I totally forgot to blog about this, but last month I had the honor of being a guest on Search Off the Record, a new podcast that takes listeners behind the scenes of Google Search and its inner workings. It was great chatting with the three hosts from the Search Relations team — John, Martin, and Gary — after months of not seeing them in person.
I really enjoyed talking to them about web stories and in particular the Web Stories for WordPress project, and what this all means for webmasters. Oh, and we also talked about sheep! But to know what these two topics have in common you’ll have to tune in yourself
Web stories is a new content format on the open web with its own unique features. With stories being featured prominently on Google, this of course has huge potential for webmasters. It’s something I want to highlight more in the future, beyond this Search Off the Record episode.
In the meantime, don’t forget to subscribe to the podcast if you liked it:
Also, there is a transcription of the whole episode available as well.
