Wix’s Head of SEO Branding, Mordy Oberstein, and Head of SEO Communications, Crystal Carter, pull off their second episode of SERP’s Up, the SEO industry’s newest podcast. It’s an SEO podcast for everyone! 

What IS Content? Mordy and Crystal team up to tackle the effective use of content and the definition of what content really is in their Deep Thoughts segment. Is content strictly the words on the page or something else? What does it really “relate” to? We’re looking at content with a new perspective: what you place in different interaction points of the journey with your user is also content, right? The tiniest points matter the most. Don’t gloss over them.

We’re joined by Shelby Blackley & Jessie Willms of WTF is SEO? to get their take on how to get users to not only click on content but ultimately trust the brand and come back for more!
