Insights on Search Engine Evaluation and Content Creation

🔑 Yandex's document retrieval method, bm25, is similar to TF IDF and is a way for Yandex to understand content based on word count and term frequency.

💡 The use of LSI keywords and proper keyword optimization can significantly improve rankings in search engines like Google and Yandex.

⚡ The concept of E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) in SEO is important, with professional experience and first-hand knowledge being key factors in building trust and credibility.

📝 Using contextual terms and language related to personal experience and expertise can help ensure that a review is considered trustworthy.

🔄 Duplicate content can be avoided by providing unique insights and personal experiences with the product or service being reviewed.

💡 Even without physically touching the product, observations from commercials or comparisons to similar products can be used to provide original and insightful reviews.

🎓 Expertise is valued by Google, and both experience and relevant qualifications can contribute to establishing credibility.

💻 Google focuses on the content creator's credibility rather than relying on external sources or making value judgments based on degrees.

🔑 Establishing expertise and experience are important factors for E-A-T.

🗒️ Google's guidelines for human reviewers are different from the factors used by their algorithms.

🔍 Trustworthiness is emphasized by Google over hitting all aspects of expertise and experience.

🔑 Google defines authority as the extent to which a website or content creator is known as the go-to source for a topic.

💡 To be the go-to source, a website must answer all questions related to the topic and have user-generated content (UGC) such as comments.

💭 Comments on a website can improve ranking and increase content relevance over time, as well as provide indicators of authority and trustworthiness.

🔑 Trust is the most important aspect of E-A-T. Untrustworthy pages have low E-A-T, regardless of their expertise or authority.

💡 Building trust involves clearly identifying the responsible company and content creator for each page of a website.

👀 The trustworthiness of a website is crucial, and users need to know who owns and writes the content.

🏢 Running an affiliate site is considered a business, and having contact details is important for legitimacy.

🤝 Having an 'About Us' and 'Team' page provides authority and transparency to users.

📝 Creating an editorial guidelines page can contribute to the credibility of a website.

💰 Untrustworthy web pages that claim to offer independent reviews but are purely for making money are a concern.

🔑 The scale of analyzing the entire internet is a huge challenge for search engines like Google due to the cost and hardware limitations.

🔍 HTML sitemaps can help improve indexing and crawling of a website, especially for pages with technical difficulties or indexing issues.

🤖 AI-generated content, like Chat GPT, may be treated as duplicate content by search engines, leading to potential devaluation.

🔑 Using AI-generated content may not be effective in the long run as search engines like Google are likely to detect and penalize duplicated or spun articles.

🧠 AI-generated content can be used to speed up the content creation process, but it is important to have human editors to add a human touch and ensure quality.

🔗 While on-page factors are important for E-A-T (expertise, authoritativeness, trustworthiness), external links from reputable websites also play a significant role in establishing trust and relevancy.

🔍 Page Optimizer Pro offers a feature that analyzes on-page elements and compares them with competitor websites to identify areas for improvement and enhance E-A-T.

📚 Reading the Google guidelines on E-A-T can provide valuable insights, and focusing on the relevant sections rather than the entire document is recommended.
