TikTok's unredacted court docs just handed us the actual math. 260 videos hooks the average user and at 8-second clips, that's under 35 minutes. Social graph is dead. Welcome to the interest graph. #TikTok #DigitalMarketing #Algorithm

Heavy JavaScript doesn't just hide content from Google. It makes AI Agents abandon your site entirely. 🤖 If ChatGPT's web agent can't parse your HTML, it cites PubMed or a preprint server instead. Serve essential text in raw HTML. #LLMOptimization #AcademicPublishing

World Mental Health Day is Oct 10 💚 Self-doubt, anxiety at work, overwhelm, feeling your resilience run thin. Most of us carry at least one of these quietly. I pulled 4 podcast conversations, one for each. Which one's loudest for you right now? #WorldMentalHealthDay

A client once asked me where their XML sitemap "should" live. Turns out if your setup won't cooperate, you've got options: submit via Search Console (location doesn't matter to Google) or 301 redirect your robots.txt home. #SEO #TechnicalSEO

⚠️ Thin content is now an official Google spam signal. Journals are full of it: withdrawn abstracts, empty author profiles, bare TOC pages. They burn crawl budget and can stall new articles from indexing. Prune or enrich them. #TechSEO #academicpublishing

Your decades-old backfile archives might be disappearing from Google. 📉 Per Adam Gent's study at Indexing Insight, pages uncrawled for 130+ days have a 99% chance of being deindexed. Fight it with internal linking, press, and social shares. #IndexBloat #AcademicPublishing
