In each #ASKIrfan episode, I will be answering various questions that I get asked from time to time.
In this inaugural #ASKIrfan episode, I answer the question:
What are the Top 3 SEO Myths of Today?
In my view, the biggest SEO myths of today are:
SEO is D.E.A.D.
To paraphrase an alleged statement of Mark Twain, the reports of SEO’s death are greatly exaggerated.
SEO is only about writing content (with keywords stuffed in it).
And/or backlinks are NOT important; just mindlessly sprinkle some non-sensical keywords in your article.
SEO is cheap.
And/or, SEO means spammy content, and even spammier backlinks.
