About me
I tried to Google my toddler’s
behaviour.
According to my research,
she’s a honey badger.
Because she doesn’t give a s**t.

@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
We are changing
Google’s changing
The SERPS are changing
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
Humans have evolved too
Desktop Mobile Voice Predictive
The evolution of search
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
Google discovers Intent
Jimi probably doesn’t
just want results filled
with images of flowers
or information about
flowers
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
3 ways to humanise search and
address these changes
1. Fluidity between channels
2. Linguistic analysis to get to the intent &
variations in intent
3. Personalisation through what we do on site

Voice search queries are longer
than text queries
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
“People communicate with each other by
conversation, not by typing keywords –
and we’ve been hard at work…to
understand and answer your questions
more like people do”
Google’s Senior Vice President; Amit Singhal
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
It’s not surprising voice searches
are longer given;
We type at ~40 WPM
But we speak at ~140 WPM!
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
What can you start doing here?
Keyword game: Triathlon training
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
Voice: What is the best practice for doing a triathlon?
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD

Personalisation
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
The future holds more
personalisation
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
Intent + Voice search
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
Final thoughts
@JimshaL Resolution - Manning Gottlieb - OMD
Be Personal – Reach people in a more meaningful
and relevant way
Be Actionable – Create an experience which will
leave people wanting to come back
Be Measurable – On and offline
Thank You
