A heartwarming moment between an Indian girl and a Russian visitor at the Ganga Aarti. Simple, sweet and full of warmth. Beautiful to see this bond at a time when India and Russia are in the spotlight. 🇮🇳🤝🇷🇺 #Russia #RussiaIndia

Hey @Google , been in digital space since 2003—never seen such poor, spam-filled search results. u r too focused on AI & ignoring your core product. Genuine users are getting misled, traffic’s shifting to social media. Why? PFA Screenshots #SearchSpam #GoogleSearch @rustybrick

@rustybrick The day is not far when Google will say, "I don't need independent websites."

Google says you don't need a blog for your startup in 2025 seroundtable.com/google-startup…

@JoyanneHawkins I don't understand why Google is doing this; it's digging its own grave. Why are they transferring Google users to Instagram?

My prediction for 2025 is that Google will start to push social media in the search results more for local businesses. I think these carousels are going to become more frequent and prominent.

@rustybrick Due to Google’s recent updates search results have become cluttered with irrelevant and low-quality products. It is damaging the trust of buyers and negatively impacting sellers who offer genuine high-quality items. Such results make it harder for users to find value for money

The Google December 2024 spam update has burned through Christmas - it is so heated, so volatile and causing so much heartache for many seroundtable.com/google-decembe…

The rollout is complete, but not sure the update achieved what Google set out to do... I'll share a few screenshots next of sites that surged with spam (and are even dangerous). And then some surging with AI content as well.

@brodieseo Check this example; it clearly shows that all the products in the shopping feed section belong to Meesho.

@jpr_akshay Have an example you can share?

The organic product carousel type for ‘In stores nearby’ has exploded recently - appearing very often for queries. But many relevant stores that sell products online with physical stores are ineligible to appear (due to gaps in Merchant Center and product feeds). I’m currently doing a deep-dive into free local listings as a topic more generally, with an ‘In stores nearby’ organic product carousel case study included. After working on this with a couple of large eCommerce stores, I can safely say that this is one of the most complicated eCommerce SEO topics to get your head around. Give this post a ‘like’ if you’re interested in reading more about this in my guide once it comes out (shouldn’t be far off now).

Google's major search algorithm updates this past year have left many smaller websites with no other choice than to lay off staff. The internet is worse for it. cnet.com/tech/services-…

@CNET Google is digging its own grave... Google is what it is today because of small publishers

@gaganghotra_ That's a fact after Google's updates. It's a pity for those sellers who are still selling link-building packages, and God bless those who are buying them. But what options do SEO professionals have left now? Any insights?

Link Building should just die in 2025! We don't need link builders We have housing shortage those folks should pivot to House Builders 🙂

@brodieseo I will share the screenshot whenever I find it again. I just tried, but I think Google is changing it

@rustybrick @brodieseo @gaganghotra_ It's India's leading Hindi news paper Daink Bhaskar after this ad i seen 2 more ads on front page

@jpr_akshay @brodieseo @gaganghotra_ which paper is this?

Back in 2003, when I first used Google, I never imagined that 21 years later, an ad would take the front page of a leading newspaper about G search. This is the result of G’s 18 month streak of pushing its dominance why promote the usual? @rustybrick @brodieseo @gaganghotra_

@sundarpichai You all together are finishing Google's legacy… this might be profitable for some time, but not in the long term.

@mountainweekly sites like news websites, Instagram, and YouTube. IG and YT are filled with spam techniques.

The last 12 month have brought up a ton of my insecurities, things I though were long healed. Trauma that apparently sticks. Remember to love yourself and the content you create! At the end of the day that's all that really matters,.. mike-hardaker.com/f/how-googles-…

@mountainweekly Mike, I checked your blog, and you write really well with deep knowledge. But I'm in the same boat as you—they’ve destroyed the entire ecosystem of the web. I always used to tell myself that Google listens to its webmasters, but this time I don’t understand why they’re favoring

@rustybrick Google Search rankings are like my weight during the holiday season—up one day, down the next, and I have no idea what I did to deserve either

Google Search ranking volatility spiking again seroundtable.com/google-search-…

@rustybrick News sites are flooding Google’s top search results with content on every topic, often backed by paid partnerships. This raises concerns about the quality and authenticity of information, as paid content overshadows genuine expertise.

Google hit Forbes Advisor with a manual action over the site reputation abuse policy, it appears... seroundtable.com/google-hit-for…
