The SEO Landscape of 2015

Perhaps the hardest task in online marketing is the quick transition from one method to another to keep up with the fast-changing algorithms. Fortunately, Google doesn’t have any big change to announce this year. For most internet marketers, then, it’s business as usual.

Having a total market share of around 70 percent, Google definitely controls the wheel of online interaction, and the entire world watches with bated breath the changes it makes to its policy. A change that even Google has no direct control over, though, is the growing importance of mobile SEO and a host of other trends this year:

Mobile Marketing

As more people use mobile devices to browse the Internet, website owners must channel their investments to mobile marketing and creating responsive websites that allow end users to view and navigate their pages on any mobile device.

Local Listings

Local listing optimization will also become a popular tool for marketing SMEs. More firms will sign up for Google Places listings and more consumers will rely on it in locating the business/product/service they need. This should prompt companies to provide more relevant information about their business on the Web.

Quality Content
Lastly, links and keywords will be less important as ranking factors. Quality content is again king. If your webpages have high-quality content and visitors like it, Google will index your website so searchers of information about products and services like yours will easily find you.
