How would Machine Learning Change the SEO Reality


In movies, the years around 2020 are usually shown as very futuristic, with incredible new technologies, humanoid robots, holographs, and so on. While we are still not quite there yet, some technologies, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning have already found a way into our lives, but in a much less dramatic way. For instance, Google has rolled out its machine-learning algorithm, called Rankbrain, less than two years ago, which has caused some changes in the SEO industry. Now, SEO specialists have become used to changes by now, since SEO has grown from simple keyword insertion and link building to providing great content, good user experience, and mobile friendliness, among other things.

In addition to RankBrain, which ranks as the third-most important SEO factor, there is also voice search. Those two alone have caused huge shifts in everyone’s SEO strategy, because you simply cannot ignore them. In order to help you navigate the ever-changing SEO landscape, we have analyzed all the ways in which machine learning will change SEO reality. Keep on reading.

1. Content Quality Will Become a Priority

Although this has been a claim for the past decade or so, it is about to become a reality. How so? Well, since 2015, Google has been testing a new AI technology called DeepMind. DeepMind analyzes natural language and enables AI to understand and learn like a human being. This means Google will pretty soon be able to tell whether your content is good or not. As SEOs, you should be less concerned about the technical aspects of SEO. Instead, you should focus on satisfying user intent. This means that your content need to give them the information or a solution they were looking for.

If your audience is diverse, your content will need to answer a wide range of problems for people which are vastly different, and are probably at different points of the purchasing process. This will not only affect the way you will need to phrase and write your content, but also how you will go about designing, linking, and structuring it, among other things. If your content does not succeed in this, AI algorithms will rank your page lower, probably within 24 hours.

2. Good User Experience Will Become Essential

Whereas the technical aspect of SEO will probably be of lesser importance in the future, user experience factors will definitely become more significant. Google currently analyzes factors like click-through rate and user engagement and views them as clear indicators of user experience. Higher click-through rates and engagement equal good user experience, but Google’s machine algorithm will continue to develop, which means they will be able to experience websites in the same manner as human beings do. As a result, artificial intelligence will be able to analyze user experience momentarily and rank it according to that.

According to SEO experts from MyMathDone, you will need to pay attention to UX weak spots. In addition to the two factors we have listed above, you will also have to make sure that your website’s loading speed is fairly quick. If a user has to wait for a long time in order to access your content, then Google will pick up on it and take it down a few notches in terms of ranking.

3. Links and On-Page Factors Will Not Matter as Much

Machine learning algorithms will be able to figure out a lot of stuff on their own. This means that factors like title tags, meta descriptions links, and alt text will not be as crucial as they are now. They won’t become irrelevant, but your SEO will depend on them a lot. You will no longer be able to come up with a strategy by going through a checklist of practices, which usually don’t include factors like content or design.

Google’s AI will also be able to identify websites which rely on black and gray hat SEO practices, and will either penalize them or remove them from the results altogether. Paid links will become easy to identify, as well. Even when it comes to organic links, which are the key ranking factor at the moment, the situation will be different. Because machine learning algorithms will be able to understand the content, organic links will no longer carry the same weight. Currently, they are more or less proof that your website features good content, but Google will be able to determine that on its own in the future.

4. Technical Aspects Will Be Handled by AI

Today’s SEO includes factors like sitemaps and robots.txt file, but in the next couple of years or so, it will become something that will be handled by machines. That isn’t to say that no human input will be required at all. Technical expertise will still be required, since Google is bent on having websites implement stuff like Accelerated Mobile Pages, voice search, and structured data. Voice search is blowing up right now, and if you want your content to show up inside the featured snippet, which is read by voice assistants, you will need to provide structured data.

Otherwise, AI won’t be able to do much without it. This means you will need to add a schema markup to your website. While that’s complex to do, you will see the benefits in the shape of better click-through rates and higher ranking. Technical knowledge will remain a plus, even though you won’t have to do all this technical stuff.

5. Visual Design Will Be More Valuable

Better design contributes to a more pleasant user experience in more ways than one. There is the subjective aspect of it, since people will perceive your brand or business as more reputable because of great design. But, there is the more palpable aspect, too. For instance, if you feature plenty of images, video, typography, or infographics on your website, they will become more engaged. Also, a subtle use of colors and formatting can make all the difference, especially on mobile devices.

6. You Will Need to Reduce the Number of Clicks

One of the things that counts toward a good user experience is least possible number of steps a user has to make before they can get what they came for. For instance, if you are having them jump through hoops in order to register to your website, they will most likely leave during the process. Also, you need to optimize your forms and online transactions, so that it takes only a couple of minutes for the user to finish the procedure.

7. Lower Costs

Lower costs usually mean good news, from a business point of view, but not if you are an SEO specialist in this case. Seeing as AI will be able to handle a lot of the SEO work on its own, less SEO personnel will be required. Communications will also become cheaper, as users will receive automatic emails, and read scheduled posts.

Conclusion

Thanks to machine learning algorithms, SEO is about to undergo its biggest change yet. While some of the technical stuff will become easier, it will become more difficult to provide a good user experience, and you won’t be able to outsmart algorithms anymore. But, as with any other new technology, there will be benefits you will be able to use to your advantage.

How to make profit through Bitcoins

If you’ve got money lying around, usually the best thing to do is invest it, to turn it into even more money. In fact, maybe the reason you own bitcoins in the first place is because you expect their value to go up, so you invested in bitcoin.

You might think of your bitcoin wallet like your bank account. You can access it from your computer or phone and send money with it. However, there is one key difference- interest. At least before the 2008 financial crisis, receiving interest on your bank savings was normal. Your bank was lending out your funds and sharing some of the profits with you.

Bitcoin can earn interest in the exact same way if you’re willing to let it out of your wallet.

The price of bitcoin more than doubled in 2016, and may well keep rising (on February 28th, you could trade 1 bitcoin for $1200 according to CEX.io exchange). But, you can earn even more by
investing and earning interest on your bitcoins. If the price does go up, you’ll have a nice double whammy investment with very high returns. Although, just like all investments, some are safe
and some are risky.

Here are some of the ways you can get started investing your cryptocurrency for profit.

Day Trading
Image Credits: 30btc.com
Day trading is a very popular way of investing, and not just for bitcoin. The foreign exchange market is huge, and there are thousands of companies that specialize in profiting from
predicting if the prices will go up or down.

The idea is to buy low, sell high. You can do this by selling your bitcoins when you think they are overvalued. Then, you just buy them back at a profit when the price comes down. As the price
of bitcoin is influenced by various factors, you need some experience to make predictions. If you can spot the trend and guess when it will pop, you can make a lot of money.

Some people are hugely successful at this and can double or triple their money very quickly. They do this by borrowing more money than they actually have to invest, amplifying their potential returns (and potential losses). But, unfortunately, most newbie traders aren’t successful. You need to get experience to make consistent, accurate predictions.

It’s a risky way of investing your bitcoins, but it can be fun with amounts you can afford to lose.

Lending Out Your Bitcoins
Image credits: coinjournal.net
I mentioned above that some traders borrow money to increase their potential profit from trading. Well, someone has to lend them that money.

That lender can be you. There are a few places you can do this easily, such as Magnr. You can store your coins with them, and share the interest they get from lending out the coins. A similar
service is bsave, who use the funds to help coinbase keep their daily trading operations running. These types of companies offer fairly low, but consistent returns.

If you want to be a bit more adventurous, you could try peer-to- peer financing on Bitfinex. It’s a feature that allows you to lend directly to traders. The loans are mostly high interest and short
duration, so there is a potential for good returns if you can lend consistently.

Be careful handing over large amounts of your bitcoins to any company. Make sure they have a good reputation and have some sort of guarantees you’ll see your money again.

Becoming a Local Bitcoin Broker
If you’ve got a bit more time on your hands, another option is to become a local bitcoin broker.

Ever notice that on a bitcoin exchange (or any currency exchange for that matter), the price to buy is slightly different than the price to sell?

This is called the ‘spread’, and it’s how brokers earn their money. They don’t hold any currency for very long, but keep trading it back and forth, earning a small margin of profit from every
transaction.

To do it yourself, you’ll need to find someone who wants to buy bitcoins in your area. Then, rather than sell to them at the market price, you sell to them at slightly above the market price
(say, an extra 5-10%). Now, try to do the same in the other direction - finding someone wanting to sell bitcoins, allowing you to buy them back at a lower price. Congrats, you just made a profit!

Of course, the volatility of the bitcoin price can make this risky, but there are many people making money this way.

Cloud Mining
Image credits: coinstaker.com
Bitcoin mining used to be one of the most profitable ways to spend your computing power. Many of the early bitcoin miners are now millionaires.

Since then it has become much more difficult. These days, you need overpriced bitcoin mining hardware, an extremely cheap electricity bill, and strong technical knowledge just to get started.
And, as the best place to get cheap hardware and electricity is China, that’s where you’ll find most of the profitable bitcoin mines.

There is a way to get a piece of the action, however, no matter where you are. Bitcoin miners need a lot of upfront investment to buy the land and computing power to get started. This opens
up an opportunity for you to lend your bitcoins to one of these mines, in exchange for a percentage of future profits.

Some of the options include genesis mining and hashflare. Be careful, though. Make sure you are going to actually make a profit on your investment, and that your coins are safe. Things change quickly in the blockchain world, so do your research.

Managing Risk
Any interest you earn is always a reward for taking a risk. As we learned in 2008, even putting money in a bank account is a risk.

The safest place for you bitcoins is in your own personal wallet or cold storage. But, if you are feeling lucky, you can try some of these methods to earn even more profit from your bitcoin
investment.

Google play store publishing report of 6 months | Tips for New Developers | The complete story of How I published my first android app in the Google Play store.

play store app publishing procedure
Hello reader, 
In this post, I'm going to put forward my experience of how I created an android game and published it in the Google play store. This article is more of a personal experience than being a technical stuff. So let me begin with my story.

I'm basically a tech geek, or more specifically a code geek. I like to code, a lot. But the education system I had, wasn't giving me enough time to work on the things I liked. But somehow I found out some time to work on the things that I wanted to. So I had this wild dream of creating an app that would go live on the Internet and the dream of many people using it. I chose Android platform because I was a bit familiar with Java and XML + Android was open source and my love. So I created some basic experimental stupid useless apps in the beginning. Thanks to YouTube for giving me resources for learning the concepts.

Disclaimer

  • This is my personal experience, Not a pure technical article.
  • This article's aim is just to give a brief idea to new developers about how the download numbers may depend on certain conditions. 
  • I'm not a pro android developer, I'm just a beginner and want to help new developers in knowing how this system actually worked for me. so that they get an idea.

This was how the idea emerged,
One day, I was having a conversation with my friends. They gave me an idea of creating a game based on 'Handcricket' , a crazy game of cricket played with hands, usually in childhood. It's a very interesting game if played with a real person. I thought of implementing that game in Android and releasing in Play store. So I started working on it.

This simple game grabbed me a sum of 41000 downloads over 7 months with a 4.4 star rating in Play store. Thanks to all my friends without whose support, this wouldn't have been possible😊.

current stat

Now comes the actual story of development and releasing. Sorry If I have bored you in the above introduction😐.

If you want to take a try at my First game, 'Handcricket Reborn' - Click here. (For Android)

The design phase:
Let me keep this part short.
It was a nice experience designing a game like this. I Used Android Studio IDE of Google INC. to develop my game. All the icons used in the games were designed in Adobe Photoshop 7.0 with raw files extracted from various sites referred from Google. While developing, I actually learned a lot of extra things.That was a nice experience.
Thanks to Nikita churya, for designing an app logo for me. It really suits the app well.

The Release date:
This first app of mine, was first released on May 13, 2016. Exactly 7 Months before This article was written. So this article is basically a report of Play store growth of my app over this 7 months.
No doubt I was furious on it's publication. So Here's the report of 7 months.

The Report:
As soon as my app was published. The first thing I did was obviously share the app's play store link with my friends so that they could play it and I get downloads. This way I was able to gain 100 downloads/day continuously for some 3 days. This took my app to 500 downloads within a week. All of these installation was done by forwarding the app link to my friends.
first three days
First three days
After all my friends tried the game, there were no more installation coming in the next few weeks. I thought this is the end of the app downloads and I would get no more downloads. Because game was so basic and simple.
Next 2-3 months
Next 2-3 months
This continued for 2-3 months. Per day there were 10-20 downloads maximum, all from India. I lost hopes in releasing updates. But one day, on September 5,2016, that is 4 months after the release, all of a sudden the game got 394 downloads (in a single day). Obviously I was amazed about this. I still don't know how. May be because of store listings.
sudden rise after 4 months
Sudden rise after 4 months
This gave me hopes to improve the app. All the Feedback till now, were to release a Bluetooth version of the game so that multiple players could connect and play cricket together. Even I had that plan. But seeing this sudden increase in download number, I thought of releasing an update to tell the users that Developer is still active with this app.

The first update,
This was on September 13 that I released the first update. Download numbers from that day set a new range of 250-500 installs per day.
first update
first update on September 13,2016
I had saw in an online article that releasing Updates will increase the number of downloads (because it would appear in the 'New+Updated Games' Section of play store), which sadly didn't happen for me.
But at this stage, the app still had 4.9 star maintained. So It somehow came up in Play store rankings. It was 173rd rank in Top Free Sport Games in India on September 12.
I got this mail from an App position tracking website App--Tracker,
mail regarding app position
Email telling the app rank in India (Top Free sport games)
This Surely made me furious which made me work on this game. I released 3-4 updates back to back during the month of October to maintain User satisfaction (Bug less game-play).
frequent updates removing bugs
Released 3 updates, each removing erros
As I did this, number of downloads gradually still went up. But there was no proper format of growth so that I can explain it here. I'll post the downloads per day graph here so that you get a better idea.
overall downloads/day
Lifetime: downloads/day (7 months)
As of today, the app is getting 200 downloads per day. Because It's too long that I last maintained it because of my exams and other academic stuff. Currently I'm learning Bluetooth API so that next update to my game gets something new and crazy.

So this was my experience after I uploaded my first app. It was actually a dream come true moment for me. Thanks for reading with patience. Now have a look at some observations I made and some tips based on the same.

Things that I observed in this duration.

  1. The Android version which gave me maximum download is Android 5.1 Lollipop.
    downloads/ android version
    downloads by android version
  2. The Country which gave maximum downloads is India. Because I released it in India. It is likely that you get most downloads from your own country in the beginning stages. 
    downloads by country
    downloads by country
  3. If you release an update with some extra features, there is probability of getting more downloads per day.
  4. If you have High Rating per larger number of downloads, there is a probability of your app coming up in the Ranking list for your country.
  5. If you integrate Google Play games achievements, There is a 99% chance of download numbers getting doubled (because some people simply play for Google gamer XP).
  6. Same way, If you integrate Google play leader board in your app, numbers may go up vigorously.
  7. Store listing plays an important role in Play store app search. Users search by keywords. If the app description contains those keywords, exposure to your app may get high.
Finally, Some tips for New developers,
  1. In the initial days of your publishing, try to share the app link with your friends as much as you can. This may increase your app's initial rating and thus the ranking. Apps with high rating and high downloads get much exposure.
  2. Keep Your App's store listing very effective. This helps in searches made by users as explained above.
  3. Try to integrate Google play services such as Play achievements, Leaderboards etc in the app.
  4. Keep on releasing new updates by removing errors in the current one. Try to minimize crashes and ANR (App not responding s). Users won't like an app which crashes regularly.
  5. Give high importance on user feedback. Because they are your primary clients.
Any suggestions or doubts regarding the publishing process? Let me know! drop a comment below. I'll reach out to you as fast as possible.


Hope this article helped you in getting an idea of how Post publishing things work in play store.
Cheers!
&
All the best for your App.
