The presentation agenda includes considering search engine results pages, predicting changes, opportunities in voice search, developing a data-driven plan, and using the KICC Method to understand user intent. The KICC Method is a four-step approach involving keyword mapping, intention analysis, click-through rate optimization, and content gap analysis.

Will Scott, CEO of Search Influence, gave a presentation on how local businesses can build their brand through PR, social media, and local engagement. He discussed how brands create trust, credibility and recognition. He provided examples of small, local brands that have successfully built their brand identity through consistent messaging, audience engagement, online reviews, and influencer marketing. Scott also presented case studies of how Tulane University's School of Professional Advancement used PR and content marketing tactics to build awareness of its career-focused programs for adults and veterans.
These days, almost all discussion of local search revolves around GMB. However, this is a concept that needs to change. As more searches crave more local results, Google will continue to deliver those across its platform. How do you increase your search market share beyond GMB? And just what do you do with GMB after you have exhausted your options?
Creating a successful content strategy is really hard. Competition is growing and Google continuously refines its understanding of relevance and authority.

External Links = A Ranking Factor?
62. https://www.mattcutts.com/blog/pagerank-sculpting/
- John Mueller, Sept 25, 2015
…links from your site to other people’s sites
isn’t specifically a ranking factor. But it can
bring value to your content and that in turn
can be relevant for us in search.
External Links = Not a Ranking Factor!?
74. …you certainly can sculpt your PageRank. I wouldn’t necessarily do
it with the nofollow tag…
When people talk about PageRank sculpting, they tend to think
nofollow and all that sort of stuff, but in some sense the ways you
choose to create your site–your site architecture–and how you link
between your pages is a type of PageRank sculpting.
