👀 Google just announced the ultimate ccTLD to gTLD consolidation and they're going to redirect all their Google ccTLDs to google(.)com over the next months. They've clarified this won't affect how search works though! Announcement: https://t.co/4VYBpTByCE

Thank you to everyone who came to @brightonseo Skyline to watch me, Nick Samuel, and Serge Bezborodov and our talks!

I’m here at BrightonSEO the full day so if anyone wants to talk more about Momentum or Topical Authority broader just reach out.

[Nick Samuel @nm_samuel]

Haven't been on Twitter (X) in years and it is a complete graveyard now for #BrightonSEO. Completely understandable TBF; I just didn't realise how much I'd miss the general SEO "chat" here for conferences!

See you on the other app I suppose 🥸

[Nick Samuel @nm_samuel]

@pontusvippelius @brightonseo Nice one Pontus, pleasure to share the stage with you 😎

[Nick Samuel @nm_samuel]

@Linkbuildinghq @pontusvippelius Thanks for the shoutout 🙏

Google published a 69-page whitepaper on Prompt Engineering and its best practices, a must-read if you are using LLMs in production:
> zero-shot, one-shot, few-shot
> system prompting
> chain-of-thought (CoT)
> ReAct
> code prompting
> best practices

The rise of the AI crawler 🤖 and their JS Rendering Capabilities - An insightful analysis from @vercel and @MerjCom , showing:

* None of the major AI crawlers currently render JavaScript, including: OpenAI (OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, GPTBot), Anthropic (ClaudeBot), Meta (Meta-ExternalAgent), ByteDance (Bytespider), Perplexity (PerplexityBot).

* Google's Gemini leverages Googlebot's infrastructure, enabling full JavaScript rendering.

* AppleBot renders JavaScript through a browser-based crawler, similar to Googlebot. It processes JavaScript, CSS, Ajax requests, and other resources needed for full-page rendering.

* While ChatGPT and Claude crawlers do fetch JavaScript files (ChatGPT: 11.50%, Claude: 23.84% of requests), they don't execute them. They can't read client-side rendered content.

* Content included in the initial HTML response, like JSON data or delayed React Server Components, may still be indexed since AI models can interpret non-HTML content.

* AI crawlers show distinct preferences in the types of content they fetch on https://t.co/r1kIWenwEh: ChatGPT prioritizes HTML content (57.70% of fetches)

Claude focuses heavily on images (35.17% of total fetches)

* Much more! Read: https://t.co/qxIvQzzEDW

I get asked quite a lot abut getting started in Python, so I thought it might be useful to share how I work, the software I use, resources for learning and how to get started. 1/?
