Google Bars Future

Yesterday an SEO named Nilesh Dhobi submitted an XML sitemap through Google Search Console. It was on June 1, 2022 but Google showed the date submitted as June 2, 2022. I doubt this is a big deal but I found it funny.

Here is the screenshot he shared on Twitter (click to enlarge):

He said "just now, I have submitted sitemap.xml, and it shows me June 2, 2022." He added that he was "surprised" to see June 2nd. Yea, it is surprising but not shocking - we see these things all the time with Google Search Console - it is why we love the tool.

Forum discussion at Twitter.
