The landscape of web content writing has changed. Google is now prioritizing contents that are authentic and genuine, written for people. I started writing in 2009 and learned from so called “SEO experts”. Things were smooth until Google Panda hits.
That’s when I realized that everything I knew about SEO were wrong. Fast forward to today, I no longer read or listen to anyone about how to recover from algo changes.
I now write based on people’s needs and give it to them if I can. Be as genuine in helping them as possible.
If you are writing thinking that your article will rank, stop it. You should not think that it will rank on SERP in the first place. That’s quite an obvious red flag that you do not intend to help people which Google wants you to prioritize.
How to Survive Algorithm Change
Digital marketing through Google accepted SEO techniques is the only way to go if you want to survive. Gone are the days when you have to follow a certain template or format in writing. Don’t you get it?
What does Google find acceptable?
Being helpful to users. Stop writing with a template.
By doing stuff that Pro-SEOs did, you are actually exposing yourself to Google’s radar for inauthentic content. The real technique now is to write a piece of content that people actually find helpful.
If you are writing based on this and that, you are not prioritizing the user. You are following a template for the search engine. And Google will know that.
What’s my proof that my strategy is working? You found this article because Google sent you here. So it means I am probably doing something right.
