Congratulations on your presentation. Unconventional, but so right, I think. Sticking to search intentions and filling in the gaps, is the most promising approach, in line with all the Google recommendations on Helpful Content. Working on this balance between reasoned use of LSI/Entyties/Attributes and content gaps vis-à-vis the competitors is so powerful. I've experienced it for myself.
Very insightful! I can’t afford to pay thousands a month so I appreciate your videos! I am watching the ads tho to say thanks! It’s crazy to see all the other TH-camrs who tell you to write long content and use the topical authority method of writing an article about every single aspect of any topic.
How do you know or spot which content Google doesn't find helpful if they penalizes the whole site? When even the good, helpful articles gets penalized in the SERP and lose rankings due to the HCU penalty, it makes it almost impossible to figure out, which articles Google doesn't find helpful.
Google can easily identify low value, low effort content and websites. They have amazing AI products and limitless compute power and decades of internet content feeding their models. Just need to be better than the competition. SEO definitely isn't a get quick rich scheme. As I'm learning atm, it's a big time investment. You create some really good content, I like your style and format - just straight to the point, and you provide some great insights. The Membership is a great idea, you should be compensated for your time.
Hey Robert, yes, definitely. I would probably just 404 them. So, if you're in WP, you don't technically have to delete them... Just UNPUBLISH them. And then see what happens after the next core update. And/or unpublish them, rework the article, and then publish it again. Anything that dropped in rankings, fastest course of action is just to get it out of Google's sights.
Hey man a good video idea would be how using keywords appearing google search console to boost organic rankings. I sprinkled a few of them throughout my content and saw an instant boost in rankings. Can you do a video showing a consistent systematic approach to take to this method?
Good Q: there’s not really. Unpublish if I’m WP-keep the content. And then just let the 404 happen. It doesn’t have as bad of effects as you might think.
I would appreciate a video on the easiest and preferably free way to automate traffic and CTR on a brand new website. It is of course my curious friend who is wondering!
@@SEOtruths It’s one of the most important steps for new sites. Automagically get more traffic and clicks is very important for better ranking. Of course local and good traffic, not from a bot farm in India. There’s a lot of tools for this, but many people wonder if they still work and so on. A video about how this hypothetically could be done would attract a lot of curious people, but of course we all should strive for genuine traffic instead of Blackhat.
How to increase the relevance without stuffing keywords cuz I published a post for a specific topic without stuffing keywords. But, Google doesn't seem to know what the post is about, it ranked it for several non relevant searches.
There's like mountains of data you can see in ahrefs. Including my low dr and high pageview videos... I cover like at least 4 sites that all got slapped by HCU because of this, yeah. So check out those and you'll see the connection.
I can't because it's not like a prescribed type of thing. Whatever you're reading/listening to is probably wrong. It's hard to reverse something from Le Goog.
So you want to say that if I write a unique article, and then my competitors steal it piece by piece, then I will not receive a penalty from Google? Do they determine the original source of the content?
Legit-DuckDuckGo was part of the lawsuit against Google. And that didn’t even work in the US (revealing Googles deceptive tactics). We got some things to worry about. Everyone reading: let your 2 year olds on TikTok. That’ll help their brain. Lololol.

Yeah. Unfortunately.
Thanks - could you clarify what you mean by deleting those affected posts eg would you just 404 or 301 redirect to a similar post?
Hey Robert, yes, definitely. I would probably just 404 them. So, if you're in WP, you don't technically have to delete them... Just UNPUBLISH them. And then see what happens after the next core update. And/or unpublish them, rework the article, and then publish it again.

Do you have a membership on your channel?
You are yet to reply me big man... How do you index your articles in bulk?
You don't. There's no way to do it in bulk. Use the RankMath instant indexing tool for 200 articles per day.
thanks for all the fresh content!im having problems with reliable hosting for multiple websites please reccomend a hosting service that can help
Cloudways. GoDaddy. Any.
Great video, as always. Is there a way to bulk delete without getting 404 errors.?
Good Q: there’s not really. Unpublish if I’m WP-keep the content. And then just let the 404 happen. It doesn’t have as bad of effects as you might think.
can you share how to rank expired domains and it is good or not???
I wouldn't even try, honestly. Google's pretty onto that.
Sir can you bring a video on Anchor text with proper case study and seo truths about anchors.

Great video! Is plugin SEO like Yoast or Rank Math necessary for blog? If you may you suggest me what is the plugin should I use? Thank you.
Depends. They can be helpful if used correctly. But not a silver spoon method.
@@SEOtruths Can I write articles without plugin SEO? Just focus quality content.
I use All In One SEO, and it works great
How to increase the relevance without stuffing keywords cuz I published a post for a specific topic without stuffing keywords. But, Google doesn't seem to know what the post is about, it ranked it for several non relevant searches.
It might just take more time for Google to figure it out. It doesn’t happen instantly.
Check your page title, meta description, and just ensure you're not going TOO wide with the content uniqueness. And then give it time.
Do you have a real case study of what you just explained in this video?
There's like mountains of data you can see in ahrefs. Including my low dr and high pageview videos... I cover like at least 4 sites that all got slapped by HCU because of this, yeah. So check out those and you'll see the connection.

Can you share more on recovery from Google core updates? ( A step by step guide)
I can't because it's not like a prescribed type of thing. Whatever you're reading/listening to is probably wrong. It's hard to reverse something from Le Goog.

Ok, what to do when content is stolen? In this case, the similarity will increase
Good Q. It doesn’t really work as well as that honestly. Try to steal my content!
So you want to say that if I write a unique article, and then my competitors steal it piece by piece, then I will not receive a penalty from Google? Do they determine the original source of the content?
@@oleksandrmolochan4097 re: originality - yes that’s my latest conclusion. That info gain is actually stored. Unless someone beats you.
This is a good thread honestly.
That is, if I write a unique article that is different from others, then I will get, for example, from 80 to 100 keyword score for it
Sounds like Surfer is in trouble. Lol
Used to work. Don’t no mo’.
Do you believe in the “Avalanche” method of writing articles that say…Kyle Roof…advocates to do?
Kyle Roof is one of the few that knows what he’s talking about.
