TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

• [00:27] Today’s Topic: What You Should do About Pages That Rank But Don't Meet User Intent
• [00:55] People will bounce really quickly if your page doesn’t meet their needs.
• [01:26] Go to GSC and look at all the key phrases for which you are getting impressions (not just clicks!).
• [01:40] These key phrases aren’t keywords, they are problems; people are searching because they are trying to solve a problem.
• [02:14] If you find that your page is ranking for something it doesn’t entirely cover, you can make content that centers on those search terms.
• [02:30] Otherwise, you can take a risk and alter the content on the page. You may lose rankings, even though you are changing it to suit the key phrases for which you are ranking.
• [03:30] Search engines don’t put websites that meet their algorithm requirements at the top of the page, they put whatever site helps the user the most.
• [03:39] Even if the changes you are making aren’t the best for Google, but are good for the user, Google will catch up and increase your ranking.
• [04:00] Survey your users and tailor posts to their problems.
