Interview is with Googles John Mueller and link to full interview below.

"I could imagine that our algorithms sometimes get confused is when they have a list of products on top and essentially a giant article on the bottom when our algorithms have to figure out the intent of this page. Is this something that is meant for commercial intent or is this an informational page? What is kind of the primary reason for this page to exist and I could imagine that our algorithms sometimes get confused by this big chunk of text where’d we say oh, this is an informational page about shoes but I can tell that users are trying to buy shoes so I wouldn’t send them to this informational page."

Thank you for sharing it, the problem with JM is that he says one thing and the top 10 SERP is showing another. Go and figure ... None the less there is some good info to play with and see how it works out.

Thanks for sharing! I am really looking for a site with content and an aged domain, but depending on the price, I may still be interested. What $ did you have in mind?
