I’m so sorry you got scammed, and I hope this doesn’t knock the fight out of you. You’ve already built something real, so don’t let it die just because someone else didn’t honor their deal. Grab a cheap host like HoboHost or Hostinger, pick up a $2 domain, and put it online under your name...

Competition and I can bet you anything that the majority of your competitors are NOT using fully ‘ethical’ SEO even if they pay lip service to it…. I’ve ranked on page one and even top 3 with great tech, strong content, and natural linking for low-competition long-tail keywords (one time, I...

I m following your journey and seriously : You are KILLING it!! :) Can't wait for more good news updates from you.

Username checks out plus on BHW, I wouldn't trust a seller without some gaudy cartoon characters and flashy fonts in their BST :D

Got inspired by some of our new members for that one but decided to drop it in the lounge rather than blatantly troll :D

Amitofo When doing black hat SEO, attachment is suffering. If your site burns, let it go. Do not cling to penalized domains. Rinse, repeat, reincarnate. Expireddomains.net is the Wheel of Samsara. :smirk:

I don’t know of any brokers that specifically sell penalized domains, but you could check out expireddomains.net , it has a lot of filters. Check the domains you find on archives.org and if it has a sketchy history with pharma/casino/cbd there is a good chance it got hit by Google. If you’re...

Home. It's might be my working class roots showing because I have a home office space but prefer working from my kitchen table. It just feels more comfortable :)

No. I am already older and a childless widow. I do have a will though; everything goes to my niece on the condition that she takes care of my cat. She’s a cat lover, so even if I was broke, I know she’d do it anyway >^..^< (and yes, he has health insurance ). I even prepaid my funeral, so my...

For me it was my late husband’s illness and also reaching retirement age. I worked for a nonprofit and I really loved my job, but it didn’t pay well, so I always hustled on the side (plus I love having money coming in :D) . My side income ended up paying way more than the job itself. If I hadn’t...

A lot of people mix up GEO with local SEO but they’re not the same thing. GEO means generative engine optimization, which is about getting cited by AI crawlers like GPT, Perplexity or Copilot, not about your Google Business listing which is Local SEO. Easy mistake, when we see Geo we usually...

Nay, that would be too much :eek: just the tittles and if the Yoast trick GPT described works ( I rely a lot on it for coding and SEO and it's generally quite good), it should make the process fairly quick and painless.

I’ve gotten sick and tired of Google pushing sanitized corporate BS on the top page and now with Gemini it’s basically unusable. That thing is always piping in a patronizing way and half the time it’s off topic, gaslighting, or just plain wrong. It feels shallow and sanitized. These days I use...

I also think you should rewrite them, it's a tech SEO nightmare. Disclaimer: I want to make it clear that this isn’t my original idea or experience; I’m NOT an expert and not a Stepford SEO :D. I just thought it was an interesting question, so I asked GPT-5 (which I use for coding/SEO help)...
