My aunt's voice search habit made me rethink SEO

I always ignored voice search SEO thinking it was not important. But seeing my aunt struggle to find a local cafe using her smart speaker changed my mind. She used full questions, so I started adding those phrases to website content. Now those pages get more visits from people talking to their devices.

That exact phrasing? People actually say "dripping" out loud to their phone?

But do normal people really talk like @lily_henderson's plumbing example?

what kind of questions did you add? i did something similar for a client's plumbing site. before, the page just said "fix a leaky faucet." i added stuff like "how do i stop my kitchen faucet from dripping" and "why is my bathroom faucet leaking." sounds dumb but traffic from voice searches went up a lot. people just talk to their phones like they're asking a friend.
