Google launches new video series: SEO Mythbusting

Google is launching a new video series on its Webmaster YouTube channel, called “SEO Mythbusting.” The video series will feature Martin Splitt from the Google Webmaster Trends Team, who will speak with developers and SEOs on common misconceptions. The videos will cover technical SEO to clarify common misconceptions and address frequently asked questions.
