Why Does SEO Keep Changing And How Do We Stay on Top of It?
It's true, no one outside of Google fully understands how it works, even Google Partners. True SEO experts figure things out by studying data and reading Google's blogs and updates, and they never stop learning.
Here's What We Know:
Content Relevance and Quality
Google wants to show users the best results, so content that matches what people are looking for is always important.
User Experience
Google rewards sites that are easy to use and accessible for everyone. This includes things like alt text being accurate and helpful.
Play the Game
Google has created many ways to put your business into their system. The primary way to do this is a Google Business profile—but just having the page isn't enough. You have to know how to use it.
Penalties for Over-Optimization
If you try to cheat the system by overloading pages with keywords or using other tricks, Google will penalize your site.
Although real SEO experts may not know all of the algorithm's details, focusing on quality content and user experience keeps you ahead."
