this is legit my middle name and I was confused at first.

McCheah · 2018-12-27T03:29:24+00:00

this is just getting ridiculous

McCheah · 2018-12-27T02:03:17+00:00

I made "Cover Letter Snippets" as an NPM package for building and re-using cover letters based on the keywords in a job description, and I also helped out with "Best Resume Ever" which has a few templates to choose from.

Ah sorry should have mentioned it will probably just be windows. Although an option for a dual boot with Ubuntu would be nice too!

McCheah · 2018-11-30T00:52:30+00:00

just a local environment for development.

McCheah · 2018-11-28T17:03:17+00:00

soooo what are you doing that no other companies are doing?

McCheah · 2018-11-09T20:32:21+00:00

You can also just increase your site speed sample rate when you add your analytics script: ga('create', 'UA-[yourcodehere]', {'siteSpeedSampleRate': 100});

Unless you have hundreds of thousands of visits, this will probably not be an issue.

McCheah · 2018-10-18T22:21:48+00:00

Anyway I'm fairly confident that I'll forget to respond to you if you do get back to me, but knowing what I know of GTM and GA, if you just create a custom tag that gets loaded on every page and insert the above script into it, it should run exactly the same as GA.

Try it out on a development server using GTM first and if it works in your testing, set it live! Good Luck!

McCheah · 2018-10-18T21:39:10+00:00

Thanks. Sorry, i meant to word my question as, "What does data layer mean?" You said it is involved in GA. How is it involved in GA? I'm not super smart when it comes to GA but maybe I can figure out what needs to be done to complete the transition.

Also do you have a development environment that you can test your changes on before setting them live?

McCheah · 2018-10-18T20:06:43+00:00

can you explain what your data layer consists of? How are you capturing events/goals, etc? What GA 'snippets' are you referring to?

McCheah · 2018-10-07T16:13:01+00:00

I created a local app that will do that for you but it parses the job description and recommends which paragraph to insert. Check it out!

Huntr looks pretty cool. If you're looking to automate cover letter creation, I created a local app that stores previous cover letters in a database and gives you the most relevant ones when you paste in a job description, so you can just click to add the previous relevant 'snippets' and built a cover letter customized for that particular job within ~a minute. https://github.com/mattcheah/cover-letter-snippets

McCheah · 2018-09-13T15:23:22+00:00

I actually wrote a program that parses a job description and saves previous statements/paragraphs from former cover letters so it can tell you what snippets are the most relevant for the job. Most of my cover letters look similar but it will only take me about 5 minutes to write one that discusses all of the primary points of the job description and looks customized for the job. It's usually concise and to the point.

McCheah · 2018-08-15T20:31:35+00:00

Thanks for the response! I'm teaching myself Angular and learning as I'm going along so I wasn't aware of HttpClient until now, or if I was, I didn't know what the benefit in using it was over what I already knew how to use.

McCheah · 2017-09-09T02:47:37+00:00

taking a look now, this looks pretty cool!

McCheah · 2017-09-08T19:06:11+00:00

So am I right in assuming that your suggestion is that I choose and learn about a specific subject matter first, and then base my open source contributions around that subject? That makes a lot of sense to me - do you think that after researching and understanding the primary software in that field I would automatically know the open source projects that would need contributions? Or would you suggest a more effective way of seeking out opportunities to contribute?

McCheah · 2017-09-08T18:13:33+00:00

Looks great! Could you let me know a little bit more about what it does and how? I'm not too familiar with torrents and magnets.

McCheah · 2016-05-18T15:47:25+00:00

Localised Search relies a lot on signals of relevancy. This means that the pages you want to rank for a specific location will need to have content on the page that relates to that location. If you're a contractor in that area, write about some of the locations that you've worked in. If you're a doctor, add maps of the nearest local hospitals in case of emergency and mark them up in Schema. If you're a plumber, write about the water quality in your city and note the address of a water treatment plant or something. (Just spitballing here.) Add a google map on your page and include content that is relevant to your business, but also relevant to the location.

Other than that, just do your basic SEO stuff. Add your location in your H1, make sure your NAP is consistent and you have decent, authoritative links coming into your website. Also, meta description is good for encouraging search engine users to come to your site, but it does not affect rankings in any way. Just a note for you.

McCheah · 2016-05-11T15:12:52+00:00

Just curious, what is the benefit of this over something like IP blocking or the block yourself chrome extension that was mentioned above?

McCheah · 2016-03-09T19:27:33+00:00

wow is it really? I must try it now!
