In 2018 Quality Content Is Reigning and Is Important for SEO and Ranking
It's always been important to write online content for people and not search engines, but many entrepreneurs didn't always listen. They just wanted something up to attract the search engines and rank high. Worse, some unscrupulous "marketers" used trickery to get people to visit their website to only be redirected to more advertisements and paid links.
While I understand we are using tools and the excursions we know about search engine optimization and marketing for good, the changes are actually very great for businesses.
With the changes in search engine results, if you want to compete, you'll have to concentrate on high-quality content as opposed to simply getting any content up. The higher quality the content that you have, and the more relevant the SERPS become, the more you're going to appear in results for viewers searches. Don't examine the changes as something awful. They are good for you, the honest business owner.
You will need to know what constitutes quality content and seek to ensure that all the content on your website meets those expectations.

You don't have to have perfect grammar, and you don't need to write college level material (unless your audience requires it) but you do have to use common language your target audience could use, and write to their degree.
