However, what will make the difference is mobile. More than 80% internet users own a smartphone. And with maximum online search queries through mobile, you\u2019ll have to make sure that your website is super compatible with all the available smartphone operating systems. So while you check for the SEO trends, be ready with your up to date website!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. You shall create Micro-content<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_852\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-852\" style=\"width: 517px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-852\" src=\"https:\/\/theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/normal.jpeg\" alt=\"Create micro content for SEO.

The main reason for their popularity is entertaining\/informative nature yet quick to see. As more and more people spend lesser time on a page, it is only smart to create content that\u2019s concise and to the point. Make short content for your audience. And keep in mind that the content you make should be dynamic, i.e. can be switched from one device\/media to another. It is observed that a lot of people shuffle between multiple devices. So design and your content that\u2019s adaptive.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. You shall listen to Voice Search<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_864\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-864\" style=\"width: 583px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-864\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/voicesearch.jpg\" alt=\"Voice search will increase in 2017.

Nowadays smartphone is used as a company while doing your other chores such as driving or cooking. This is where the voice search comes in play. Google states that it is now 95% accurate in recognising the voice commands. So while understanding the way people voice &#8211; search will be different than when they type. So you\u2019ll have to create your content accordingly. The functioning of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsedigital.com\/search-engine-optimization\">SEO services<\/a> will change because of this!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. You shall make your brand Live the moment<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_866\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-866\" style=\"width: 381px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-866\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Crpr234XEAAZ2Yt.jpg\" alt=\"Go live and let your brand be present in the moment.

As the platforms like Snapchat, Instagram Stories, and Facebook Live is getting popular, people are living up the moments on social media. Yes, your brand should definitely make high-quality artworks and videos for communication, but when the time comes, you shouldn\u2019t forget to go live and live up the moment with your customers. Celebrate with them, talk with them. Enjoy the moment; that will give your brand a more human touch.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. You shall incorporate Influencer Marketing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_867\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-867\" style=\"width: 541px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-867\" src=\"https:\/\/theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/influencer-marketing001.png\" alt=\"Influencer Marketing.

Word of mouth publicity always works better than any other media. And in the\u00a0digital age, that is being replicated by influencers. The bloggers, YouTubers and the likes that are loved by your target group should be roped in for achieving your marketing objectives. However, be very careful <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/perfect-social-media-influencer\/\">while choosing an influencer<\/a> for your brand. The new Twitter guidelines have strict policies when it comes to influencers and the way your brand is being marketed. Ghost-banning is rising. It means the influencers may still be active but not visible to the users. This means brand-created trends may decrease a lot!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>6. Virtual Reality<\/strong><\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"imgur-embed-pub\" lang=\"en\" data-id=\"bQMj8tT\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/imgur.com\/bQMj8tT\">View post on imgur.com<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/s.imgur.com\/min\/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>You must have seen a VR video launched by Tata Tiago car featuring Lionel Messi earlier this year. It is speculated that 2017 is going to be the year of Virtual reality. The users love to see the product inside out and VR offers exactly that. It has more conviction than a regular picture or a video! VR would be a great step in this year&#8217;s SEo trends as well as gaming and entertainment industry. The live concerts or game may get viewed using VR. And you never know, you might experience sitting beside your favourite contestant in Big Boss in the\u00a0next season!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>7. You shall strive to offer the best User Experience<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_870\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-870\" style=\"width: 538px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-870\" src=\"https:\/\/theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/User-Interface.jpg\" alt=\"User Interface.

And it\u2019s brand&#8217;s duty to offer the best experience to the king. Constantly enhancing user experience will keep you in the good books (or web pages) of the users. So make sure that when they visit your website, it results in your marketing goal. Make sure that the basic boxes are checked right that includes having original high-quality content, seamless navigation, fast page-loading speed and so on.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>8. Semantic SEO trends\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_871\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-871\" style=\"width: 476px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-871\" src=\"https:\/\/theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/semantic-web-90-days.png\" alt=\"Semantic SEO. Image credits - aequalis\" width=\"476\" height=\"274\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-871\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image credits &#8211; aequalis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Google is getting wiser with age and search results are no more just about the keyword or specific phrases. So while you do your keyword research, keep an eye on what creates that topic you\u2019re targeting on. That is called Semantics. You know that Keyword stuffing can get your site penalised, but just focusing on the keyword in a permissible amount won\u2019t do any good either. Rather than matching the exact keywords while presenting the results, Google looks up for the phrases that makes up the topic. In 2017, you need to focus on topics rather than keywords while prepping for the SEO trends.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>9. You shall use Long-tail keywords more often<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_872\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-872\" style=\"width: 469px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-872\" src=\"https:\/\/theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/long-tail-keywords.jpg\" alt=\"Use long tail keywords.

Image credits &#8211; seositecheckup.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When you search Olive Green Cotton Trouser and get the results, which link do you click on &#8211; the one which says best and cheapest cotton trousers or the one which has Olive Green Cotton Trouser? Obviously the later, right? That\u2019s exactly the benefit of long-tail keywords; the search volume for these might be less, but the conversion rate is 2.5 times higher than the broader \/ vague terms. And as mentioned about the growth of voice search, <a href=\"http:\/\/backlinko.com\/long-tail-keywords\">long tail keywords<\/a> will gain more value because when we give a voice command, we tend to speak and entire sentence rather than a few words!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>10. You shall focus on building customer relationships than links<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_873\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-873\" style=\"width: 511px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-873\" src=\"https:\/\/theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/shutterstock_186060851.jpg\" alt=\"Customer relationship is important.

Focus on customers, your business is because of them. So before your link-building activities, try customer relationship \u2013 building. Once you have the loyal customers\/users, you will not have to worry about link building as they will be promoting your business (indirectly). So keep the human touch of your digital communication intact and focus on people!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-4738 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='4738' data-nonce='44ecc9b972' rel='nofollow'><img src='https:\/\/www.theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' alt='like-post' \/><span class='lc-4738 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-4738 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='4738' data-nonce='44ecc9b972' rel='nofollow'><img src='https:\/\/www.theimpulsedigital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-4738 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-4738 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
