Google Admits To Two Different Search Bugs
via @rustybrick
http://bit.ly/1IN8KwI
1. Google`s Structured Data Testing Tool is not working right with the typical open graph data.
Google`s @JohnMu responded with "This looks like a mix-up on our (Google`s) side -- I`ll pass it on to the team to check out. Thanks!"
2. Google`s fetch and render feature is not rendering the page right even when it is not blocked. Google is saying it is blocked but what is blocked should not impact what is being rendered.
Google`s @JohnMu said this is a bug with the tool and everything is actually fine. He said, "Looking into this issue here, this is something you don`t need to worry about -- the pages render fine even with this file blocked."
