SEO is more complex today than five years ago due to advancements like AI and changes in user behavior, but the core fundamentals of creating quality content and building authority through backlinks remain the same. The difficulty has increased because search engines now prioritize user intent and experience, shifting focus from technical manipulation to genuine value.

SEO has become harder over the last five years, not because the fundamentals have changed, but because the landscape is more complex, requiring deeper technical knowledge, sophisticated content strategies, and adaptation to new technologies like AI and voice search.
