From Brand to Entity: Staying Ahead of the (Search Engine) Curve

Editor's Notes

  1. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeremybrooks/2473047860/
  2. http://www.flickr.com/photos/visualpanic/2192051338/“Bill Slawski: “Rather than just looking for brands, it’s more likely that Google is trying to understand when a query includes an entity – a specific person, place, or thing, and if it can identify an entity, that identification can influence the search results that you see.”
  3. http://www.flickr.com/photos/grand_canyon_nps/7553734530/
  4. Results with authorship markup get higher CTRs, more visibility and more page views. It’s an opportunity to build trust and establish authority quickly.
  5. Rod Powers is ranking for terms like “marines boot camp” “marines ranks” “marines mos” “marines reserve”. You should be owning these SERPs!
