Google recently announced that their Instant Search feature will no longer function on desktop. Although Google Instant Search was lauded when it was first released, changes in consumer behavior have led the search engine giant to reconsider its value.

B2B Software Twilio Sees 86% Increase in Traffic to Glossary Pages

Twilio uses the BrightEdge platform to target and track longtail targets and page speed enhancements

2
core SEO initiatives
86%
increase in traffic

THE PROBLEM

Twilio is a cloud communications platform-as-a-service (PaaS) company. Twilio allows software developers to programmatically make and receive phone calls and send and receive text messages using its web service APIs. The company's services are accessed over HTTP and are billed based on usage. In 2017, Ruiz decided to work on the longtail and page speed as 2 core SEO initiatives.

THE SOLUTION

Ruiz used Data Cube gap analysis vs. competitors to identify the topics to go after and distributed them to his extensive content producers using the Tasks feature in BrightEdge. His goal is to drive the page publishing cadence up from 5 to 10 per month to 40 or 50, so he needs to identify topics on an ongoing basis.

In addition, he initiated technical projects to enhance page load speed, which helps performance across the site. "The platform isolated a lot of issues on our site so that we can get a top performing site speed." He tracked results in StoryBuilder and elevated SEO by sharing dashboards with stakeholders and executives.

See Sam describe his projects in this video.

Future of SEO and Content Marketing Survey

More than 250 marketing leaders confirm the need to converge SEO and content marketing practices

The post-mobile world is here and it is providing marketers with new challenges for delivering results and meeting customer expectations. By 2020, over 50% of all consumers expect to use AI and voice-activated technology in their daily lives. Today, 30% of all mobile searches have location-intent, while 5G mobile speeds are predicted to further transform mobile search in the next three years.

A new survey released by BrightEdge, the leader in enterprise SEO and content performance marketing, reveals that marketers believe in a future ruled by the likes of Alexa, Artificial Intelligence (AI), voice search, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Yet, most in-house marketers and agency practitioners have done little to introduce these powerful components into their content marketing strategy.

BrightEdge surveyed 252 digital marketers at Fortune 500 brands that represent a split of B2B and B2C companies over a one-month period in April and May of 2017. The survey sought to understand how marketers are preparing for the accelerating consumer adoption of AI, voice search, and local search over the next year.
