Don’t Forget That Web Searchers Can’t Spell

It’s no secret that people who search the web for information sometimes slip up in their typing.  Maybe they type in “bankruptcy,” maybe they type in “bankrupcy.”  Either way, it’s important for you to consider the options when doing your SEO and pay-per-click advertising.

Why?  Well, chances are pretty good that the cost-per-click for “banjruptcy” is significantly less than “bankruptcy.”  And just because someone slipped up when hitting the “k” key doesn’t mean they aren’t looking for your service.

Just to show that people misspell stuff all the time, check out this post on the top misspellings on Yahoo.

    Zillow’s values are very unpredictable. The range that is given is much too broad. Actual appraisals compared to Zillow values for Western MA property show Zillow too inaccurate to use
