TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

[00:27] Today’s Topic: Does AMP Still Help With SEO?
[00:42] AMP stands for Accelerated Mobile Pages.
[00:55] AMP helps speed up your page loads on mobile devices.
[01:25] Google is caching, which is why it loads so quickly.
[01:45] It strips a lot of stuff away to increase speed, so you lose out on a lot of conversions.
[02:12] AMP helps somewhat in SEO.
[02:22] In the United States, AMP doesn’t help with traffic.
[02:45] In places like Brazil, the traffic increases.
[03:05] If you are targeting less developed regions, AMP will still help you with SEO.
[03:28] However, we can’t give a definitive answer.
[04:05] By building on top of Google products, you risk losing control of your site.
[04:36] That’s it for today!
[05:15] We hit our goal of 1 Million downloads! So, we will be throwing a free event in Los Angeles this June. Check out this website if you would like to attend.
