Show Notes

  • 02:39
    Predictions for SEO in 2023
    Google is expected to release a core update at the beginning of the year, with a focus on mobile performance. This update may come in the first quarter of the year, possibly in March or April.
  • 03:50
    Why Google will be focusing on mobile performance in 2023
    The development community still has a desktop-first approach, leading to a lag in mobile performance. Google can influence webmasters and third-party platforms to improve mobile experiences with updates related to the mobile experience.
  • 05:29
    Expected changes to the Google search experience in 2023
    Changes to the search experience will likely focus on improving the filtering options for the travel category, and the E-A-T components of informative content sites. These changes may allow users to have more control over the information and sources shown in search results.
  • 07:25
    Increased content personalization in Google searches in 2023
    Google has already implemented personalized features such as Google Discover, which suggests content based on a user's interests and habits. In the future, these types of personalized features may be more prominent in everyday user searches.
  • 08:43
    Expected improvements to Google Search Console
    The hope is that Google will improve the crawl stats and crawl efficiency reports in Google Search Console. This information is currently located in a less visible section of GSC and should be improved to provide more clarity and actionable insights for the SEO community.
  • 10:18
    Expected growth and development of the SEO community in 2023
    The SEO community is expected to thrive in 2023, as advertising costs remain high and the future of first-party data is uncertain. SEO will likely be relied on more heavily, as budgets are cut and innovations in paid advertising may not happen as quickly.
