I personally think that in 2010 goes on, factors of on-page and off-page SEO will differ as we know it. I think we will see a transition towards client factors in determining SERP results. That included with advanced personalized results and we’ll be seeing a huge change of the searchers experience with Bing and the other search engines. Each search result will not be created alike, take a look at things like user interaction, bounce rate, bounce time, etc… Focus on a better site all around, and I think you’ll see better results in 2010.
Thanks for the useful search engine optimisation and conversion info, I stumble across alot of web sites that either don’t know or take the time to implement these basic web design fundamentals. Look forward to your next post, cheers Shannon
