In a Q&A session Andrey Lipattsev, a Search Quality Senior Strategist at Google, said the most important two factors are links and content. Last year they claimed that Rank Brain was the third most important factor. This is how SEL got the list of the top three. The top two are hardly surprising to any SEOer. Brian Dean recently linked to this slide deck by Google's Paul Haahr. He seems to confirm that Google is in fact using clicks from search, CTR, and clicks back to search as a ranking factor. This is of course something that people have been suspecting for ages. They also test their own search results by doing A/B live testing. Haahr said that if you do a query you're often taking part in at least one test.
