How To Use Grammarly Pro | Best Tips To Improve Your Content Writing Skills!

Hey guys, it's Dan here, and today we'll be showing you how to use Grammarly to improve the grammar of your articles from an SEO standpoint. The first thing you need to do is get the Grammarly for Chrome extension. It's really simple to get—just install it on Chrome, and it makes the process a lot easier. The next thing you need to do once you've done that is actually find an article that you're looking to improve the grammar of. Now, this might be a really old article that you wrote a while ago that you want to change for SEO purposes, or it might be a brand new one that you think you’ve made a few mistakes on and might need tweaking. Whatever it is, just grab the article and go from there. For this example, we're going to go for this one written a while ago, Making Money Online — Are You Crushing It? As you can see, it starts off with something from the New Year… we’re currently in October, so that suggests it's about a 10-month-old article that probably needs a few tweaks. We’re going to grab the URL, go up to the Grammarly extension in the corner, and press New Document. That takes you through to the new document page. You have to paste in the article itself and the title. So we'll scroll down to the bottom of the article, grab all the content, copy it, and paste it into Grammarly. Then add the title at the top. Once that's done, the process is complete and the article is fully loaded in. As you can see, it's popping up with quite a few notifications—which is exactly what Grammarly does. On the right-hand side, you’ve got tabs for correctness, clarity, engagement, delivery, style guide—basically, everything it suggests you tweak within the article. Correctness is spelling, grammar, punctuation. This will probably be your most common set of errors. Most people make some grammar, spelling, or punctuation mistakes throughout their articles. Grammarly lets you go through and fix them one by one. For example, here it highlights a word where the issue is simply that it needs a comma. Fixing that improves the grammar and improves your content score too. The overall score for this article is 83, which isn’t too bad, but there’s definitely room for improvement. As you make changes, the score will lift. Here, Grammarly suggests “let’s” instead of “lets”—so we change that. With the brand word “Fatrank,” Grammarly doesn’t recognise it, so it suggests changing it, which we obviously won’t do. What we can do is capitalise the F and R to make it look more branded. This doesn’t improve the score, but it helps visually. A lot of these red issues are commas or small punctuation fixes, and making those tweaks gradually raises the score. I’m going to quickly go through all of them now and then come back. Okay guys, that’s done now. Just from changing the correctness issues, we’ve gone from an 83 to a 96 overall score, which is a ridiculous change. Google actually sees this. If you have a lot of little errors in your article, it can affect how you rank for certain keywords. If there’s a mistake around a keyword you’re targeting, Google might not recognise it properly and might not rank you for it. Having an article that’s better written, with fewer errors, gives Google more confidence that the content is high quality. So just by fixing these small things, we’ve gone from 83 to 96, and it took about five minutes. You can see we still have 19 alerts remaining for correctness, but not all of them need to be changed. For example, names like “Derek Yazwer” are correct, so we’ll leave them. Same with words like “guru” or certain phrases that Grammarly doesn’t fully understand from context. Some suggestions simply don’t make sense, so you user your own judgement. Next is the clarity section. For example, it highlights “making seven figures being sat on a beach.” We can tweak that to “making seven figures just sat on the beach,” which reads better. With clarity, Grammarly highlights unclear areas but doesn’t always give suggestions—you decide whether it needs changing. Some sentences make perfect sense as they are. If a sentence is clear to the reader, you can ignore the suggestion. Then the engagement section. For example, “his knowledge on cryptocurrency is great.” Grammarly suggests “excellent,” which is more specific and sharpens the writing, so we’ll go with that. Another line has repeated wording—“how many times they fail before they finally made one dollar.” We can tweak it to “how many times they failed before finally making one dollar.” Finally, delivery. One example says “no one is gonna remember what car they drove,” and Grammarly suggests changing “gonna” to “going to,” so we fix that. There aren’t many more tweaks needed. You can see the calculating score—now it’s a 97 out of 100. Realistically, I could probably push this to 98 or 99, but going from 83 to 97 is a massive jump. Google should notice this. Improving your articles like this across your website—whether they’re old or new—will really help with rankings. And it’s really simple to do. Once you're done, it’s simply a case of copying and pasting the improved article back into your website. In around 10 minutes, you’ve massively improved the content. That’s basically it, guys. Thanks a lot for watching. Hope this makes sense, and I’ll see you guys later.
