What’s holding SEOs back from implementing AMP? (Take the poll!)

May 2, 2016: A survey undertaken by consultancy firm SEO PowerSuite polled 400 SEO professionals around the world on their progress implementing AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages). According to the survey, while most SEOs are aware of AMP, why it’s important, and what it takes to implement it, only 23 percent of them had actually done the work.

These findings were a bit shocking. Back in January, we noted the many reasons that SEOs should take notice of AMP, especially the fact that “Google has indicated that AMP-compliant pages will receive ranking boosts in certain use cases. If you’re fighting a competitive war for organic attention (and who isn’t?), making your content AMP-compliant could win you a few battles (until such time that your competition catches up).”

Which leads to the following question: given how much AMP can help boost visibility, why aren’t more SEOs doing it? Are the tools too buggy? Are their clients not asking for it? Are there more pressing concerns that are stealing resources from AMP projects?

To fill the knowledge gap, we’ve created a survey for SEOs asking them what’s holding them back from implementing AMP. If you’re an SEO — either inhouse, at an agency, or working on your own, please take our very brief survey. Your responses will be anonymous, no personal information will be gathered about you, and it will take you less than 5 minutes to complete it.

Thanks in advance – we’ll publish your responses in a follow-up article!
