Hahaha you work for the competition!
Yes, the complete site is in Spanish, however, most of my users are not searching with accents, which is the real issue here. frustrated

Google and keywords with and without accents. How to approach optimization for both?posted in Intermediate & Advanced SEO
This is more of a problem for people optimizing for keywords in spanish, french, german and such.
It is well known that SERPs for keywords with and without accents are different. However, I haven't been able to discover how do I make the incorrectly misspelled keywords rank without messing up the site's content.
Another fact to take into account is that more than half the searches made in these languages are done without accents because, let's face it, it's just too much work.
An example of my specific problem: The misspelled keyword "cursos de ingles" is currently ranking higher than the correctly spelled keyword "cursos de inglés". However, the misspelled keyword "clases de ingles" is not ranking at all and the correctly spelled keyword "clases de inglés" is on the first page. How is this possible?
Now, how can I optimize the misspelled keywords to rank higher without misspelling the content on my site?
Thank you!
