Looking ahead: SEO In 2015

- Focus On The User - User-friendly websites will rank higher on a search engine results page.

- Mobile Optimisation - Poor mobile optimisation can lead to a spike in bounce rates, which can have a negative impact on SEO results.

- Secure Encryption - Currently, HTTPS is a fairly weak ranking signal, but Google has indicated that it may become more significant in the near future.

- Refine Your Website’s URL Structure - A streamlined URL structure will improve your search rankings.

- Google’s Hummingbird Matters - It’s becoming more common for users to start a search by asking a question.

- Look At Other Search Engines Besides Google – Other search engines are becoming more widely accepted, so you need to consider focusing on them in order to attract a wider client base.
