Google released a new version of its Quality Rater Guidelines. One of the big changes, IMO: The Relationship between Page Quality and Needs Met In the new version, High-Quality pages (often big brands) have less of an advantage on Needs Met Is this to level the playing field?

10.6 million clicks to 0 overnight in less than 3 months. Just crazy. @searchliaison @JohnMu all of my inboxes are full of stories like these from publishers all over the world. Not just Discover but Top Stories too. I understand there were core updates and a glitch… – at Tremblay-en-France, France

@lilyraynyc After the update, our website simply died and doesn't come back anymore. First, it dropped from Google News and later from Discovery. Years of hard work and dedication thrown in the trash, unfortunately, and the worst part is not knowing what to do

SEO Tip: want to make your eCommerce website stand out more in Google's search results? Make sure to pay attention to the Merchant Listings report in Google Search Console, with two new items in particular having a big influence. The report allows you to monitor whether Google is able to pick up on both your returns policy and shipping details for pages. This data can then be reflected almost site-wide (for both product and category pages) in addition to stock availability, pricing, reviews stars, and more. In my experience, Google can pick up on this data through making it available either in your Structured Data or through your Merchant Center settings. It is however important to note that if your settings are correct in Merchant Center for each, Google Search Console will continue to show each as warnings (if the Structured Data isn’t also reflected). So if your settings are correct, you can ignore the warnings in GSC. When working with clients in the eCommerce space, I regularly find that they are not making use of this new enhancement for their pages. So make sure to check! At the moment, the enhancement is only available in the US, but Google has said that they are looking to expand its coverage in the near future. #seo #searchengineoptimization #google

In many places around the world, people commonly speak & search in more than one language. To best serve them, Google uses a variety of ways to automatically determine languages to show search results in. Learn more about our work in this area: developers.google.com/search… Our post also notes we’ve made a series of updates over the past few months to better match results to the language someone searches in. These updates are not specific to a particular language or region but instead will help anyone searching in multiple languages all around the world. Thanks to all who gave us examples in different languages to test our improvements with, including Catalan speakers and @digitalencatala

Look at it this way..... Content creation is like heating a can of soup. You should add your spices to it because it has no flavor as is.
