You're doing something wrong if you are at the merci of Google staying perfectly as it is right now. @Marneus74

Google is switching servers. There's nothing to do other than wait, just as @Florian67X said. Some people really need to chill.

Hell yeah it is bad for SEO. If you aren't aware of that you are either years behind of current SEO knowledge or you just started getting into SEO. You really need to read into that stuff.

Hi folks, i’m really curious about what kind of enhancements on a site (like changing keyword strategy or adding content etc) have brought you the biggest increase in traffic. I am running a website that is almost 2 years old now, and i have lot’s of very niche small keywords ranking number...

Hi my fellow growth hacking friends, so i got a mail from Ebay asking me about how i drive traffic to my website and ulitmately to ebay. I am sure they want to check if i play by the FTC rules. Since i mainly drive traffic through Instagram, but rarely asked the sellers for permission to use...

In my case it wasn't a real shadowban but a system error after Instagram made some changes. It took me 2 - 3 days to pick up my old engagement rate again and now everything is back to normal. I noticed though that the algorithm has changed concerning top posts.

Instagram has tweeted a statement about some technical issue affecting hashtags and location pages. I have just tested and everything is indeed back to normal. Here's the statement: https://twitter.com/instagram/status/934240040032534528

I thought maybe Instagram shadowbanned me again for the 301 redirect of the link in my bio. But even after i changed the...

I have extremely low impressions in comparison to my page views. How is that? Can anyone elaborate?

Alright. That is worth thinking about. My budget is pretty low still though. But might be worth taking the risk. Great advise man. Thank you. This won't work because the products are too special. But thanks anyway! No i'm in a different country and asking for sole distribution rights might...

Hey guys, i have no experience in such kind of things so please bear with me! So, my affiliate website is picking up traffic slowly and i am playing around with the idea to (besides my affiliate products) put some products up from people who make fan-art about my niche topic. There's one guy...

Hey, i've noticed that the top posts for some big hashtags are either completely gone or just 3 images instead of 9. Did anyone else make that observation too?? First i thought i was shadowbanned again, but that doesn't seem to be the case. What is going on there?
