Google moved the "all" button when searching for stuff over and put the "AI Mode" button in its place and that feels insanely devious. Evil.

Google does NOT see an issue with indexing - @johnmu.com said - story updated at www.seroundtable.com/google-index...

Google said he sees no technical issues that would cause a drop in indexing and it is not related to a core update - story updated at www.seroundtable.com/google-index...

Unpopular opinion - Google's AI overviews aren't all that terrible. At least, not for local businesses.

To get mentioned here, focus on standard SEO processes to build experience, expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness (EEAT).

More Studies Show AI Overviews Hurt Google Click Through Rates In February, we covered how Google's AI Overviews really hurt the click-through rate of the search results and paid ads. Well, several more recent studies have come out that back up this data.

New studies show AI Overviews hurt the click-through rates on Google Search www.seroundtable.com/ai-overviews...

The net impact of AI Overviews on the open web is as positive as Trump's tariffs on the US economy. Spoiler: not very positive. 📉

Google just launched AI Mode, an AI Overview on steroids, in beta. The data shows a gaping trade deficit in traffic that AI Mode threatens to rip wide open.

Excellent research by Dan Popa & Advanced Web Ranking showing how the increase of Google AI Overviews in Desktop for Informational queries correlates with a drop in CTR for the top 4 pages in traditional organic search rankings. 🚨

Dear Google, these in-line links are a WAY BETTER and FAIRER implementation of links within AI Overviews.

More of these please.

Amazing stuff, I learn so much that I did not know about the world and the creatures in it from AI overviews.

How is this AI trash better than showing local results? How does it help the user actually understand who is the best and why? Why would ANYONE want to see this above local results? AI Overviews do not belong on "best" queries.

Google Will Test Ads In AI Mode No surprise here - Google will be testing and experimenting with ads in Google AI Mode. Google told Adweek that they will be "explore bringing ads into" Google AI Mode.

Google said they will learn from ads in AI overviews to inform ads in AI Mode. The problem is that there are no ads in AIOs really... We've been waiting for them to arrive, but they are MIA.

I've been using AI Mode heavily since last week and there are several ad opportunities in my opinion:

Expanding AI Overviews and introducing AI Mode AI Mode is a new generative AI experiment in Google Search.

AI Overviews are getting a Gemini 2.0 upgrade and expanding to more people. Plus, we’re introducing a new experimental AI Mode. Learn more here: blog.google/products/sea...

Google is adding more AI Overviews and a new ‘AI Mode’ to Search The AI-ification of Google continues

📝 Blog posts:
• ChatGPT = More narrative, engaging style
• DeepSeek = More structured, precise (but sometimes too literal)
• SEO? ChatGPT did better. DeepSeek skipped some optimizations.

If you need storytelling, ChatGPT wins. If you want straightforward structure, DeepSeek delivers.

NEW: AI Overviews introduces detailed comparison mode for product searches.

For example, if you search for "iPhone 15 vs iPhone 15 Pro," Google provides a side-by-side breakdown directly within the #AIOs, showcasing specifications for both products.

Cool to see how Healthline often earns featured snippets and AI Overviews with its "Bottom line" section, which summarizes the key takeaways from the article

Google provides data for URLs featured in AI Overviews, but it can be tricky to isolate. Using third-party tools alongside GSC can help. My latest article explains how to track visibility and performance effectively.

I can’t figure out the real reason for all the panic. What exactly is going to change for SEO after this update?

Sorry for tagging all of you, but your opinions really matter in situations like this when everyone seems to be losing it.

It was only a matter of time before something like this showed up in my feed. The community is going wild over this news.

This just in: pages hit by manual actions can still appear in AI Overviews, weeks/months after being demoted in organic search.

In fact, it's been ~2 months since sites were hit by Site Reputation Abuse manual actions, and affected articles can still appear in AI Overviews 😅

Google's @johnmu.com on losing lots of links fast; "SEOs often overestimate links" www.seroundtable.com/google-link-... via @mehdioudjida.bsky.social

I also wouldn't expect that to change anything visibly. Taking a step back, the URL alone brings minimal additional "signal" for search engines. The content + everything else bring a lot of strong signals. Even changing from ?id=12345 to /cheese wouldn't be a big/noticable thing on its own.
