Formatting Issues When Copying/Pasting Text from Google Docs to WordPress - Added Span Tags

The problem: When I copy text from Google Docs and paste it into a WordPress text editor, a bunch of extra "span style" tags. These add extra code to your page and can cause formatting issues as you continue to edit the code. You may not even realize this is happening if you regularly copy and paste text from a Google Doc to WordPress.
The solution: you'll have to watch the video to find the solution!

Does span tags affect page performance or SEO benefits? What happens if these extra tags remain in place?

[@Webeminence]

I don't think span tags have much effect on SEO. I supposed if they were over used and cluttered up the code, they could potentially be a problem. But if they are used in a normal way, probably not a bigger deal. There are usually better ways than using span tags though like CSS.

Hello sir, How to keep same text color while copy pasting from other source to wordpress blog?

[@Webeminence]

It would usually copy formatting depending on the source. However, you will also get other junk in the code so I usually prefer to paste as plain text and then add formatting
