Recent trends that you may be encountering more of as search engine optimization (SEO) strategies are adding keywords to your domain, title, and body content. This is called keyword stuffing or spam SEO.

Keyword stuffing happens when someone adds too many words that mean nothing but contribute little to no value for their site or others’ sites that link to theirs.

It can look very obvious if you watch it happen occasionally. But doing this consistently will get your website banned or heavily penalized by Google and other major search engines!

Google specifically calls out sites with heavy keyword stuffing in its “Quality Score Basics” article. They say:

As we mentioned earlier, one common way webmasters try to manipulate their rankings is by containing excessive amounts of keywords in the HTML source and/or metadata (like titles and meta descriptions).

These tactics are often referred to as "keyword stuffing" or "overoptimization." By using excess keywords, they're trying to influence how much weight these features carry in calculating quality and relevance for their pages.

Luckily, there's an easy way to check if this has happened on your own site. You can use the Search Traffic Tools at SEMrush to gain insights into some key metrics related to SEO. These include Keywords To Body Content Ratio which quantifies just how many times a specific word appears relative to the whole body of text on a page.

Make a list of your favorite foods

Now, you’ll need to determine if there are any keywords in those favorites. If yes, then make sure to include them when creating your new search.

For example, if one of your favorites is chicken wings, maybe test out “How to cook the best buttery-tasting chicken wing tips.” or “ Tips for cooking the perfect crispy chicken wings.” as searches.

By including these keywords in your search, it may push down the normal results for the article because they no longer fit what people are looking for.

Make a list of your favorite hobbies

If you feel like your search performance is being influenced by searches that are totally unrelated to what you want to achieve, make a list of your favorite hobbies!
You might know someone who does something really well and they’re very passionate about it, so when they do their thing everyone comes together under one common goal — creating an experience for people to enjoy.

This could be anything from reading a book or article to listening to an album you have waiting for weeks to find yourself doing it again. Yours may be watching a movie or show you have been wanting to watch for a while.

By introducing into your life things that motivate you, you can start investing in those areas more seriously – which will help you relax and focus on other things.

These investments should be related to your career, but not necessarily connected with how much money you pay for them.

Make a list of your favorite places

The next step in pro-lapse search engine optimization is making sure you are not using Google as an alternative to these sites for the same information.

By adding the “like” button, or creating a page full of reviews from all over the place, you are taking resources away from the actual website that deserves credit for the success.

This also means that people will be searching online looking for answers at your site instead of theirs!

It is very important to maintain a good reputation so do your research and find out if there have been any complaints before giving our service a try.

Make a list of your friends

Along with your social media accounts, you can also make a listing of people that are close to you. People who live near you or work with you may have access to private information about you, so be sure to review their profiles, see what they share, and check out their past interactions!

By looking through their profile pictures and videos, it’ll help paint a picture of who these individuals are as people. Looking at their bios will tell you more about them, but again, we recommend being careful how much detail you give.

If there is one person you feel is no longer trustworthy, unfriend them and block them so you don’t accidentally click “follow” in an attempt to contact them. You’re probably already aware of some red flags, but just by looking at their photos and posts, you’ll never know for sure if those signs exist until you invest some time into studying their activity.

Do a thing that makes you happy

Recent trends are becoming more popular, which is great! But how do you get rid of them? Try doing something that makes you feel happier and healthier to play these searches up.

For example, if you love reading, then search for books or book summaries. If you like listening to music, look up songs with lyrics. If you enjoy baking, find recipes for new dishes!

The more you expose yourself to different things, the less people will show up in results for those patterns.

Eat your favorite food

Sometimes, even after trying every trick imaginable, you just can’t seem to get rid of those annoying search terms. You spend all day long doing work and then suddenly you realize that you are looking up something totally unrelated!

It is very frustrating when this happens, especially if you have invested time into creating content or performing services for others.

If you want to stop getting distracted by unwanted searches, try experimenting with changing your eating habits. What kind of foods do you like? Are there any particular recipes that you enjoy making? If so, make sure to include some in your diet once a week.

Your body reacts to what it eats, which means one meal may help reduce internet searching due to positive changes in hormones and blood glucose levels. Having more frequent meals also helps keep your hunger at bay, limiting the amount of time it takes to find the elusive “Google-free moment."

Another way to prevent your computer from going down fad diets are to simply not allow yourself to look up anything related to dieting. This includes browsing through nutrition sites, shopping online for products, and looking up information about ingredients used to make the desired snack/meal.

Do your favorite hobby

While doing your favorite hobbies is great, it can also pose a problem for you when they become too popular. People seem to have fun watching you play sports or go to concerts, so more people do the same thing.

This is called “trending” behavior because it follows what other people are doing. When this happens, people start looking up how to do these things on YouTube, Google, etc.

These search terms are usually pretty catchy and easy to remember, making them perfect keywords to use in SEO (search engine optimization). This means that instead of coming from your domain name or your website, these clicks come from the keyword(s) used to find you online.

It becomes very difficult to get rid of this trend due to all of the traffic! This is why it is important to maintain your privacy settings, keep your personal information private, and create content that no one has seen before.

By doing those three things, you will be much easier to remove trending searches.

Go to your favorite place

One way to get rid of trending searches is to go to the same location every day and do something you have been practicing for hours.

Practice yoga or meditation, take a long shower, wash all of your windows, or whatever your personal passion is.

Do this at the same time each day and soon enough, your search trends will drop down.

This works because your subconscious mind learns how to associate doing one thing with getting rid of another thing. In this case, it’ll learn that going through your routine removes the need to look up the symptoms of autism. Or that washing your windows makes your house seem more put together and organized, so people will think your house is bigger than it really is.

And even though they may not know what autistic spectrum disorder is, people will assume that someone who looks like they are in control of their emotions must be smart and organized.
