Anyone else noticing Claude Artifacts outranking blog posts on Google? (for micro-niches)

Hey, recently, I have observed that:

If you search on Google for some niche or narrow market keywords. Google will often show you Claude artifacts in the first page (and often first position).

For example, just a few minutes ago I searched for the keyword “offerlab review.”

for that google showed a few youtube videos first. but then in the second position results it was a Claude artifact.

You won’t believe…on the same first page, there are multiple claude artifact results, and even on the second page too.

I was shocked because there are some good blog posts written by people. but Google is not ranking them in the top positions.

Instead, it’s ranking Claude Artifacts. At first I thought it could be because of my search behaviour, Google is showing the results that are relevant to me.but then I tried incognito mode but still the same results.

Why is this happening? Is it because of Claude DA?Are claude artifacts highly optimized?Or Google treats them as UGC like Reddit or other forums?As far as I know, claude artifacts are crawlable. Google can crawl and index them. Even ChatGPT chats and Grok chats are also seen on Google search because it can crawl them.

But why is claude artifacts ranking directly in the top positions for niche keywords?

Is this some kind of new SEO hack? Could it be considered parasite SEO?

I’ve seen people write really good articles…yet claude artifacts still outrank them.

Just try the same search on Bing. Bing will rank those good blog posts instead of claude artifacts. It does not even show a single artifact.

Another keyword I tried searching “legacy builders program reviews.”

Again I saw artifacts ranking. But not at the first position but on the first page.

Actually these are very narrow, low volume and micro-niche keywords. That can be a possible reason.

My question is: Since Google crawls and indexes Claude artifacts, can we use it to get backlinks for our site. If not then we can atleast drive some traffic to our site.

P.S. Clade Artifacts are 100% AI-generated content. Google has said it favors low-effort, low-value content. Yet Google is ranking these artifacts. They are not high-value content.They're just easily accessible and usable.

So why is Google ranking them? I want to know your opinion.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

7 SEO Lessons I've Learned in 2025 (So Far) - From Building a Competitor Analysis Tool

Hey r/SEO , I've been spending a lot of time lately building a competitor keyword research tool (more on that below!), and it's really forced me to dig deep into how SEO works today . Here are some of the key lessons I've learned – hopefully, they're helpful to you too: Keyword Gaps Are Gold: It's not enough to just know what keywords your competitors rank for. You need to know what they rank for that you don't . This is where the real opportunities lie. Focusing on these "gap" keywords has been a game-changer for my own site. (This is actually why I built the tool – to make finding these gaps easier). Relevance > Volume (Sometimes): High search volume is great, but relevance is even more important. A keyword with 100 searches per month that's perfectly aligned with your niche and audience is often more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 searches that's only tangentially related. I've seen much better results targeting tho...
