Periodic Table of SEO Factors 2019
As I was researching and learning more about the proper way to optimize sites and pages for SEO ranking, I ran across Search Engine Land's Periodic Table of SEO Factors 2019 edition.
I found it an interesting read and super helpful in many ways. I thought I would pass it along to my WA family in case there are some who have not yet seen the information.
I have included several snipped images here since the table is first shown full and then broken down into element groups of similar factors. More detailed information on each element group is given within each group's image.
If some images are difficult to read, you can right click on the image > open to a new tab > and then you are able to zoom into the image. I could not find a way to make the image zoomable, sorry!
Search Engine Land uses a weighting scale for each factor ranging from a score of -3 on the low end and +3 on the high end. This weighting factor is found in the upper right corner of the element itself. Below is the legend given for each element:
Here is the Periodic Table in full:
Next are the Element groups broken down into groups of similar factors. These groups include: content, architecture, HTML, trust, links, user, toxins (factors that can hurt SEO), and elements that are new to the table in 2019. Their images are listed in order below.
Lastly, is the group of elements that are new to the table in 2019. Search Engine Land gives the warning "Ignore these factors at your own peril." These are factors with growing importance on SEO.
I hope you all will find this periodic table as helpful and informational as I did!

Hi Jaz:
.
Making my come-back & sneaking around when I got to reading some of your comments within the live chat. So I pop-ed on over here & your "periodic table" caught my eye. I do plan to study up what you present here. This "periodic table" read is not gonna be a 5 minute thing, though.
Thank you for this intel.
I found the Search Engine Land site thanks to a small course on SEO I took elsewhere. They have a lot of great tips but I thought this one table summarized the site well. I hope you get something out of it :)
Take care, Shannon
