Online marketing is constantly evolving. The same goes for search engine optimization (SEO). As major search engines like Google continue to tweak their algorithms, website publishers need to stay ahead of the curve so their sites don't fall in the search rankings.
So, what's the one big trend website owners need to pay attention to over the next six to 12 months? In this video, Rand Fishkin -- founder of online marketing and SEO firm Moz -- says it's Google's focus on highlighting the "natural" search experience.

"Paying attention to how, when and why content is being amplified on the web can make you smart about SEO," he says.
