The Google landscape is changing – don't tell us you haven't noticed those AI Overviews that now appear all over the place. But there is a way to customise your Google results to get more of the content you want.
Once such way is to select your favourite publications and add them as a 'preferred source' so that they are more likely to appear in 'Top Stories' and 'News' as well as in the 'From your sources' section.
This feature was initially available in just the US and India but is now available worldwide.
So, how do you add Creative Bloq as a preferred Google source? There are three easy ways to do so. Option one of clicking this link is the easiest but the others are still very easy. More details below.
