In reply to Jon.

Hi Jon, the pattern of frequent updates and continual change has been the norm since SEO began around 1996. Google and the other search engines are constantly trying to improve their results. The landscape of search engines, in fact, is a great example of the rapid change that defines our industry. Just for fun, take a look at this histogram showing our Search Engine Relationship Chart as it’s changed through the years: http://www.bruceclay.com/serc_histogram/histogram.htm

It seems as if we are going to be experiencing Google updates on a regular basis, May and October 2012, 2013 and now with Panda 4.0 in May 2014 there does seem to be a pattern emerging. Then again, why would people not be preparing for the future of SEO, times are changing and we should be adapting to it.

Almondj: You bring up a good question. Backlinks do have considerable influence on SEO, whether for a site’s benefit (in the case of links from relevant, quality pages) or harm (in the case of low-quality or suspicious links). However, this has already begun to lessen, and recently Matt Cutts said that links will become less influential in the future.

It is really necessary in today’s era of search marketing to prepare and update for future not for today. If you think out of the box and if can understand that what audience want really then you will be on top. Always try to implement strategies with a planning and try to keep update according all previous guidelines. Always have an eye on previous updates and changes what they done, by this you can simply get to know that what they want to do in future.

“Backlinks may not be as important to ranking as they once were, and the question of building links needs to continue.” Why are people perpetuating this? Links may not have as strong of an influence as they once did, but they are still incredibly powerful.
