New submission from Nelson Elhage <nelhage@nelhage.com>: This request might be out-of-scope for this bugtracker, but I suspect that something is causing Google to actively downweight docs.python.org in its search results, and want to request someone investigate. I would expect, for instance, a search for [python set] to turn up https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#set _somewhere_ on the first page of results, but it does not. In fact, the only python.org result I see is for the long-deprecated Python 2 `sets` module -- https://docs.python.org/2/library/sets.html Similarly, [python shuffle list] does not turn up https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html -- or any other python.org site -- _anywhere_ in the first page of results. These results are egregious enough to make me suspect you're being actively downranked for some reason, which is hopefully identifiable and fixable by a site admin using Google's search tools at https://developers.google.com/search ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 381957 nosy: docs@python, nelhage priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Investigate docs.python.org egregious SEO performance on Google type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42486> _______________________________________
