Im SEO/GEO-Monatsrückblick für den Februar 2026 stelle ich 13 aktuelle relevante Themen vor: Welche Informationen liefert der neue AI Performance Report? Was hat Google mit dem WebMCP vorgestellt? Und welche Neuerungen gibt's bei den AI Overviews? Das und viel mehr gibt's hier in komprimierter Form. AI/GEO [1] https://www.seo-suedwest.de/10637-ranking-verluste-google-geht-jetzt-moeglicherweise-gegen-eigennuetzige-listicles-vor.html Der Aufbau eigener Listicles ist seit einiger Zeit eine fast schon etablierte GEO-Maßnahme. Wie sich jetzt zeigt, geht zumindest Google wohl dagegen vor + hat entsprechende Websites abgewertet. [2] https://searchengineland.com/bing-webmaster-tools-ai-performance-report-468751 In den Bing Webmaster Tools gibt es jetzt einen neuen „AI Report", der anzeigt, mit welchen Seiten und wie oft man von der KI (Copilot) zitiert wird. Klickzahlen gibt es leider nicht, aber zumindest sieht man so, welche Inhalte gut funktionieren. Mehr dazu: Search Camp Episode 420 [3] https://www.seroundtable.com/google-webmcp-40918.html Google hat eine Preview von WebMCP (Web Model Context Protocol) vorgestellt – ein Baustein für das agentische Web. Dabei kann man für die eigene Website relativ einfach Schnittstellen anbieten, damit Agenten Aktionen ausführen können. [4] https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-says-links-will-be-more-visible-in-ai-overviews/567719/ Google hat die Darstellung von Links in AI Overviews verbessert. Dabei werden in den AIOs Links angezeigt, sobald man sich mit der Maus über die Links bewegt. Insgesamt könnte das zu einer Verbesserung der CTR führen. [5] https://www.sistrix.de/news/ai-overviews-in-deutschland-so-stark-sinken-die-klickraten-wirklich/ SISTRIX hat aktuelle Daten zu den Auswirkungen der AIOs vorgestellt. Demnach hängt der Klickverlust stark von der jeweiligen Branche ab (hoch: Gesundheit, niedrig: Kochrezepte). Die CTR der ersten Position verändert sich von durchschnittlich 27 % auf 11 %. [6] https://www.seo-suedwest.de/10647-chatgpt-verwendet-laut-bericht-produkte-aus-google-shopping.html ChatGPT nutzt nach einer Analyse von SEMrush bei der Anzeige von Produkten Daten von Google. Klare Empfehlung: Wer in ChatGPT mit seinen Produkten gut gefunden werden möchte, sollte also derzeit primär auf die Optimierung für Google setzen. [7] https://www.growth-memo.com/p/the-science-of-how-ai-pays-attention Kevin Indig hat insgesamt 1,2 Millionen Suchergebnisse analysiert, um herauszufinden, wie AI Text „verdaut". Kurze Antwort: ChatGPT bedient sich eigentlich überall im Text, um zitierfähige Inhalte zu finden. Gut für ChatGPT sind vor allem die fünf Grundregeln: Definitive language, Conversational question-answer structure, Entity richness, Balanced sentiment. Crawling [8] https://searchengineland.com/google-biggest-crawling-issues-468186 Google hat veröffentlicht, welche Arten von URLs beim Crawlen am häufigsten zu Problemen führen. Die Hälfte aller Fälle entfällt dabei auf Faceted Navigation (Filterseiten), 25 % kommen von Action-Parametern. [9] https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/googlebot?hl=en#how-googlebot-accesses-your-site und https://2mo.charles-migaud.fr/?lang=en und https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SriA8lB3MXY Google hat klargestellt, dass von HTML-Dokumenten nur die ersten 2 MB, von PDF-Dokumenten nur die ersten 64 MB verarbeitet werden. Wer mehr über das Thema Crawling erfahren möchte, darf auch gerne in die Podcast-Episode Search Off the Record Episode 106 reinhören. [10] https://searchengineland.com/cloudflare-markdown-for-agents-469246 Cloudflare bietet ein neues Produkt an, das „on the fly" aus HTML-Seiten Markdown-Code bereitstellen kann, wenn ein KI-Crawler auf die Website zugreift. Das sorgt zumindest für geringere Netzlast, kann aber auch zu Problemen führen. Mehr dazu: Search Camp Episode 422 Sonstiges [11] https://www.searchpilot.com/resources/case-studies/do-emojis-in-meta-descriptions-influence-click-through-behaviour Hilft ein Emoji in der Meta Description, um die CTR zu verbessern? Bei einem kleinen Test (nur ein Emoji) scheint das nicht so zu sein. [12] https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2026/02/discover-core-update?hl=en Im Februar gab es ein Discover Core Update – also ein Update, das sich nur auf Discover bezieht. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf lokalen Inhalten und der Reduzierung von Clickbait. [13] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IM3UAX3MhnI Ein interessantes Thema zum Schluss: Braucht man bald überhaupt noch eine Website? Darum geht es im Google-Podcast Search Off the Record in Episode 104. Kurze Antwort: hängt davon ab.
Ask Me Anything and takeaways of the day featuring Andy, Randy, Beau, and Abe.
Emoji Speak: Communication and Behaviours on Social Media (Bloomsbury, 2023) by Dr. Jieun Kiaer provides an in-depth discussion of emoji use in a global context, this volume presents the use of emoji as a hugely important facet of computer-mediated communication, leading Dr. Kiaer to coin the term 'emoji speak'. Exploring why and how emojis are born, and the different ways in which people use them, this book highlights the diversity of emoji speak. Presenting the results of empirical investigations with participants of British, Belgian, Chinese, French, Japanese, Jordanian, Korean, Singaporean, and Spanish backgrounds, it raises important questions around the complexity of emoji use. Though emojis have become ubiquitous, their interpretation can be more challenging. What is humorous in one region, for example, might be considered inappropriate or insulting in another. Whilst emoji use can speed up our communication, we might also question whether they convey our emotions sufficiently. Moreover, far from belonging to the youth, people of all ages now use emoji speak, prompting Kiaer to consider the future of our communication in an increasingly digital world. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

This week we're breaking down something way more serious than it should be… emojis. The ones we're currently overusing. The ones we retired without warning. The ones we refuse to touch. And the ones we're trying to bring back into our daily rotation. Why did we all collectively stop using certain emojis? Who decided the laughing-crying face was millennial coded? And is the red heart too intense now? We have thoughts. Then of course we wrap up with our favorite segments: ✨ What's currently saving our lives ✨ Our weekly influence picks (because you know we will convince you to buy something) It's unserious, slightly chaotic, and way too passionate for a conversation about tiny digital faces.
Just last week, we asked about Phil Spencer and why he's been so quiet lately. Now we know why! Also, OneDrive for the Mac is finally going to look like it belongs on the Mac.

After years of ignoring and maligning Windows, Microsoft has finally woken up and is making some happy noises. Last week, we discussed how Microsoft plans to improve the quality of Windows and that there are already many signs of that work in various security features and new OneDrive Folder Backup changes - plus those two new direct reports to Nadella. Then, Microsoft announced its Windows Baseline Security Mode and User Transparency and Consent initiatives with questions about the timing. And now, Microsoft just explained Windows 11 version 26H1, and it's not like 24H2 at all despite being tied to Snapdragon X2 silicon.Something happened ... and that something is tied to 26H1 26H1: Only for Snapdragon X2, a "scoped release," based on a "different core" from 24H2 and 25H2 You cannot upgrade 24H2 or 25H2 to 26H1 You cannot upgrade 26H1 to 26H2 (!) - instead, those on 26H1 "will have a path to update in a future Windows release." - Is that future Windows release Windows 12? Probably 24H2, 25H2, and 26H1 will all have the same user-facing features, this has been the case with all support Windows (11) versions for 2+ years (Remember, this is not what happened with 24H2. Shipped early on Snapdragon X1, but was made available to all Windows 11 PCs later that year) So why is this happening now?

After years of ignoring and maligning Windows, Microsoft has finally woken up and is making some happy noises. Last week, we discussed how Microsoft plans to improve the quality of Windows and that there are already many signs of that work in various security features and new OneDrive Folder Backup changes - plus those two new direct reports to Nadella. Then, Microsoft announced its Windows Baseline Security Mode and User Transparency and Consent initiatives with questions about the timing. And now, Microsoft just explained Windows 11 version 26H1, and it's not like 24H2 at all despite being tied to Snapdragon X2 silicon.Something happened ... and that something is tied to 26H1 26H1: Only for Snapdragon X2, a "scoped release," based on a "different core" from 24H2 and 25H2 You cannot upgrade 24H2 or 25H2 to 26H1 You cannot upgrade 26H1 to 26H2 (!) - instead, those on 26H1 "will have a path to update in a future Windows release." - Is that future Windows release Windows 12? Probably 24H2, 25H2, and 26H1 will all have the same user-facing features, this has been the case with all support Windows (11) versions for 2+ years (Remember, this is not what happened with 24H2.

In this week's episode, we examine a specific brand of dark femininity that feels like a vestige of 2016, embodied through dramatic imagery of luxury accessories, cartoon vixens, and predatory wildlife, and expressed through a paradoxical strain of man-hating male centrism. We discuss this aesthetic's positioning in opposition to the Clean Girl and how interpersonal dynamics popularized by sex work inform its understanding of power and money. We also investigate why the dark feminine resonates so deeply among women of the so-called “Latina belt,” drawing connections to chola culture and Arabic literary traditions to explore how this affect functions as a negotiation between patriarchal tradition and Western ideas about female sexuality and autonomy. Finally, we identify the aesthetic's greatest arbiters and muses, from Helmut Newton and Riccardo Tisci to Maddy Perez and BLACKPINK's Lisa.Links: Image board Examples on Instagram, TikTokRalph Bakshi: A Forgotten PioneerRihanna - B***h Better Have My Money (Explicit) (Official Music Video)BbyMutha - RULES (Official Music Video)Why Men Love B*****s: From Doormat to Dreamgirl by Sherry Argov“How the Cholo Clown Became the Face of L.A.” by Frank Rojas for LA Times (“Smile Now, Cry Later” history)Viral Alexa Demie Yo Voy clip Ghazal History – Encyclopaedia IranicaBLACKPINK's Lisa introduces “Vixi” @shopnou_ on Instagram“The Wild World of Chris von Wangenheim” by Daisy Woodward for AnOtherChris von Wanghenheim on TheFashionSpot“Pomellato Revives Helmut Newton's Daring '80s Campaigns in a New Show” by Annie Davidson Watson for WRicardo Tisci by Donatella Versace for InterviewGivenchy Fall 2011 Menswear on Vogue RunwayGivenchy Spring 2011 Ready-to-Wear on Vogue RunwayGivenchy Fall 2011 Ready-to-Wear on Vogue Runway This is a public episode.

What Emoji Would You Request to Add by Maine's Coast 93.1
Send us a textAllow me to point something out…From Medieval manuscripts to 19th-century advertising, modern interfaces, and emoji culture, this episode follows the curious history of the iconic pointing hand, commonly referred to as the “manicule”. Inspired by a letterpress project created for the Canadian Letterpress Alliance, I step back in time to print postcards on a 170-year-old press at Mackenzie House Toronto, using historic wood type found in a cabinet of typographic curiosities. We explore its origins as a reader's mark, its many aliases, its evolution through print and persuasion, and its quiet persistence today, right down to the moment I realized that my cursor is a modern-day manicule.

Is the "Thumbs Up" Emoji passive aggressive?
When Grayson noticed his wife acting differently—late-night phone use, secretive laptop sessions, and a mysterious contact labeled with just one letter and a heart—his gut told him something wasn’t right. Married for five years, he never expected to find himself questioning the person he trusted most. On this intense episode of Catch a Cheater on The Jubal Show, one phone call sets off a chain reaction that no one is fully prepared for.

The Jubal Show has you covered. In this explosive segment, The Jubal Show helps suspicious lovers uncover the truth by setting up the ultimate loyalty test. We call their significant other, posing as a grocery store’s floral department offering a free bouquet. You know.. a War of the Roses. The catch? Who they choose to send the flowers to—and what they write on the card—could reveal everything. Will it be a romantic gesture for their partner or a shocking betrayal?

Ever wonder why you keep getting stuck in the same soul-sucking relational merry-go-round and can't get off? Why you feel like you're starring in a never-ending soap opera you didn't audition for, but somehow you're the villain for wanting out?I sat down with Gwendoline, a longtime member of Flying Free and Flying Higher, to talk about her epic butterfly transformation. We're talking cycles of chaos, religious gaslighting, and the sneaky little acronym that kept her trapped in marital misery: FOG (fear, obligation, guilt).Key Takeaways:If it feels off, it probably is – Chaos, fights, and emotional whiplash aren't just "normal marriage stuff." They're red flags.Your body knows before your brain does – Tight hips, tension, and dread? Not random. That's trauma.Love isn't a magical fix-all – You can love someone and still need to leave them. Track the truth – Emoji mood calendars and journaling helped Gwendoline see the pattern she was gaslit into ignoring.You are the rescuer – No knight in shining armor is coming. Just you, your big-girl panties, and God on a divine co-rescue mission.Leaving is hard, but worth it – Healing takes time, but the moment you step out, your real life begins.Read the full show notes and/or ask Natalie a question hereGet a FREE chapter of Is It ME?
