Danny Sullivan, the Google Search Liaison, mentioned on Mastodon that your content material doesn’t must be on one matter, one area of interest matter, for it to rank nicely. You possibly can write about numerous subjects in your web site. The primary factor, Danny mentioned, was that you need to write content material nonetheless you need in your folks and never for search engines like google.
This was in response to a weblog put up named Google’s Useful Content material Replace: What it means for nicheless blogs written Elizabeth Tai who identified within the Google suggestions for the Google useful content material replace it says “Are you producing numerous content material on totally different subjects in hopes that a few of it would carry out nicely in search outcomes?” That’s solely if you’re writing content material to only carry out nicely in search outcomes however when you write it in your folks, your readers, then don’t fret about it.

You possibly can, and may, write in your viewers nonetheless you need on no matter subjects you need. That is all our tips (I work for Google Search encourage folks to do. You completely can have a number of subjects inside one weblog. It does not need to be someway targeted on just one “area of interest” or space. Having numerous subjects does not model anybody as a “miscreant” as you concern in your put up. Write no matter nonetheless you need for folks, and also you’re high-quality.
From our weblog put up, I believe the one line you picked up on in our steerage about “Are you producing numerous content material on totally different subjects….” the important thing half in that’s the final half: “…in hopes that a few of it would carry out nicely in search outcomes.” IE: typically folks generate a variety of posts about a variety of subjects main as a result of they hopes that doing lots means one thing may be profitable in search. In case you’re writing something for folks, that is the first goal, you then’re high-quality.
