From a reimagined UX to real-time technical SEO insights, explore the most innovative SEO updates to Conductor from 2022.
2022 continued the volatility that has remained constant since 2020, with widespread economic uncertainty across the globe driving shake ups in many industries. Search was no exception to disruption as Google rolled out three major updates, along with thousands of smaller updates, over the last 12 months. Two of the most notable releases were the helpful content update, which prioritizes content for humans over search engines and continuous scroll on SERPs for desktop.
It’s safe to say the last 12 months have kept SEOs on their toes. Boosting workflow efficiency, solving bandwidth limitations, and accessing richer data have been top of mind for SEOs and marketing leaders. With Conductor’s customer-first methodology, these needs were the driving force behind our top SEO tech innovations in the platform in 2022.
But enough intro, let’s dive into what you came here for: the highlight reel of Conductor’s 2022 Product Wrapped, detailing the top releases driving the most impact.

#2. ContentKing joins forces with Conductor: The new SEO dream team
A stunning 45% of marketers reported that the worst SEO incidents had an impact of $10,000 or more on their most critical website, according to data from The State of SEO QA Research in 2021 study .
