How To Add Baseball America As A Preferred Source On Google Search

Whether through the addition of Search overviews or simply a rise in AI-generated content, you may be finding it more difficult to find the results you want from trusted sources. It has made Search more difficult for everyone–including publishers like us. But a new Google update is giving you back some control over your results on search, and will allow you to never miss an update from Baseball America.

Google’s new Preferred Sources tool allows users to select their preferred news sources in Search. By setting Baseball America as a preferred source, our stories will appear more often in your “Top Stories” and “From your sources” sections when you search for baseball-related topics.

Here’s how to do it.

First, you will need to log into a Google account. Then you can follow this link to manage your preferred sources at any time. Simply type in Baseball America, check the box and you’re all set.

You can also set your preferred sources while searching for different topics.

For example, if you search for Kevin McGonigle, Google will surface several recent stories in a carousel of news results at the top of the page.

See that icon next to the Top Stories module that looks like a starred folder? If you click on it, it will open up your preferred sources folder, where you can then search or toggle Baseball America.

After saving your selection and refreshing or reloading your results, Baseball America will be one of your preferred sources moving forward. Once that’s done, you’ll start seeing more Baseball America stories highlighted in your personalized Google results, helping you stay updated on every level of the game, from the majors to the minors to the next wave of prospects.
