Thank you for all the valuable info, as always. I have a question hope you can help me.
Is there a magic way to remove the competitor GMB knowledge panel on the normal search query (service + city).
The problem i am facing is that, the city is small and niche as well. that keyword search which is service+city pull only 1 GBP panel and not the map pack.
And that keyword + city is the only keyword that has traffic.
That's make it impossible for other business to show on map nor get clients.
Hi matt! I hope you'll reply me. I own a small affiliate blog and was doing much against the guidelines.
90% commercial and only 10% informational. (I have under 50 articles)
I believe that ny 70% traffic drop because of this ratio error.
I want to ask if i start uploading day Nd night and make it 60/40 ratio. How soon i expect to see good things? A week ? A few weeks? Months? A few months 6 months? Year 🙁 ?
As per your vidoes (thank you for all of them), I am researching my top ranking competitor's SERPs in order to write relevant content. Problem is that the top ranking SERPs are just as commercial as they are informational.
If I am trying to write strictly informational, competitive content; do I need to include the ENTIRE word count of their commercial and their informational or would you just recommend using the word count of ONLY the informational?
I dont want to write a 2,000 word article and overkill the 400 word count informational they had.
Matt, 1) do you have any intel on whether this applies to leads collected on the site itself. Do you reckon it's CTA's or rather being redirected to a 3rd party domain? 2) Loving the Affiliate Lab, need to dig back in. Would you be able to tell us when automatic topical mapping will be introduced? Cupid is great and also using a script by Lee Foot, but looking forward to it nonetheless.
When you say your site recovered do you mean the previous affected articles rankings went back up? Or the increase in traffic is just because of all the new info articles suddenly ranking and bringing in additional traffic?
Any insight on whether articles titled "Best XYZ" could be considered commercial by Google even if it was non-commerical in terms of having no affiliate links and not being part of a funnel? ie "Best actors of the 80s"…
Excellent findings. Thanks so much! Quick question. Is there any way to strategically convert the blog post with commercial content into informational content? For instance, if 'Best laptops for Librarian' is a commercial intent keyword, would changing the title and introduction (where the 'best' isn't used) might be able to make it seem more informational (for example, 'What laptops are suitable for a librarian and why?).
This is awesome – great video and data! I think yes, but are informational posts that include an affiliate link still considered informational content?

Hey quick question. I have a new review website and want to focus on supplement reviews.
I was thinking of adding a coupon section for visitors to browse.
Would this hurt overall SEO efforts? Should I have a separate website for coupons and discounts?

Happy easter!
Thanks for the research and great helping video.
I was really worried about the ratio.
You are really the math solver. 🙂

Any idea why a tech site would see a drop in Feb? Survived everything else and had a phenomenal January but around Feb 20th things started to tank.
