@Goog_Enough Just doing some basic Googling, and his LinkedIn looks like he worked at NerdWallet, and then his next job was at Three Ships. Am I missing something nefarious here?

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

@geeksforgeeks This looks from the outside like you received a manual action. Do you have any notice in your Search Console manual actions section?

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

@Goog_Enough I'm sure you and any reasonable SEO would agree that this UK phone shopping journey on a subdomain with almost no content was not created to rank on Google : )

You are right that it should be noindex though, and we'll make that update.

@gaganghotra_ @Goog_Enough I'm not sure why Robin was listed as a contributor on that snapshot, but as you surely saw on the Wayback Machine, Robin has been listed as staff going back 5 years.

@Goog_Enough In this case the article was rewritten by in-house staff starting from a blank page. Anyone who looks it up in https://t.co/tmODpB2SpV can see that it has not simply been paraphrased. Readers can find that article here: https://t.co/M8eF1I6o0p

@Goog_Enough Our data & methodology has always been done internally, and was updated as it often is during the year. The PoS space isn't known to be a dynamic one and it makes sense that the ranking didn't change much. Are you suggesting we should change the rankings just to look different?

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

@Goog_Enough @gaganghotra_ Not remotely, no.

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

@Goog_Enough @gaganghotra_ And to be clear the examples above are the edge cases and are not representative of a vast majority of content on Forbes Advisor.

What would your guidance be in the above scenarios?

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

@Goog_Enough @gaganghotra_ We did our level best to make fair judgement calls in every edge case, including noindexing thousands of pages from hundreds of freelance authors that was 100% policy compliant when it was written.

@NikolaRoza @Goog_Enough @glenngabe No, they are not. https://t.co/WfJy6NyyLu

@mattsinla @rustybrick Wayback Machine shows that redirect has been there for at least a year.

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

Hey @bing , I made you a commercial that will let you overtake Google. Seriously, you should try this.

[Frostheim @FrostheimWHU]

Here's a plan for how another search engine or AI could disrupt and replace Google @sengineland

Sunday Scaries is spine-tingling microfiction written by my friend Pat Harrigan. They are short enough that you have time to read one right now: https://t.co/PK36a099sE

@RobOusbey @randfish @Distilled I'm not sure the fact that you can go from knowing nothing about SEO to running the agency is a selling point for agencies, or SEO for that matter.

@DeliriumHunts @michelemorrow @huntingpartypod @TheBrewHall @MsMoLogan @synthparadox @BendakWoW @RogerbrownWoW Worth noting, no one has DMed me on this yet. Do we know who is organizing?
