Traditional SEO is Dead

Meta tag manipulation, text dumps and hijacked links are now a thing of the past (thankfully). Crafty web designers no longer have the power to take a simple search phrase (Ex: Horseback riding, texas) and bring you to a website selling their poorly made T-Shirts.

Over the years, search engines have been getting better at understanding searching from the users point of view, then making sure that businesses have their act together to give people relevant results.

With the power of updating content, landing pages, web 2.0 websites and friendly navigation, the internet has finally killed the Traditional SEO era. Now users are rarely going beyond the first page on search engines and actually finding what they wanted, as opposed to what web designers wanted.

The companies that are reaping the benefits from such advancements are ones that take SEO seriously and understand that a new breed of Marketing Management is needed for online advertising / searching. Search Engines have led the way into a much nicer world for the average user looking to ride a horse.

Happy searching.
