Do the number of revisions on a Wordpress post really affect SEO?
Post Body
I'm a content writer. One of my main clients is an SEO professional, and I just put up a post on one of his clients' sites (a localized sewer repair company in the Northeast).
When I finished, I had a total of 8 revisions on the post. He asked me to hit the update button repeatedly to get it up to 30 revisions. So, I'm deleting the first word, hitting "Update," then putting it back, hitting "Update," rinse and repeat.
This feels useless, but I trust the guy to know what he's talking about. How, exactly, does having a bunch of revisions on a brand new post affect SEO? I'm just curious, and this seemed like the place to ask.
