Welcome to the YourTextGuru guide on understanding the optimization scores necessary for your content. This guide will help you comprehend the SOSEO and DSEO scores to ensure your content is well-optimized without triggering search engine penalties.

Understanding SOSEO and DSEO Scores

SOSEO (Score d'Optimisation SEO)

• Definition: The SOSEO score represents the optimization level of your content based on the use and context of the top terms.
• Key Metrics:
• Top Terms: Focus on using the top 21 terms, which carry the most weight in your content.
• Contextualization: Include contextual words as recommended in the guide.
• Recommended Range: Aim for a score within the recommended interval, typically between 105 and 116.
• Calculation:
• Based on the average optimization of the top three results on the search engine results page (SERP).
• Avoid exceeding the upper limit to prevent triggering the transition rank algorithm, which can lead to a three-month penalty period where changes should be avoided.

DSEO (Danger SEO)

• Definition: The DSEO score helps identify potential keyword stuffing, which can negatively impact your rankings.
• Key Metrics:
• Keyword Usage: Monitor the frequency of top terms. Excessive use of a term can increase the DSEO score.
• Color Indicators: Words in the orange or red areas signify potential overuse.
• Recommended Range: Stay below the average of the five highest values on the SERP.
• Implications:
• A high DSEO score suggests keyword stuffing and can trigger a red cross indicator, signaling a risk for ranking penalties.

Best Practices for Optimization

1. Balancing SOSEO and DSEO:
• Use the top terms effectively but avoid overusing any specific term to keep the DSEO score within safe limits.
• Follow the contextualization recommendations to naturally integrate keywords into your content.
2. Monitoring Scores:
• Regularly check your SOSEO and DSEO scores during the content creation process.
• Make adjustments as needed to stay within the recommended ranges.
3. Avoiding Over-Optimization:
• Do not artificially inflate your SOSEO score by stuffing keywords.
• Aim for natural and contextually relevant use of terms to maintain content quality and readability.
