Here's what you can expect inside:
Real strategies, real data. Wins, losses, and the screenshots to back them up.
Fast answers. Stuck on a technical issue, a stubborn page, or a client crisis? Drop it here. Someone's almost always fought that battle before.

I do ecommerce SEO, mostly for Shopify and WooCommerce sites, heavy on technical fixes and structured data. Just finished recovering a site hit by the HCU in March, lost 45 percent of its traffic on product pages alone. Fixed thin category templates, bulked out PDP content, and pushed up crawl budget by blocking 2,000+ useless tag URLs in robots.txt. Ready to swap war stories or trade crawl dumps. Bring it.
Been in SEO since 2013, mostly agency side but now I run my own lead gen sites in US local niches, mostly legal and home services. Workflow's a mix of Screaming Frog, Sitebulb for audits, Surfer for on-page, and I'm heavy on Ahrefs for competitor gap analysis. Lately I'm testing how far I can push internal linking with Link Whisper and manual silos after the March 2024 core update shook things up, especially on thin content. Happy to dissect crawl issues or manual action recoveries if anyone's dealing with those right now.
Been in SEO since 2013, mostly in B2B SaaS and ecommerce, but still doing local stuff here and there. I live in Ahrefs and Screaming Frog, spend half my time digging through Search Console for drops or crawling weird edge cases. Just wrapped up two successful recoveries after the May 2024 core update, both came down to internal link cleanup and fixing crawl traps that exploded index bloat. Love running split tests with SearchPilot when the budget's there, but will hack together manual test groups if not. Always looking to swap SOPs or scripts, especially Python for bulk audits and reporting.
Been in SEO since 2012, mostly in B2B SaaS and local service sites. These days I'm obsessed with log file analysis and combing through Search Console query data for quick content wins. If you want to know how to spot crawl budget issues with Screaming Frog plus server logs, or dig out underperforming queries from GSC with Filters and regex, hit me up. Always testing internal link tweaks with Sitebulb crawl reports too. Happy to share the data or failures.
