Ekees SEO commented on Google Search Ranking Volatility Heated On November 12th

Yes, more general. Now it is a lot of blog hopping.

No, definitely not, as you can see from the bottom Tweet. "The level of plagiarism this model has reached is now completely out of control. We are going to have to start proactively warning our followers and readers to not use these AI recipes if they find them. This is outrageous!!"

@rustybrick:disqus Maybe you could add a special page with a chat function where all visitors could add comments or discuss SEO topics? That would be useful...

I can't think of any reason to optimise for GEO when they send so little traffic out.

Daniel commented on Google Again Says Consistency Is The Biggest Technical SEO Factor

It’s worth noting that when Mueller says ‘consistency is the biggest technical SEO factor,’ he doesn’t mean it as a literal ranking signal. He’s pointing out that inconsistency is one of the biggest sources of crawling and indexing issues. It’s not a factor like speed or HTTPS, but the foundation that allows Google to correctly understand your site in the first place.

You guys have no idea how much time a lot of people spend doing fun stuff for Halloween. You need to get out and let some blood flow back into your buttcheeks.

The issue still persists. These clowns can't even tell the difference between real and fake reviews

snuffy commented on Google Bike Shop

This looks like a real bike shop. They have compressed air at all three work stations - coming in through the yellow coiled hoses. I see two wheel truing stands, two stations along the wall where bike frames can be clamped in any position, and a tire changing station. The bikes in the clamps have road saddles instead of the big tractor seats that you see on Google bikes being ridden on short trips across the campus. That makes me think they might fix and tune bikes that employees ride to work? Would be a good service to keep employees safe, happy and on-time. The service would give employees more time to devote to their work. In a sunny place like Mountain View there are probably lots of people biking in to work. I used to ride my bike to work at least 200 days per year (in a climate that got lots of rain and snow). It would be nice to drop off the bike so an expert wrench can take care of any issues.

If it weren't for Google ranking signal about location, I'm sure there wouldn't be such a need for CDNs

John A. User commented on Google Again Says Consistency Is The Biggest Technical SEO Factor

Google has screwed everyone over so no matter what you do, you'll won't see any improvement unless you get back links and even then it's not guaranteed. Google's aims are to push people to using adverts or to their property such as YouTube or a site they heavily invested in such as Reddit or Wikipedia. The only things I can suggest is make sure you have a viewport tag and it's mobile friendly. Make sure you have no orphan pages, those pages which are not linked from any other page. Have structured data i.e author and date information. Have a Twitter account and link from it occasionally. Don't be tempted to use AI slop.

Can someone please analyze my website EcoGen America for technical SEO and consistency? We just rewrote all of our content, improved URL hierarchy and cleaned up core web vitals with consistent structure in mind but we aren't seeing any results.

My team tried to raise alarm about this last week. Took only a few minutes to determine that Google scraped a hidden iframe embedded on the site. This article is greatly misleading and I expected better fact checking from this site.

CLOUDFLARE has been down recently, which affected most sites and apps like X and Riot Games. Sir @Barry SEROUNDTABLE was not able to dodge the bullet as well.

Judge Meathead could have did the right thing and declared Google an organized crime corporation, but one look at him and it was clear what version of law he would follow. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d4eb42e14dbca0d062d072e2bd889df59515053bd97b5e0cfc34a1e2460f91b9.jpg

Looks like Google is doing something again. You’d think they’d drop an update soon or something? Or are they gonna wait till Black Friday Lots of bots, lots of intl traffic, and low conversions.

Let us hope when the AI scam fizzles out so too will the attention turn on big techies for stealing our content and traffic so they may face justice for their economic crimes against humanity. <b> No firm is immune if AI bubble bursts, Google CEO tells BBC</b> - <a href="https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/climate-energy/no-firm-is-immune-if-ai-bubble-bursts-google-ceo-tells-bbc-2025-11-18/">https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/climate-energy/no-firm-is-immune-if-ai-bubble-bursts-google-ceo-tells-bbc-2025-11-18/</a> <blockquote>Chief Executive Sundar Pichai said no company would be unscathed if the artificial intelligence boom collapses, as soaring valuations and heavy investment in the sector fuel concerns of a bubble. Pichai said in an interview with the BBC published on Tuesday that the current wave of AI investment was an "extraordinary moment" but acknowledged "elements of irrationality" in the market, echoing warnings of "irrational exuberance" during the dotcom era.</blockquote>

It would be very useful to have a similar feature in Google Looker Studio.

It wasn't AI. Check the comments on Andrew's LinkedIn post. A guy named Johan v. Hülsen pointed out that this is from the comments on the article which are behind the paywall for users.
