Reviewers describe Google as the default tool for finding information and getting everyday work done, praising its speed, accurate results, and the way Search, Maps, Gmail, Drive, and Docs work smoothly across devices. Several say the ecosystem saves time and makes research, navigation, sharing, and collaboration easier. The main complaints are familiar: privacy, data collection, targeted ads, and weak direct support. A few also mention rough edges in specific products, like search ads, dated map data, and some Drive and Chrome Web Store usability limits.
Google just handed publishers and creators a dedicated space inside Search they actually own.
Search Profiles is a claimable page on Google Search where creators and publishers can set their identity, link their platforms, and let people follow them directly into Discover.
For years, your presence on Search was whatever Google inferred about you. No control, no input, no direct audience relationship. Search Profiles changes that: you claim it, you populate it, and every person who taps Follow is routed into your Discover feed on the Google app.
๐ Claim a profile with avatar, bio, website and platform links, so your audience always finds the real you on Search
๐ฐ Surface your latest articles, videos and social posts in one consolidated place, cutting through the noise of scattered results
๐ฅ Convert a search query into a following relationship, building recurring reach through Discover without relying on the algorithm alone
Built for digital publishers, independent journalists, and creators with an existing following on at least one major platform. US-only at launch.
If you create content and care about how you show up on Google, claim your profile now!
P.S. I hunt the latest and greatest launches in tech, SaaS and AI, follow to be notified โ @rohanrecommends
@rohanrecommendsย Love the idea and kinda surprised it took them this long. Too bad it's limited to just the US (and really 100k+ followers?!).
As someone who's been publishing across a few podcasts and blogs for years, "one place to highlight your work on Search" really lands, so much of what creators make just ends up scattered. Curious how it handles work that lives across different platforms (audio, writing, etc.) Does it pull everything into one profile automatically, or do you connect each source by hand?
@rohanrecommends Chaubey Manus + Shopify cโest combo dangereux ๐ฅ
Question bรชte : Le connector il gรจre bien les variants + stock en temps rรฉel ?
Je fais du SEO pour des boutiques Shopify et le sync stock cโest toujours le point qui casse.
Tโas testรฉ sur des shops avec +1000 SKU ?
Interesting , but google had something very similar right called People Card . Whats the diff ?
@deepan_alveย i was thinking the same....
Sad that it's US-only and 100k+ followers only (or more for some platforms) but this looks super neat. Hopefully they expand to other regions soon
@denitsapenchevavaltchanovaย 100k+ followers?! We'll that's disappointing

I understand that maybe this is a way for content creators to get more shine...but SHEESH regular people getting pushed down lower with this one.
