What is YMYL?
Web pages those are focused on money and life events. The Google raters’ guideline defined them as:
– Pages that approach personal information, such as personal identification numbers, bank account numbers, drivers license numbers, etc., which could be used for identity theft.
– Pages used for commercial transactions, on which users might give their credit account or bank account data; for example, any page that enables you to buy something.
– Pages that offer medical or health information that could affect your physical well-being.
– Pages giving advice on major life decisions, such as pages on parenting, buying a home, a vehicle and so on.
– Pages giving advice on major life issues that could impact your future happiness and finances, such as pages giving legal or financial advice.
