The index for 2010 is going to be lean and bald like Matt Cutts, other Google employees will lose their hair to look more android, resistance is futile.
Key points from a SEO perspective:
- Comprehensive – When you do a search for your “keywords” expect extreme variation and inclusiveness.
- Relevance – This is the holy grail of search, if you are there…you are home.
- Freshness – Expect to see more news, blogs, Google stores, images, video and other media injected into organic search.
- Speed – You will need to optimize your server and content for mobile AND Google!

To do:
If you use Wordpress as a CMS I highly suggest that you install WP-super cache. Matt talks about speed and efficiency a lot these days, in 2010 you do not want to be on a slow server or have a sluggish website (wordpress). Super cache serves things up a bit faster, don’t forget to tic the “gzip” box.
