Ask HN: Google Seems to Exclude IMDB?

9 points by TrackerFF 3y ago ↗ HN

In the recent days I've noticed that when googling movies, IMDb either does not show up at all, or the "Full Cast & Crew" page for the movies shows up way down the list.

From searching around, IMDb has not done any changes to their website.

Any current googlers with any insight on this, or what could have triggered this?

It seems fine to me, IMDB is on the first page of results for the few random movies I just looked up.

Late reply - but turns out the folks at IMDB actually had screwed up something in the config. Back to normal after the latest webcrawl from google.
