Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web.
Google is testing a "products gaining attention" carousel in search. Google Business Profiles lets you copy menus, sometimes. Google's John Mueller no longer recommends you set up verified profiles in Search Console for all domain variations. Google Ads extended its government documents policy to a later date. Microsoft Bing is testing an "official site" label on titles in search results. And I posted the weekly SEO video recap - a lot in this one.
