Google said they launch more changes to the Google search results towards the end of each quarter. Google said they fixed a bug which didn’t notify webmasters of manual action penalties. Google Search Console’s Search Analytics AMP filter only shows top stories. Google Search Console went down this week. Google said there is a big difference between image links and text links. Google’s top results are now 40% HTTPS says Moz. Google is testing icons near sitelinks. Google Maps updated their interface for search results. Google My Business now supports attributes management. Google Maps shows localized names. Google News has new schema to show fact checked articles. Google AdWords is moving managed level access to administrative level access soon.
