Stop Words! Is it important to be included in the Keyword?
I recently learned one basic info about keywords, this info I actually got through a webinar @magistudio, thx for Jay.
Perhaps for most people are aware of it, but others are still not aware of it.
Now, the stop words are the following words (a , the , it , if , and , vs).
The idea is, you need to make sure that any keyword sentence is grammatically correct and is a correct phrase, use these stop words if they make sense for the sentence.
And you should not use any keywords if they exist In keyword research tools, and don't contain the stop words, if the sentence shows is meaningless without them, even if QSR/competition is low and has high traffic.
For example:
I) Don't use keyword (start fashion blog) "without a"
II) Instead, You need to use keyword (start a fashion blog) which is correct phrase.
Cause Google search engine, can notice these differences, and actually will rank the correct phrase better.
I hope this simple info can help few people there.

The "articles" a and the point are important! I use Grammarly free version all of the time for the little helps it does in my writing.
It makes my emails better, and my conversations here with other people make better grammatical sense, it corrects spelling when I need it corrected, or I choose to "ignore" the correction if I choose to emphasize the words I want to use, in order to make a point.
Basil, I was at that teaching also, just like Jeff Brown.
Jay is a great teacher! I really appreciate him after years of making Friday dates with Jay, and my classmates!
I love it when he gives up tips from his wisdom of nearly a decade and a half as our teacher!
He knows when to stop for a moment and throw us a question, or to respond to him with "Please!." It makes me laugh because it is funny and a sweet moment with Jay!
I'm going to follow you Basil. Hope you will follow me back,
Suzay
