Google prioritizes AMP content in organic mobile search. With AMP, Google now retrieves WTOP pages easily from its AMP Cache. WTOP content can appear in Google’s Top Stories carousel — even when only moments old. Silverback also ensured smooth ad load in the AMP experience, allowing WTOP to monetize visitors reading the latest local news.
