Our ongoing reporting, especially for our clients running digital ads, was taking too much time, but we didn't want to deprive our clients of their valuable data and analytics. This funk didn't last long – we quickly discovered Google Data Studio, and it solved our reporting issue almost immediately. With Google Data Studio, we said hello to dynamic data visualizations and goodbye to lengthy decks with tedious screenshots.

Misuse and overemphasis on the role of certain meta tags has ended up causing confusion for those outside the SEO community in recent years. Case and point: there are still many websites that "stuff" meta tags with targeted keywords in hopes that they'll skyrocket in the organic search rankings – this may have worked long ago but does not anymore. This post covers how and why, in the modern day of SEO, meta tags might not be as important as you once thought.
