00:09 🌱 Search intent is a critical SEO fundamental often overlooked or misunderstood by many SEOs. 00:44 💧 Search intent is like water for SEO - without aligning content with searcher intent, SEO efforts will fail. 01:10 😴 Laziness often leads SEOs to overlook search intent, opting for quick solutions instead of thorough analysis. 02:10 🔄 Search intent can change over time due to evolving interests, events, and Google's adaptations. 02:49 🧩 Searcher intent is nuanced, making it challenging to classify into broad categories, leading to difficulty in optimization. 04:04 🎯 Understanding search intent should guide content creation, improving search engine rankings and user conversion rates. 05:04 🖼 SERP features provide insights into searcher intent nuances, often overlooked but crucial for content strategy. 06:37 🧭 Analyzing SERP and top-ranking pages helps understand what content resonates with search intent, guiding content creation.

Hey dude. I am working with local businesses and I'd like to offer meta ads, google ads, web design and SEO. Most of these companies (kitchen and bathroom showrooms) are going to struggle to pay than any more than £2k to any agency for marketing. Is it worth me learning SEO so I can offer it? If so, what steps would you take to be able to deliver with a low budget? Thank you

Possibly. But can end up looking like PBN / blackhat links. Have to be careful about it.

When first page is filled with corporate sites, whether news, corp-owned niche site or social platforms, I guess these factors are just the age-old bread and circus. The most important factor is corporate. The only factor Google pushed since the Medic Update onward. Corp sites under the same hedge-funds umbrella Google sits.

You're making SEO more difficult than it is. SEO should have a plan that makes sense for the buyer persona you are trying to attract to the website. Follow that plan covering the top of the funnel, middle of the funnel, and bottom of funnel keywords. The site architecture is important in understanding search intent. Write a content then measure results.

Hello from Argentina! If "search intent" is so important, that justifies that all results in the SERPS are exactly the same. Write what is already ranking because that is what already satisfies "seach intent". If you write something different, you would not satisfy that intent.

@AhrefsCom Ай бұрын

Why would it be? -Helen

@DangerGirl.x Ай бұрын

I'm just confused about that's why I'm asking about it. I know that Google doesn't allow ad revenue for adult or mature content. When I search for erotic or erotica, they don't have the same questions asked in their searches so I was wondering if there are some restrictions for it. I'm not a porn creator, but I have adult content as in art nude, erotica and mild language in my stories so I was wondering if this would hurt how I get traffic in anyways. My content don't seem to be "adult" enough to get adult advertising, but its too "adult" to get advertising on some platforms. So I was wondering what I could do.@@AhrefsCom
