SEOs report search volatility
If you’ve found your search rankings to be volatile lately, or that your organic traffic has dropped off, you’re not the only one. Lots of SEOs are reporting the same, especially that Google are not only shaking up rankings but taking up more space at the top of the page with paid ads, meaning less conversions for organic traffic.
This is part of a continuing trend that sees Google changing ranking factors, switching rankings about and generally annoying everyone. The mood in the SEO world is cynical, as many believe Google are doing this purely to increase reliance on paid ads, putting their own revenue above the democratic approach to search that made Google popular in the first place.
Universal Analytics is dead. Long live GA4?
Universal Analytics is now officially obsolete, and Google are gradually phasing out this old and much-loved platform in favour of Google Analytics 4.
The power and sophistication of GA4 means it can do a lot more than before, but complexity comes at the cost of simplicity. If you’re struggling to get used to the new platform, you’re not alone. In a recent survey less than 1 in 4 marketers said had now fully adopted GA4 and had little new to learn.
That’s professional marketers, so if you’re still scratching your head with GA4, you can be forgiven!

We launch our reviews service
We’ve now launched our service to get more reviews for your clinic.

We’ve also recently launched a new range of SEO services starting at just £79/month, which you can see here.
