Backlinks? 8.5. Still very important when it comes to ranking highly from an SEO standpoint. And because the LLMs still pull from Google and Bing, backlinks are not dead. Keyword stuffing? Oh, like a 1. I mean, this is dead, like all the way back, like 2012 dead. This hurts your SEO so much and the algorithms are so smart now, especially with AI, that any bit of manipulation when it comes to keyword stuffing will not work.
Long-form blogs?
Long-form blogs are a 7.5, 8. If you stop blogging, it's been proven, there is data that shows out there that your traffic drops. And then your citations on LLMs will also drop. Internal linking? Internal linking, like a 7. Still very important. It's important for you to show to algorithms, whether they're search engines, how to go about finding things on your website. AI overviews? I would say AI overviews are probably around an 8 or so. That's the future. If you're not structuring content for AI to cite you, you're invisible.
What about meta descriptions?
Meta descriptions are becoming less and less important. They're like a 5 now because Google itself, they're rewriting meta descriptions. When it comes to LLMs, they're not even reading meta descriptions.
Posting on platforms Like Reddit, YouTube, Amazon?
9. The reason for this is because search is becoming everywhere. So Reddit is the top site and that's changing over time. Wikipedia is pretty up there. YouTube is pretty up there as well. YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world. So you got to think about optimizing for multiple platforms because attention is so disparate today.
