#1 SEO Trend -The voice search explosion

Voice search is all around us. With the launch of the voice-activated speakers like Google Home, Amazon Echo, Android Auto, etc., voice search is becoming more and more a new platform for marketing and advertising. It is totally changing the way the users’ are communicating with search engines to find solutions to their issues.

=> Google says that 20% of search queries are accounted for voice search.
=> 40% of adults use voice search once every day.
=> 50% of all searches will be voice related by 2020.

Of all the SEO Trends currently, Voice Search is perhaps the most important.

Frankly, if you are not catering for Voice Search you are being left behind!

How to optimize for voice search?

It is not enough to use traditional keyword phrases.

People are asking different questions like “how to”, “what”, “where”, “best”, etc.

Create more question-related content by describing their problems.

#2 SEO Trend – Video

Video as a must-have part of any content strategy.

Video is still growing and becoming an integral part for any serious brand or company. People spend less time reading a bunch of information on a site, instead they prefer watching videos. Video is one of the most persuasive form of content that helps retain users on the page and, as a result, let Google know that this page is great.

Video marketing is a must-have job skill.

Especially, it will work well for e-commerce businesses that use videos on their product pages.

Here are a few interesting facts:

=> 55% of users watch online videos every day.
=> Video traffic will account for 80% of all consumer internet traffic by 2021.
=> Almost 50% of people search for videos involved with services or products before visiting a store.

If you want to get the most out of videos, YouTube is your partner of choice!

YouTube takes the second place as the most visited site on the web, after Google.

Some Video SEO optimization tips:

a. Start keyword research in YouTube.

Just enter a keyword in the search, and you will find the most popular search terms on YouTube. Gather a list of your niche-related keywords and use the best ones from your list.

seo search video

b. Create high-quality videos.

Keep your videos on point and informative. People love watching high-quality and long-form video content. Videos that have at least 5 minutes in length will have good chances to rank higher in Google search results.

c. Make punchy video titles.

Titles affect the ranking of your video, that’s why it is vital to develop video descriptions with utmost care and consideration. them seriously. Create complete titles – at least 5 words long and include a target keyword you want to rank for.

Make punchy video titles.

d. Write a smart description. [This is KEY]

It is important to add video descriptions as it helps search engines better understand the content of your video. The better you explain your video, the higher you will rank. Write at least 250 words and make sure to use your keyword in the first sentence of your description. (see perfect example below from Brian Dean)

Write smart description

e. Embed your videos in blog posts.

This is obvious, but a surprising number of people who create great videos, do not embed them on their own blogs.

This gives you a perfect opportunity to connect with readers who may not be YouTube visitors

Not only that, done correctly, it can help you stand out from the crowd and increase conversions.

#3 SEO Trend – Mobile-first indexing

With the forthcoming mobile-first index, the rise of the voice search, the fact that 60% of all searches come from the mobile devices and mobile optimization becoming a ranking factor – we can’t ignore mobile SEO anymore. Google prefers more and more mobile-optimized web pages and recommends to focus on the user experience for mobile devices. If your website is not mobile-friendly, it is time to to do it.

What can you do about it?

Check out whether your web pages are mobile-friendly.

You do it with Google’s Mobile-Friendly Test.

Just enter the URL you want to test and get your results.

If you have some issues, you can get instant recommendations on how to fix it and re-run the test once again.

Check out whether your web pages are mobile-friendly.

It is essential to pay attention to things like your mobile speed, AMP, and mobile UX optimization. Mobile audience is less endurant while waiting for the web page to load. Test your mobile site speed and fix all issues that can hamper your mobile pages to load quickly.

A truly responsive design is crucial if you want to hold and attract customers that search and shop using mobile devices. Along with a responsive site, there are things you should focus on like content, images, videos, slideshows. Make sure that content for mobile devices is easy to read, titles are short, and the touch elements are clickable.

CTA SEO

If you don’t have time to make your site mobile-friendly, you can do it using the mobile website builder by SE Ranking. It will help you create a mobile version of your site within a few minutes and increase conversions by 28% on average.

mobile seo

#4 SEO Trend – Featured Snippets

Based on this survey, Google provides instant answers to users’ questions in the form of the featured snippets, and it makes up to 30% of all search queries.

This is a Big Deal for SEO as these featured snippets take the new position #1 or position 0.

Featured snippets are stimulating the development of a new type of content like Q&A content. They help users find a clear answer to their questions.

Google takes the best content to answer users’ questions from web pages.

If you want to get listed as a featured snippet, you need to work on SEO optimization too.

Use Q&A style content on your website and follow the structure and formatting of the content to help Google find relevant information for the featured snippets.

featured snippets

Tables with highlights of your content or bullet point lists can also have good chances of becoming a featured snippet, even for small websites.

See this example from our sister website: RetireAt21.com

Featured Snippets, SEO update

=> Do research and ask yourself what your target audience wants to know?

=> What kind of information you should solve their problems or answer questions they are asking?

=> The more useful the answers you provide, the higher chances of ranking better you have.

#5 SEO Trend – Linkless backlinks

Major search engines like Google and Bing have developed the ability to gauge a website’s reputation via any reference to a brand, anywhere online, together with the sentiment it is mentioned in. These references are known as “linkless mentions”, or “linkless backlinks” ~ Search Engine Watch

Over the years, links have been the foundation of SEO.

Right now links are still important, but the best links are those that naturally integrate with the web pages and those that spark users’ interest and encourage them to click on them.

At SMX West 2016, Duane Forrester, Bing senior product manager, announced that Bing is taking into account linkless mentions for ranking.

In other words a mention of your website or BRAND – even though the ‘mention’ does not link to your website.

Some marketers believe that these may be even more valuable than backlinks, as they are more difficult to create.

And many SEO experts believe that this patent may serve as the basis for Google to do the same thing.

What can you do about it?

First, you should rely on long-term link building and get natural and quality links. Learn to lay weight on unlinked backlinks. Search engines are associating more and more mentions with brands that can be a direct signal to define a website’s authority.

It is important to invest not only in the backlink monitoring tools, but use a good web monitoring tool to track any brand or product mentions.

Mention is my favourite tool to get live monitoring data in real time and focus on your brand awareness and reputation management.

mention and SEO

#6 SEO Trends – The User Experience

Talking about SEO optimization, we don’t do that for search engines to rank well, we do for the users of search engines to find our websites. On this basis, the user experience is becoming more and more important for SEO.

Google throws no doubt that a poor user experience will affect site rankings. That’s why it is critical to be adapted for desktop and mobile devices to help users find what they are searching for easily and quickly.

Here is the following to-do list you should focus on:

=> Fast-loading website:

Do you know that the 40% of users leave websites that load more than 3 seconds? In other words, the success of your business doesn’t depend on minutes; it depends on seconds. Make sure your website is loading quickly. From time to time, test your site’ speed and fix any possible issues.

=> Mobile-friendly website:

Given that about 60% of all Google searches come from mobile devices, it is critical to optimize for mobile.

=> Technically functional website:

Users are really picky, and if something doesn’t work on your site, they will leave for good. Try to improve your site’s navigation and avoid using flash.

=> Easy-to-read websites:

If you want to attract users’ attention and increase engagement rate, you need to organize your content in an easy-to-read form. Create catching titles and subheadings, keep your paragraphs short, use visual aids and bullet lists, make your fonts readable, highlight important things.

#7 SEO Trends and Content

Content is still one of the key Google ranking factors.

But content alone is no longer a king.

Context, organization, relevance, and connectivity – all of these elements help you achieve your goals and make the most out of your content.

Over recent years, Google has remarkably improved the analysis of the textual content with the help of the RankBrain technology that understands content better.

So, you should work hard to make genuinely useful and unique content. Make sure that it meets users’ needs and interests. Ponder over the goal of the content you are creating. If you want to get an intense payoff eventually, you need to offer the best content in your industry.

#8 SEO Trends and RankBrain

On October 26, 2015, Greg Corrado, Google senior research scientist, announced that RankBrain has become the third-ranking factor.

Since then Google became more intelligent about detecting links and content that are not natural and unique. With RankBrain, you will get answers to the most challenging questions and get relevant results for the ambiguous search queries with different meanings.

If you want to succeed in SEO, start preparing for search engines. Focus on making natural links and quality content to reach the first page of search engine results. Moreover, Google will pay much attention to usability and technical SEO factors like page speed, site security, schema markup, site architecture.

How to get ready for RankBrain?

a) Drill down your keyword list

Stop using just one keyword or keyword phrase.

Try to expand your semantic core and use more variations and synonyms:

=>Use trending words and hot topics.
=> Pick up your competitors’ branded keywords.
=> Enrich your content with semantic keywords.

b) Write for people, not for search engines

A few years ago it could work, but not right now. Don’t try to please search engines, try to satisfy your target audience. Pick up on designing a better user experience, reviewing users’ behavior and making changes properly.

Make your content comprehensive.

Whatever your Niche – Go in depth!

=> If you’re serious about SEO, you NEED to optimize for RankBrain.

Final Thoughts On SEO Trends In 2018

More than ever, it is not about tricking the search engines, it is about working with the search engines!

While the SEO strategies mentioned above are important –  it should not be forgotten that creating quality content, acquiring natural links, offering a great user experience and making sure your website functions technically* still remain essential.

Creating valuable content for your website that turns into Viral Content is the dream of every website owner.

But how do you make sure you produce valuable viral content – rather than nonsense content, that is quickly forgotten?

Last year I reviewed hundreds of different posts and figured out most viral content shares 4 common elements.

Elements that are essential for viral success and shareability!

Also, my research revealed that some of the most shared content arguably had little commercial value. The clever marketers are the ones who find away to make this often cute and funny content into commercially viable content. I mean what is the point of attracting huge amounts of visitors and paying enormous bandwidth and hosting costs if that traffic has no benefit in terms of sales etc.

viral traffic

Definition of commercial value will vary – but for most of us that will include:

=> Increased Revenue

=> Link Backs and Shares (More inbound links – Improved SEO)

=> PR and Brand awareness (Fame for you and your website)

=> Viral content is a generally low cost way from the small blogger to compete with big budget companies.

The clever blogger can always finds ways that ‘cute’ and ‘funny’ viral content can be used in their online business.

[Examples included below.]

4 Keys to Creating Viral Content

Users share content for different reasons.

Let’s take a look:

#1 “Do not allude to the story. Tell the story” – Kindra Hall

Kindra Hall stated that using the storytelling approach can improve communication with clients and brand strategy for your customers. People love and remember interesting, warm-hearted stories. [Such as in Example below]

viral warm-hearted stories.

The interesting thing about the above Dog Story is that the Publication – metro.co.uk has managed to duplicate the lost dog story many times! [In commercial terms – if you own a blog about dogs or own a pet store this is the kind of viral content to watch out for]

viral content with dog stories

Remember…

People handle visual content 600 000 times faster than text. People read only 20% of the text on a website and the rest of 80% is accounted for by visuals.

Have you ever heard about pareidolia?

This is “a psychological phenomenon involving an image or a sound wherein the mind perceives a familiar pattern of something where none actually exists”. [See Example Below – can you imagine how often something like this gets shared? Find away to include something like this based around your product or niche and you can be on to a huge winner in terms of traffic and links and shares. A company involved is supplying CCTV systems could for example use this.]

pareidolia viral images, marketing

#2 “Follow the trend lines, not the headlines” Bill Clinton

Today to be original is not enough, it is important to keep pace with trends and use the proper platforms to get across to your target audience. You have to analyze different social media networks and monitor what news and topics are trending every day. It will allow you get all interests of your audience and you will know what you should focus on.

Take a look at what influencers share and say about a particular topic and offer users something better. Monitor news on a national, regional and local level.

We all know that in-vogue topics can always increase engagement with your target audience. But we never know what sort of content can go viral and there is no guarantee to predict it.

Here is a great example of following a trend…

I guess everyone has heard about a smashing hit “Game of thrones”. Millions of people are watching the film and monitoring all news based on this film. BuzzFeed is a very popular website that covered one of this posts about this trend and got over 96k shares and 1m views.

viral content success

_________________________________________________________________________________________

 

how to create viral content

Another good example that demonstrated a huge reaction and got over 586K shares is about a Zombie. It was a really fun and trending post that went viral and dominated other most shared content. [If you have a Blog about cruise travel or travel this would work ]

viral content that sells

For those who are creating viral content, it is important to be on top of today’s trending content and have a strong knowledge of what is relevant in your industry in order to become viral. Understanding this need, I recommend you to check out this post from Ann Smarty that covers useful sources to find out what is the latest trending and new topics.

#3 “You need emotional content” – Bruce Lee

People are quite emotional creatures and can feel different feelings from fear up to excitement. When you know the reasons and issues that your target audience cares about, you can integrate a strong emotional tie to your content.

“You need emotional content” - Bruce Lee

If you can activate a human’s emotional side, you can win the jackpot. They will share and talk about your content. No matter what emotions (positive or negative) you trigger with the content you provide, you will skyrocket chances of building new connections and of being shared by your target audience.

The New York Times revealed that entertainment is one of the most common reasons why people share content with friends. Jonah Berger, the author of the book Contagious, studied 7 000 New York Times articles and found out that people like to be “bearer of the good news” rather than a “Debbie downer.” He also revealed that content triggering such emotions like excitement, anger, joy, etc. got shared more than content with low-arousal emotions like sorrow, sadness. But of course there are exceptions. Below we have an article that got a lot of peoples attention – and for many a huge emotional connection.

Here is a great example of emotional viral content…

Remember Cecil the Lion

lion africa viral content

_______________________________________________________________________________________

how to write blog posts that go viral

Here is another emotional viral content example, again the story is from Metro

This is the story of a penguin that swims 5000 miles every day to meet the man who saved his life and has received over 800, 000 shares. In more recent times stories with cute animals and babies become cliche and fly off the shelf on the Internet.

share your content

This study made by Ipsos revealed that 61% of global users share interesting things, 43% funny and important things and only 29% share unique content.

Make people smile and you are on the right way to going viral. Write content that triggers positive emotions. Make sure that headlines are one of the first things that people see when viewing your content. Add a touch of curiosity and wonder to read content.

#4 “Create something people want to share” –  John Jantsch

You know well that being successful in content marketing, you need not only create unique content on a regular basis, but also be more creative. It’s high time to shake your content balance and make some experiments with different types of content you have never checked out before.

In my experience, most people really love list articles. Why? Because they provide a bunch of useful information, and they are easy to read and keep in mind. List posts look great when you are going to promote it on social networks like Facebook or Twitter. For research of interesting ideas, you can try out SE Ranking keyword suggestion tool.

People love numbers, and as we have mentioned many times on IncomeDiary –Top list posts attract visitors. For example, the post “27 Handy Tools for Better Visual Content Marketing on Content Marketing Institute received over 5.4K shares.

content marketing viral content

Adding images to your list posts can be an ideal format for boosting chances of shareability. List posts rich with graphics and images can get double shares and gain the interest of your target audience.

Lists of quotes in particular attract a lot of shares. Just make the quote relevant to your audience.

If for example your website is about Renewable Energy – create a list of famous quotes about renewable energy. Or if you are a photographer – a list of photography quotes or if you are an entrepreneur a list of entrepreneur quotes.

Here is a another example

viral posts on blog

For Viral Content – Quizzes also work!

Quizzes are another successful type of content that can encourage more users to share on social media. This approach works well if the result can be presented in a positive light. Take  look at this personalized quizz that has become the most shared post (over 2.5m shares) on  Play Buzz:

 share on social media

Easy-to-take quizzes can tell something about users and make them easy to share the results with friends on social media.

Don’t forget to create attractive headlines

We all know that viral posts can’t do without good headlines. How to do that? I like how BuzzFreed tests different headlines with A/B testing that helps them to find out the best options based on real audience interaction. You can take a look at the following elements before integrating into your headlines.

  • Type (video, facts, infographics, images, quotes and etc.)
  • Emotions (heart-warming stories, amusement, surprise, warnings, etc.)
  • Topics (trending topics)
  • Format (quizzes, list posts, tips, stories)

The truth is there is no perfect formula to make your content shareable but incorporate the above elements and your chances of success are greatly enhanced.

You will never know for sure whether your post will get a significant number of shares or will be ignored by target audience. In my experience, content creation is not so important as content amplification. And don’t forget, sharing content with 2-3 well-known influencers can sometimes be enough to provoke significant content sharing.

Remember that most people want to use your piece of content in order to make the lives of other people better. Your goal is just to make this process as easy as possible.
