TL;DR (yet – will go on my gravestone, probably) – but interpretations of Google’s ‘helpful content update‘ are to the liking of my Human side. The Content Creator side will have to have a think, but I’ve certainly never been comfortable with key word chasing with no added value to the reader – what’s the point? It doesn’t help your brand if you’re just regurgitating content on the same topic as your competitors, without adding your angle. And if your company doesn’t have an angle then you’ve got alot of work to do – if you can’t articulate a ‘why us’ then how is a prospect supposed to choose you over the rest?
“You’ve got nothing to say and you’re saying it too loud” – as the quote goes from The Krays. And I will read the full Google update but if you haven’t had enough caffeine yet either, this GSQI blog is really, well – helpful 🙂
