With nearly 100 pages, the SEO ranking factors for 2014 includes, among those ranking factors that we already know about, new ones like time of site, bounce rate, fresh links and a lot more.
If you are into SEO, just curious or want to know what works, this study is all you need to get started. All in all, the key take away from here is that content may now be truly king. What do you think?
