Approx. 4 billion search queries are started on a daily basis – 15 % of those have never been
made before.
The effects of RankBrain can only be assumed. It’s expected, that search results will become
more personalized due to RankBrain’s learning ability. The meaning of rankings will diminish
because of the personalization of the search results.
RankBrain is a self-learning algorithm, which is why prescribed ranking factors are expected
to become obsolete.

Movie Time!
A sensitive and soulful man earns a
living by writing personal letters for
other people. Left heartbroken after
his marriage ends, Theodore (Joaquin
Phoenix) becomes fascinated with a
new operating system which
reportedly develops into an intuitive
and unique entity in its own right. He
starts the program and meets
"Samantha" (Scarlett Johansson),
whose bright voice reveals a sensitive,
playful personality. Though "friends"
initially, the relationship soon deepens
into love.

INDIRECTLY A CONTRIBUTOR FACTOR
SEO has far less to do with content and words than people think. Google ranks sites based on the experience people have
with brands. If a bot can enhance that experience in such a way that people are more enthusiastic about a site – they
share it, return to it, talk about it, and spend more time there, it will affect positively how the site appears in Google.

Conversational
Search
When You Search for Something on the Internet, you ask Google and it Gives it to
you… or not. What if the thing you’re looking for is a little more complicated?
What if you’re looking for something precise but don’t know what exactly?
Conversational Search is a revolution for brands because it means they could
interact with their clients automatically, whether it’s for customer care, selling a
product, or handling a subscription. A conversational search device can answer
questions, ask new ones, make offers, propose options.
Conversational Search enables a back and forth between you and your Search
engine, allowing it to help you find precisely what you are looking for, offering
you new products and, in time, contacting people for you, making a purchase,
reserving a seat on an airplane.

Transparency
BLOCKCHAINBlockchain is much more than just a buzz, however, and it’s
becoming very apparent it has the power to change the way
business is done in nearly every industry — from banking to SEO.

Verify Product
Authenticity.
Because it uses an immutable ledger
system, customers will be able to
verify the legitimacy of a product back
through the retailer or auction house
to the manufacturer and supplier.

Avoid Fake News.
You can check if the review came from
someone at a valid IP address, other
reviews they had published, and an
indication that the reviewers identity
had been verified.

Additional Method to
Collect Data.
Websites could record data, analyse

transparently.

AR CONTACT LENSES
M E A N W H I L E I N 2 0 2 2 … AR devices track a wealth of data about what wearers see, say and do – and Google and
other search engines are now using that data to measure what they’ve been after all along:
user attention.
Better yet, search engine marketers now have access to data about user responses. Google
Analytics just added a new section, “Expressions,” which has a slew of awesome new
metrics. Not only can SEMs track the amount of time users spend looking at a page, but also
see data about users’ reaction to content – including my favourite metric, the percentage of
people who roll their eyes after viewing an ad.
Google is under fire for giving advertisers access to more biometric data from users. Now, in
addition to heart rate and perspiration, marketers will gain access to real-time
electroencephalograph (EEG) measurements in order to gauge the effectiveness of ads.
In-Real-Life (IRL) Remarketing programs are popping up in malls all across the country.
Software tracks and monitors shoppers, and decides what deals and specials to advertise to
them. All this happens automatically, without any human having access to personal data.

VR
I’m reminded of the early ’00s, when cell phones seemed to go from
novelty to necessity overnight. But no one suspected how quickly
mobile AR would become so ubiquitous.

We as humans are
lifted to a higher state
of awareness due to
technology and
personalization, we
can achieve much
bigger things then we
ever imagined
possible.
Personalise
Personalize your
marketing efforts and
experiences, each one
of us is unique and
wants the companies
we buy from to
celebrate that.
Focus on Users
Build a strategy that
is ready from the
core to adapt to a
future which is truly
controlled by each
and every user.
Invest in Yourself
We need to keep on
learning in this ever
changing industry!

If a bot can enhance that experience in such a way that people are more enthusiastic about a site – they share it, return to it, talk about it, and spend more time there, it will affect positively how the site appears in Google.

  • 25. PreviousNext 25 Conversational Search When You Search for Something on the Internet, you ask Google and it Gives it to you… or not. What if the thing you’re looking for is a little more complicated? What if you’re looking for something precise but don’t know what exactly? Conversational Search is a revolution for brands because it means they could interact with their clients automatically, whether it’s for customer care, selling a product, or handling a subscription. A conversational search device can answer questions, ask new ones, make offers, propose options. Conversational Search enables a back and forth between you and your Search engine, allowing it to help you find precisely what you are looking for, offering you new products and, in time, contacting people for you, making a purchase, reserving a seat on an airplane.

  • 36. PreviousNext 36 AR CONTACT LENSES M E A N W H I L E I N 2 0 2 2 … AR devices track a wealth of data about what wearers see, say and do – and Google and other search engines are now using that data to measure what they’ve been after all along: user attention. Better yet, search engine marketers now have access to data about user responses. Google Analytics just added a new section, “Expressions,” which has a slew of awesome new metrics. Not only can SEMs track the amount of time users spend looking at a page, but also see data about users’ reaction to content – including my favourite metric, the percentage of people who roll their eyes after viewing an ad. Google is under fire for giving advertisers access to more biometric data from users. Now, in addition to heart rate and perspiration, marketers will gain access to real-time electroencephalograph (EEG) measurements in order to gauge the effectiveness of ads. In-Real-Life (IRL) Remarketing programs are popping up in malls all across the country. Software tracks and monitors shoppers, and decides what deals and specials to advertise to them. All this happens automatically, without any human having access to personal data.
