Posted by FeliciaCrawford‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all throughout MozNot a laptop was whirring, the office on pause.The colorful Great Wheel spun slow on the pier,Downtown Seattle alive with good cheer. The Moz Dogs were nestled at home in their beds,Dreams of dropped tacos alive in their heads.And I, staying late to write on the blog,Had just closed my MacBook, and downed my eggnog. Whence from down the hall came a soft pitter-patter;I arose from my desk to spy what was the matter.Peering ‘rou... →

Posted by Alan_ColemanBy now, we're all pretty used to Knowledge Graph results in the SERPs.

In this video blog, Alan Coleman speculates about a potential 100% conversion rate in the SERPs and raises the question of Google's role in an increasingly app-centric world.

Posted by sherisaidIn the war for customer attention in a content-saturated market, most small businesses are losing. The reason often comes down to budget.

So, how can you produce the value your customers crave and break the Internet without breaking the bank? The answer may surprise you: It is repurposing content.Repurposing content is an efficient and cost-effective way to use valuable resources t... →

Posted by Dr-PeteAs part of the MozCast 10K (a 10,000-keyword daily Google tracker), we keep a close eye on the domains with the most page-one Google real-estate. As of December 1st, these were the "Big 10": "Share" represents the percentage of total results each domain has across the entire data set. Of course, absolute rankings can vary a lot depending on the data set, but what's more interesting is how any given brand moves over time.We watch day-to-day movements closely as search marketers, and often tr... →

Posted by RoyhLast month Google made a big announcement, potentially signaling a game changer for search. Google is quietly rolling out app-only content indexing, even if that content isn’t actually hosted on the indexed app. So, what does that actually mean? The game-changing implication is that when you search Google from your phone or tablet, app-only content will “stream” directly to your mobile device — even if you don’t have the app installed. Thus, if I search for the key phrase “hotel tonight in Chi... →

Posted by Liam_CurleyThis article highlights a direct marketing campaign we launched at Supremo. Yes, old-fashioned direct marketing may well be the devil, but I wanted to put this forward to the community because I think the campaign can be recycled for PR and outreach campaigns, too.Before I get into the details of what we did, it’s probably good to start with who we are and why we launched this campaign. Supremo is made up three directors, each of whom has a different strong suit: marketing, design and d... →

Posted by Dr-PeteIt's been 3 1/2 years since we launched the MozCast project, and one request I hear a lot is if we can make more than 30 days worth of data available. So, working with Dave Snyder and the team at CopyPress, we've put together the highlights of 2014 and 2015 — the confirmed algorithm updates you already know, and the ones you might have missed. The data is mine, but credit for everything else goes to CopyPress (Thanks, Dave!). If you have any questions about specific events or dates, feel fr... →

Posted by MackenzieFogelsonIn 1989, I was conquering the eighth grade with a pair of Hammer pants, big bangs, and a stockpile of Aqua Net hairspray. During class, notes would be passed so friends could arrange to drink Dr. Pepper, eat Skor Bars, and play Debbie Gibson’s Electric Youth album on a ghetto blaster after school. On a real good day, there’d be a message from the guy I was “going with” on the answering machine when I got home. Source: Antique and Retro Shoppers Map Luckily for us, since the late 8... →

I recently spoke at the Dallas Fort Worth Search Engine Marketing Association’s annual State of Search conference on how to incorp... →

Yet, a large number of webmasters still aren’t fully aware of the problem.By definition, this is a problem with the internal information structure of the website: It occurs when multiple pages are targeting the same (or very similar) keywords.In my experience, I’ve seen the problem occur both wittingly and unwittingly. One example of creating suc... →
