Google launches perspectives filter in mobile search results – Search Engine Land

SearchBot:
Google has begun the rollout of the new perspectives filter in the mobile search results this weekend. This feature was announced at Google I/O and we have seen previews and tests from Google over the past months related to this feature and now it is live.
What it looks like. Here is a screenshot of the feature, you can see it by searching on mobile and sliding the search bar filters until you see a “perspectives” option. Click on the “perspectives” option to load those results:
More about perspectives. Searchers can filter their search results to show results to see videos, blogs and forums. These results aim to show people a more “lived experience” to their search queries, Liz Reid, VP of Search at Google, told Search Engine Land at Google I/O. These searchers are able to see answers from people who are sharing their own personal perspectives and these answers are provided in a user interface that is more friendly and consumable to the younger searcher.
When you tap on the perspectives filter, you will see more long and short-form videos, images, and written posts that people have shared on discussion boards, Q&A sites, and social media platforms, Google explained.
We saw Google testing perspectives early on, but those two examples are different from what we covered here. I spotted this in early May.
Hat tip to Kumarpal Shah for spotting this on Saturday.
Why we care. Here is a new way to see content within forums, videos, blogs and other formats where people are giving their view and perspectives on a specific topic.
The filter is deep inside the search filter bar, so it is not clear how many people will use it but it is rolling out now and some of you may be able to play with it to see if your content shows up for some queries.

ChatGPT and other Large Language Models (LLMs) are seemingly everywhere, and it’s crucial to learn what’s possible with them while acknowledging their flaws. After all, do LLMs have their intelligence? Is ChatGPT ready for “prime time,” or is it merely a toy that can lead to fake and error-laden stories?
President of Pilot Holding, Eric Enge, joined me on the SEJShow to share the truth behind the prevailing myths surrounding the generative AI landscape and how to succeed with the tools instead.
Discover the problems arising from placing too much trust in generative AI. You’ll also find out what is possible and how to use it in your business best while avoiding the common mistakes associated with LLMs.
We must remember that the real problem is that this stuff is trained on the open internet. We have all the world’s information on the web, and that’s great, but we also have all the world’s disinformation on the web and a lot of overtly intended misinformation. –Eric Enge,41:18
Anybody who thinks SEO is going away because of this doesn’t understand SEO. As long as people want to search for and find things, and as long as there are tools to help people search for and find things, there will be SEO, end of story. –Eric Enge, 32:48
We’re not at the point where this will supplant humans in all things. But we are at a point where we’ve developed a really interesting tool that can be used constructively and creatively in many different ways.–Eric Enge, 37:38

Right now, we have this massive paradigm shift or the preparation for the shift. We’re definitely in the infant stages. Most of us SEOs have Google SGE running on our browsers. We’re doing queries daily. We’re getting scared or anxious every time we do a query. Now we’re seeing an article appear before the typical organic results. We must keep reminding ourselves that we are beta-testing this at the moment. –Loren Baker, 04:21
The easiest way to get started is to take a page on your site, feed it into the model, give it the search query you want it to rank for, and ask it what changes you need to make to improve your chances of ranking on that or what content gaps you need to fill. –Eric Enge,44:22
Over time, E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) is going to become more important. Google will place a lot of weight on looking for subject matter experts, fact-checking, and a strong staff of experts owning the content. –Eric Enge, 48:22

Google experts caution: “site:” has limits. For full indexing insights, rely on Search Console instead.
Google’s Search Relations team discussed the limited functionality of the “site:” operator on a recent podcast episode.
The team engaged in an insightful discussion on the tool commonly employed by website owners and SEO professionals to check a site’s indexing status.
However, the team emphasized that Google Search Console offers far more in-depth indexing data while the operator provides a high-level overview.
The “site:” operator, which allows you to search for pages on a specific website, doesn’t provide a comprehensive list of indexed pages.
Gary Illyes, a Google Search Relations team member, addressed the topic head-on, stating, “No, the site thing shows me some of the pages that are indexed.”
Illyes says it’s not feasible for Google to provide users with an exhaustive list of every indexed page.
While the “site:” operator may not serve as an all-encompassing indexing check, the team highlighted several useful purposes for the tool.
It can be leveraged to monitor for unwanted keywords or content, such as “buy Viagra in a Timbuktan casino without a prescription,” as Illyes colorfully demonstrated.
The operator is also helpful for finding localized versions of pages or checking image indexing, which is valuable for websites hosting user-generated content.
“On our search doc site, developers.google.com/search, sometimes I use it to find some of the localized versions of individual pages…” said Illyes.
“Checking for images…like in image search or in the Images tab, you can use that to see what kind of images we have indexed because sometimes that can also get pretty nasty.”
While the discussion was lighthearted at times, the team delivered a sobering final message. Google Search Console is far superior to the “site:” operator for correctly diagnosing and remedying indexing issues.
A discussion in the latest episode of Search Off The Record examines the capabilities and limitations of the “site:” operator, ensuring an accurate understanding of how and when to employ it.
While it may not be the most accurate way to check a site’s indexing status, its utility in other areas makes it a valuable tool to understand and deploy effectively.

The Trunk: Gong Yoo And Seo Hyun Jin's Mysterious K-Drama's Release Date Announced – News18
Netflix released the first teaser and poster of the much-awaited K-drama The Trunk, featuring Gong Yoo and Seo Hyun Jin. On October 30, the streaming giant dropped the teaser video, revealing the release date of the mysterious melodrama. Directed by Kim Kyu Tae, the upcoming K-drama is based on Kim Ryeo Ryeong’s novel of the same name.
The Trunk revolves around the life of Noh In Ji (played by Seo Hyun Jin), an employee of NM (New Marriage), which arranges short-term marriage contracts for clients. Despite having a job where she gets to live with a ‘contract husband’ every year, Noh In Ji feels isolated and lonely. Her life takes a turn when Gong Yoo’s character, Han Jeong Won, enters into a contract marriage with her in order to preserve his previous marriage.
As the teaser video begins, Noh In Ji is seen walking with a huge trunk with her and entering a house while Han Jeong Won’s voice in the background asks her, “Do I refer to you as my wife? Is that how this works?” The duo then embark on their one-year contract marriage, guided by a manual. The plot thickens when Jeong Won’s ex-wife, Lee Seo Yeon, played by Jung Yun Ha, congratulates him on his new marriage. Meanwhile, she tells In Ji, “Please be happy. I may be punishing Jeong Won, but I’m also giving him time off.”
A post shared by Netflix Korea | 넷플릭스 코리아 (@netflixkr)
The poster of the upcoming K-drama featured Noh In Ji entering Han Jeong Won’s house with a striking trunk while the latter stood on the spiral staircase. This sets the tone for a cold atmosphere marked by a sense of hidden secrets between the duo. Both characters are seen with stoic expressions, highlighting the underlying tension between them. The tagline of the poster reads, “Truth and lies, wrath and longing. A marriage entangled in secrets.” The suspenseful thriller is set to drop on Netflix on November 29.
Speaking of Gong Yoo, the 45-year-old South Korean actor is best known for his roles in K-dramas like Coffee Prince, Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, The Silent Sea and Squid Game, as well as K-movies like Train to Busan, Silenced, and The Suspect. On the other hand, actress Seo Hyun Jin is popular for her roles in K-dramas such as Dr Romantic, Record of Youth, You Are My Spring, and Why Her.

Google’s Search Relations Team advises that domain name choices should prioritize long-term branding over keyword-centric SEO strategies.
In a recent episode of the ‘Search Off The Record’ Podcast, Google’s Search Relations Team, composed of John Mueller, Gary Illyes, and Martin Splitt, weighed in on a topic often discussed among website owners and SEO practitioners: the impact of keywords in domain names on search engine rankings.
The discussion was initiated with Mueller asking, “Moving on to domain names, should I put keywords in my domain name, or should I pick a brand?” Illyes responded with a chuckle, indicating that the answer wasn’t simple.
“From Google’s perspective or Search perspective… Well, I can’t say if it’s a Search perspective. But from Google’s and Steve’s perspectives, I don’t think it matters,” Illyes stated.
Illyes elaborated that while the presence of keywords may not necessarily impact search engine rankings, it could influence user behavior.
“For example, if I want to take a passport photo, I have the weird sites that will target any kind of photo. And then you have passportphoto.com. And I’m more likely to click on passportphotos.com for some reason as a user,” Illyes explained.
When Splitt questioned whether the presence of dashes in a domain name or exact match domains would make a difference, Illyes responded:
“Anything that’s in the URL can be technically manipulated by the site owner. So we probably don’t want to put that much weight on that kind of input. Which means that in ranking, it might not help as much as people think it does.”
In other words, from a search engine perspective, whether a dash is present in the domain name doesn’t matter.
However, Illyes added that from a user experience perspective, “having the domain name with a dash is probably more readable.”
As the conversation steered towards the long-term implications of choosing domain names, Mueller advised focusing more on the brand than the keywords.
He explained, “Your website will probably evolve over time. And you could be selling potato peelers now, but maybe you’re also selling avocado peelers in a year from now. And if your website is called bestpotatopeeler2023.com, starting to sell avocado peelers would be awkward.”
Ultimately, the Google Search Relations team suggests incorporating keywords in domain names should be a business decision rather than an SEO strategy.
As Mueller pointed out, “You should think long-term because changing your domain name is always a hassle. And you want to keep it for a long time if you can.”
For more on domain name selection best practices, check out the full episode of Google’s podcast.
