Hello,
I am working through a course on setting up GA4. As part of the GDPR settings, one of the steps is to set up Google Signals (under Admin>Data Settings>Data
Hey Steve,
Have you seen Jay's training on GA4? He may have discussed this but I do not remember. Just know that following his tips made it easier for me to get my GA4 setup for my websites.
See screen print below...
Hope you find this helpful.
I searched WA first and found all of Jay's webinars. I should have mentioned that in my message. I have not watched all of the videos. It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack to find this one piece of information. But that might be my answer. 2x, here we go!
LOL, I hear ya' Steve... I do... been there, done that... felt the same way... LOL!
That's were a transcript of the webinars would come in mighty handy!

Yep, I Googled it too, but I don't understand what it means 🙂, how it impacts the privacy policy, and whatever else needs to be compliant.

My traffic is down 80% from this past weekend. Just curious if anyone else is experiencing this. I searched Google to see if there was a significant Feb 2022 algorithm update,
I read something here, and am not sure who posted it, but excessive and irrelevant backlinks are now getting penalized by Google. Perhaps THAT might be the culprit, Steve.
Just a thought.

We have not seen and drop but actually increase.
If you follow the WA training and the suggestions regarding product reviews, you should not have problems.
Google Product review guidelines
1) Demonstrating expert knowledge of the products under review
2) Utilizing quantitative measurements to assess products
3) Creating content that deals with the pros and cons of a product
4) Pointing out key factors that would go into the decision to purchase a product
5) Multiple sellers of product where possible.
When you know you followed the guidelines. don't get too focused on the changes. They will occur. Someone can write a better and longer review than you demonstrating the guidelines better.
Make sure you include enough informational posts on your site. Jay recommends somewhere around 70%. Those types of posts bring more traffic to your site.
There wasn't any announced update that I am aware of, but traffic overall does seem to be down a bit in recent weeks. Did you lose rankings, and if so, how many positions did you lose.
Often times the worst thing you can do is panic and try to make all sorts of changes or stop writing content when updates like these happen.
If you have been creating high quality and comprehensive content, you will likely see your website seesaw back into the ranking mix and sometimes even above where you used to rank.
Thanks, Kyle. The funny thing is when I Google my top keywords in incognito, the articles are still ranking #1. My top 3-4 pages per Google Analytics are still in position 1.
Hi Steve
This probably isn't the cause ... however, Google has just started rolling out last year's Page Experience Update to desktops (previously rolled out for mobiles only). They say it'll be a slow release due for completion by end of March.

Mine is not 80% in drop but I definitely see some drop, especially on Feb 19. Something definitely happened in Google search but I also don't find any algo update...

I am not even sure what I am asking, but I have a question about the schema/FAQ functionality in AIO SEO.
I just watched a video from aioseo .com titled "Setting FAQ Pag
Hi
You may be wanting below resource

Jovo response makes great sense.
Thanks for responding. Unfortunately as a non-techy it's pretty much gibberish to me 🙂. I think I will not overthink and keep pumping out quality content.
That's very wise.

Hey Steve,
Here's Google's own guide on Featured Snippets: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/appearance/featured-snippets
Hope you find this helpful.
Going through your questions, my possible answers, take with a grain of salt:
No. A plugin does not dictate what Google will show in PPA.
No. You write for readers. But it cannot make harm if you add it there in the premium plugin boxes.
This is only on post by post base. I do not see any other way, every set of answers is related to certain post.
