    Is SEO dead?

    Yes, SEO is omega dead. Anyone that has been doing it with some degree of honesty, regardless of the black-hat-ness of the techniques used, can say today with the same honesty, that SEO is dead Those who say the opposite in 2026 are plain charlatans, althouigh I have to say that SEO has always...

    How do I get out of software development?

    It genuinely doesn't matter what you build if you don't have the skill to market it, which is 10 times harder than actually buidling it. So I recommend to start sharpening that skill if you are planning any kind of jump like this Anyway, I don't really think that developers will be removed...

    Looking for an offshore CDN to replace Cloudflare 2026

    From my experience CDN rarely get into DMCA concerns, just make sure that the endpoint is DMCA ignored. Try out bunny CDN

    Claude Fable/Mythos Access Blocked for all Non-US users (including Anthropic employees) by the US government.

    I have an European paid account, so they probably have my account flagged as such regardless of RDP/VPN :(

    How many plugins are you running on your wordpress blog?

    I never run less than a hundred. It's important to be full packed in functionality, you never know when you are going to need it.

    Are OG (Open Graph) tags important for on-page optimization?

    Not important. Only useful if you want to share in many places that comply with it to have nice snippets

    Does a fitness blog still make sense nowadays?

    A blog basically is an AI feeder. Unless you are going to add massive value and many automations to the mix, nowadays a blog is the last thing I would start. In YouTube there is no fixed format. If you find a nice style you won't even need to talk to camera or you could talk with a voiceover if...

    When you're researching competitors, what do you pay attention to first?

    Depending on the niche, most of the times competitor research is less about "learning on what to do" and more on "shall i go into this or shall i look for an alternative". Basically a strenght measurement. If you are into a million dollar project you are not asking this, you technically already...

    I stopped saying AI in my pitch and replies doubled

    There was a time where AI hype was real and unique. Nowadays everyone seems to be using AI for pretty much everything. To some extent we are devolving. In some products AI starts to be a synonym of AI Slop. For example, I was looking for a Rclone GUI today, and I saw this guy promoting this GUI...

    How much Traffic i can get with a investment $100 a month ?

    Traffic is pointless. You could get hundred of visits or even thousands, if you happen to link to a viral post of your own overpromising whatever shit. I've seen CPC under 1 cent. With $100, this means 10K visits, all pointless. Some people cheat playing solitaire. The thing here is how many...

    Anyone else just... tired of all the "gurus"?

    This has been like this for ages. You must forcefully get tired of them at some point. I believe this is a turning point in your career. I think every single guy under the sun has been lured by them at some point, and fed of them time afterwards. The key is how much time has passed in between. I...

    Is White Hat SEO Better for Long Term Growth?

    I hope you don't hear the testimonies of all those white guys and gals that have been living the good life from Google for almost a decade and now they have been completely destroyed after the AI advent. There is no such thing as white hat and black hat nowadays, just best adaptation. And even...

    How important is traffic on linking domains vs just DA/DR?

    DA/DR means nothing. Authority has shifted a long way in the past few years. I'm in that point that I feel that its very complex to determine what authority actually means. Google calls it EEAT to make it hard to decypher. Direct organic visits could clearly mean that the algorithm already...

    Why doing MORE work is actually making you earn LESS

    Definitely I can agree with you that there are some clients that literally slow you down. Getting rid of them, is what actually impulses growth. On the other side, sometimes it feel so harsh to get new clients that it feels daunting, so I can understand both positions.

    Just venting here about making money. Frustrated after so many years of trying to make money.

    You got the answer there to your whole problem. Also now knowing that you are a programmer I'm suspicious that your commercial skills are low. It is likely that you have not done any cold calling, cold emailing or cold pretty much anyrthing on a big scale. You are not going succeed going where...
