In this clip, we’re going to talk about how SEO is going to change in 2020 and unfortunately you’re not going to like it, but before we do, don’t forget to subscribe or follow whatever platform you are watching on right now, especially if you enjoy a clips on marketing, entrepreneurship, growth, productivity, and more stuff. You’re going to enjoy it. Check it out. All right, so SEO, here’s what’s happening with SEO right now. If you think about Google, because Google is the largest, they take on the lion’s share of the traffic in the U S and a lot of countries around the world. The problem with this is they’re a publicly traded company. Now their incentives are to make more money for their shareholders. Now it’s no longer just don’t be evil, which was their model in the past. They actually took that off of kind of their, their mission statement or part of their mission and values.
So you think about it now, there’s only so much space. There’s only so much real estate and on a search result page. So it used to be in the past, you know their ads. I remember in high school when, when they started, um, Google ad words, um, the, there was only like one snippet and as crystal clear that it was an ad, right? And now over over the years, now it’s becoming less and less apparent that it’s an ad, right? It used to be highlighted in yellow. It was like crystal clear as an ad and there’s only like one or two of them right now you might see like four or five ads at the very top and you see more ads at the bottom because Google is making a less apparent than their ads and they’re putting more ads on the, on the on search engine result pages, they’re making more money, they’re incentivized to make money, which means the organic results, the SEO results, those are getting pinched down a little bit, right?
So what used to be at the very top above the fold that would get like the lion’s share of the clicks. Now it’s getting pushed down so much that you know these to say like maybe the number one result in SEO might get 25 to 40 to 50% of, of the clicks. Now it’s like, you know, it might go down to like 10% or so. There’s a clip I’m going to show you in a little bit where, uh, when I spoke at the marketing school live conference, I’m, I actually share some data, uh, from, from rand Fishkin, from spark Toro, the search result pages, they’re getting more and more consolidated as become a tougher and tougher to, um, to make SEO work.

SEO can take a long time to get any kind of meaningful results.
While you can’t “force” Google to rank you faster, there are actually a number of quick things you can do to improve SEO for your website.
One of the easiest things you can do is improve page speed with lazy load. When you implement lazy loading, things like images or videos will only load when they’re visible on the page.
This will reduce initial page load time, initial page weight, and system resource usage, all of which should positively impact performance.
Find out what tools you’ll need to enable lazy loading in the video.
Next, improve clickthrough rate for pages ranking on page one.
It’s widely accepted in the SEO community that pages with a higher clickthrough rate can help increase rankings.
And since 75% of users never scroll past the first page of search results, it’s better to focus on improving CTR for your first page rankings.
Learn how to do this in the video.
Third, send emails to everyone you link to. This 10-minute outreach strategy is a great way to passively earn links and grow your network. You will learn how to do this in the video.
Fourth, add internal links to your new pages.
Internal linking helps to improve crawlability, gets your pages indexed faster, improves topical relevance, and distributes PageRank to other pages so you can rank higher in Google.
To learn how to find relevant pages to add internal links from, watch the video.
The next tip is to become a power skimmer of HARO using Gmail filters.
HARO stands for help a reporter out. It’s a free service where journalists can ask questions, and anyone can respond and be a source for mega publications like The New York Times and Forbes.
The thing with this service is that they usually send 3 emails per day which can be quite overwhelming, considering 90% of the queries probably won’t be relevant to you.
So, a quick hack to make sure opportunities don’t get missed is to lighten the load with Gmail filters.
How do you do this? Watch the video.
Sixth, perform an annual content audit. A content audit is where you analyze the performance of all content on your site to determine whether it should be kept as-is, updated, deleted, consolidated, or redirected.
You’ll find out how to perform a content audit in the video.
Lastly, repurpose your best-performing blog posts to videos, and your best videos to blog posts. You’ll learn how to do this in the video.

Despite multiple website building tools available, more and more enterprises are moving their website or blog section to WordPress. According to WordPress.org’s own statistics, 60 million websites around the world now rely on their platform. That accounts for…
A run-of-the-mill money-making operation used tawdry, hateful clickbait and evaded Facebook’s apparently negligible protections.
STOP Paying for SEO Tools – The Only 4 Tools You Need to Rank #1 in Google | When I got started in SEO, there were dozen of tools out there. They were all expensive, and, hey, unless you wanted rankings, you would have to pay for one of these tools. But times have changed. There’s not just dozens of tools now, there’s hundreds of tools. And because of that, there’s a lot of free ones as well. Today, I’m going to breakdown why you should stop paying for SEO tools, and only use these four free tools if you want to rank number one on Google.

So, tool number one. You ready for this? Google Search Console.
Here’s what I love Google Search Console for. I do a comparison of my traffic right now, for the last 30 days, to my traffic six months ago. And I look for the pages that have the biggest drop off in impressions and clicks. I now know that these are the pages that I need to go back on my site, go and adjust and update.
You may add some videos if you think that helps improve the experience. You delete the stuff that doesn’t make sense. You shorn out the fluff, because sometimes, you may have just long articles because you were trying keyword stuff.
The second tool I have for you is Structured Data Markup Helper. Look, if you want those star ratings on your site, you want to be included in the rich snippets, you want your listing to stand out, you got to use structured data.
But how do you use structured data? Well, it’s complicated because depending on the type of website you have, the structured data is going to look different.
So that way, when someone’s doing a search on Google, they can see all those little breadcrumbs, and that helps increase your click-through rate.
The third tool I have for you, Google Trends. This is super important. The reason being is if your brand continually gets searched more and more, you’ll notice that your rankings increase. So, it’s all about brand building. And you’ll find, “Hey, Neil, “why do I need to increase my brand?” Well, Google, Facebook, and all the social sites out there have issues of fake news.
And Google Trends shows you that.
Now, last but not least, another free tool, Ubersuggest. If you want to do SEO, Ubersuggest has the features of Moz, SEMrush, Ahrefs, pretty much the majority 80 plus percent of their features for free.
So, if you want to site audit, well there’s an SEO audit report in Ubersuggest that breaks down your load time, your title tags, your meta description, your code errors, your URL issues, your redirect issues.
And it tells you how to fix each of them. And it breaks down in priority on which ones you should change first to get the maximum amount of traffic. You’re looking for more keywords to go after? Ubersuggest also has a keyword ideas report.
And the keyword ideas report shows you all the keywords that you can go after. According to Jumpshot, roughly 49% of the searches that happen on Google get no clicks. Well, with Ubersuggest, they’ll show you keywords that are based on questions, comparisons, prepositions.
These are all high intent keywords. So if you after them in your copy, you’ll find that you’ll get more clicks, more traffic, and those visitors that are aligning on your site will convert because you’re not just going after generic keywords now. There’s also backlinks report.
You can put in any URL of your competitor or your site. Shows you who links to them. And then you can hit up all those people, assume you put in a competitor URL, and ask them to link back to your site if your content’s better.
This will give you an idea of the type of content you should produce versus the type of content you shouldn’t produce.
And, of course, last but not least, there’s a traffic analyzer report that shows you how much traffic your competitors are getting versus you. So you have a rough comparison of what you need to do to improve your traffic.
