Rob Bucci: From Keywords to Topics
29 NOV 2018 · One of the most significant shifts for SEOs, Google and searchers have been the transition from keyword-based queries to topical based queries. In response to this, search engines have had to think in terms of building up a general authority across an entire topic versus optimizing for specific keywords.
With this in mind, he suggested companies come up with creative ways to get in front of ‘search’ so that users come to them directly, as their trusted advisor, versus searching for answers externally. This can be accomplished through “brand imprinting” and education.
For developers, he suggests interacting with APIs so they can get comfortable with the idea of working with human language.

He talks about how entities have been a common theme in his blog posts resulting from his research on Google patents and how he is seeing the role of entities evolve. My favorite part of the interview is when Bill describes the entity IDs. Why? Well, because it is a tangible node in the knowledge graph and a centering point for defining things. It gets me thinking about who else can contribute to these IDs, will they become a standard, and if not, what will be the standard for entity IDs?

Aaron Bradley: Schema Markup and the Enterprise
8 MAR 2018 · Schema App’s CEO Martha van Berkel interviews Aaron Bradley from Electronic Arts on the topic of Schema.org and the Enterprise. Aaron Bradley shared many insights with his key take-away being:
"What the introduction first of Rich Snippets and then later of the Google knowledge graph really introduced into the search engine world is, as encapsulated by Google’s famous marketing phrase for the knowledge graph “from strings to things”, is that prior to the search engines weee essentially indexes of documents. So when you search for something, if you were looking for blue widget, you really weren’t getting results for things that were blue widgets, you were getting webpages that described or use the string the best blue widget."
"Whereas now, and especially since the interaction of the Google knowledge graph but also fueled by structured data, what we now have is a web of things kind of one of Tim Berner Lee’s great visions for the web, so that rather than being an index of documents, Google is increasingly becoming an index of things, and facts related to those things. You can’t possibly have that without those sort of linked data technologies working in the background including ontologies, schemas, taxonomy solve that sort of thing."
To get started in this journey in the Enterprise, Aaron suggests three steps.
1. Start with fundamentals. If you’re a webshop, look at search engine optimization with schema markup.
2. Then look at the possibility of bringing that data into your analytics (Semantic Analytics).
3. Connect all of the data points across the enterprise.
