MOZ has published a case study titled ‘The Google Ranking Factor You Can Influence in an Afternoon’. The study features some proven strategies to boost Google ranking.

However, what we didn’t realize was that when we experienced success, it was because we accidentally stumbled on the true ranking factor.

Longer content alone was not the intent behind Hummingbird”.
