The internet has fundamentally changed. This might be the understatement of the century. The time-tested, consistent techniques that allow outlets to reach readers are evaporating each day. In its place search giants are implementing AI search results, often skimming pieces like ours (and others) for information, and summarizing it at the top of the page — often incorrectly.
How to make sure SBNation.com appears in your Google search results
Google is now offering a solution for people who want to see more content from the sites they trust and rely on. These are your “Preferred Sources,” and it ensures that your search results inside Google better represent the sites you trust, and click on most often.
This is a way to help you get the information you want more easily, while also helping us. Frankly, the new model of internet search simply isn’t sustainable for a free and open internet. It’s not easy to use, it’s not quicker, the information is questionable, and reliable sources of news and commentary are being buried by AI-generated content and clickbait.
If you like the content we produce here at SBNation.com, consider adding us, and all your favorite team blogs to your preferred results. That way when news breaks you can get our opinion. When there’s an injury update on your favorite player you can get the information directly from the team site bloggers who have reliable sources and contacts to make sure the information is accurate.
We want you to be able to have the internet results you need and deserve, while hoping SB Nation.com can be one of your trusted sites.
