I think you can usually tell when a company has bought reviews... After ten years + in this industry, one thing is clear: even when you do an excellent job for a client, most of them still won’t leave a review. And when they do, it’s typically short. So when you start seeing reviews that are...

First don't ask AI they will set unrealistic expectations and also mess up your initial brief to the agency, so the first part of any good agency will be to learn what you need and not what chat gpt says you need. In terms of how to find them, Google, look at reviews, look at the site tags...

To be honest we have done a few and after having done a few just rebuild the thing, its not like you need to redesign get a lightweight drag and drop builder clean blank theme and go to town. Visually Joomla designs are not complex by nature, they cant be, so its not something that should even...

Well here's the thing its still a algorithm its a algorithm that "interprets user experience" (According to Google) and that there... according to Google part means... “user experience” doesn’t mean what you or your users think it means. It means what serves Google’s business model first, then...

Brand Signals Matter More Than Ever - Google increasingly rewards real-world brand presence. Getting mentioned (without links) in press, forums, and social media appears to help both rankings and DA. <-- this part i think it super important right now with everything that's going on AI searches...

I wouldn't bother too much with it, the metric has a small correlation with ranking but it sort of a cause and effect relationship. The one we realised with DA it if you send a ton of traffic to your site, it goes up, obviously other things like backlinks, brand name mentions also count...

Its actual such a joke they "work" their backsides off blocking spam with HCU and all kinds of other rubbish but Exact Match domains are still is a easy way to somewhat game the system. If you go read up on SEO all the "gurus like moz, semrush, Neil patel say it doesn't matter that much anymore...

This is because of Branded searches its a big trust signal to Google, we've never tested it out very interesting that its that easy to manipulate. I think for something like this to work you need to continuously have branded searches and from new devices and IPs. Its almost like social media...

Off-page SEO has changed a lot in my opinion. It’s still about links and domains pointing to your domain, but the complexity of how those links are viewed is very different. For example, back in the day, you could get a link from a niche-relevant, high-authority website, and that would help. In...

When I get an AI chatbot the first thing I tell it is get me a human :). If it cant then I leave, because most people who implement ai chatbots train them to just refer you to articles. We were training one of our own content to provide answers based on what's on our website it does a decent...

Can I show you guys something Funny? Here is why you shouldn't use AI for content writing if you value your brand.

We use Cpanel mostly I cannot deny that it is one of the best along with WHCMS. In my 8 years of doing this people have always complained about their pricing, im not saying its justified and im not saying it fair. I don't know all the ins and outs of cPanels company. What I do see is more...

This here. Like Zero and rich results Google is trying to keep users on Google. On the one hand as traffic continues to decrease due to things like AI overviews and content creators aren't getting the rewards for their work they might stop producing work. This will be disastrous for AI as its...

As you can tell from the title I'm not for it. Since I work so much with AI in my job, I've noticed a few members here are definitely using AI to create and respond in threads.

I think you misunderstood me it was an example of wat would be good for me, but yes if you're in the UK or Aus. if the local market is your target then it may suit you better to get the local extension. Its all case dependant. I know some people that don't want the local extension because...
