Yesterday on Twitter, John Mueller of Google said that it is always good fixing known issues with your website. Be it a technical issue, spelling mistake in content, or any other error. He also added to this, Google does not count your typos and spelling mistakes.


This is what exactly he wrote, “It's always good to fix known issues with a site, but Google's not going to count your typsos.”


What is he trying to Say?

Is Content Quality not a strong ranking signal for Google? Is this what he is trying to convey? If yes, then thin content domains would rank higher than websites having good quality content. In some cases, I have seen domains with thin content ranking higher than domains with high-quality content. I use to wonder, why it is so, but now this can be one of the reasons for the domain ranking higher in search results.

Is it ok to have Typos and Spelling Mistakes?

So now everyone must be having the same question, is it ok to have typos and spelling mistakes in your content? The answer to this can be If you are just looking for search engine ranking perspective than having spelling mistakes and typos will not harm you. But, If you are concerned about your readers then it will definitely have a great impact on them. Having spelling mistakes and typos will showcase you as an unprofessional to your readers. I personally would not recommend you to attempt this error.

My opinion on this front would be, fix all the typos and spelling mistakes on your website, not just for search engine rankings but mainly for user experience (your readers). In order to increase the quality of your content and blog posts, you can read my previous post where I have shared few free tools that can enhance your productivity. This activity will definitely help you succeed in the long run.

Was there an algorithm update yesterday i.e. on 24th May 2018? Nothing official yet, but there were many chatters going on in the BlackhatWorld and WebmasterWorld. A few days back, around 17th May 2018, there were more fluctuations reported by most of the tracking tools.

The discussion started yesterday in the forums, report that the fluctuations are intermittent. Many of them have seen their rankings jumping here and there in a very short period of time. Many webmasters believe that this can be a Google dance or a small data refresh. Now one is still confident about this update.

Below I have highlighted few discussions going on in the forum threads.
We're seeing a completely different set of results today. Much more like the results from 3 months ago... more tweaks?

More oddball traffic patterns...three days in a row, one conversion at 7 am +/- 15min...then nothing the rest of the day. Traffic coming in drip fashion again, same old same old. Referral spam is rampant.

To me it looks a bit like they reversed the update they did in early March, the sites I see dropping are the sites that went up in early March and now returned to the "old" positions.

The Yoast issue isn't related to these drops, it's certainly not helpful, but non-Wordpress sites were affected the same way at about the same time. Would be nice if the solution would be that easy, but unfortunately, it isn't for sure. 
Some are speculating that it may be because of the Yoast SEO plugin bug while others are of the opinion that Google has updated its algorithm. Still, there are very few chatters on this, so it’s hard to conclude anything.

Below I have shared the screenshots of the tracking tools.

MozCast:-



SerpMetrics:-



Algoroo:-



AccuRanker:-



RankRanger:-



SEMRush:-



The above monitoring tools have reported a spike in the volatility of SERP’s, but still nothing official yet. So if you also report any fluctuations in your search engine rankings, plz share it with us using the below comment box. I will also be tracking it and sharing real-time updates with you all.

Welcome back friends,

Today I am going to share 5 awesome tools with you that are available for free and will help you improve your writing skills and drive huge traffic to your blog post. I hope my previous post about Google personalized search results was worth reading. The tools that I will be sharing today are essentially online tools that will help you generate new blog post ideas or catchy titles for your blog post.

The title of your blog post plays a vital role to attain maximum CTR and drive a good amount of traffic to your blog. A good and punchy title with proper call to action compels the user to click on the blog post and read it. It not only helps you drive targeted traffic to your blog post but also plays an important role in its search engine ranking.
Since titles are so crucial, let’s take a look at how we can capitalize it to its maximum to produce optimal results for us.

  • A good title is the one that is optimized for the user as well as for search engines. 
  • The title should contain your main keyword in exact match. 
  • It should describe what the blog-post/content is all about.
In the past, when I was using WordPress as my blogging platform, I had an option to write two different titles. One for the readers and other for search engines. But now since I have shifted my blog on blogger.com, I just have only one option.

In order to achieve the above-desired results, you need to have a catchy title that will attract the reader and will make him click on the title and read your post. You must be wondering, I am all talking about having a catchy title, optimizing it for readers and search engines. But, what I am not talking about all is how to do it or which tools will help me do this. Right?
