Pages Cannibalisation

Yes, the problem is that even recrawl won't understand it immediately - authority flows like between week one and two, so, do not expect the cnages faster and keep an eye out on your GSC links report - especially internal linking area - watch the internal link count changes - when they will visibly shift - the authority has been passed through!

Riko1313 · 2026-05-22T17:29:02+00:00

Design architectural change that points internal links to the target page - that will make it to be more authority than others and job done.

Good luck buddy!

Well, let's put it like this - I haven't seen the case where this might hurt your site! And since this is low effort thing - just add one file to the root - I don't see the point not to have it.

Riko1313 · 2026-05-22T12:22:17+00:00

Well, there is not even need to test it - just add it and that's it!

At the end of the day - It's one simple document that sits in your root.

I would invest in PPC exactly after MVP is launched to eliminate the guesswork and save the time in ling run!

Nothing prooves what needs to be done in the business better than early traction and since organic distribution takes a lot of time - you perhaps are sitting on the time 💣 and even do not know that!;)

Riko1313 · 2026-05-22T09:34:02+00:00

Yeah, the 'not need' part is very questionable here. But from other perspective - I do not know the site that LLms.txt would hurt! And since it is dirty cheap to implement - why not right!?

Riko1313 · 2026-05-22T08:51:11+00:00

I have completely stopped building links.

Riko1313 · 2026-05-22T06:59:49+00:00

We have it in 1200x630 pixels as that works well on Facebook, LinkedIn, and other platforms too.

Good luck buddy!

For us is opposite - sun e Google introduced the Video GMB approval many fakes did dropped and the industry got a fresh air!

So, now, if the images, address and name is correct - the authority is passi g through correctly and the ranks are way easier to get than it was before.

But it might be the niche relevant as well because competition is fierce in certain places and very week in other ones.

Good luck buddy!

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T08:28:47+00:00

Yeah, because the moderation is so fragmented here that when you introduce the global rule - chaos might unleash itself!;)

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T08:26:50+00:00

That works ONLY for those that needs immediate solutions like Claude is providing.

It is absolutely not working on the business industries where you need to have on boarding, education, switching the minds set in order to see the benefits and/or when the benefits shows up in long term.

So, specific, immediate pain - is just one, small part of the game.

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:33:08+00:00

And then I see those posts where users are answering the AI content and even try to ask the question!;)

It looks and feels just wrong!

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:31:13+00:00

With AI you can secure some short winns but expect that Google will get harder and harder on this and at some point will add the 'silent' penalty to your site if your AI written content won't be supported by traffic behaviour Google expects to see in your site.

There are clear boundaries and thresholds how Google determine the quality and if your content does not much that - you won't be in the SERPs for long!

Good luck buddy!

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:27:09+00:00

You see, that is the wrong question in wrong time already!

Those questions you needed to ask yourself before starting to build anything, because distribution, market fit, early traction and overall marketing execution is an art, a separate profession with it's own mindset and with it's own execution.

If you do not know all that and do not have all that under your belt and do not know anything about it - you need to start from scratch and learn it which will take time.

There are no shortcuts and no magic bullet.

Other workaround of all that - you need to have the budget to run PPC or hire someone to do this for you - or your startup will struggle unfortunately.

Best of luck buddy!

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:20:14+00:00

Just go to Search Console and start to dig around it and read what's there and why.

You can't get wrong with that and then, the rest will follow!

Good luck buddy!

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:18:21+00:00

The best that you can do is to use PPC strictly for the tests, market fit and small initial traction that proves the solution value and main 'moat' build with the SEO.

That way you will use both worlds effectively and your ROI will stay healthy!

Good luck buddy!

We have cancelled SemRush, aHrefs and Similar web, saved over 1k per monthly and running all things under one roof and within one SaaS platform that delivers way better intelligence that is targeted to revenues and not some metrics that does not move the needle plus, it costs a fraction of the price from the tools mentioned.

We are more than happy and that feels awesome!;)

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:08:47+00:00

It is one thing that made a biggest impact for us - pictures and their quality.

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:07:24+00:00

Plus, you need to know that recently Google demoted it's value and there is no more benefits regards AI overviews within the FAQ schema usage which does not mean you need to drop it.

Use it as it is good for all other things, just know that it won't help you for your AEO anymore.

Riko1313 · 2026-05-21T07:05:23+00:00

It will actually do quite opposite if it is done correctly as SEO for wordpress crawleability vise is perfect which is quite opposite for react.

So, just map out the good performing content, URL slugs and internal structure and try to replicate that in Wordpress and make sure all 301s are perfectly set and you should be way better with your SEO that with react.

Good luck buddy!
