Hasta la vista, SEO! Apparently, search engine optimization (SEO) is dead…again. Well, that’s what some slimy sales guy wants you to think. Don’t worry, SEO is very much alive and well, according to our experts. What’s dead is outdated SEO tactics that don’t help you rank on the search engine results page (SERP). We’ll be giving away our search engine optimization secrets in our webinar on October 17th.

Why Is Search Engine Optimization Dead?

The SEO is dead trope keeps playing out and it’s a great sales tactic. It catches your eye, makes you click on articles and spend time on websites trying to sell you something. So, people keep using it as a hook to reel you in. Unless search engines and the internet go away, SEO will be important. As we mentioned above, old tactics are dying out as the major search engines like Google and Bing change the way they rank.
