Google’s John Mueller confirmed that Google Search is engaged on a problem with some favicons not displaying up correctly in Google Search. The problem has been ongoing for weeks (round September 18th), nicely earlier than the brand new web site title and favicon launch was introduced, by the best way.
John known as this a “area of interest” concern, implying it’s not too widespread. However I’m not certain the definition of “area of interest” as a result of I have been listening to about this concern for weeks.
Stefan shared an instance of the Google Retailer having this concern, and sure, I can replicate it:
He added on Twitter “we have been having points with favicons not being displayed for months now and mockingly Google’s Retailer is in the identical boat. Have you ever seen any of this?” Sure, sure, I’ve.
There are additionally some examples on the Google Webmaster Assist Boards of this concern.
So I requested John Mueller who replied on Twitter “We have appeared into it, and the staff has been engaged on resolving this, however afaik it is extra of a distinct segment concern.”
We have appeared into it, and the staff has been engaged on resolving this, however afaik it is extra of a distinct segment concern. (Additionally, I would not assume that Google websites get search engine optimization proper robotically, we’re individuals too :-))
