Hello! Anyone have recommendations for local SEO (consultants/agencies) and (on a separate note) freelance writers?

@yoast.com - with the yoast wordpress plugin, is there a way to create or upload a custom xml sitemap (example, a list of URLs that redirect that you want to track with GSC indexing reports)? Thx!

Possibly my favorite ChatGPT interaction yet

@lilyray.nyc - hello! I'm trying to get a good gauge of LLM reporting options & I'm having trouble understanding how prompts are being generated (to in turn use for tracking). Have you see anyone doing this well or in the process?

@johnmu.com - a throwback question about interstitials (specifically a 10% off newsletter signup type popup). developers.google.com/search/docs/.... Are popups on a delay/user interaction considered best practice? Or only small popups? Thank you!

"No affiliate stuff!" It's fortunate, ChatGPT, that your revenue model is not affiliate links since mostly they are broken anyway.

@johnmu.com - developers.google.com/search/blog/... says "In cases of multiple declarations of rel=canonical, Google will likely ignore all the rel=canonical". I have a page with 2 (I know!) and GSC live URL test shows user-declared canonical: None. Is that related? (I didn't initially think so.)

@taylorlorenz.bsky.social - have you been tracking the odd changes with TikTok's content moderation behavior? I dug in just a little in this post but I haven't seen anyone talking about it outside of TikTok. (Other than this sort of related article: www.newsweek.com/tiktok-block...

I dug a little bit into why TikTok is changing the search for "the smallest man who ever lived" to "the smallest woman". Maybe TikTok's downtime was to implement new code that's a little wonky: www.vanessafox.com/did-the-us-t...
