To overcome this we need to use third party tools that have no history. We'll also need tools that tell us what people are doing on our website so we can improve the content and design still further - because the longer people stay on the site, the more search engines see it as relevant to the search that was just carried out, and the more they will want to rank you even higher.

We're also going to need to ensure our website is live 24/7/365. Search engines hate unreliable websites so even if your SEO is triple A in terms of content and it looks great because of your tip-top design - if it isn't working half the time, don't expect to rank highly in the search results.
