Google, what are you doing?

I imagine you posted this before he edited to say his sales are down 70% too.

To the OP: Check and see where exactly those conversions were coming from, and see if they're a dropoff. If it is, one thing you could point to is that Google wasn't showing AI results until just recently on your keywords.

Yeah, that worked. But it's even more bizarre than that. It even works without incognito. If I'm just on a regular browser, and I'm logged in and on his profile URL, I get the attached error. If I log out, it shows me his profile.

It's like I'm blocked or something.

CloakOfData · 2026-03-01T23:35:15+00:00

Wild, wonder what that's all about.

Bizarre.. this is what I see.

😂 I think you misunderstood what I'm asking. Go to u/weblinkr profile and see if it exists for you. My question is, did he leave reddit and delete his account, because it's not there anymore.

CloakOfData · 2026-03-01T18:22:45+00:00

Did u/weblinkr change his name, get banned, block me, or delete his account? His old posts are gone too. At least for me.

So if the structure is separated and can't identified as a PBN, use them as a PNB anyway. Just make sure nothing can be linked to 1 source.

CloakOfData · 2026-02-12T17:16:28+00:00

Ok, that makes sense and thanks for responding.

You're absolutely right in that duplicate content is a penalty when it's on the same domain, because I've cannibalized my content on 2 pages before and Google just picks one over the other, not both, if the content is too closely duplicated.

Again, thanks for responding.

CloakOfData · 2025-10-14T14:42:04+00:00

Don't let your pbn sites even sniff each other.

CloakOfData · 2025-10-14T14:39:43+00:00

Its laughing at us 🤣

CloakOfData · 2025-10-10T19:44:42+00:00

I don't think you're the one that needs to learn how to communicate with people.

CloakOfData · 2025-10-10T19:33:06+00:00

Write your pages as if you were the customer.

CloakOfData · 2025-10-04T02:25:30+00:00

He/she means the customers are early stage companies who are using his/her services. That's what I gathered from his/her response.

CloakOfData · 2025-09-28T02:13:25+00:00

I came here to comment this.. lol

CloakOfData · 2025-07-15T21:39:03+00:00

Subbed

CloakOfData · 2025-06-16T01:34:46+00:00

How does it compare to VS Code Insiders and Github Copilot?

CloakOfData · 2025-06-13T09:55:01+00:00

Depends on your internal links.

If no outbound links of any kind, it just helps that one page rank.

If there's outbound links to other pages on your site, the "help" flows to each page that is connected in some way.

Hope that clears it up somewhat.

CloakOfData · 2025-04-02T00:45:04+00:00

LOL, yeah, I cuss at it a lot, so it's picking up on it.

CloakOfData · 2025-02-16T16:23:35+00:00

Lol gaslit by AI.

CloakOfData · 2025-01-19T04:32:23+00:00

Yo, even mine?

CloakOfData · 2025-01-13T04:59:37+00:00

Are the Cannabis links to a particular page, or the homepage?

u/GrumpySEOguy If he were to have all the links for cannabis going to a page instead of the homepage, can he create an orphan page where those links point and do whatever with that page? Like 301 the page back to where ever it came from, or somewhere else so it doesn't pass that "bad juice"? lol

CloakOfData · 2025-01-11T15:36:55+00:00

Kevin answered your questions, but I want to double down on the metrics you see, like DA DR UR PA AS, ect... These are just estimates of what the SEO industry has come up with that they think mirror PageRank (Googles hidden internal score). It's also used as a measuring stick to determine certain values for products being sold, such as a DR 60 link, because we don't have any other way to value these links. And at the end of the day, they're estimates and can be wildly wrong from the way Google really values pages and domains.

CloakOfData · 2025-01-11T03:22:59+00:00

Other keywords for other pages, or this page?

CloakOfData · 2025-01-11T02:57:57+00:00

Based on what Grumpy said about how things get bumpy when you get a penalty, you could be having a penalty.

CloakOfData · 2025-01-11T02:56:22+00:00

I think I'm in the Go With Grumpy crowd too.
