Google key moments is a feature where Google Search highlights the sections in a video through a chapter-like interface. Google added support SeekToAction markup for videos on your site, so that you can use the SeekToAction markup to communicate the key moments (timestamps) Google shows for videos in Google Search in 2021.

Now, Google has documented the 12 languages supported for SeekToAction structured data.

These 12 languages include:

  • English
  • Spanish
  • Portuguese
  • Italian
  • Chinese
  • French
  • Japanese
  • German
  • Turkish
  • Korean
  • Dutch
  • Russian

Google said it hopes to expand to more languages, Google wrote “We aim to extend this to more languages over time. Even in supported languagues, not all videos will have key moments identified, but we aim to improve this over time as well.”

This photo is from Instagram.

Microsoft Bing Webmaster Tools API Missing A Week Of Data

Published

on

Bing Api Data Flow Tube 640

The Bing Webmaster Tools API might have a week of data loss, a data gap, if you will. There was some sort of issue where the API was not returning data after March 3rd and then after Glenn Gabe reported it to Microsoft’s Fabrice Canel, Microsoft fixed the issue but there is two weeks or so of data loss between March 3rd and March 17th.

Glenn Gabe posted on Twitter about this issue, first on March 17th about the API no longer returning data after March 3rd and then again after Microsoft said it was resolved, showing that yes, new data is coming in but that there is a data gap of two weeks with no data.

So as you can see, there is this two-week period where there is no data being reported by the API.

The Bing Webmaster Tools web interface seems to have the data, so technically, I guess you can export it and do some work to get it where you need it but you should be aware that the API may be missing this data.

Update: This was a week of data, not necessarily two weeks:

Also, there may be an issue with the IndexNow WordPress plugin, but I am not sure and I don’t have a way to test this one:

Non-Supported Rel Link Attributes Do Nothing With Google Search

Published

on

Google Robot By Door 640

The other day, John Mueller of Google tweeted something true but sarcastic and it seems some took it the wrong way. He said In case you’re curious, the rel=dofollow works on links. The thing is, it could have been any rel attribute, such as rel=cheese and it would be treated the same as rel=dofollow, Google would ignore the attribute.

The only attributes Google would recognize and do anything with are the supported link attributes, such as rel=nofollow, rel=sponsored, and rel=ugc. But rel=dofollow means nothing to Google, Google will just crawl it like the rel link attribute is not even there. Occasionally I stick funny things in my link attributes just to see if anyone would pick up on it, no one does.

After John tweet this, he had to then come back and clarify, as to not set some SEOs off to add dofollow to their HTML links.

Here are those tweets:
