How to Rank for Misspelled Keywords?

    I came across a some misspelled keywords that have higher searches than the correct spelling. How can I rank for them without inputting incorrect spellings into the website?

    Thanks!

    I was just thinking now since SEs display the more common (or correct) spellings of search terms, that misspelled keywords don't matter. Is this correct?

    I'm noticing the same, no use to work on miss spell words, google automatically correct the spell and give result accordingly.

    Yeah, you are right!


    If you rank for a misspelled word you will have a huge bouce rate because visitators who land on you page may not have any interest in your website.

    I don't recommend doing this, was mispellings are penalized by Google.
    Instead, the best way to get traffic from mispelt keywords, is to use paid Adwords. I realise it's an investment in money, but most people who mispell want to get to their target url without retyping (human nature - lazyness). And so if you have a Paid Ad, sitting there at the top, ready for them to click to get to where they want, it will be good bang for buck :)

    Of course... you need to have a good sales funnel to make the most of this paid traffic ofc.!

    100% spot on. I also agree with Kim S. Anytime I've experimented with misspellings I've been burned.

    Even if you do rank for misspelled keyword- google does give you the option to click on the correct spelling( right on top) – so most people go ahead and click on the correct spelling- thus navigating away from your particular keyword. That’s why its best to stay away from misspelled keywords!!
    Hope this helps

    yeah image and video perhaps would be the only way to get traffic to misspellings - never really experimented with them much myself
