Google Search Quality Rater: Wie man Besuche erkennt und sich vorbereitet

Lerne, wie du feststellst, ob ein Google Search Quality Rater deine Seite besucht hat und wie du dich optimal auf solch einen Besuch vorbereitest.

What exactly is a Google Search Quality Rater?

Google's Search Quality Raters are individuals who rate websites to improve the quality of search results. While these ratings don't directly influence rankings, they do feed into Google's algorithm updates. Therefore, it's mega important to know how they work.

When do they visit your site?

Imagine your website suddenly shows up in Google's top 10 search results for a hotly contested keyword. That could be the moment a Quality Rater stops by. He then checks whether your site really has the quality that Google wants for its users.

How do I recognize their visit?

Easier than you think: Look into the referral traffic of your website. Do you see the domain raterhub.com there? Bingo, that's a clear sign of a visit. RaterHub is the platform where raters give their feedback on visited sites.

How do I prepare for this?

The secret lies in the Google Search Quality Rater Guidelines. This document describes exactly how raters evaluate websites. One critical point is EEAT:

  1. Experience: does the author have practical experience on the topic?
  2. Expertise: Does the author have specialized knowledge?
  3. Authoritativeness: How recognized is the author or site?
  4. Trustworthiness: Is the site reliable and trustworthy?
  5. Trustworthiness is particularly important here, especially for sites that deal with sensitive topics.

What happens after your visit?

There are no hard and fast rules. But some have observed that their top 10 rankings for certain keywords disappear after 10-14 days after a Rater visit. Of course, this could be coincidence, but keeping an eye on it doesn't hurt.

Conclusion

Visiting a Google Search Quality Rater is no reason to panic. But it does show that your website is becoming important. The key is to always focus on quality and know the Google Guidelines. That way you'll be best prepared for any visit.

Good luck and rock on! 🚀
