One mistake I made was focusing too much on backlinks before making sure the content was actually useful and targeting the right keywords. It taught me that getting links alone won’t fix a page that doesn’t meet search intent.

Wouldn’t surprise me if more platforms start flagging them. A lot of AI-written reviews have that same generic feel, but I think it’s hard to tell for sure just by reading them.

Have you tried adding your website link to your Vimeo profile or video description?

I usually check the actual page, not just the site metrics. If an article has tons of outbound links, especially unrelated ones, that’s a red flag for me. I don’t think there’s a magic number, though. Relevance and how naturally your link fits matter more.

Don’t worry, it takes time for a new site to grow. My advice is make sure Google is indexing your pages, focus on useful content, and target some low-competition keywords. Try getting a few quality backlinks too.

Get some good content up first, then start building a few quality links naturally. No need to rush it or go crazy with link building right away.

I think they still have value, but the .edu extension alone doesn't make a backlink special. If the link is relevant and comes from a trustworthy page, great. I wouldn't go out of my way to get one just because it's from a university website.

unfortunately, it's no longer possible

I’d remove the pop-ups first and check Search Console to see whether it was a manual action or a ranking drop.

Since you already have 200 phones and 50 computers, I’d compare the cost of using your own setup with renting VPS in different countries. If you need actual mobile devices rather than just country-specific IPs, that’s a different thing.

it looks like a shared web hosting with a default set up page

I’d say LinkedIn for B2B, while TikTok/Instagram are still strong for reach and discovery. The bigger thing is choosing based on where your audience actually spends time rather than chasing the “best” platform. This report has some interesting 2026 data on platform performance too...

For me, it’s the obvious footprint stuff that stands out most. If a bunch of sites have the same patterns, linking behavior, content style, etc., it becomes pretty easy to connect them. I don’t think any single tactic is automatically “dead,” but the more predictable the setup is, the easier it...

I agree with this. From what I’ve seen, the basic SEO work still has to be there first. GEO and AEO can improve visibility, but they don’t seem to compensate for weak content, poor relevance, or a lack of authority.
