Google Announces "Continuous Scrolling" on Mobile Search Results.

Hi Lunch Buddies!

I took a rare day off Friday and it was fantastic. I dropped the kids off at school, wrenched on the car a little bit, met my buddy Rob for sushi lunch, and got a few additional things around the house done that I’ve been putting off forever.

In addition to a personal day on Friday, we celebrated my son’s 10th birthday over the weekend. Below is a picture of a custom “10” donut my wife ordered. To say these were large is an understatement.

Let’s jump into this week’s issue… did I mention this is the 250th #SEOForLunch issue!? WOW. Thanks for all the support throughout the years!

Article:

Continuous scrolling comes to Search on mobile

What's Important:
Niru Anand, Product Manager, Search of Google published a new post explaining that Google’s search results (on mobile) no longer utilize pagination. As a user scrolls towards the bottom of the results, the next set of results (previously page 2) will automatically appear.

Nick's Take:
This seems like a no-brainer from a UX perspective. I suspect 95% of all searches still result in a click before the second set of the results display. However, it would be interesting as more data is collected if (previously) page 2 results generate any more clicks.


Article:

Podcast Google Knowledge Panels Go Live

What's Important:
Several individuals reported on Twitter new podcast knowledge panels that started displaying in Google’s search results. (images in the link above)

Nick's Take:
I’ve been digging into knowledge panels a bunch the past month or so. Seeing them expand into podcasts is an exciting update. If you’re leveraging schema markup and being consistent in your podcast naming/description across the web, it’s possible that you may have a new knowledge panel as well!
