEOs, often find ourselves facing new changes implemented by search engines that impact how our clients' websites perform in the SERPs. With each change, it is important that we look beyond its immediate impact and think about its future implications so that we can try to answer this question: "If I were Google, why would I do that?"Recently, Google implemented a series of manual penalties for that affected sites deemed to have unnatural outbound links. Webmasters of affected sites recei... →

Posted by serpschris[Estimated read time: 7 minutes] One of the biggest takeaways from SearchFest in Portland earlier this year was the rapidly rising importance of semantic search and structured data — in particular Schema.org. And while implementing Schema used to require a lot of changes to your site's markup, the JSON-LD format has created a great alternative to adding microdata to a page with minimal code. Check out Mike Arnesen's deck from his SearchFest talk, "Understanding & Facilitating Semantic Se... →

Posted by RuthBurrReedy[Estimated read time: 16 minutes] On February 17th, sports news and opinion blog SB Nation posted a longform story titled “Who is Daniel Holtzclaw?” The story, which took a sympathetic viewpoint on convicted rapist Daniel Holtzclaw, sparked a huge amount of controversy among SB Nation readers and garnered the blog a great deal of media attention.

Posted by MiriamEllis[Estimated read time: 7 minutes] Coworking office spaces have existed for more than a decade around the globe, and I consider it a testament to their growing popularity for start-ups and agencies that I’ve been seeing an increasing number of questions about them in recent times at places like the Moz Q&A forum and elsewhere.

Posted by katykatztxImagine launching a company without any research or a business plan — without having a concept of the market size, nor even knowing if there are any competitors. It would be absurd, right? As an entrepreneurship major in college, I spent a full year working on business plans, which are integral to a solid strategy and the backbone of most successful companies. Even the businesses that “got lucky” started with some semblance of a framework early on. Sure, there has been talk about busine... →
