Here’s what you need to know for your work. Google Opens Search Console Social Reporting To Everyone Google made Search Console platform properties available to everyone worldwide, three weeks after […]
I promised this one at the end of the ChatGPT teardown. I’ve since had to go back to ChatGPT again in a follow-up because it moved under me while the post was still fresh. Perplexity was next, so here it is. The question hasn’t changed, only the logo. “How do I show up in Perplexity?” And […]
Views on long-form YouTube videos rose sharply over the past year while the ads running against them fell by half, according to a new report from social media tool Metricool. The report provides an overview of 799,718 videos from 71,177 accounts around the world, comparing data from February 2025 with February 2026. Most of the […]
Google shared some interesting information about the future of Search and AI in its most recent earnings call. While many are focusing on the first negative cash flow since its IPO 20 years ago, I think Google is well on track for massive improvements. Google’s revenue is up 24% year-over-year.

The company wrote that it was “saying goodbye to the Sora app,” according to the Associated Press, after months of pressure over deepfakes of Michael Jackson, Martin Luther […]
If you run ecommerce campaigns on target CPA or target ROAS and any of them sit at “Limited by budget,” Google’s August 17 bidding change is going to move your numbers, and we’re likely not talking about the direction you want. Starting August 17, campaigns that are limited by budget and use a target-based bid […]
A forum website published a post on Reddit expressing disbelief that Google issued a manual action for thin content, finding it hard to reconcile how Google could send so much traffic for nearly twenty years only to find fault with it now. Google is calling it a manual action for thin content, but SEOs believe […]
I uploaded my first YouTube video in August 2006. It was 42 seconds long, promoted an 11-part Christian Science Monitor series about a kidnapped journalist named Jill Carroll, and picked up a grand total of 1,908 views. My client at the time wasn’t impressed by that number, and honestly, neither was I. Then, the story […]
