    What's your take on Google's Search Algorithm right now?

    I was hit hard by the so called 'medic' update. 3 of my money sites went under. What I did to recover: - I did not pay attention to any of those morons saying it is EAT and GQRG related. (set the right mentality) - Fixed all my technical issues (a wrong canonical or 301 can tank your rankings)...

    Backlinks from older existing blog posts = good?

    Yep. One good example is the bot does not rank the first version of an article but the most authoritative version. E.g. if you publish a blog post and then a month later (after it is indexed) you decide to syndicate it to Inc, Google will rank that article on Inc and could even deindex your...

    Introductions Thread

    Hey guys, glad to be here and I decided to throw a quick intro. I've been in web design for 10 years. Had my own agency but I had 0 time.
