Default Spelling And Grammar Mistakes Impact On SEO ?

Hey,

I was reading somewhere that spelling and grammar mistakes may be a factor in the Google algorithm...

Do any of you guys buy this thing ?

I assume a site couldn't get penalized because of this... at least not because of grammar..

Here's one for you Go0oglle => you suk !

Regardless of what Google thinks, why would you want spelling and grammar mistakez on your site?

People who search make typing and spelling errors in their search terms and it can be a technique to catch that search traffic.

Sebastien, can't say I've heard that spelling and grammar are a ranking factor beyond mis-typing a primary keyword in a page means that page is less effectively optimised for that keyword. Can you remember where you read this, was it a reliable source?

Multiple spelling and grammar errors will definitely limit the number of quality links you're able to get.

Mupha,

I don't exactly remember where I saw this initially but I just did a quick Google search and found the following article..

Spelling Grammar SEO (from the search engine journal 2005)

This guy implies that they *do* have an impact.

I wouldn't expect this to a substantial factor though, but I'm not Google.

Spelling mistakes happen, so I would not expect a few of them matter.

A common spelling mistake or typo can get you some traffic though, so in a sense intentional spelling mistakes can be thought of as gray hat SEO.

Default Grammar

Grammar is not an issue, but spelling is. If Grammar was an issue, I would never get any traffic.

Shoemoney did big article on this issue months ago.
