EDGE of the Web - The Best SEO Podcast for Today's Digital Marketer

565 | PAAs and Rich Snippets with Mark Williams-Cook


Listen Later

Erin Sparks and Mark Williams-Cook explore featured snippets and People Also Ask (PAA) features from Google. They dig into the benefits and how SEOs can take advantage of them. They somehow found a way to bake bread with Google, too.

Mark helped spearhead the development of one of Erin’s favorite SEO/content tools, AlsoAsked.com. His software collects PAAs from Google and allows users to use the data in a variety of ways, from creating long-form content to writing higher-converting PPC ads.

Come join the party and help bake bread with Google… on the EDGE!
