๐ What Are Neural Nets for Google?
Neural Nets are related to Neural Matching and help Google organize search topics in a topical hierarchy ๐. When Google understands a user's search intent through Neural Matching, it places that intent within a specific topic and sub-topic. Neural Nets connect different sub-topics and contexts to cover all possible meanings of a search query. Neural matching connects queries to relevant answers, while neural nets support the main context by covering different search intents and sub-topics.
๐งฉ Neural Nets and Subtopics
Neural Nets help Google understand how different topics and sub-topics are related. This improves search results and ensures users get the most relevant information ๐.
๐ Neural Nets in SEO
Neural Nets play a key role in Semantic SEO, which focuses on:
- โ Covering all related topics, search intents, and contexts
- โ Creating high-quality content with relevant keywords
- โ Building contextual internal links ๐
- โ Improving Topical Authority for better rankings
By following this strategy, websites can enhance their visibility in Google search ๐.
๐ Googleโs Topical Categories
Googleโs Natural Language Processing (NLP) API organizes information into different topical categories ๐. Understanding these categories helps create content that aligns with Googleโs way of classifying information, improving SEO performance.
Example:
Imagine Google is like Hogwarts Library, and Neural Nets work like the Sorting Hat ๐งโโ๏ธโorganizing search topics into the right Houses (categories and subtopics).
When someone searches for "Harry Potter spells", Googleโs Neural Matching understands the search intent and places it under a broad category like "Magic in Harry Potter". But Neural Nets go even deeper, breaking it down into specific subtopics like:
- ๐ Types of Spells: Charms, Hexes, Curses
- ๐งโโ๏ธ Famous Spells: Expelliarmus, Lumos, Avada Kedavra
- ๐ Spell Creators: Who invented them? (e.g., Severus Snape and Sectumsempra)
Example 2:
Imagine you open a food delivery app like Uber Eats, Zomato, or DoorDash ๐๐ฑ. Youโre hungry and type "pizza" in the search bar.
Now, instead of showing random results, the app organizes the food into:
- ๐ฝ๏ธ Main Category: Italian Food
-
๐ Subcategories:
- Thin Crust Pizza (Neapolitan, New York Style)
- Cheesy Pizza (Stuffed Crust, Four Cheese)
- Meaty Pizza (Pepperoni, BBQ Chicken)
- Veggie Pizza (Margherita, Veggie Supreme)
