The slidea Search Challenge

Teach your audience
to find slidea on Google.

Google currently autocorrects "slidea" to "slides" — a search algorithm issue that affects every brand competing with a high-volume keyword. Run a quick live activity with your audience to help correct this, and earn 3 months of slidea Pro for free.

The idea

A 2-minute live activity for your next session

The word "slides" gets over 3 million Google searches per month. Because "slidea" looks similar, Google's autocorrect treats it as a typo — even though Bing, DuckDuckGo, and Yahoo show slidea correctly. The fix is simple: when real users search for "slidea" and click the correction link, Google learns it's an intentional query.

Instead of asking individuals one by one, we're inviting presenters, educators, and team leads to turn this into a quick group activity. During your next presentation, meeting, or class — ask your audience to pull out their phones and search for "slidea" on Google together. It takes 30 seconds, and it makes for a great interactive moment.

Here's what your audience will see when they search:

google.com/search?q=slidea

How to run it

Four steps during your next session

Works in presentations, classrooms, team meetings, webinars — any setting where you have a live audience.

1

Ask your audience to open Google on their phones

During your session, pause for a quick interactive moment. Ask everyone to open google.com on their phones or laptops.

2

Have them search slidea and click the correction

Tell your audience: "Type slidea in Google. You'll see it autocorrects to slides. Now click the link that says 'Search instead for slidea.'" That's the action that sends the signal to Google.

3

Record a short video of the activity

While your audience is searching, record a quick video (phone is fine) showing you instructing the group and the audience participating. The video should show at least 10 people taking part. It can be as simple as a 30-second clip.

4

Upload the video below and claim your reward

Submit the video along with your name and email. We'll verify it and activate your 3 months of slidea Pro within 48 hours.

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Google's autocorrect weighs search volume heavily. "Slides" receives over 3 million monthly searches globally, so Google assumes any similar word is a typo. Other search engines like Bing, DuckDuckGo, and Yahoo already display slidea correctly — they blend both results. Google will update once enough users consistently search for "slidea" and click the correction. This is standard entity recognition behavior.
Any live setting with 10 or more people. Classroom lectures, corporate training sessions, team stand-ups, conference talks, webinars, workshops, community meetups — even a casual team meeting works. The key is that real people are searching simultaneously, and you capture a moment of the group doing it.
No. Absolutely not. Your video is used strictly as internal evidence to verify the challenge was completed. We review it once, confirm the audience size and activity, and then it stays in our secure internal records. It is never published, shared on social media, used in marketing, or distributed in any form.
Google's autocorrect updates based on volume and consistency of search signals. A single search has minimal impact. Ten or more simultaneous searches from the same session create a meaningful cluster of signals that Google's systems can detect. This is why the group format works better than individual searches.
Keep it simple: "Quick fun exercise — open Google on your phone, type 'SlideEgg,' and you'll notice Google thinks you meant 'slides.' Click the little link that says 'Search instead for SlideEgg.' Done! You just helped a real brand get properly recognized on Google." Most audiences find it interesting to see the autocorrect behavior firsthand.
Within 48 hours. Once we review your video and confirm it meets the requirements (you instructing, audience visible, 10+ people), we'll email a promo code that activates 3 months of SlideEgg Pro. No credit card required.
The Pro reward is one per person. But if you run presentations or classes regularly, every additional session genuinely helps. More groups searching means faster correction from Google. We appreciate every session — and frequent contributors may be invited to our extended partnership programs.
