Hey @rustybrick.com, do we have anything from Google saying this? Or is this assumed as links normally get their own updates? www.seroundtable.com/google-augus...

Rectangles are in

A question about <lastmod> in a sitemap index file. If a referenced URL is removed from a sitemap, should the <lastmod> of the sitemap in the index file be updated too? There isn't anything new for Google to see in that sitemap, so it feels a bit odd. One for @johnmu.com or @methode.bsky.social ?

Can I get some accessibility guidance? On a page that lists articles, such as the BBC News homepage (www.bbc.co.uk/news), should each image include alt text? Or is that actually bad? Do readers instead need/want the alt text to be blank so the screen reader can move on to just reading the headlines?

I've been thinking about the environmental cost of Google's AI Overview searches. I don't have any concrete data on this, yet, I have decided to write a short piece on the topic. I hope to find (steal?) such data (eg carbon emissions, water usage per query) matttutt.me/what-is-the-...

Japan Grand Prix 2025 Akira homage

Hey @johnmu.com, is live blogging invite only? We have all the correct LiveBlogPosting Schema on Eurogamer but don't have the LIVE pill

Who do I have to pay good money to to bring this aesthetic back

I have three seperate crawl files (multi GBs in size) in @screamingfrog.co.uk, all with the same settings. Is there a way to combine them all into one?

Apologies to the planet:

Google, do you need some SEO help?

How about an indie horror game where nothing is wrong or spooky but you have to pick up the phone and call someone

There's also some great tips that you and your org can implement to improve things; remember, small, incremental changes, alongside pressure on the big players can really make a big difference
