EDGE of the Web - The Best SEO Podcast for Today's Digital Marketer

Google is changing at a rapid pace - the top of the SERP doesn't even feature websites anymore! They have been replaced by knowledge graph and other assets. It seems like Google doesn't want to rank websites anymore, but why is that and what is actually going on?

Cindy is a regular conference speaker at conferences like MozCon and SMX and is a great follow on Twitter! Also, did you hear how much money Booking.com spent on digital advertising last quarter? Why is longer content performing better on YouTube and what will the future hold with voice assistants?

The marketing world is filled with advice and ideas from "thought leaders" but just because an "expert" says or writes something, that doesn't mean we should do it. Focusing on best practices from the experts could actually be harming your business and you don't even know it. Jay Acunzo, the founder of Unthinkable Media, says in his new book "Breaking the Wheel" says that what we should do instead is to act more like investigators and do what works best for our own companies. This podcast will share some of the questions you should ask in any situation to make the best decision, regardless of what the "experts" say.   Sponsor EDGE of the Web is brought to you by Site Strategics and they are offering to help you find out your digital marketing ROI.
