Common keywords on website shown wrongly.
-
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.
The common keywords section displays a list of the most common keywords that Rank Math finds on your website including the HTML. This is a handy feature, as these are the same words that search engines are also looking at when they crawl your website. Since search engines can’t read, the frequency of the terms used, and the terms themselves are the only factors that will help search engines determine what your website is about.
If you see unfamiliar terms here, then you should consider updating the content on your website. Rank Math will also try to determine the topical relevancy of the terms it finds on your website and will show an indication about whether the intent of the website is clear or not.
I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.
None of this keywords appear in HTML, please kindly check before replying!
Hello,
These are the common keywords our tool suggests:
If you check your page’s source code and run a search for each of these, you will see plenty of mentions with these words:
That is why Rank Math is saying these are the common keywords.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
None of this is in content, shouldn’t Rank Math calculate only content words??
There is more mentions of DIV in there, what’s the point i dont get it???
Why would it count HTML markup and CSS words?
You think this is called proper keyword counting?What about NDASH and COPY? How much times is it mentioned? Are you joking on me?
It needs to be fixed!
Hello,
Our SEO Analyser only counts words inside the content, it does not count HTML tags and attributes, or code inside the CSS
styletag or the JSscripttag.It seems that the non-latin texts on your website all appear as HTML-encoded characters. For example the contents of your
h1title tag on your homepage looks like this in the source code:פרסום ממומן בגוגל ובפייסבוק לעסקיםThe common keywords finder tool in our SEO Analyser cannot decode such characters, that is why it cannot properly detect the common keywords on your site.
Since you have the
<meta charset="UTF-8">tag in the source code, there is no need to encode the Hebrew characters – the unencoded characters would work just as well in browsers, and it would also work in our Analysis. I’d recommend making this change on your site.Nevertheless, I have taken note of this, and we will look into how the common keywords test results can be improved in the future. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
