Looking for link exchange

I searched this sub and couldn't find the answer I was looking for. I have both installed. Google Site Kit shows my site tanking (even though I am constantly tweaking and adding blog posts), whereas MonsterInsights only shows growth. For example, MI shows 68 new users (580% increase vs previous period) and Sit Kit shows 11 unique visitors - and only 1 click?? Can someone help me understand what I am looking at? submitted by /u/avocadomama [link] [comments]

I won't link to it as I think it's a violation. But I've been reading this subreddit regularly and see the growing concern about AI overview and AI"s impact in general on SEO. Having just read a Semrush review of a study posted yesterday on their blog, my top level takeaway is that the speed and processing capacity of the LLMs used in AI mean that it can take advantage of a wide range of content that might often be placed lower in Google SERP. Implied (by me) is that the various LLMs in use producing AI overviews and response within AI frameworks like ChatGPT, etc., use their own rule sets and algorithms independent of Google. They might especially have different evaluations for broad concepts like "authority" and "relevance" given what they are being asked to provide. When time allows - which is often - I tend to look at at least the top 3 references if provided by AI in the answer footnotes. Sometimes more. And without doing any research, my casual impression is that often the links provides - meaning the source material used for producing results - are not always from what I would think to be "high ranking" places in past Google experiences prior to this period. For example, WebMD doesn't show up on certain medical questions I have asked, but I suspect it would've been at least a first page SERP result, say, a year or two ago. What I think this means is there will be new rules to figure out perhaps as to way LLMs value things differently than Google has to date. But "good, relevant" content will have its place. And will still show up down page and on post-page1 in Google. If you're interested in reading the full analysis, you can find it on that blog. submitted by /u/Tech4EasyLife [link] [comments]

Hello, I'm looking at starting some affiliate promotions and would like to do it the best way without hurting my site. I've got a good user base but I've been losing rankings so time to dive into the SEO world. So in my mind I would give affiliates their own URL; domain.com/affiliate1 domain.com/affiliate2 Would it be best to redirect both of these to the main page domain.com(currently single page will move to multi soon)? From what I've read online as long as I tag the redirects with a no follow and use 301s then it shouldn't have any negative effect. Can anyone see a problem with this sort of approach? Do you know of a better one? Thank you for any help :). submitted by /u/RunTimeFire [link] [comments]

We noticed a sharp increase in blog impressions starting in February, but a significant drop in traffic and CTR. Rankings have improved, so competition or content quality doesn’t seem to be the issue. We suspect SERP cannibalization, which is possibly due to hundreds of tag pages (keywords are implemented as tags to blog posts, unique URLs were created for each keyword, and they became indexable, around the same time, 470 pages), but I want to make sure we’re not missing anything. What would you recommend checking to confirm whether the traffic drop is due to internal cannibalization, AI overviews, or something else? submitted by /u/coopersayshello [link] [comments]

Hey everyone! I’m still fairly new to SEO (about a year in), and I’m currently working on building backlinks for our hemp-focused site. We don’t have a budget for buying links, so I’m looking to connect with others in the industry for mutually beneficial link exchanges. If you manage a blog or site in the hemp, CBD, cannabis, or wellness space, I’d love to collaborate. I can share existing blog content or even write a new post tailored for your audience. Just shoot me a message if you’re open to swapping links or brainstorming ideas! Looking forward to connecting with some like-minded folks. Let’s help each other grow. submitted by /u/Jenni_Helps [link] [comments]

So a month back, I posted a question about how im new to seo and where to learn it. 50 days later, ive obtained theoretical knowledge about seo, like keyword research, on page optimization, etc. and also completed the Hubspot SEO certification. Now, I have knowledge about the concept of SEO, but im confused as to what to proceed next. These theoretical knowledge alone wont help me in cracking roles and since Im new to it, its even hard for me. Anyone that has experience/expertise in this matter, please help me out. I just wanna know what is the next best thing to do. Should I start with content writing with keyword research, or set up an individual website and try to rank them? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance :) submitted by /u/mohd-ansar [link] [comments]

I’ve already set up a 301 redirect from HTTP to HTTPS and specified the HTTPS version as the canonical URL. Despite this, Google continues to show the HTTP version in search results. Bing, surprisingly, shows the correct HTTPS version without issue. Is there anything else I can do to get Google to properly recognize and display the HTTPS version? submitted by /u/amza10 [link] [comments]

I have figured out how Google may be finding AI content for those Copying and pasting content into their site or using an API to generate content and post on your site. AI content is leaving markers enbeded in the HTML of the content if you use one of the above mentioned ways to produce content on your site. The search engines are looking for The following markers in the code. the numbers in the data start and end are random as far as I can tell. The are also looking for excessive em dashes or "—" a tell tell sign of AI Generated content. The good news is you can strip this out of the code and remove the em dashes. I can't garentee that this will help your situation because quality of content veries with the producer but this will remove markers and redflags. Also going forward if you are copy and pasting content from AI tools like ChatGPT past text only no formating or past it in a text editor first. Also when asking gemini what these snippets were it told me the following. I asked it "what is this? data-pm-slice="1 1 []"" Its responcse was: "The HTML attribute data-pm-slice="1 1 []" is likely related to ProseMirror, a toolkit for building rich text editors. Specifically, this attribute is added to HTML content that is copied from a ProseMirror editor to indicate that the content originated from that editor. ProseMirror uses this attribute to preserve whitespace when pasting content that includes it. In essence, data-pm-slice="1 1 []" acts as a marker to help ProseMirror handle pasted content correctly, particularly regarding whitespace." These are clearly markers for copied and pasted content. Below are a sample of some of the code snippets. the way you can search for these markers is to view source of your page and control or command + F on your keyboard depending if your on a Mac or Windows. I would love to hear your feedback and thoughts on this nothng negitive as reddit is notorious for. Pro tip when searching your content only search for example for "data-start or data-pm-slice" as the numbers that follow are random. data-pm-slice="1 1 []" data-start="5131" data-end="5166" data-start="3758" data-end="4051" data-start="4926" data-end="5106" data-start="4929" data-end="4962" data-start="5030" data-end="5051" data-pm-slice="1 1 []" submitted by /u/robohaver [link] [comments]

I am a newly recruited SEO specialist( no experience). The click of the website I am responsible for drops tremendously as the expression grows slowly. I started writing blogs for a month. When I planned my keyword, I encountered some problems. The search of long tailed keywords is little. The seed keywords have high search volume but when I searched the keywords on google, the first pages are stuffed with product pages instead of blogs. The second problem is that the high rank keywords of old blogs are losing. The previous seo specialist has already written new blogs with the same topics, but the new blogs doesn’t perform as well as the old ones. What should I do now? I am confused and lost. Help!🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 submitted by /u/Fou-d-Absinthe [link] [comments]

Most ecommerce brands are spending $10,000 or more each month on ads—just to rent visibility they could permanently own. While businesses continue to pour money into Google and Amazon PPC campaigns, competing for clicks that now cost anywhere from $0.66 to over $10 each, few are thinking strategically about how to reduce long-term acquisition costs. Exact Match Domains (EMDs) present an overlooked but highly effective way to build durable, compounding traffic outside of centralized marketplaces and ad platforms. When you own a keyword as a domain—such as distributebeauty.com or wholesalestock.com—you gain: Direct traffic capture from high-intent users Increased SEO authority and long-term ranking potential Full control over brand messaging, customer data, and pricing Reduced reliance on rising ad budgets and opaque algorithms Rather than fighting over rented ad space, EMDs allow you to own the demand itself—and redirect it to a storefront you fully control. In a market where cost-per-click is rising and platform dependency is growing, this kind of ownership represents brand sovereignty. https://luxurybrandsdirect.com/home-1/f/exact-match-domains-are-the-smartest-ad-spend-you%E2%80%99ll-ever-make submitted by /u/brbleavemessage [link] [comments]

Hi there, I’ve been in the SEO game for quiet some time and I really learned a lot through courses, books and other videos. However, at some point all these resources stopped teaching anything valuable. It was always the same thing. Write good content, interlink and get backlinks. I know the SEO game is changing with AI, it’s not dead just different I think. So, any recommendations for a good and modern SEO course for instance, that also teaches some AI/modern stuff? submitted by /u/Ok-Consideration2955 [link] [comments]

Hey guys, I’ve been in the SEO game for quiet a long time, always trying to learn from a variety of courses, books and videos. At some point, the advice was always the same. Create good content, interlink it and add some good backlinks. However, I feel like these days I’m not learning anything anymore. I know the SEO game is changing, but I doubt that it is dead. It will be different for sure. So, does anyone has a recommendation of a good learning resource, either a course or a book or anything, where I can learn something that is more modern than the usual approach? submitted by /u/Ok-Consideration2955 [link] [comments]
