This assumption is a huge mistake, as the DuckDuckGo search engine has continued to gain in popularity with each passing year. Google is just a part of the SEO puzzle. If you are only focusing on what Google wants, you could be missing a large portion of the search market who use other search engines, like DuckDuckGo and Bing.
