Re: Google's new Opt-In Data Sharing initiative
I have always thought that this new benchmarking initiative, through Google's Adwords program, is just another variable that they will be able to use for their "organic" ranking algorithms. Just more additional quality factors and traffic factors that they can apply to their natural rankings. I know Google and many others here have suggested that the Adwords algorithm is completely separate from their "organic ranking" algorithms but I still am not completely convinced.
I know this is anecdotal but all of our clients that have Adwords campaigns also have the highest "organic" rankings as well in Google.
Anyone else think that this might be the case?
