Making Money from your not-so-smart users

Filed under: Hot tips, Stuff I learned — Cardoso @ 7:29 am

This is not a scam, but it’s so easy that almost sound like one.

I wrote an article on my professional blog (sorry, Portuguese-only) with a simple, “do nothing” strategy that attacks more users to your blog.

Let’s face it. People can’t spell. The “doodz” generation, with their “like this and like that” is not, like, smart, like, you know. Like. They can’t spell banana because they don’t know when to stop. Don’t matter if you write to an audience that does not write like that, sooner or later the kids WILL arrive and leave a comment like “in ur base killing ur d00dz“. Should you erase it?

NEVER!

Google don’t care if people can’t spell, it will index everything that it thinks it’s relevant. Sometimes Google can’t recognize a typo, and will think it’s just a weird word. And will index it. A lot of weird typos from people who leave comments on my articles are indexed, and lead other readers who write the same weird typos directly to my blog.

It means you should use typos and weird word yourself? No, not at all. Just don’t get mad about the not-so-smart people who leave such comments on your blog. They are not alone.
