SEO in India
In this two-minute video interview, Siddharth Lal, head of Bruce Clay India, speaks to ClickZ.asia on the SEO landscape in the country.
Many websites have been using link building tactics and keyword stuffing that were questionable due to lack of awareness, but things have changed in the past year, he said. He added that Google Panda and Penguin have also forced marketers to change their SEO tactics to focus on good quality content.
Lal is positive that there’ll be more budget allocated for SEO with a lot more “clean” practices in the country in 2013.
Search Marketing Efforts Geared Toward Google
