Google states they use some 200 different “signals” or factors in their algorithm computation that determines your search engine rankings.
Of course they don’t say what they all are – though some they have stated, some are obvious and some have been figured out by the large crowd of us professional Google Watchers out there.
Here are a couple of efforts to compile a complete list. They are from two of the best websites where professionals hang out, the lists don’t agree, and there are DEFINITELY things on these lists that just aren’t true.
Yes, the lists aren’t new (both date from late 2009), but things haven’t changed THAT much.
So keep on guessing folks….
