I hope you are having a peaceful Good Friday. I would like to quickly share an awesome post on SEO that I came across lately.

Happy Good Friday

This is one from Quick Sprout, Neil Patel’s Blog – The 7 Harsh Realities of SEO.


Here is my favourite one. Personally, I always try to get the basics right:

Harsh Reality #2: The basics really do matter

Who cares about meta tags, right? Well, search engines do. This is the reason why Google Webmaster Central tells you how many duplicate titles and descriptions you have on your website.

Read the 6 other harsh realities here. Enjoy the day.
