Businesses will delve deeper into:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>what users\/customers are doing<\/li>\r\n<li>how they\u2019re behaving<\/li>\r\n<li>how products\/services can improve their lives<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This will help teams create more relevant, engaging content, and deliver a more tailored service overall.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Voice search optimization will help brands rank for hands-free queries<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Smartphones, virtual assistants, and smart speakers have transformed search across the past couple of years. Users can get the number for their nearest Mexican restaurant, find local shoe stores, and browse media without having to physically interact with their devices.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>And this is expected to grow even more popular in 2021, with around <a href=\"https:\/\/marketingland.com\/roughly-1-in-4-u-s-adults-now-owns-a-smart-speaker-according-to-new-report-273994\">one in four American adults<\/a> owning a smart speaker. That means businesses of all sizes will need to optimize content for voice search more effectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It\u2019s not just voice search optimization that will matter more in the new year, either \u2026<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>More detailed image search optimization to increase visibility<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Many consumers may not even realize image search exists, let alone use it regularly. But images are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.socialmediatoday.com\/news\/why-visual-search-will-be-one-of-the-biggest-digital-marketing-trends-of-20\/545999\/\">returned for around 20 percent<\/a> of Google searches. It\u2019s also believed that brands redesigning websites to support visual search (along with voice search) could boost their revenue by 30 percent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>That\u2019s why brands should be optimizing their images to help increase their visibility in 2021.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Featured snippets will become a more competitive SEO technique<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Featured snippets are a common sight, and they\u2019re an effective way to achieve first-page results. But only if you have the right information for the right query.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Brands should start to optimize content to answer questions and provide clear directions or advice when relevant. This increases the chance of displaying a featured snippet and, potentially, securing the user\u2019s click.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Increasingly comprehensive mobile SEO for a better user experience<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Mobile sites are the first port of call for countless users, with mobile accounting for around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/277125\/share-of-website-traffic-coming-from-mobile-devices\/\">50 percent of global internet traffic<\/a> in 2020\u2019s third quarter. This is likely to keep increasing as smartphones become more advanced and capable of delivering a better user experience.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Brands will need to focus more on creating the most user-friendly mobile site they can, rather than simply making it functional on smartphones. That means understanding what visitors want out of your site and how your web design can make that as easy as possible on <em>any <\/em>device.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Refining your SEO strategy to align with new trends or even starting from scratch can be a challenge for any business or organization. But our Orange County SEO experts are here to help you boost your rankings, visibility, and engagement through tailored campaigns.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nettsolutions.com\/\">Get in touch now to learn more!<\/a><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New SEO trends emerge each year, but what can you expect to see in 2021?
