How do you optimize a blog post for SEO after the RankBrain?
-
Hi Guys
Just curious to hear what you guys do to rank blog posts in the top in Google especially onsite, after the RankBrain update? Do you still use SEO tools to optimize this or are the SEO tools outdated for this? If yes which tools do you use to get success with?
Cheers
John

I am also doing SEO using rank brain psychology. The website is totally based on the Panda helper.
Other things that I want to mention are mcdvoice con, iosemus, blacksheep and hipstore.
Can I track the ranking when applying for rankbrain technique.

SEO tools are still invaluable. There is dozens of factors that you have to get right, so seo tools audit your site and keep you informed. Tech is more complicated than people think, an update breaks something etc etc. So seo tools have there place. That said marketing and seo are merging, so that is another factor. The starting point is x10 content then optimising and creating shareable content.
Hope that helps.

Thanks Don. So to give you more details, we want to rank for popular keyword phrases for a specific topic. So my question is whether you really need an SEO tool nowadays to check for keyword density, how many times the phrase was used etc
Isn't the key to focus on the user first and less so optimizing based on these seo tools.

It is too broad a question to answer in detail. Rank Brain is about optimising the customer experience etc. So the best starting point is the quality of content.
This is still a great WBF on content - that will cover any rank brain concerns..

So, in short, yes, we still use plenty of tools, from GA to Moz, and many more.
Hope that helps.

Is it necessary to have unique H1's for pages in a pagination series (i.e. blog)?
A content issue that we're experiencing includes duplicate H1 issues within pages in a pagination series (i.e. blog). Does each separate page within the pagination need a unique H1 tag, or, since each page has unique content (different blog snippets on each page), is it safe to disregard this? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

Best way to handle outdated & years old Blog-posts?
Hi all, We have almost 1000 pages or posts from our blog which are indexed in Google. Few of them are years old, but they have some relevant and credible content which appears in search results. I am just worried about other hundreds of non-relevant posts which are years old. Being hosting hundreds of them, our website is holding lots of these useless indexing pages which might be giving us little negative impact of keeping non-ranking pages. What's the best way to handle them? Are these pages Okay? Or must be non-indexed or deleted? Thanks
