Will Your SEO Efforts Change Due To Google Instant?

Sep 24, 2010 - 8:59 am 6 by

As we posted earlier today, most SEOs say their referrals haven't changed since Google Instant launched. That is a good thing, and it complies a lot on what Conductor reported, where search behavior seems to be pretty much the same as it was prior to Google Instant.

Knowing that, I would assume most SEOs wouldn't be adjusting their SEO efforts. Of course, soon after Google Instant launched the topic of SEO is dead came up again. Yes, many shot him down.

Having seen all of this, will you change your SEO strategy at all? Will your optimization or keyword research or method of going after searchers change at all?

A Google Webmaster Help thread has conversation on this topic. Some say it will impact how people search, some people it will lead to more searches and so on. People are sharing case studies in the thread, so it can get interesting.

Take my poll below on how Google instant has changed your SEO techniques:
