Podcasts about Google Search

Hey everybody, welcome back to the latest episode of the Niche Pursuits Podcast.  Like they do every week, Spencer and Jared cover the latest happenings in the Google, SEO, and content creation space so you can feel informed and make the best decisions for your business. The first news item they discuss is a tweet from Barry Schwartz noting that Danny Sullivan and John Mueller from Google had deleted some of their previous tweets about the Helpful Content Update. What does this mean?  The HCU is not being rolled back, but what would lead them to delete their previous tweets? Is there a glimmer of hope for the people affected by the update? Is the potential December update actually a “rollback?” Or are we all reading too much into this? Spencer and Jared have a few thoughts to share on the subject. The next topic is Google's new update, Gemini Pro, which is already rolled out into Google Bard. A ChatGPT competitor, this is an advanced multimodal AI model that will be part of the Google Search experience very soon.  Jared and Spencer talk about how Gemini and SGE are actually in conflict with what Google wants and show a few examples. What happens when Spencer pokes around to test Gemini out? What are the implications and how will this look going forward? Listen to hear what they think! The next news item is how there are continuous leaks of information and tidbits of Google's strategy that have been coming out as the company faces its major anti-trust lawsuit.  Most recently, an article was published that offers a ton of insight into how Google works behind the scenes. Spencer and Jared share a few of the highlights, like Google's many ranking signals, the use of keywords, how websites are rated and tested, and the Navboost system.  Listen to the tidbits that surprised them in the super-detailed article. Moving on to the side hustles, Spencer gives an update on the Amazon Influencer Program. He has 967 videos live and he shares a screenshot for over $3k in earnings for the last 30 days. He talks about the cost of outsourcing his videos, and he and Jared talk about whether they think earnings are up because of the holidays or if this upward trend will continue. In the ongoing competition between the hosts, Jared talks about reaching the 1000-video mark and his most recent earnings from the program, $4600. This is a great performance for a side hustle he started just a few months ago. He and Spencer talk about the enormous possibilities of this side hustle and share an inspiring story of a podcast listener who earned $11k in November from the program and started in July! The big picture message is that there are lots of side hustles out there that anyone can start and potentially earn life-changing money if they're willing to put in the work. Spencer then goes on to share his weird night site, which may very well be someone's side hustle: Flpbk.io.  This cool, little website lets you submit a 1-minute video and they will turn it into a flipbook and send it to you.  Although this website ranks for 0 keywords and only gets about 17k visitors per quarter, which is probably direct traffic and social. That being said, if the traffic is targeted, the website could be quite profitable. Jared shares his weird niche site next: Celebrity Cutouts, where you can buy masks, large heads, and life-size cut-outs of your favorite celebrities. This DR28 site is doing pretty well, ranking for 47k keywords and getting 17.5k a month in traffic. They discuss how it's most likely a print-on-demand business and encourage listeners to take advantage of the holiday sales to buy loved ones cutouts of their favorite celebrities. And that brings us to the end of another episode of the Niche Pursuits Podcast. Hopefully, this episode inspires you to start that side hustle and keeps you informed of the latest SEO news.

Damon Burton was the guest on this episode of Success Profiles Radio. Over a decade ago, he beat a billion-dollar entity in the search rankings. At that point, he knew he was on to something and build an international SEO marketing company that has worked with Fortune 500 companies and Shark Tank featured businesses alike. We talked about common misconceptions people have about SEO, the questions to ask SEO experts if you are thinking about hiring them, how to build a multi-million dollar company without ads, and the value of creating content that solves problems for people. In addition, we discussed how he beat a billion-dollar brand in Google search using their own brand, whether organic traffic converts better than paid traffic, and how long it takes for SEO campaigns to produce results. Finally, we discussed his experience in Russell Brunson's private mastermind group, event marketing, his free resource about SEO marketing, and much more.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Molly Davis, a seasoned therapist and the brilliant mind behind the Boundaries Bootcamp, where she takes us through her inspiring journey of self-discovery and business evolution.  Molly's approach to cultivating community in the online space is truly unique! From creating cartoons for “Boundary Bootcamps,” Molly saw rapid growth in her community (while never ‘showing her face on social media') and business as soon as she embraced her authentic self. She also shares the biggest takeaways from joining the Brand Mastery Mastermind, and the pivotal transformations she saw not only within her business, but also herself.  KEY POINTS: - Molly's journey from a therapist to the creator of Boundaried Bootcamp - How Molly uses cartoons instead of herself to show up for and cultivate her online community  - The power of authenticity and staying true to yourself in the online space  - How Molly's decision to trust her instincts led her to a transformative mastermind experience - Finding the right mastermind opportunity for you  - Molly's biggest takeaways from her mastermind experience  - What to expect from the next Boundaried Bootcamp  QUOTABLES: “The only thing standing in your way is you." - Molly Davis “There are people who hum to the same tune that you're strong to, and that when you do it your way, all the people who are like you are going to have a life changing experience.” - Molly Davis “You'll never get to the part where it's great and easy, and you know what you're doing, unless you take the step first.” - Molly Davis “I made a commitment to myself early on that I would be very authentic to myself, otherwise there was no point.” - Molly Davis “Everything is working out for you even when it's not working out for you. And there's really no failures. It's just I either grow and this is a great experience, or I learn something very, very valuable that I now can take with me that is then going to allow me to grow and be successful.” - Julie Solomon [APPLICATIONS OPEN]

Episode 187 contains the Digital Marketing News and Updates from the week of Nov 13-17, 2023.1. Danny Sullivan's Insights on Google's Ranking Misconceptions - In a recent presentation, Google's Danny Sullivan addressed a common misunderstanding in the SEO community regarding how search rankings work. He emphasized that the SEO industry might be misinterpreting Google's guidance and documentation. A key example Sullivan provided was the widespread adoption of author pages and bylines, based on the belief that Google's algorithm prioritizes these elements. However, Sullivan clarified that Google does not specifically look for author pages.The main point of Sullivan's presentation was the gap between Google's communication and the SEO community's interpretation. He acknowledged that Google needs to improve how it conveys its expectations for successful content. Sullivan urged SEO professionals to focus on creating 'people-first' content, emphasizing the importance of trustworthiness and reliability in content, rather than specific elements like author pages.Sullivan also highlighted the challenge in communicating what Google looks for in content. He explained that Google's guidance is often interpreted too literally, leading to misconceptions about the ranking algorithm. For instance, when Google advises assessing a webpage's trustworthiness, it does not mean the algorithm is specifically looking for features like author pages. Instead, it's about evaluating the content broadly for trust factors.The presentation led to a significant shift in how SEOs should approach Google's documentation. Sullivan presented examples of how certain parts of Google's advice are cherry-picked and misinterpreted as direct ranking factors. He encouraged more critical thinking and a closer examination of what is being advised, distinguishing between opinions and actual Google statements.Sullivan concluded by revealing that much of Google's recent update documentation is a reiteration of decades-old advice. The core message has always been about creating helpful, people-first content. The difference now lies in the advanced technology like AI and machine learning, making it plausible that these long-standing principles are integrated into Google's algorithm.P.s: For business owners, this insight from Danny Sullivan is crucial. It suggests a shift from focusing on specific SEO tactics to prioritizing the overall quality and trustworthiness of your content. Understanding that Google values 'people-first' content can guide you in developing a more effective and sustainable SEO strategy, ensuring your website not only ranks well but also genuinely serves your audience's needs.2. GoogleSafety - Google's New Crawler - Google has updated its official list of crawlers, adding details about a previously undocumented and somewhat mysterious crawler. This update is particularly relevant for website owners and digital marketers who need to understand how Google interacts with their sites.Understanding Crawlers: Crawlers, also known as bots or spiders, are tools used by search engines like Google to collect information from websites. This process is crucial for indexing and ranking websites in search results. There are different types of crawlers, each serving a specific purpose. Common Crawlers: These are primarily used for indexing various types of content. Some are also employed for search testing tools, internal Google product team use, and AI-related crawling. User-Triggered Fetchers: Triggered by user actions, these bots are used for tasks like fetching feeds or site verification. Special-Case Crawlers: These are used for unique purposes, such as mobile ads, webpage quality checks, or push notification messages via Google APIs. They do not follow the global user agent directives in robots.txt marked with an asterisk. The GoogleSafety Crawler: The newly documented crawler is known as the "GoogleSafety" user agent. It plays a critical role in Google's process of identifying malware and is unique among special-case crawlers. Unlike others, the GoogleSafety crawler completely ignores all robots.txt directives. Its primary function is to crawl for malware in publicly posted links on Google properties. The full agent string for this crawler is "GoogleSafety."3. Google's Hidden Gems Ranking System - Google has introduced the "Hidden Gems" ranking system, a significant update aimed at promoting authentic content buried within forums, social media, and blog posts. This update is distinct from the Helpful Content Update and has been part of Google's core updates for a few months. The Hidden Gems algorithm is designed to identify content that offers personal insights and experiences, which might have been challenging to find in search results previously.The Hidden Gems update is not a classification system but rather a method to highlight content perceived as especially helpful. This content often resides in unexpected places, such as comments in forum threads, posts on lesser-known blogs, or articles with unique expertise on a topic. Google's approach with this update is to make these valuable pieces of content more accessible to users.Initially, there was some confusion about whether this update was live and its relation to the Helpful Content Update. However, Brad Kellett, Senior Director on Google Search Product and Engineering, clarified that Hidden Gems is its own algorithm and ranking system, separate from the Helpful Content Update. This initiative is part of a series of ongoing updates, not just a single change.4. Google Search Console Introduces New Robots.txt Report - Google has announced a significant update to its Search Console with the introduction of a new robots.txt report. This new feature replaces the older robots.txt tester tool. The report is designed to provide webmasters with detailed insights into the robots.txt files found for the top 20 hosts on their site. It includes information about the last time these files were crawled by Google and highlights any warnings or errors encountered during the process.This update is particularly important for business owners and digital marketers who rely on Google Search Console to monitor and optimize their website's performance in search results. The robots.txt file plays a crucial role in controlling how search engines crawl and index a website's content. By providing a more comprehensive report, Google aims to make it easier for site owners to identify and fix issues that could affect their site's visibility and ranking in search results.However, the removal of the older robots.txt tester tool has been met with mixed reactions. While some users appreciate the new report's enhanced capabilities, others miss the simplicity and familiarity of the previous tool. It's worth noting that Bing still offers a robots.txt tester, which might be a useful alternative for those who prefer the older format.5. Google's $18 Billion Secret: Paying Apple for Safari Search Dominance -  In a surprising revelation during the federal antitrust trial, Google CEO Sundar Pichai confirmed that Google pays Apple a significant 36% of its Safari search revenue. This payment, amounting to a staggering $18 billion, is in exchange for Google maintaining its status as the default search engine on all Apple devices. This disclosure came to light when Google's final witness, Kevin Murphy, inadvertently mentioned the figure during the trial.This information is crucial for business owners to understand the competitive dynamics of the digital market. Google, often touted as the superior search engine, spends billions to secure its default position on Apple devices. This raises questions about Google's dominance in the search engine market and whether it's due to quality or strategic financial agreements.The implications of this revelation are significant. The Department of Justice (DOJ) argues that this agreement between Google and Apple demonstrates Google's efforts to unlawfully control search and advertising markets. If the DOJ's case succeeds, it could lead to a court order halting Google's practices, potentially even breaking up the company. This outcome could have a profound impact on the digital marketing landscape, affecting how businesses strategize their online presence and advertising.6. Google's Take on Topical Authority -  In the realm of SEO, the term "topical authority" has been a buzzword, often causing confusion among professionals and business owners alike. Google's John Mueller recently addressed this topic, providing clarity and a refreshing perspective.The concept of topical authority emerged from the SEO community's interpretation of Google's approach to authoritativeness. It suggests that by creating and interlinking content around a specific topic, a website can gain 'topical authority' in Google's eyes. Imagine a website dedicated to sustainable living. This site regularly publishes in-depth articles, blogs, guides, and videos on topics like eco-friendly home practices, sustainable products, renewable energy, and environmental conservation. Over time, the website becomes a go-to resource for information on sustainable living. However, Mueller's advice is straightforward: don't worry about it.The key takeaway from Mueller's response and the article is that while Google does look for signs of authoritativeness, there's no specific 'topical authority' metric or score. Good content naturally gains authority due to its quality and relevance to user queries. The idea of linking related articles for the sake of gaining topical authority is overthinking what is essentially a basic best practice in content organization and site architecture.In conclusion, the concept of topical authority, while rooted in valid SEO practices, is not a revolutionary tactic. It's a common-sense approach to creating and organizing quality content. As Mueller suggests, rather than getting caught up in buzzwords, focus on the fundamentals of good SEO practices.7. Google Introduces New Structured Data for Educational Videos - Google has introduced a new type of structured data markup specifically designed for educational videos. This markup, based on schema.org metadata, allows site owners to specify the educational level, concepts, and skills their videos cover. The primary goal of this update is to enhance Google Search's ability to understand and categorize educational video content more effectively, thereby providing users with more relevant search results.The new structured data for learning videos enables Google to display rich snippets in search results. These snippets can include information like the target education level and the type of video, such as an overview or a solution-focused piece. This feature is currently available in English on Google Search globally, both on desktop and mobile platforms. It appears for searches related to academic learning and educational content.For implementation, publishers with content management systems (CMS) can integrate structured data plugins to add this markup more easily. Those using JavaScript-based websites can generate the schema.org metadata through coding. Google emphasizes the importance of following best practices for implementation, such as adding the required schema.org properties based on the video format and using Google's structured data testing tool for validation.The technical requirements for this feature include a minimum video duration of 30 seconds, and the videos must be publicly accessible without any login or subscription barriers. The structured data must be present on the page where users can view the video directly.8. Google Search Console Adds Learning Video Rich Results Data -  Google has enhanced its Search Console by adding a new feature for learning video rich results. Learning videos are specifically designed for students and teachers, encompassing a range of educational levels and covering various concepts and skills. In June 2022, Google introduced new rich results for these learning videos, which include details like the educational level and the skills or concepts taught in the video.The latest update in Google Search Console allows users to track the performance of these learning videos as a search appearance in the performance reports. This means that content creators can now get detailed insights into how their educational videos are performing in Google searches. The inclusion of learning video rich results in performance reports is a step forward in understanding the impact and reach of educational content on the web.9. YouTube Mandates Tags for AI-Generated Videos - YouTube is introducing new tagging requirements for AI-generated content to enhance transparency and viewer awareness. Over the coming months, creators will be required to disclose when their content is synthetic, especially if it realistically depicts events or actions that didn't actually happen. This includes AI-generated videos that might show someone saying or doing something they never did. While AI-generated animations are acceptable, realistic depictions of people and events must be tagged. Non-compliance could lead to penalties like content removal, suspension from monetization, or even account suspension. YouTube will also automatically tag content created with its own AI tools. Additionally, the platform is adding new removal request processes for individuals and musicians whose likenesses are used in AI creations. This move aligns with YouTube's efforts in music discovery and generative AI music creation, working with record labels to set parameters for AI-generated music. Both Meta and TikTok have also implemented similar tags for AI-generated content, reflecting a growing trend in the industry for transparency in the use of generative AI tools.10. YouTube Easing the Copyright Claims Process for Creators - YouTube is enhancing its copyright claims process to better support content creators. This update aims to reduce the burden of multiple claims and provide more effective solutions for creators to manage their content in compliance with copyright laws.The key change involves the notification system for copyright claims. Instead of receiving separate emails for each claim, creators will now get a single notification encompassing all claims. This consolidated approach not only streamlines communication but also includes clear steps for resolving the issues. For instance, if a video violates copyright due to its soundtrack, creators can now easily access YouTube's copyright-free music library, Creator Music, to find a suitable replacement.This improvement is part of YouTube's ongoing efforts to refine its automated detection system, which has significantly reduced false claims. Additionally, YouTube has introduced an educational approach for repeat violators, offering guidance to prevent future violations. Creators can also utilize a pre-publish check to identify potential copyright issues before their content goes live.These enhancements reflect YouTube's commitment to creating a more creator-friendly environment. By simplifying the copyright claims process and providing accessible tools for compliance, YouTube is helping creators and brands navigate copyright regulations more effectively.11. Maximize Your TikTok Ad Impact: New Metrics Unveiled! - TikTok is enhancing its advertising analytics with a new measurement metric, the Engaged View-Through Attribution (EVTA). This metric aims to provide a deeper understanding of how TikTok ads influence user conversions. EVTA tracks conversions that occur after a user views an ad for at least six seconds, even if they don't click on it, and then makes a purchase within seven days. This approach acknowledges that the path from ad exposure to conversion isn't always direct.TikTok's introduction of EVTA is part of its broader effort to improve conversion tracking. The platform recognizes that traditional last-click attribution methods often undervalued TikTok's role in driving purchases. A recent report revealed that these methods underestimate TikTok conversions by 73%, missing 79% of purchases influenced by the platform. EVTA, combined with other recent ad measurement tools, offers a more comprehensive view of how TikTok ads lead to customer engagement and sales.12. Meta Partners with Amazon for Seamless Shopping on Facebook and Instagram - Meta has struck a significant deal with Amazon that will allow Facebook and Instagram users to purchase Amazon products directly within these apps. The integration is designed to facilitate one-click purchases by linking Instagram and Amazon accounts, offering a seamless shopping experience without leaving the social media app.The new feature will display real-time pricing, Prime eligibility, delivery estimates, and product details on select Amazon product ads within Facebook and Instagram. This development, while not entirely groundbreaking, as in-app purchases are already possible, marks a significant step in enhancing the convenience and efficiency of social media shopping.A crucial aspect of this partnership is the data integration between Meta and Amazon. The agreement involves sharing limited in-app activity data to show more relevant product ads based on user engagement. However, it's important to note that Amazon will not share specific shopping actions like purchases, product views, or searches with Meta. This means the data exchange is somewhat restricted, focusing mainly on improving ad targeting rather than creating a comprehensive data-sharing ecosystem.Despite the limited data flow, this collaboration could drive more engagement with Amazon ads on Facebook and Instagram. It also aligns with Meta's ongoing efforts to boost in-app shopping activities. While Meta has scaled back some of its e-commerce initiatives, like livestream shopping and dedicated shopping tabs, this partnership with Amazon, which boasts over 167 million Prime subscribers in the U.S., could open new avenues for in-app shopping.13. Microsoft Advertising's New Alert System for Policy Violations - Microsoft Advertising has enhanced its policy violation notification process, aiming to inform customers more promptly when their ads, keywords, or product offers are disapproved. This change involves sending more frequent email alerts, often within 24 hours of a violation. These emails, titled "Notice of Violation of Policy: Ad or Ad Component," detail the rejected content and provide insights into which accounts under a manager's customer account are affected.The emails link directly to the Microsoft Advertising campaign interface, allowing advertisers to view specifics on disapprovals. If advertisers choose not to modify the disallowed content, no action is needed. However, for those wishing to have their content reconsidered, edits must be made to comply with policy standards before requesting an appeal.Common violations highlighted by Microsoft include misleading product claims, inappropriate content, counterfeit goods, and gambling/alcohol promotions. The tighter policies aim to decrease such violations but may also restrict advertising potential in certain cases. This initiative is part of Microsoft's broader effort to increase transparency and safety across its products and services. The rise in email notifications suggests an increase in policy violations, indicating a more rigorous approval process to catch and address these issues.

Lawrence and Alainta have no specific topic; nonetheless great conversation and laughter. We also reflect on being searchable on Google and why you should do a better job branding yourself in the long run. The best thing you can do is harness the power of images. High-quality images can be a key to marketing success. They can help your brand stand out, attract the right audience, and convey professionalism and credibility. Images can also help you establish your core brand values. When used cleverly, images can help drive more visitors to your website, encourage social shares and brand interaction, and help you achieve your business goals. There are three types of marketing images: Representative images, Conceptual images, and Aspirational images.The latter is the most popular. The Importance of BrandingYour personal brand defines who you are and what you stand for and describes your skills and experiences. Personal branding is a way of showcasing your strengths and personality as well as telling your story. The five Ps are: Personal, Pointed, Purposeful, Prioritized, and then ultimately (broadly defined, if you wish it to be) Profitable. Wait what's a Financial Griot?The Financial Griot is a play on two words (Finance + Griot) that hold significance in closing the wealth gap while embracing our differences. We tell the stories that others don't. Stories about growth, opportunity, and embracing changes. Beyond that, we talk about Finances. Specifically, how to become Financially literate, incorporate actionable steps, and ultimately build generational wealth.Can you imagine being a Millionaire in 20 years or less? Yeah, it's possible. 80% of millionaires are the first generation. That means they didn't come from wealth. We teach you how.

In 2020 the Trump administration and eleven state attorney generals initiated an antitrust lawsuit against Google for its alleged anti-competitive behaviors in the search engine market. Last month, the lawsuit went to trial. In this episode we explain what a monopoly is, the government's antitrust allegations, and weigh-in on whether we agree that Google has abused its monopoly position. We also provide some critical background information necessary to better understand the lawsuit. It's worth nothing that Google is in the midst of several other antitrust lawsuits, including one recently initiated by the Biden administration related to the ads market. In this episode we exclusively concentrate on the search engine lawsuit.

Welcome back to another episode of the Niche Pursuits News Podcast, where Spencer and Jared cover all the latest relating to SEO, digital marketing, affiliate marketing, and website creation and break it down into bite-size pieces for listeners.  Spencer and Jared kick things off by talking about how the November Core Update was rolled out about a week ago. Spencer reveals how Niche Pursuits has fared thus far and Jared talks about how site owners he's in contact with have been affected by Google's latest update.  Did most websites see a recovery or more of a decline? What will happen as the update concludes?  They also announce that the Reviews Update has also been rolled out. Will site owners be able to determine which update affected them and how? How is this latest update different from the HCU? How is Google going to handle update announcements moving forward? And will there be another update before the end of the year? Tune in to hear what Spencer and Jared think.  Changing gears, Spencer shares an affiliate article in The Verge that is clearly written with AI with no human editing. Listeners of last week's episode will recall the discussion of a different article in The Verge complaining that the internet is overloaded with poor-quality SEO content. And here it is, spamming the web with SEO-optimized unedited AI content! Is their article ranking? And if it is, is it outranking truly helpful content written by humans who have actually tested the products? What do Spencer and Jared think about this case of parasite SEO? Listen to find out! Next up on the agenda is a very interesting tweet from Danny Sullivan from Google Search Liaison on how he brings people's feedback back to Google. Jared lauds this moment of transparency and Spencer wonders if this feedback could impact the way that Google Search works.  Another tweet that made it into this week's news is about the New York Times' 3Q revenue numbers. Glen Allsopp did an excellent write-up after analyzing The Wirecutter, the Times' affiliate website. How much does he estimate it's bringing in per month in affiliate commissions? It's clear that “the little guys” can't compete with The Wirecutter, but what are Jared and Spencer's takeaways from this situation? In the last news item of the episode, Spencer shares that Elon Musk and Twitter recently revealed their ChatCPT competitor, Grok. Premium Twitter subscribers can currently sign up to the waiting list to test it out. Where will this go? It remains to be seen, but as Spencer says, it's always interesting when someone with very deep pockets gets into the AI game. In the Shiny Object Shenanigans portion of the podcast, Spencer talks about the tool he created, Rank Logic, and its latest addition—a Google Analytics integration, which will be available for current users as early as next week. He talks about the different ways users will be able to analyze data and create custom reports, and how much easier it will be compared with using GA4. When it's Jared's turn, he talks about recording more videos for the Amazon Influencer Program, most of them seasonal. His goal is to hit 1000 videos by the end of the year. He also talks about celebrating the anniversary of the Photo Course on Weekend Growth and how his side hustles, and the opportunities that come with them, continue to grow and surprise him as well. Spencer shares his Weird Niche Site first: Miss Rachel Networth. He gives the backstory about Miss Rachel, a popular teacher on YouTube, and shares stats for the 3-month-old site, which has a DR of 63 and organic monthly traffic of around 30k. Is it a 301 from an older domain? What else does he discover when he digs deeper? What's his and Jared's theory behind the website? Jared's find this week is The Measure of Things, a very, very weird niche site that lets you enter a measurement and then compare that measurement to other “things.” For example, 829 square centimeters is about 1/15th as big as a bath towel. Isn't that great to know?  This DR52 site ranks for 17k keywords and has an organic search volume of 24k per month. What's super unique about this website? Hear Jared and Spencer break down the data they see in Ahrefs. And that brings us to the end of another great episode. We hope you're feeling informed and inspired, as always. See you next week!

Welcome to Tiny Bites from the Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Ewen Finser from Venture 4th Media about the recent Google algorithm updates. ----- Google has been… very busy in Q3 and Q4 of 2023. If the updates feel nonstop, it's because they have been: Core Update at the end of August/early September Helpful Content Update in September Spam Update in October Core Update in October Another Core Update in November Some of these updates may impact your site traffic positively, some may impact your site traffic negatively, and some may have no real impact. But every update tends to cause some unease for online creators. So what can you do about them? What exactly is the Google algorithm and why is it updated? The Google algorithm is essentially how Google indexes and categorizes all of the content that is published online. You can also think of it as Google's ever-changing thesis on what constitutes ‘good' or ‘valuable' content. Updates occur in response to new information Google has, tweaks to what they think is valuable, and/or how they measure or evaluate content. The algorithm is constantly changing and evolving. As Ewen mentions in the interview, Google released their most recent Helpful Content Update and used AI to determine if entire sites were helpful or not helpful (while previous updates tended to be on a post-by-post basis). If a certain percentage of your content is deemed unhelpful, your content will be deprioritized in the algorithm. This update did not include rewarding helpful sites, but rather penalizing unhelpful sites. How should you approach the Google algorithm updates? The #1 thing you can do to anticipate and respond to Google algorithm updates is to focus on creating high-quality, user-first content. There will be ebbs and flows with every Google update — know that if your traffic goes down with one update, it might go up with the next update. Because of this, it's important to avoid huge course corrections after updates. But what if your site was negatively impacted and you can't figure out why? Ewen has noticed a few takeaways from the recent Google algorithm updates that might explain why: Older sites tend to perform better. Market leaders tend to perform better. User experience with display ads may play a role. Topical relevance matters (i.e. does your content cover too broad of a subject matter? Do you have gaps in your content?) How should you respond to Google algorithm updates? The first thing to do after any update is to let the dust settle. It usually takes two weeks to roll out an update. Wait to change anything on your site so that you can determine that any traffic changes were, in fact, due to the update (and not just a natural ebb or flow). Ewen shared lots of great tips for reacting to Google updates and creating content that is more resilient when these algorithm updates do come. Here are a few of our favorites: Use data (like from Google Analytics) to inform decisions. Experiment and test hypotheses. Understand what your audience wants. Avoid chasing trends that are only working right now. Solve a problem for your audience. Follow SEO best-practices. If you're looking for more concrete suggestions for responding to an algorithm update traffic dip, consider: Turning down the ads on your site for a bit, or removing intrusive video ads for a time. See if that change has any effect on user experience and/or site traffic. Filter through your content and consider the posts that aren't getting any traffic at all. Update those posts if they are relevant to your overall content strategy and have the potential for traffic. Otherwise, delete/redirect. Look at your inventory to assess where you have big gaps in content. Consider diversifying your traffic sources (email, social, etc.). Last, but not least, check out this guide from Google with questions to ask yourself to help you uncover potential opportunities for improving your content. Thanks, again, to Ewen for joining us on the podcast. We hope this episode provided some additional context, guidance, and encouragement when it comes to Google algorithm updates.

Small businesses have a unique advantage there, because the larger brands just can't compete on Google Business profiles, so that's why we decided to focus in this area.” [Justin, 2:35]  “When you're going down other marketing channels like pay-per-click ads, you're spending per lead. Whereas, if you can just get your SEO down right, you'll get a natural flow of free customers coming in your door every day.” [Justin, 4:32]  “Just take the two hours that it takes to freshen up your website with the things that we mentioned and your Google Business profile.
