Search Marketing in a Social World

Originally, the internet was thought of as a discovery tool—Search this. Find that. However with the recent rise of social channels, the web has begun to reinvent itself as a collaboration network—Post this. Reshare that.

As our digital behaviors continue to evolve, so do the ways we interact with the web at a social level. For marketers, it’s vital to understand how things like user-generated content, knowledge graphs, and social referral sources can (and continue) to affect SEO and brand visibility.
