Summary of the week’s SEO news and content

  • This week’s Hamsterdam recap will be for non-SGE content only. Given how many tweets there were on the topic of generative AI this week, any Google Search Generative Experience-related tweets are included in a separate SGE-themed article.
  • But as always, there were still plenty of SEO announcements, including a ā€œthat’s not exactly newā€ announcement on Google’s topic authority system for news and Bing coming to ChatGPT, plus other good tips and some humor to boot.

But don’t just take my word for it! All of this info and more is contained below in the weekly recap.

Notes:

  • If the article times out on mobile, my apologies. Please try viewing on a desktop or WiFi.
  • I’ve cut back on the amount of info I include; if you’d like to see more, scrolling through my likes on X or following the people in this recap is probably the best place to start. šŸ˜‰
