Disgusting API behaviour. With full image credit automatically linked to the source.

This may not make sense to many, but with a little API tomfoolery I can generate 600 images across nearly 200 countries for a site I built in a few hours.

Everyone loves a useless metric. You can now see your ManFluRisk based on the wrather conditions in your location.

A tool I always wanted for comparing competitor features with a client's offerings, not just to see where the feature gaps were, but also to understand where the client could catch up or excel. So i've built it. gapnix.com

I've had thousands of conversations with Alan over the years, and if you knew him, he was steadfast in his beliefs of how search works. I was one of the lucky ones that had his ear, and vice versa, we'd spur each other on, always there for each other.

What reading material are you taking on your next jolly, 24 people minus 24 people asked. I'm kind of an all in, adapt and evolve SEO with sidenotes So it's this one

My daughter's side hustle she is looking to grow her biz, any shares of the domain would be greatly appreciated. Key metrics; - Budget: £4 - Projected build cost: £32k - Dad rates: Free. Give it a look, or if you're feeling unclicky, a share. 1 share = 1 SEO karma point. lettersinlinen.co.uk

I built a platform for a client a few months ago to handle their biz process (no site). They built a thing in WordPress as a 'coming soon'. Based on the build of the platform & the vibey coding thing i built for them, bolt.new built the potentential front end quicker than it takes you to read this.

Building another travel site, because as an SEO you would be nuts to get into the travel game this late in the age of the web.
SEOs are by nature rebellious

The site is full of easter eggs for SEO nerds and others just to amuse me
probably the most miserable site on the web after Stackoverflow

Off to a flyer. I already hate this thing, and it is making me feel worse, which is precisely the point.
I am going to get very ratty with this thing.

Inspired by @seocopy.bsky.social and her daily dose of wisdom sharing, I am building a small thing where we can all bask in reality instead of the fuzzy feel-good stuff everyone largely ignores.
Building a thing to help everyone feel sad, not just me.

Finally me and this LLM are getting along just fine.
LLMs are idiots, this may be the beginning of agentic and i have invoked the collapse of humanity

This can't be too far off. It likely is, but not by much. But if you compare this metric to production sites (not the naughty people). There is still a journey ahead. In my lifetime, I'll comfortably predict, Google will NOT be the source of Organic traffic. That's not a bold statement.
