What’s your pet peeve with international SEO? Let us know below!

[@yaalibizappln]

One common pet peeve with international SEO is dealing with the nuances and complexities of implementing hreflang tags correctly. It can be challenging to ensure the tags are set up accurately for different language and country variations, leading to potential hreflang errors and issues with organic search visibility in global markets.

When i translate my human created content to other languages it becomes AI in the eyes of google even thou you have the source material in english.

A soon to be launched website ( brand new domain). i have been working on the content and design. Ii have added noindex,nofollow and it’s equivalent robots.txt and meta tags and finally X-Robots-Tag as well. i Don't know why but i did verify my domain in search console+added Google Analytics 4 via Google Tag Manager. now my question is will November update or any google updates efect my website rankings in future when i Allow crawling/indexing?

[@ChristinaSoochan]

For sure automatic redirects by GEO IP, as well as by language of the device used.

Didn't talk about the November Core update?

[@JohnMueller]

I mention the core updates in most of the episodes, I thought I'd skip it this time for a change :). I imagine most people have already heard that it happened, if it's something they see for their site. Should we mention it? Let me know!

[@yaalibizappln]

@@JohnMueller While you may assume that many people have already heard about the updates, it's essential to remember that not all viewers or listeners may have the same level of awareness. Providing information on core updates can be beneficial for those who may have missed the news or are looking for further insights. It's a balance between serving the needs of your audience and keeping them informed, so feel free to include mention of core updates if you believe it adds value to your content and subscribers.

[@EllieK]

@@JohnMueller I agree with yallibizappin's second comment. If possible, it would be helpful if you were to mention core updates.

[@AbdulHadi-e6r]

I think the November update is fake. Google releases it to complete its number of updates in a year. What's your opinion?

[@MarketingMadheads]

Hi John, thank you for again a great video. The link for International SEO in the description is not working, maybe it is possible to update? Keep up the enthousiasm!

[@ElectronicsUSA]

What happened to your monthly English SEO Office Hours videos? They were excellent and very informative. Please bring it back.

[@JohnMueller]

Oh my, things have just been busy, I'll try to get the next ones lined up soon. Sorry! Any question that you submitted which I should dig out?

[@AmanBamba]

@@JohnMueller Its getting really hard to get the blogspot indexed. Please bring fetch as google back

[@JohnMueller]

@@AmanBamba that's unlikely, unfortunately there's so much low quality content out there.

[@AmanBamba]

@@JohnMueller Yes, i understand. I will create high value content and there by getting my blogspot indexedon google

[@AmanBamba]

@@JohnMueller Thanks for replying Can you name some blogspots as ideal blgospots that have been started recently and are indexed by google.

[@alimotamed8999]

Where can I find the community link to join?

[@JohnMueller]

I pick these up from things shared on social media & the various newsletters. It's hard to pick just a few.

[@webdev.vidyutpal]

Life is not well for SEOs 😅😂

[@officialytguruji]

great video and good update

[@DehradunWala]

very informative

[@vaishusekar5771]

Thank you for sharing

[@RaquelGonzalezEx]

Thank you for mentioning my article on international SEO!

[@JohnMueller]

Thank you for writing it & making it public!

[@CookieSEO]

I’m waiting waaaaaaiting for the recommendations to appear 😬

[@Alireza_Naji]

ask real people, not google

[@JohnMueller]

Pssst - An insider told me it's rolling out to more domains & with a few more kinds of recommendations soon. But also, they only show if there's something we can flag for you, and not all sites have things like that.

[@CookieSEO]

@ Sounds exciting 😬

[@rifatdavulcu]

Plase help me. My website traffic dropped after the August core update. I experienced a 90% drop. And my ranking dropped. Even though I fixed the instructions in the search console, my ranking is not going up....

[@piyushkalra4545]

This shouldnt have happened......make sure you aren't creating anything using AI. Maybe ping me your website so I can check it out :)

[@WilliamRockseo]

Fantastic information my friend. Always important and always relevant. Thank You, and your next adventure may be in Kansas:)

[@muhammadzakariyausman1478]

Any plan to host SEO event in middle east, maybe Dubai :) ?

[@JohnMueller]

I don't think we have one on the radar at the moment, sorry. I'll bring it up when we discuss future plans though!

[@rustybrick]

Go Crystal Carter!

[@متفائلا]

Useful information

[@derekboothseo]

How effective will the recommendations be? Are these just AI snippets which won't actually help that much or are they going to contain some real insights?

[@JohnMueller]

If you're an advanced SEO (and given you have "SEO" in your username, probably :-)), these will be more like reminders rather than secret tips. If you're not so advanced, I'm hoping they'll give you some things to try out or to look at. There's no magic trick that leads to #1 ranking, and even if there were, what use would it be to tell everyone about it? :-). What kind of things do you wish SC could have told you instead of you having to randomly notice?

[@hechmy]

I already miss the cache capability!

[@EllieK]

The cache capability was removed for many web pages gradually over the past six months. I agree with you: I miss it very much!

[@JohnMueller]

Helloooo 🎵🎶🎵 I was serious about wanting links to more SEO / online marketing musicians! Drop me some links! THANK YOU.

[@ehtarifa]

Geo Ip interesting !!!!

[@jc4evur661]

0:09 Life was treating me reasonably well till my site suffered thru multiple Google updates that made no sense.

[@ElectronicsUSA]

@JohnMueller Hi John! I submitted a question via the SEO Office Hours question page back in August or September. It was the one about changing a website site name. I followed Martin's instructions from his video back in April - no change. It's still oddly showing our simple URL name instead of our business name. Well, hope you can address this frustrating problem. Many thanks for your response! The Office Hours videos are appreciated, and VERY helpful.
