Google On Why Helpful Content Update Appears Quiet; Google's Danny Sullivan with an update

A Continuing Effort...

The impact of Google’s helpful content update may appear minimal because the intent is to refine the signal over time.

Update isn’t done. It’s also part of a continuing effort, as we’ve explained. We’ll keep refining how it works. Directionally, the guidance we’ve given is what SEOs and creators should be considering.

Danny Sullivan of Google explains:

“Update isn’t done. It’s also part of a continuing effort, as we’ve explained. We’ll keep refining how it works. Directionally, the guidance we’ve given is what SEOs and creators should be considering.”

Reports that the update is quiet got the attention of Google’s Search Liaison, Danny Sullivan, who addresses the situation in a series of tweets.

Update isn’t done. It’s also part of a continuing effort, as we’ve explained. We’ll keep refining how it works. Directionally, the guidance we’ve given is what SEOs and creators should be considering.

I also get that when we announce an update, there are the memes and the gifs and the jokes and the OMG the sky is falling reactions that can even make me laugh. But updates don't necessarily mean a big giant shift. If you have good content, you're generally fine...

It wouldn’t remove content. It just might have dropped out of the index for a variety of unrelated reasons. You might inspect & request recrawl.

Media Man says: Just as Google recommended, have helpful content, and remain Google friendly. You and your readers are not going to notice the changes overnight. Keep producing quality and unique contact and follow the guidelines.

Media Man Streaming Blog: Why Netflix's New Ad Hires Are Another Blow To Snap (AdAge) LinkedIn News

Why Netflix's New Ad Hires Are Another Blow To Snap (AdAge) LinkedIn News

Jeremi Gorman and Peter Naylor were powerhouses for Snap's ads team, but are now batting for Netflix

Netflix gets Peter Naylor and Jeremi Gorman, and Snap gets ... players to be named later. Gorman and Naylor going to Netflix from Snap is a real-life example of how advertising interest is moving from mobile devices to connected TV. Snap was once the "must-try" new social media ad offering, with some of the most innovative formats—vertical video, AR. Now, Snap is trying to build a subscription business because ad markets are tight on mobile. Meanwhile, Netflix used to only be subscription-based, but now sees the potential for big TV money in ads.

I spoke with Matt Barash about why Naylor is the ad sales exec Netflix wants walking into holding companies and top brands, and why Gorman is coming off a good run at Snap. But the tide has shifted from the excitement of mobile and social media to connected TVs, as it once shifted from traditional TV to mobile and social.

Also, spoke with advertising leaders who said Snap is losing two top leaders at a crucial time. “It’s a brilliant move by Netflix, they are getting the best in commercial strategy and video advertising,” a senior agency executive tells Ad Age. “It’s a huge loss for Snap. Snap needs to urgently hire great people and focus or they risk becoming irrelevant.”

Great get by all accounts. There's what I call a friendly streaming war going on for end/consumer customers, and the same can be said for staff including executives and management at the streaming firms also. I'm happy Netflix customer also.. In Australia I worked for over 4 years for Optus Vision and the switched almost seamlessly to Telstra, Fox and then ID Media/Wavecam. Good people will always be sought after. The Google Chromecast that I purchased for $55AUD continues to work a charm with all the services in Australia. Watching this space with interest.
