Personally, I’d rather click a link to MDN docs than most other sources, so if you had some way to expose pass-through attribution from devdocs, that’d be useful at least for me.
I wonder how many engineers think about search results link origin before clicking through.
- wolfgang42 4y agoAlthough I’m sourcing the crawl data from devdocs, the ingestion process uses the upstream URL, so the search results link to developer.mozilla.org with the appropriate favicon. I’ve heard enough complaints about W3Schools and other SEO-heavy but accuracy-light sources that I suspect a fair proportion of technically-minded users probably consider the domain before clicking on a result link.
- pcl 4y agoYeah w3schools is the very reason I avoid Google search for code questions.
