Google's Partnership With WordPress Aims To Jump-Start The Platform's Support
b'Today on Webcology Google is sending out new Google Search Console notifications to some webmasters asking them to "provide a manifest and high resolution favicon for" their web sites. I guess Google wants higher resolution favicons to show up in the Chrome browser. Google announced they have a new AdWords policy around ticket resellers. Specifically they now "require all event ticket resellers to be certified and to radically increase their transparency." Also today they announced a new ranking algorithm designed for mobile search. The company is calling it the \\u201cSpeed Update,\\u201d and it will only impact a small percentage of queries, Google reiterated to us. Only pages that \\u201cdeliver the slowest experience to users\\u201d will be impacted by this update, the company says. Most recently, Google has partnered with open-source content management system (CMS) WordPress, arguably the largest, with market share nearing 59 percent and an estimated 1/3 of all web content published through the platform.\\xa0\\n\\nSupport this podcast at \\u2014 https://redcircle.com/webcology/donations\\n\\nAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands\\n\\nPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy'
