As web users grow more and more sophisticated, utilization of longtail will increase right with them.

In another decade, we will have a generation of people entering their earning years who haven’t lived a single day of their lives without internet. When these people search for shoes, they don’t search for “shoes” like folks did in 1999.

Succinctness has fantastic branding gravity and works great in non-web based promo campaigns, but as long as SE algos continue to weigh relative keyword purity in the domain, it’s entirely possible that longer-tail keyword names and their built-in ‘filtering’ capacity might be better- in some circumstances- than shorter, more generic strings.

The chart I think should show % gain / loss from 1 month compared to the other, not on a whole. That’s why it got me confused.

The change percentage in each row is calculated on a different base.

-1% of 24.32 is different from +1% of 13.69

Matt

These don’t have to even out

Some categories gained others lost but they don’t have to equal out

It might be me, but I do not understand this chart. It could be just late here and my brain not functioning, but how do you have 14% gain on the different word lengths, and only 3% loss? Where is the other 11% coming from?

Am I reading this wrong?
