16 Companies “Domainating” Google Search Results
Written by: Alvin Brown

I’ve long heard that Domain Authority (DA) is more important than ever.

If you’re not familiar with either Brian or Glen, then take a moment to read up at Backlinko.com and Detailed.com respectively.

But I digress.

In a recent article posted by Glen, “How 16 Companies are Dominating the World’s Google Search Results”, he reveals how the perceived and varying range in Google search results is controlled by a handful of large corporate conglomerates.

How to Increase SEO Context to Boost Search Rankings and Results.

June 8, 2018 No Comments
Written by: Alvin Brown

A few years back, I pondered the impact of a newly birthed semantic search strategy pertaining to small businesses with a hyper-local customer base.

Of course, semantic search has transformed into much more since that time, expanding beyond local SEO.
