Digital SEO Marketing-- The Struggle to find out what Google is actually 'not providing' you.

Digital SEO Marketing is a tricky and complex area, and some of the ways that makes it even harder is the way that Google is making it harder to find information. I am not normally one to fuss about the way that Google develops-- mostly they are moving to help make the SEO 'game' a more genuine a worth driven sector, but some things are still aggravating. So what am I complaining about here? Well let me make an effort and clarify it this way.



Irrespective of how you intend to design your keyword investigation, it all begins with a specific core concept, one that you should build by scanning your metrics and Google Analytics.
The concept is that from this principal idea and keyword, you then construct a seed list of terms, expanding through interrelated terms and synonyms of your base concept. The expansion of terms will then begin to be tailored towards SEO ideas, content marketing, online marketing and other points to consider.

At one point, Google was willing to make all of its searcher keyword data available free of charge to those wanting to conduct research. However, this has all changed with the modifications made to Google's policy and the role that '(Not Provided)' now plays.

Google has made a decision though that they are going to cut back the access to the data created by specific searchers. This includes those who are logged into a Google account such as Gmail and Google+, in addition to anyone using recent updates of Mozilla Firefox. The secure searchers are indicated in the search result site's domain including 'https' rather than 'http'.

According to the Not Provided site, www.NotprovidedCount.com, this influences an ever increasing amount of data, being upwards of 80 %. This means that the days of easy and free access to marketing reports through Google Analytics accounts are at an end. Rather, you will have to invest in a Google AdWords advertising account in order to use Google's proprietary information.


There are a variety of good keyword research tools accessible in this day and age, however an SEO company is an invaluable resource. With the changing nature of keywords since Hummingbird, and the issues of 'Not Provided', it seems to be that an SEO company may be one of the fastest ways to learn the real metrics for many industry areas. The main concern that is brought up by this is how it influences the small businesses in Warrnambool that are attempting to conduct some DIY SEO who don't always want to run a full SEO campaign or invest too much money in AdWords or AdSense. Where this goes next in 2016, only time will tell. But if you are looking out for more information on ways that you can try and get more accurate information and metrics that will actually help you, consider approaching an SEO Agency. Every agency is different, so do some analysis and find one that is best for you.
