Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web.

Microsoft Bing will stop using the old BingBot user agent by the Fall of 2022. Google spoke about if you should avoid using 404 in the product or company name. Google said yea, if you swap out your home page content, your rankings may change. Google is testing lighter purple links in the search results. Google caches the Search Console inspection tool live test URL for 90 days. I also posted the weekly SEO video recap - to catch you all up on the past week's news. Have an excellent weekend all!
