Asking me to do SEO work for an ecommerce site that's got hundreds of products for less than $300/month is the same energy as this "Wicked 2" poster. You get essentially the same results for that budget.

Came across my first “tip” field on a SEO’s order form. Defaulted to 15% 🫤

Finally got the chance to try @whitespark.ca’s new local rankings grids tool and love it. So much better than other tools I’ve used. Highly recommend if you’re doing local SEO.

Watching yesterday’s @maddow.msnbc.com and now I gotta know what’s so great about Tulsa 🤔

Recently worked with a local real estate investor who wanted his phone to ring more. When we started working with Vlad, his website looked half-finished and he wasn't showing up at all in Google Maps.

Result? Within 2 months, he was in the top 3 on Google Maps for some high value keywords.

Saw this on CNBC. Wonder how much of that 11% was just niche site peeps spamming? 🤔

This is very surprising if it's true
Uh, what? Less than 1%? -> Google Search plays almost no role in YouTube's massive viewership, Google claims

"A Google lawyer says that less than 1% of views on YouTube come from Search links."

Been noticing this as well with my local SEO clients. The best part is that most local businesses are not only sleeping on links, but on SEO in general.

Just one month of Growth Cupid's HARO-style links service got #1 rankings for a local real estate investor. (growthcupid.com/services/dig...)

love this
it has recently come to light that if you include a curse word in your Google search, it restricts it from serving up an AI overview?

i have created a very important tool to help us all search Google without triggering AI overviews.

this tool will save you so many seconds:

N.J. just struck a blow against banning books
It's called the "Freedom to Read Act."

Today's the day. HARO is officially over.

Though it was never the same since the switch/rebrand to Connectively.

I've been building HARO links since 2016 but for a while now HARO alternatives have driven better results for Growth Cupid clients.

Need our help with these white hat links?
