    Are Chrome user engagement signals used in Google's ranking systems? Cindy Krum & Marie Haynes
    2024/10/07
    Are Chrome engagement signals used in Google's ranking systems? I'd recommend watching Cindy's video from last week: https://youtu.be/txNT1S28U3M?si=uPi9nz61-1HfJefG Cindy theorized that Google collects all sorts of information from our visits using the Chrome browser. In our talk we discuss whether and how this information could be used in ranking algorithms. Reach Cindy: https://mobilemoxie.com/ https://x.com/Suzzicks Reach Marie: https://mariehaynes.com/contact/ https://community.mariehaynes.com/ - The Search Bar Links mentioned in this episode: The Pandu Nayak testimony: https://thecapitolforum.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/101823-USA-v-Google-PM.pdf Distributed Representation of Words and Phrases and their Compositionality - Jeff Dean, Ilya Sutskever et al. - Helps explain how vectors in a space are adjusted. Gemini gave me this paper when we were discussing RankBrain.

  • Understanding Gemini's Vector Space: How AI Learns (And can we influence it?)

    Understanding Gemini's Vector Space: How AI Learns (And can we influence it?)
    2024/09/18
    Here’s a conversation I had with Gemini about how its vector space works and how it adjusts as it learns. It may be possible for us to influence how Gemini represents our business by having more conversations about the things that are good about your business. Hope you find this interesting! (Also omg how many times did I say the word “interesting” in this episode? 😂 The end of this video includes a podcast made by NotebookLM AI podcasters talking about my conversation with Gemini. Here’s a great video I found that taught me a lot about vectors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvobVu1l7GI Here’s NotebookLM https://notebooklm.google.com/ See past podcast episodes https://community.mariehaynes.com/spaces/12946477/feed If you want to learn more about the AI systems used in Search here’s my book, SEO in the Gemini Era: The story of how AI changed Google search https://www.mariehaynes.com/gemini-era-seo/book/ And to go even deeper, here’s my course: https://www.mariehaynes.com/gemini-era-seo/course/ Want to join other people who are excited as me about AI?

  • Navboost - Understanding this system changes how we do SEO.

    Navboost - Understanding this system changes how we do SEO.
    2024/06/25
    Navboost is a system we learned about in the DOJ vs Google trial. Did you know that Google stores every query that you search, along with information on what you clicked on and engaged with? I share in this video how this system is described, and also how I believe Google's ability to predict what searchers are likely to find helpful is changing. Mentioned in this video: Blog post on Navboost by Marie: https://www.mariehaynes.com/navboost/ Marie's workbook: https://www.mariehaynes.com/gemini-era-seo/workbook/ Marie's book: https://www.mariehaynes.com/gemini-era-seo/book/ Pandu Nayak testimony: https://thecapitolforum.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/101823-USA-v-Google-PM.pdf Douglas Oard testimony: https://thecapitolforum.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/U.S.A.-et-al-v.-Google-LLC-Nov-15-2023-Bench-Trial-Day-41-Morn-Sess-Transcript.pdf Rand Fishkin's post on the API files: https://sparktoro.com/blog/an-anonymous-source-shared-thousands-of-leaked-google-search-api-documents-with-me-everyone-in-seo-should-see-them/ Cyrus Shepard's Moz article about Google patents involving clicks: https://moz.com/blog/click-based-seo-engagement-signals Google's announcement of the March core update: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2024/03/core-update-spam-policies Google describing how the core update involved architecture changes and bringing in new signals: https://searchengineland.com/seo-takeaways-google-elizabeth-tucker-smx-advanced-443070

  • Leaked Google documents tell us about Attributes and their use in Rankings

    Leaked Google documents tell us about Attributes and their use in Rankings
    2024/05/28
    Documents describing Google's ranking systems in great detail have been leaked by someone who sent an email to Rand Fishkin. In this video, I share my thoughts on Rand's post and then at around 35 mins or so I play around with analyzing this document with Gemini 1.5 Pro in AI Studio. Hope you enjoy this type of video. I share a lot of my thoughts on how machine learning systems work to use all of the many attributes described in this documentation. This includes links, clicks, return to search results and much more. Take home point: Google uses MANY signals/attributes/features in their calculations that predict what is likely to be helpful to the searcher. Our goal should be to create content that people choose to engage with and ultimately find to be the satisfying answer to their query - or in other words, HELPFUL. This episode may be best seen as a video podast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVYUvh4Vt30 Links mentioned Marie’s newsletter: mariehaynes.com/newsletter Marie’s notes (paid newsletter - follow along as I take notes on things like this each week.) https://community.mariehaynes.com/spaces/12261861/feed Marie’s Course and book: SEO in the Gemini Era is out soon. The Docs referred to in this video: https://hexdocs.pm/google_api_content_warehouse/0.4.0/api-reference.html Rand Fishkin’s post. He received an email with the contents of the leak. https://sparktoro.com/blog/an-anonymous-source-shared-thousands-of-leaked-google-search-api-documents-with-me-everyone-in-seo-should-see-them/ Mike King’s article on these documents: https://ipullrank.com/google-algo-leak

    Some quick thoughts on Google's AI overviews (formerly SGE). I don't think they're going away. I do believe they will get more accurate. We should be paying attention to which websites Google is showing in the link cards in these. More on changes to my newsletter: mariehaynes.com/newsletter

    Gemini 1.5 is like the brain. How a conversation with Jeff Dean changed my direction.
    2024/05/24
    Finally another podcast episode! I was babbling on to my husband about how similar Gemini 1.5's new architecture was to our brain structures and he said, "You need to do a podcast episode on this!" So, here it is. This is a rambly one. We'll talk about the machine learning models behind search and how Gemini 1.5's new MoE architecture works just like our brains do. Google + Harvard research on 3D modeling of the brain: https://blog.google/technology/research/google-ai-research-new-images-human-brain/ Gemini 1.5 info: https://blog.google/technology/ai/google-gemini-next-generation-model-february-2024/#gemini-15 Sign up to get Marie's Notes with live access to my weekly Google doc as I record the things I want to refer back to in regards to Search and AI: https://community.mariehaynes.com/spaces/12261861/feed Brainstorm with Marie: https://www.mariehaynes.com/work-with-marie/
