What I find fascinating in this analysis is SEO is such a prominent part of what you liked most about what I shared this year.

With Accelerated Mobile Pages, in-app search, and many other innovations coming, I have no doubt that SEO will continue to be top of mind in 2016.
Tomorrow, a look at what other marketers shared that really resonated.
