Update No.2: Google’s new Paraphrasing Algorithm
In the month of May 2018, Google published research on its new Paraphrasing Algorithm. The new algorithm will decide how content will be optimized for search engine in the coming days. Now, paraphrased content will be created by Google using extractive and abstractive summaries.
In the case of ‘Extractive Summaries’, the content will be taken out from articles, posts and blogs and it will be in accordance with the user’s intent. Snippets will be created using the prominent sentences of the articles whereas in the case of ‘Abstractive Summaries’, the content which was extracted will be paraphrased and it will be simple and easy for the user to understand.
The content is extracted from multiple pages but, now we cannot say whether the algorithm will get linked to those pages and whether the abstracted content is going to be Google article.
Impact of the new algorithm
Once the new algorithm is executed, the positive outcome will be Video SEO and the negative outcome will be Small Blogs. The neutral impact, however, will be “Money” and “Non-Informative” keywords.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row height=”auto”][vc_column][vc_column_text]There are really exciting news items regarding the latest techniques as well as strategies for SEO.
