The basics are still the same regarding content & relevancy, so any blog or forum that follows those basic guidelines should be ok.

Forums should be about engagement anyway and a blog is just content presented in a particular format, but still content nonetheless.

SEO tactics are still key for forums and blogs even as we move into 2024. Yes, search engines are getting smarter and constantly change their algorithms, but the core principles of SEO remain solid. The focus has shifted more towards quality content and user experience, which is actually great for forums and blogs. To stay relevant, it's all about creating valuable content that answers people's questions and is enjoyable to read or interact with. Also, paying attention to keywords, making sure your site is mobile-friendly, and improving page speeds are crucial. Engaging with your audience and encouraging discussions can also boost your SEO by increasing dwell time and generating fresh content. So, yes, adapt by focusing more on your users, and you'll find that traditional SEO strategies still very much have a place in 2024.

A few things that are the base still same and I don't think so they gonna change, but Google have evolved rapidly over time, the algorithmic updates are now too strict and repetitive. But for me the good news is the use of AI in blogging and automation. It has made things super easy.

While ChatGPT and other AI technologies enhance user experiences in 2024, SEO remains a fundamental strategy for driving organic traffic, increasing visibility, and fostering community engagement in 2024.

Yes, SEO is still a very effective way to get traffic. As long as people still search the web for stuff, you will benefit from SEO. AI is gaining traction and more research is being done via AI - but the majority of regular folk are still using Google Search.

With that said - I would still focus on building a social presence as well. Organic traffic from search and social is the way to go! Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

In my experience, in the ever changing digital landscape of 2024, traditional SEO strategies are necessary and will play the same useful role as before.

With continuous updates in search engine algorithms and content quality for the best user experience, forums and blogs need to adapt SEO practices to stay relevant and competitive.

As traditional SEO strategies are still valuable, but after recent updates, the search engines are preferring "Content Content Quality, and Best User Experience."
