To those advocating for the use of semantic triples (subject-predicate-object) to write copy, have you ever tried reading that type of monotonous, robotic text?
It's exactly the kind of writing that will make people leave a page.

It's amusing to watch people spam everything they can so their brands are offered by LLMs for 1% of the overall traffic, only to be banned later when LLMs develop an anti-spam mechanism and send 10% of the overall traffic.

The best part about the last day before my vacation was that the site recovered from a significant drop in traffic.
My initial hypothesis was correct: the fix was the right thing to do.

To detect cloaking, rent a Google Cloud server and scan the site from it.
Some cloaking systems whitelist the entire range of Google IP addresses, which allows you to view the version of the site intended for Google bots.

Did your site's rank *increase* during a recent Google update?
It might not be the good news you think. 📈
If you went up, you were missing something, but the new algorithm is focused on other things.
But you still have that you were missing something.

Technically, to get the best possible results when targeting LLMs, you need to cloak and present different content to LLM user agents.
This means simple pages with no JavaScript or other features you usually include for pages visited by users and search engine bots.

The "Crawled current not indexed" status means Google thinks the pages don't provide enough value to be indexed.
"Crawled, but not indexed" is an authority issue caused by a lack of backlinks.

It's an evolution of GEO:
First, they posted about how ChatGPT provided them with Google search volumes for their keywords.
Then, they posted about how AI replaced their SEO strategies and tactics.
Now, they're proclaiming that SEO is dead while selling GEO courses generated by AI agents.

SEO tools use the headless Chrome browser to obtain SERPs, fetching depersonalized, location-targeted results. People use mobile browsers while logged in to Google, which uses the current context.
This explains why the SERPs reported by rank trackers & SEO tools differ so much from what people see.

Beginning with the March 2024 update, the technical methodology for this massive recrawl has shifted in a previously unseen way.
