6 Search engine optimization has changed A couple of years ago SEO was dominated by Black Hat activities including buying links from around the net. Google s Panda and Penguin updates basically wiped out all the Black Hat stuff. Scraping content from other people s websites and putting it on your own site. Google is in the business of providing excellence search results for people who are doing searches. People that did things correctly were penalized and couldn t win. Google is focused on the user experience. They are trying to deliver exactly what it is that the user is looking for.

7 The need to create original content After the Panda and Penguin update and another update called Hummingbird, it was all about the need to create original content. Google is trying to identify who are the industry experts in different segments. Google scores original content highly. It needs to be created and distributed throughout authoritative sites on the internet These are sites that Google uses as signals to say These are quality places for that content to be shown.

8 Hub and spoke model. The hub is the original content that you create The spokes are the authoritative sites that Google recognizes on which the content is found In the case of us doing this interview - a YouTube video placing, it on YouTube is a signal that Google values because they own it. If you re-purpose some of that content and add supporting slides and activities, you could put it on SlideShare. If you translate the actual audio that is created into a white paper PDF that could be put it on either LinkedIn or a blog on your own website. And if you take just the audio portion of the activities, you can put it on itunes. So you ve got itunes, LinkedIn, SlideShare, and YouTube - You can even chop it up and dribble bits of on Twitter. All of these sites that consider authoritative by Google and they impact the signal.

9 Will Google penalize if the same content is copied everywhere? Not when the content is physically re-purposed. An audio on itunes with a video on YouTube from the same source material will be recognized by Google Google will give credit back to the author s site Google is good at recognizing the original author of content. It is that clever. Panda and Penguins updates drove this improvement People that rewrite somebody else s content (even if they change 20-30% of it), Google will still identify that it is plagiarism and will not index it.

10 It IS possible to do SEO in a way that causes Google to penalize you! Beware the silver bullet of SEO which is whatever the new tool is that somebody s marketing for $97 saying it will do all this great stuff. It is being watched by Google! Google actually watches the signals. They ve got 200 signals 10 to 20 of those are being modified every week. If google sees that a hundred back links showed up on your site yesterday, they ll know that was done by a machine, not a person. There are applications that allow you to schedule and release data into social media Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn and that s not overly penalized because again, Google will identify that it is all from the same author. It s just being put on different distribution channels.

11 Bill Gates Content is King - Absolutely still true Writing your first blog post is exciting, Writing the second one is a bit of a chore, Writing the third one is painful. This penalizes a small business because they re all wearing multiple hats and juggling everything and now they re got to be content creators. Not everybody is very good with the written word. And then the expectation of polishing the top and tailing of text and graphics and everything else It s an onerous task for small businesses.
