Examiners take seminars on writing headlines, writing in the third person and making full use of social media, all of which are Google manna.
Google favors sites written in third person?
- jrmurad 17y agoI'd never heard this before but I can see why naming the subject helps over using "I" or "we." Writing "Jason likes cake" on my website would tie me to the "cake" keyword moreso than "I like cake", right?
- wgj 17y agoI took it to indicate a bias against personal blogs, fiction, and other forms more likely to be in first person. That's in contrast to sources like Wikipedia, or virtually all news, which are in third person. Where it gets weird would be informally written blogs that are still using the first and second person.... or interviews perhaps?
