Are we really talking about Not Provided again? That’s such old news! It’s also not anything new to say that SEOs don’t really like the idea of Google not letting us see our keywords. This has been quite the discussion since Google’s switch to secure search. Because of this switch, it’s forced us to approach keyword […]
It’s old news by now. We’ve all heard it. (Not provided) can be a bit….suck-ish. Since (not provided) entered the scene, it has shaken things up in the SEO and Analytics world.

Is it possible? Could it be that SEO is actually dead? Keywords is a (or could you say IS the) key SEO tool for bringing potential customers to a site is starting to look pretty grim now that (not orovided) is rearing it’s ugly head. For the people over at Moz, at first, their (not […]
It has been confirmed, if not quietly, that Google will be encrypting all search data, no matter if the user is signed in or not.
