Posted by Tom-Anthony[Estimated read time: 8 minutes] Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs) are capable of radically disrupting the way we search for and consume information on the Internet. The convergence of several trends and technologies has resulted in a new interface through which people will be able to interact with your business. This will have a dramatic impact — if your long-term marketing/business plan doesn't account for IPAs, you may be in the same boat as those people who said they didn't nee... →

Posted by Isla_McKettaYou know you're supposed to write scannable copy. But do you know why? On the average Web page, users have time to read at most 28% of the words during an average visit; 20% is more likely. – Jakob Nielsen Nope, it's not just that. Although the tiny fraction of attention readers have for your content is always important to keep in mind. But instead of another "write for the F-pattern reader" article, let's dig into the psychological underpinnings of how readers process information. You... →

Posted by bridget.randolph[Estimated read time: 9 minutes] Note: this post is based on a recent presentation I gave at LearnInbound Dublin. You can find the slides here. Mobile search as a topic has changed a lot over the past few years. When I first started looking at this, back in 2012, there was already a lot of discussion happening around the topic of mobile. And back then, the big question everyone was asking was, “what should my mobile strategy be?” Even then, things were shifting. At one of my early ... →

Теперь результаты поисковой выдачи Google выглядят шире привычных, так как изменена ширина колонки с 512px до 600px. Если совсем недавно в отображаемый тайтл сайтов вмещалось около 60 символов (когда-то было до 70, но потом увеличили размер шрифта), то сейчас снова около 70 символов. Со средней длиной слова в русском языке 7.2 символа получается, что в тайтл можно вместить до 10 слов. При этом, количество учитываемых в тайтле слов так и осталось – 12 первых слов (остальные воспринимаются как текст). Почему ... →

Posted by JamesAgate[Estimated read time: 9 minutes] For the most part, articles on content promotion focus on launching new content. Today I want to focus on getting the most out of (and in some cases, breathing new life into) existing content. We frequently see clients that have a variety of content assets already. Where possible, I always advocate using what's on hand over indiscriminately pumping out new content. For the following exercise, we need to start by identifying the content assets; we’ll be lo... →

Posted by rjonesx.[Estimated read time: 13 minutes] I joined Moz in August of 2015 and fell right into the middle of something great. Rand had brought his broad vision of a refined yet comprehensive SEO keyword tool to a talented team of developers, designers, data scientists and project managers... and now, me. I was hoping to ease in with a project that was right up my wheelhouse, so when the "Volume" metric in Keyword Explorer was pitched as something I could work on, I jumped right on it. In my mind, I ... →

Posted by Aleyda[Estimated read time: 9 minutes] I know you would never change a URL without identifying where to 301-redirect it and making sure that the links, XML sitemaps, and/or canonical tags are also updated. But if you've been doing SEO for a while, I bet you've also had a few clients — even big ones — coming to you after they've tried to do structural web changes or migrations of any type without taking SEO best practices into consideration. Whenever this happens, your new client comes to you for h... →

Posted by willcritchlowWhat would you say if I told you that the average SEO at a big company has been waiting over six months for their highest priority technical change and doesn’t anticipate seeing it deployed for at least another six months? (40+% have been waiting over a year). If you work in that kind of environment, there’s a good chance you’re not surprised, and if you’ve worked as a consultant and your experience is anything like mine, you might even be asking yourself “is that all?” It’s such a co... →
