Favorite thing about the SEM community? What I like most in the SEO community is all the cohesiveness and readiness for help from colleagues. There is no significant competition, but rather friendship, a desire to learn new things, to discover new things and to share knowledge.
I am happy to be part of this community! I'm glad how creative and dynamic it can be and how much we can learn from each other. Quite often in online discussion or conferences during networking, we also come to fundamental conclusions, practices and know-how, and that's a real goldmine!
I also like the diversity of people in SEO - different cultures, different approaches in different countries, people with diverse experience and education.
One piece of advice to the SEMs out there? The world of SEO is dynamic, but it's not easy at all. Despite the difficulties, do not stop learning, do not be ashamed to participate in forums and groups online. Do not be ashamed to ask questions and do not stop testing. Engage with SEO influencers! This is the only way to reach fundamental knowledge and build know-how.
Be creative and proactive! Keep track of your results and keep an eye on how you can improve your content strategy, both for a business and for its audience. Think about what content formats you can use to impress visitors of any business website, what exactly is searched for in each phrase, how it is drawn, what the user expects to see, what issues it solves, and how you can improve it in order to distinguish yourself. The content strategy must evolve continuously.
Favorite things in general? When I do not do SEO I like to play the piano, I have been playing since 6 years old. I love going to concerts, taking pictures of nature, going out with friends and of course spending time with my girlfriend.
I love reading books, Google patents, tracking trends in SEO, and watching video courses on text retrieval, data mining, MapReduce, artificial intelligence, and the semantic web at all.
What you want to be known for in the SEM space? Semantic optimization and SEO & Content creative approaches for providing of the best results by query in Google. I love to apply SEO tactics entirely oriented to the requirements and characteristics of the users of any business niche.
I also love the semantic optimization of texts and websites at all, testing and adhering to the Knowledge Graph entry rules and its elements, the Featured Snippet, etc. I strongly believe that semantic SEO will become more and more important according to the results I see in my projects, every day, that have already been successful in Google's elements of the search results.
