❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Comment Google différencie-t-il l'intention informationnelle de transactionnelle ?
Google utilise des algorithmes basés sur le comportement des utilisateurs et le contenu des pages, mais des erreurs d'interprétation sont possibles.
Qu'est-ce que cela signifie si mes pages fluctuent entre deux intentions ?
Cela peut indiquer que Google n'est pas certain de l'intention de la requête ou de la page. Vérifiez l'optimisation de votre contenu.
Faut-il réécrire le contenu de mes pages ?
Pas nécessairement. Commencez par améliorer le maillage interne et analyser les intentions des pages.
