Google Question Hub Beta to close down?
When you open Google Question Hub, you will find a message from Google at the top.
“As of January 5, 2023, the Question Hub beta will end. If you’d like to retain a copy of your data, you can do so via Google Takeout up until March 6, 2023. After that date, Question Hub user data will be deleted.”
Google Question Hub Beta might be replaced by Content Ideas in Google Search Console.
Google Search Console is testing a new feature called “Content Ideas,” which provides content creators, publishers, SEO professionals, and webmasters with suggestions for new topics to write about on their websites.
This feature is currently in the experimental phase and may not be available to all users. However, Nicolas Ockier has shared a screenshot of the feature on Mastodon, indicating that it is being tested by some users.
The Content Ideas feature is intended to help content creators identify gaps in their existing content and generate ideas for new, relevant topics to cover. It is accessed through the Google Search Console platform.
What is Google Question Hub?
Google Question Hub is a tool that allows content creators to gather ideas for new content based on user questions. It is aimed at helping content creators understand the needs and interests of their audience, and generate ideas for new content that addresses those needs and interests.
To use Google Question Hub, content creators can enter a specific topic or keyword and the platform will generate a list of related questions that users have asked. Content creators can then use these questions to identify gaps in their existing content and create new content to address those gaps.
Wrapping Up
Google Question Hub is available for free till 5th January 2023 and can be accessed at questionhub.withgoogle.com. It is intended for use by content creators, such as bloggers and website owners, who want to better understand the needs and interests of their audience and create more relevant and engaging content.
Let’s wait till the next update or an official announcement from Google about content ideas in Search Console.
