searches on a more intelligent
understanding of searches, not only
keywords matching!

touch, with results clustered on cards so you
can focus on the answers you’re looking.“

13. Mobile
Life is getting mobile, so do Google.
“Create conversational content. With more
users searching on their mobile device with
voice searches, think about how a user
would verbally search for something and do
your best to tailor content accordingly.“

deliver useful answers for specific and more
complex queries.

specific needs, Google will recognize this
and see your content as being highly
relevant.

…Comes social networks!
“Where can I eat chinese within a 5 mile
radius? (query with 8 keywords!)
Google knows your friends Jonny and Mike
like Siam Chinese 6 miles from here, why
don’t you go there? And after you can stop
for dessert at Menchies since you love
frozen yogurt.”
