    [Why Do I Do This To Myself?] 1,000,000 Words by January 1st, 2021

    Day 3 Update Today was the third day so far. I hit 10,000 again! Still working on Site 2. Got two big pieces done, 4300 and 3150 total, plus parts done of another couple of posts. I'm surprised that I don't feel more tired, to be honest. I had a very, very tiring Saturday with family, but I...

    [Why Do I Do This To Myself?] 1,000,000 Words by January 1st, 2021

    Thanks for the follow! I'll be honest, I don't edit when I write. That's partly because of laziness, but also the overall approach I'm taking. Here: This is my master record for Site 2, the one I'm working on at the moment. For each post, I mark what I have and haven't done. Ready to Write...

    [Why Do I Do This To Myself?] 1,000,000 Words by January 1st, 2021

    A bit of column A, a bit of column B. When I first start a niche site, I like to pick one that's REASONABLY close to something I've learned about or written before. It very much helps, especially when you need the motivation to keep going. So for example, my last site was on a topic I had NO...

    [Why Do I Do This To Myself?] 1,000,000 Words by January 1st, 2021

    Thanks for the responses! The approach I'm taking is sort-of the one you described. I plan on going back, re-reading and editing each post once I've written somewhere around 400,000. I find it's a good way to do things, since you learn a lot writing that much about a topic, and you can go back...

    Google releasing a large update today

    You're probably better off asking in a relevant thread, or making one of your own. This thread is about updates rather than running ad accounts.

    Heyo. Welcome to my journey thread! I'm going to try, and probably fail, to write a million words by the new year. Please, follow my thread, so that you can either crown me as the King of Words or mock my abject failure. I'll have fun either way. I'm writing this journey to keep myself on...

    "Google suffered a glitch that negatively impacted search quality. This was not an update. It was a mistake of some kind." ...But enough about what happened in May!

    Google Update Today?

    Been a bit of a bump in turbulence the past six days. Mirrored on other sites in my niche. Couple of things I've noticed. One is that my bigger keywords haven't stopped dancing since the last update. Up two spots today, down three spots tomorrow, up, down, etc. More of that dancing is...

    Google releasing a large update today

    Good job I wasn't trying to prove anything then, eh? The burden of proof is on the person making the claim, i.e. you. The fact that these global updates reach places where people have no stake or interest in Donald Trump is a basic flaw in your logic, not something in support of a claim I'm...

    Google releasing a large update today

    Nope, and I'll tell you why. The world is bigger than just the U.S. This update is a global update. Look beyond your horizons. On a personal level, myself and somebody I know with completely different opinions had the same experience with this update.

    UNUSUAL results on Google Search Console

    Hey all. Am finding something strange on GSC, which you can see in the picture below. The only difference between the two keywords pointed out by the arrows was that one was vs while one was... Well, it was that string of characters you can see above. The keyword is supposed to be Thing A vs...

    [Help] Identifying a competitor's tools with Yandex Metrica

    Hello all. I use Yandex Metrica. If you haven't heard of it, it's an analytics tool but with added session capture. Basically you can watch how users have interacted with your site: what page they were on, where they scrolled, what they clicked and copied. It's very useful. To the point of the...

    Google releasing a large update today

    That's about what I'm experiencing, yeah. But it's not much different to how it's always been for me. Posted after the update, pretty up and down, but seems to be settling. Normal dancing but seems to have mellowed out now. How things were before the update. So not much different...
