targeting, but some fluctuations in
rankings are reported.

- Focus on content
- Get to know the quality rater guidelines & E-A-T

4. Embedded images are not links
John Mueller said on a chain of tweets that:
In the case where another website embeds your image, it will not be counted as
a backlink.
So there’s no need to disavow or do anything
about it.

5. Google shows translated knowledge panel on
SERP
Gianluca (@gfiorelli1) on twitter shared a screenshot of Google showing a knowledge
panel that’s translated into the target language with the source being a Wikipedia page
in English.

6. SERP snippet settings
Google announced a new set of meta tags and HTML attributes to let
webmasters have better control on how their website will be shown on the SERP.
“Nosnippet” - don’t allow textual snippet
“Max-snippet:[number]” - set the max text characters for your snippet
“Max-video-preview:[number]” - set the max length in seconds for video snippet
“Max-image-preview:[setting]” - set the max size of image “none”, “standard”, or
“large”
This feature will go live on mid-end of October.
