A Puerto Rican SEO networking event in NYC: full room, real food, and conversations beyond “what do you do?” Most people found us the same way—someone told them. Community brings community. 🇵🇷 Follow for the next one and tag who you’re bringing. #NYCNetworking #LatinoNetworking #SEONetworking

Throwback to the episode in which we sat down with @raymartinezseo.bsky.social (VP of SEO, Archer Education) to discuss GEO for higher-ed, how bots crawl, why unique content & links matter, and how to structure .edu websites. youtube.com/watch?v=8QZ4...

Being wrong or failing is an opportunity for growth, if you let it be one.

“Our traffic’s down… but nothing’s changed on our website.” That’s exactly the problem. The internet moves. Competitors launch. Markets shift. Culture tilts. Attention flows elsewhere. Standing still isn’t safe. It’s a countdown clock. www.jonoalderson.com/conjecture/s...

Standing still is falling behind

The internet isn’t a museum. It’s a coral reef - a living ecosystem in constant flux. You can sit perfectly still and still be swept miles off course.

Is OpenAI now crawling your LLMS.txt files? While @methode.bsky.social says Google won't be doing that. www.seroundtable.com/openai-crawl... via @raymartinezseo.bsky.social and @suzukik.bsky.social

Crawl frequency can change John, but right now, OpenAI is looking for freshness, and I can say that with certainty. Who knows if this will be a standard? I do not have a crystal ball. My team noticed crawls, which showed an uptick in OpenAI amongst other bots reminding the file.

Digital marketers don’t just analyze data—we tell stories with it. I wrote an article for the Wix SEO Learning Hub on how metrics alone won’t move stakeholders; the narrative makes them meaningful. Here’s the full article: www.wix.com/seo/learn/re...

What happens after we have demonized everyone who doesn’t look, move, or pray exactly like we do? What happens when fascism takes over? We are not doomed to repeat our history. We can learn from it, and we can reject hate and authoritarianism.

Yep, this is insane. I shared about this last week... 40+ citations in AIOs? Nobody is going through all of those and it overwhelms the user IMO. Also, they will all be #1 rankings in GSC (as long as the listings are scrolled into view). That's the way GSC position works (taking on the block pos).

Who Clicks On Google AI Overviews With Dozens Of Links/Citations?

A few weeks ago, I reported on how Google was testing showing deeper Google AI Overviews, maybe powered by Gemini 2.0, with over 60 links and citations in them. Well, over the past few weeks, more and...

This is a ridiculous claim by Google given the fact that most websites embed YouTube videos on their site. That right there has to drive a ton of referral traffic on its own

Racists spend so much time being racist. If they spent that time and energy focusing on improving themselves, the world would be a utopian place. But that would require sound logic and reasoning.

I love having that old SEO in my knowledge base. I know a lot of stuff. But I can always appreciate the older generation with deep knowledge of the growth of search engines and internet marketing. My boss at Archer built White Pages, and honestly, his tool kit is insane, haha.

My immediate thought was that Apple is hungry to grow its user base. It's probably losing money on Apple TV+ How do you attract more users? Free content.

I've struggled with mental health this year. I kept rationalizing it as burnout, but in reality, I was exhibiting the lasting impact of major traumas that I've endured and experienced. Slowly, the cracks began to show. I began using all my brain's capacity for my career.

Pretty great opportunity here to work with a great mind, y'all. Pro tip for clients: A good opportunity analysis is more than a pitch. It should be a conversation that addresses your core problem. Pro tip for SEOs: A good opportunity analysis highlights the value you can build as an SEO
