I have longed for the opportunity to answer this question. I hope these words of mine are taken for what they are, regardless of the fact that I am not an influential voice in the scene. I want to make a heartfelt appeal both to those who are new to the subject and to those who have been learning about it for a long time: do not lose sight of logic and common sense. Ask yourself questions as you work, especially about the users of the sites you are optimizing. Don't close yourself in stratagems and code. Work without considering Google an enemy or an obstacle to overcome, because it absolutely isn't. To be effective, your work must become synergistic, and I'm not just talking about the infamous code of conduct. Don't ask yourself “did I optimize the page too much? Will Google punish me?” but rather "does the user who arrives on this page have all the information I can give him on the topic?". “How can I manipulate Google to come first” is wrong, you think “How can I make my page the best for Google users, so that the latter rewards it with an excellent positioning?” If you think about the user and act with common sense Google will reward you and not punish you, stop.
If you think you're "taking a risk", walking a tightrope, you're already starting off on the wrong foot. Take a deep breath often and appeal to your most important tool: common sense, every time you have to make a decision or think about what to do. The tests, the numbers, the code, are important things, but they are details that come AFTER the filter of common sense itself. The activity of every SEO Denmark Telegram Number Data MUST be guided by common sense. I often see people worrying about little numbers, bits of code, important but secondary details, especially when setting up a project. These super-optimizations must be done when "the gist" has already been done. Start from there. Doing SEO is essentially cataloging and organizing information, making it attractive and understandable to search engines and at the same time to their users, and then distributing it. Always start from this. Remember that the Internet was born as a space for cataloging and disseminating scientific texts. Look for completeness, richness, clarity, cite sources, find the truly useful distribution of the content you want to optimize for search engines. Have mental flexibility: don't get hung up on "truths" coming from more or less official sources, which come from those who have an interest in making you think of something biasedly.
In your relationship with Google and its partners, think about whether the things that are explicitly told to you by them make sense or not. Think with your head. Test, don't assume anything. Filter everything you read, everything you say, every action you plan to take with your common sense. Think for example of the mess that has arisen around SSL. Try to see how the engine responds in these cases, wait, exchange opinions and experiences with colleagues. Find some willing to do it with you! I know that many will turn up their noses (and many will have already stopped reading) and will shout about "ethical SEO", which I have heard discussed many times in a distorted way in the communities. Ethics is a word with the wrong connotation in this area. I prefer “common sense”. Do the best for your users, with this attitude you can NOT go wrong. You don't have to follow Google's code of conduct because you have to be white hat but because, by understanding its meaning, you will build useful pages for users and, at the same time, you will make the web a better place.
