If someone misspells our company name in Google, how do I get google to display
**Did You Mean: **xyz.
Our company name is difficult to spell and could be spelled multiple ways. What is the trick to this?
-
I believe the 'Did you mean' results are triggered by common misspellings, I don't think it would be feasible to manipulate it to correct the spelling of a small business name.

"Google uses spell checking software to check queries against common spellings of each word. When we determine an alternative query that we think might improve the search results, you'll see "Did you mean: (more common spelling)" at the top of your search results page. For example, if you search for [ foot ball ], at the top of the search results page, you'll see "Did you mean: football," a more common spelling of the game's name. Please note that our spell check feature is completely automated, and we cannot make manual changes to individual queries."

So I would say in the case of Businesses, it is still algo based, (no manual interaction available) and predictive based on search volume and alternate queries available in predictive algo and spell check software?

Getting indexed in Google Scholar
Hi all! We have a client who publishes scholarly research as a highly regarded non-profit. Their Publications aren't being indexed in Google Scholar 50% of the time and when they are, Google is pulling random stuff from a PDF vs. from the html page. Any advice on best practices is enormously appreciated

Getting indexed by Google scholar
Often my Google Scholar alerts result in exactly what I think they will: scholarly articles published in academic journals. However, today I got this completely non-scholarly article https://www.t-nation.com/training/the-exact-reps-that-make-you-grow and I have no idea why Google Scholar is indexing this site. I've read up on how to get indexed by Google Scholar, and this website doesn't seem to have the necessary requirements. I'm curious for anyone whose clients or industry need to get indexed by Google Scholar, what has worked for you?

Searching google without bias
i read a tip once and can't find the reference to that tip. It had to do with searching google without including the history of your searches to bias the result. The user was suppose to put a code at the end of the URL, like &pw or something like that. Anyone hear of this?
