I don’t know who needs to hear this but stopping SEO after only 6 months, is the equivalent to being on a diet for 12 weeks and hoping to lose weight all year. SEO isn’t a fad. It’s not a bounce-back opportunity. It’s an INVESTMENT into your business.

Did the SEO community seriously not believe clicks influenced rankings before this? I’ve been using CTR manipulation for 5+ years and I’m one of the late adopters. 🙃

We all should be proud of our journey in business and in life. For the first time (during a global pandemic) I finally bet on myself. Here's a true reflection of building a business as a freelancer. The highs (and lows). 👇❤️

Me: building an affiliate site from scratch (I'm not a designer at all) Also me: manages to get banned from my own site due to too many failed log-in attempts It's going to be a looooooong road to £2k per month on this puppy 🤣🤣

People who believe Webflow is better than WordPress are the same people who like to put pineapple on their pizza. /change my mind.

This is what's wrong with the SEO community. SEO: 'look, I've done something new and made it work for me. Here's actual proof'. SEO community: 'no, sorry, you're wrong. My theory about this working is much stronger than your evidence.' 👉🗑️

It’s ironic that ghosting is probably the most alive it’s ever been in the freelance industry… People book calls, pick your brain, use up your time and then poof, disappear. I’m considering starting a list of people/companies who’ve done this. Call it ‘SEO Ghosthunters’.

I'm wildly excited to announce that I'm joining @riseatseven as their Search Strategy Director. Time to get shit done. Time to change what 'search' looks like. I couldn't be happier about joining the team. (Comfiest couch I've ever sat on, BTW). Let's go! 🔥

You know it's bad when SEO gets in the way of your passion. I desperately want to start a website/YouTube channel/podcast around mental health. But the immediate thing I think about is... 'this won't rank.' What is life? 🤣

Speaking out about your mental health gives someone else the strength to do the same. Let's destroy stigma together. #MentalHealthMatters

I know everyone hates AI applications for SEO. But it's so powerful. 🔥 I've just written a 2,500-word article on a complex women's health topic. It's personal. It's factually accurate. The header structure is natural. It took me 3 minutes. I only had to brief the tool.

Next time someone tells me to 'get over' my mental illness, I'll break their legs and then tell them to walk it off. #MentalHealthMatters

I manage 20+ sites with 90% of them being in YMYL niches. The update *only* seems to be hitting the sites where link building hasn’t been happening as much as others. Early days but I’ll be interested to see how this plays out.

I built myself up to $50k/m as a freelancer. It’s sexy. It’s fun. But… What you don’t see: → Isolation. → Huge sacrifices. → Loneliness and sadness. → The impact on personal life. If you think it’s easy, freelance your way to $50k/m. Then come talk to me. ✌️

Local SEO is such an EASY win for small businesses. I'm learning as I go. I'm by no means an expert. Here's everything that's worked for me: 1. Site structure. 2. On-page SEO. 3. Citations. 4. CTR. 5. Brand stacking. 6. PR 7. Map embeds. 8. Schema Site structure Don't

Asking for me. 👇 Has anyone ever hit that point in their lives where they feel... lost? Professionally more than anything. I second-guess everything. (I've written this post 4 times already). I'm stuck in a loop of comparisons and overthinking. It's stopping me from moving

Waited 7 days for some work to be completed by a pretty well-known SEO agency (I paid upfront). Jump on a call after a week. Turns out I could only have that work if I planned on continuing to use them. 🤡🤡🤡🤡
