What’s Driving Google’s Title Tag Rewrites?

Why is Google rewriting title tags? In May, Google introduced a platform called Keras-based TF-Ranking which allowed for rapid prototyping, testing, and a rollout of new algorithms. It also allowed for rapid development, the distribution of Learning to Rank (LTR Models), and improvements of existing algorithms. This comes shortly after a series of updates to the People Also Ask (PAA) feature on Google. It’s likely that after Google retrieved the data from these interactions, they were able to better understand and judge the type of title tags searchers were actually clicking on and adjusted title tags accordingly.

Branded vs. Non-Branded Traffic: What’s the Difference?

Branded vs Non-Branded traffic is important to distinguish between when it comes to search strategies, especially targeting & attribution.

Keyword research plays a large role in search marketing. There’s plenty of debate over whether branded keywords are worth bidding on. If your brand is not well known or has a generic name then it may be worthwhile. This is why it is important to do your research for specific branded terms. Brand Canibalisation and conflicts are also important to consider. If you’re spending money on ads you want to make sure you’re certain where your traffic’s coming from so your dollars aren’t wasted. Finally, attribution is important to consider as it allows you to pinpoint what is driving search performance.

This article does a great job at highlighting the difference between the two and providing useful tips for identifying and segmenting brand traffic.

Website Design vs Website SEO: Which Is More Important? 

Designing a website that flows well and generates conversion is difficult enough; it becomes even more so when SEO becomes involved. The creative and SEO teams have to collaborate effectively to generate the right balance between imagery and text.

On the SEO side, it’s important to consider factors such as keywords on-page, load time & bounce rates, and local SEO. Luckily there are ways to creatively incorporate these so that your website design doesn’t suffer in the process, such as: using strategically placed and aesthetically pleasing programming, incorporating animations & load and scroll, or embedding a customized Google My Business map.
