How to be a Problem Solving SEO

These days everyone is talking about the overlap between SEO and marketing. Are SEOs marketers? If you ask me, they most certainly are – but we live in a world where SEO is a separate team with separate KPIs than the marketing team for many brands. If we’re going to prove our value to people who may have minimal knowledge in the technical side of what we do, SEOs need to be problem solvers.
      A problem-solving SEO is someone who can pull and interpret data like nobody’s business, while understanding what makes their users tick at the same time. An SEO who can balance the qualitative and quantitative aspects of our day-to-day jobs will be the SEO who is respected among her “marketing” peers and executes campaigns that fill both technical and experiential voids for users. There are a few key steps to take if you want to achieve Problem-Solving SEO status.

How to Do Unintentional Link Building

During a Portuguese video chat earlier this month, Google’s Diogo Botelho made some confusing remarks about links. He said that webmasters should never ask for links. Originally, the statement was translated as, “webmasters should not buy, sell, exchange or ask for links.” The part about not even asking for links created quite a stir in the SEO community. Google later clarified that webmasters shouldn’t “Buy, sell or ask for links that may violate our linking webmaster guidelines.”
      Google Webmaster Guidelines says, “Any links intended to manipulate PageRank or a site’s ranking in Google search results may be considered part of a link scheme and a violation of Google’s Webmaster Guidelines.” The big problem: the word “intended” is still part of that statement.
