How Helpful Content changes your SEO strategies — Jordan Koene // Previsible

Jordan Koene, PreVisible CEO and Co-Founder, discusses the Google helpful content update. As SEOs, we’re no strangers to readjusting our strategies and tactics when Google releases an algorithm update. The Google helpful content update is Google’s way of ensuring we’re not publishing useless content, but it’s going to also require that we look keenly at the data points we’re using to determine which content is useful. Today, Jordan talks about how the helpful content update should change your SEO strategies.

    Modifying SEO strategies to mitigate the negative impact of the helpful content update
    Rather than thinking about content as isolated, we should be thinking about the entire ecosystem of our pages. Ideally, we should be thinking about the intention and experiences a page is meant to cultivate.

Quotes

  • "We need to be thinking about the entire ecosystem of our pages and not just about content as an isolated facet of a page; really start to comprehend what's the full intention of a page." -Jordan Koene, CEO, PreVisible

  • "You're likely going to rebound from a helpful content update by removing components that provide no benefit to users." -Jordan Koene, CEO, PreVisible

  • "If you're seeing parts of your site suffer and those parts are not highly relevant to your core business, take a step back and evaluate regardless of what happens with this update." -Jordan Koene, CEO, PreVisible

  • "Sites that embed reviews from third-party sources have been suffering now for quite a while because Google's been on a very specific attack of useless and irrelevant reviews." -Jordan Koene, CEO, PreVisible

  • "A lot of websites should explore whether the strategy theyre using to produce content is an effective one and whether the data points being used to create content are useful." -Jordan Koene, CEO, PreVisible
