Google: It's Not Terrible To Have Related Links Dynamically Change All The Time - Search Engine Roundtable

Last updated Wednesday, September 22, 2021 07:11 ET , Source: NewsService

You often see on product pages or even blog posts, a section for related products or related stories. What if those related links were so dynamic that every time the page load, it loaded a new set of links? Is that bad for Google and your SEO efforts?

John Mueller from Google said on Twitter it "wouldn't be terrible" if the links changed all the time. He said it isn't common to see sites set up like that, but if they do change all the time, that isn't going to be "terrible" from an SEO perspective. The links will still give Google context around that product or page.

John said "From an SEO point of view, these links give more context ("these pages are related / similar") and they make it easier to crawl the website. Usually they don't change all the time, but that wouldn't be terrible (just makes tracking/debugging harder)."

@JohnMu We link related recipes from within the page and thought having a dynamic related posts at the bottom is a bad idea as it may change every time. But looks like you seem to say otherwise that it is perfectly fine to have the dynamic related pages that may help Google 1/2
