Building media things and marketing stuff. Run ReddVisible.com (Reddit marketing), ScaleVisible.com (AEO), Venture4thMedia.com, other business knickknacks. Almost unemployable. Prior service. I like democracy, too. ForwardParty.com. Let’s be sensible.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

Wow. Trump has fired the federal Veterans Affairs staff running the Veterans Crisis Hotline. This will have a major impact here in North Carolina.

After many months of not appearing as a source in AI Overviews at all, Reddit is back being cited in AIO since the December core update.

I wonder what Google changed/improved here (assuming they did 😅).

Also seeing a ton of Quora cited in AIO.

Two big Reddit things to watch:
1. They debuted a Search product
2. They are developing monetization tools for the “user economy”

My thoughts on both: reddvisible.beehiiv.com/p/the-reddit...

“I think you’ll be surprised, even early in ‘25, the kind of newer things Search can do compared to where it is today.”

What, like finding the thing we are searching for?

Thinking about a post SRA SERP is interesting though: "best credit cards" just returns all the credit card providers saying "we're the best".

How is that better than a site that has at least gone to the effort of producing a table showing an interest rate comparison?
