56% Of SEOs To Change Strategy For Google Instant & 43% Wont

Oct 1, 2010 - 8:53 am 1 by

Last week I asked our readers to tell me if they would change their SEO strategy due to the Google Instant release.

Honestly, I thought more people would say no, but many said they would. 45% said they would change their SEO strategy a little, almost 9% said they would change their SEO strategy a lot. Only 43% said they would not change their SEO strategy at all.

Here is the break down of the ~150 responses:

Will Google Instant Change Your SEO Techniques?

  • A Little : 45%
  • Not At All : 43%
  • A Lot : 8.8%
  • Other answer... : 3.4%

Surprised at all?

Forum discussion continued at Google Webmaster Help.
