What do you visualize when we talk about Google ranking factors? Or Google’s algorithm?

The search landscape is changing as searches focus more on semantic relationships, context and user experience.
Today, Google uses a combination of algorithms, machine learning and ongoing updates to curate search results
We have to prepare for RankBrain, Deep Learning and AI technology to run search by doing the work the right way
We have to understand that the definition of a search engine has changed
Proactive suggestions leverage your website content or voice skills/apps
And that’s on top of other signals like location and personalization
As SEOs we’re facing some big questions: How are artificial intelligence and machine learning impacting search? How do we optimize for non-traditional search engines like Pinterest, Amazon, and voice? What does this evolution mean for the future of search marketers?
The Answer:Rethink your SEO strategies & tactics.
If you only take away 1 thing from my talk today, I want it to be this idea that the most effective strategies will be the result of changing our approach to think through the lens of optimizing for consumer discovery as opposed to optimizing for traditional search. This is how we bridge the gap and take a human-centered approach with strategies that aren’t about us or selling products, and aren’t focused on chasing Google’s algorithms, but rather focused on adding value.

How to Optimize for Consumer Discovery vs. Traditional Optimization Tactics
Traditional ranking factors are still important, but we’re talking about optimizing for humans
Today, we’re optimizing for those foundational elements as well as RankBrain – which is what we’re focusing on today
So we’re optimizing less for traditional ranking inputs like keywords, anchor text, pgae speed, etc. and really focusing more on those searcher outputs
quick on-page optimization tactics are no longer sufficient to obtain top positions in the search results, especially if the website contain
Google is now honing in on the reputation and credibility of both the website itself, as well as the creators who contribute to its content. I
Authority Rules: Optimizing for EAT (Beyond “Produce Great Content”)

Deeper expertise shared via robust and unique articles will win the rankings battle everytime
Capturing User Attention with On-SERP Optimization: SERP Features & Ranking in the Knowledge Graph
Published in late 2018
Thankfully
SERP features are near universal and massively impact click through rates
These features have evolved into an interactive first impression of your company, for both branded and non-branded queries
We need to take the same approach to optimizing branded SERPs to increase visibility
Your New Homepage is Off-page
Even if you’re national/global.
NAP, photos, reviews, Google Posts, Questions & Answers
Then add other data that makes sense.
Are you a restaurant? Add your menu.
Can a customer make an appointment? Add a link.
Brand knowledge panels on Bing & Google largely rely on Wikipedia for the content they display
Claim it!
Suggest edits
Add organization schema to your site
Name your social profiles
Posts appear on the brand panel
They last 7 days (then they move to the recent posts tab on the panel)
They can be used to highlight events, blog posts, products, offers or announcements
This is potentially the least understood feature of the local knowledge panel
-----
Ultimately, all of these on-serp optimizations add value for consumers and tie back to that human centered approach by reducing friction for smaller conversions, like calls, and building out trust signals to make decisions easier
Optimizing for search and virtual assistants
Voice Search & Voice answers are different - A machine that responds with a single, audio answer vastly changes the marketing landscape and how we optimize for that and especially measure that is a bit of a black hole.
So what we’re focusing on is a device that still shows options on a screen of results (like most Google Voice searches on mobile or desktop device)
Google queries related to locating services or businesses primarily pull from the local search pack,
results for purely informational voice queries are primarily pulled from featured snippets.

SPEAKABLE moved out of pending – it’s official as of late march / early April
Google’s recognition still says in beta, but on schema.org it is officially published
The support for this new markup is currently limited to News content. However, it is likely that support for the speakable attribute will inevitably expand as Google gains experience with this new structured data markup.
Alexa provides answers using a combination of search results and skills and has significantly more gaps in the accuracy and availability of results.
Despite gaps in the smart assistant’s knowledge, Alexa does pull some answers from high-ranking pages and content
Like Google Actions, the primary purpose of Alexa’s Skills is to provide a solution to a problem or question, and direct informational queries toward Arrow’s customer funnel.
Taking a human-centered approach is not about us or selling products, and isn’t focused on chasing Google’s algorithms, but rather focused on adding value for consumers
The future of SEO is in optimizing for authority, discoverability and voice capabilities
