Connecting The Dots
Voice search is making the biggest noise in the marketing world right now.
According to comScore, by 2020, 50 percent of all searches will be voice searches. In fact, as of January 2018, over one billion searches were happening over voice per month already.
Similarly, Google, and even Bing, are displaying more on their result pages than just a list of websites. It includes everything from rich snippets to question/answers to the knowledge graph.
Also, although it’s an old news, Google is now extensively relying on its artificial intelligent program, RankBrain, to rank and display results on SERP. And the major factors that are influencing RankBrain are entirely lopsided to UX, which includes bounce rate, dwell time, pogo-sticking and more.
When you connect all these dots, it returns back to the fundamentals of Google search: provide the high-quality result to the users. Although blurred, today, the definition of “high-quality” is to be more humane and less robotic.
It has long been known about Google's commitment to natural language processing. The search engine is closer than ever to turn its search mechanism less robotic and more human, where bots not just know the natural language but also understand the intent behind it.
