Google Promote

New to me is Google Promote. I’ve just spotted it today while wasting my time checking where I score for certain terms. You can call me old fashion.

Either way, for this little gimmick to appear you’ll have to be logged in to your Google account. Once you’re logged in you’ll see 2 icons next to your search result. The first one being “Promote” and the second one being “Remove”. If you click promote you’ll see the search result moving to the top of your page. When clicking “Remove” the search result dissapears magically to the bottom of your page. Google has even included a “puffy cloud” that says “poof” when you click this icon!

As for now, i have not seen any change in my search results or comments from other users. Perhaps Google hasn’t released it everywhere yet?

    1. Yeah I spotted that as well. Would be good if everyone who downloaded ClanTiger had to click on that to get it working lol

    2. It’s not a good feature.
