@ericheiken I can’t keep up anymore. Just fingers crossed google addresses the parasite seo problem once and for all.

Ok fellow #seo people. Do you think parasite seo will be nerfed by google at any point?

All I see in the SERPs are sponsored posts on Newsdirect.com and similar sites that accept guest posts/news pr for a fee (500-5000 usd per post - I checked)

Seems to just get stronger with every update.

Thoughts? Ping @johnmu @rustybrick

@rustybrick @semrush this has been the most intense year in seo for me. High volatility has been the new normal.

@naught101 smart. The Boris Johnson example is pretty sick. They’ve probably had an seo consult to brainstorm with on how to mention buses in a non weird way.

@thelinuxEXP I don’t really get the change to X. Twitter has huge brand recognition. Just the expression “the president tweeted this” would now be.. the president posted on x? Not nearly as good for branding. I get the shift to X when they launch new features, payments, “reels”, food orders, taxi etc (everything app like WeChat) but so far there are no features like that.
