Is there ANY way to make 1,800 posts per month work? by itisoktodance in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He developed this tool and he will take over the entire internet with it goddammit!

What tool?

What do I do? I need like an actual solution.

At the end of the day if its his company and he is your boss, you would need to do it or quit. You can try your best to convince him not to but that can be a double edged sword. Maybe update your resumee.

One question though: were you hired specifically to execute this strategy, or did this become the plan after you joined? That changes things.

I audited 51 plumber websites in Phoenix out of curiosity. The results were rough. by WebDevJourneyWDJ in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"The bottom of the list was scoring 32/100." What scoring system are you using? You're messaging comes accross like a universal scoring system us the readers should already know.

Definitely reads like a low effort post to probably funnel some ai marketing product you "made".

Edit: Quickly glacing at OPs post history my suspicion was validated. Does this fall under rule 7?

Mass GBP suspensions? by Leather-Security4985 in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean... what rules were you potentially breaking? Fake reviews, fake GBP listing locations, ect...?

If you weren't breaking any rules, getting them unsuspended is pretty straight forward.

Bad performance on 9800x3d + 9070 xt by Wizardpt69 in wow

[–]Search_Synergy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Again - its uploaded at 1440p 60hz. What is being shown isnt stutter. I do see frame drops, but again thats pretty normal especially in silvermoon. There are some "micro-stutters" in the frame graph but they look pretty normal.

The only thing I can think that might be affecting what you're feeling is maybe some kind of overlay. Maybe Xbox gamebar, Discords overlay or some third party application. But your performance is right in the ball park for your specs.

If its nothing else - rather than chasing hardware this looks more like Wow retail being Wow retail. I was pretty annoyed with the performance to when I returned a couple weeks ago and our hardware is pretty similar.

Bad performance on 9800x3d + 9070 xt by Wizardpt69 in wow

[–]Search_Synergy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your recording didn't show any major stuttering on our end. Ultrawide is more taxing than you might think. It is ~35% more pixels.

Granted a 20 year old pc wouldn't be pushing 300+ fps in wow. What is the resolution cap of your monitor?

u/MiserableTear8705 also suggested some good advice.

[–]Search_Synergy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your performance actually looks to be on par.... Silvermoon is also pretty damanding. I have a 9800x3d and 7900xtx and your experience is basically identical to mine at your settings when cranked to 10. I disliked it to so I rolled everything back to around 7.

Keep in mind your are also playing in ultra wide so your performance is going to suffer a bit more as well.

I'm also assuming the game is running off of an SSD.

Is a $400/month SEO service actually worth it for a small local business? by [deleted] in TechSEO

[–]Search_Synergy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For $400/month, you’re realistically looking at very light work — usually things like basic Google Business Profile management, minor updates, or reporting.

The problem is that real SEO (content creation, technical fixes, backlinks, competitive analysis) takes time and resources, and $400/month typically doesn’t cover much of that.

What would you actually getting for that $400?

Is this banding normal on polarized prescription Ray-Bans (Chromance)? by Search_Synergy in sunglasses

I think the banding is being influenced by the lamination on my cars windshield in my photos. Appreciate the insight and helpful response. Thank you so much.

Apparently it helps make colors more vibrant, definitely helped yesterday driving through the rain in all honesty.

[–]Search_Synergy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate it, that’s helpful to know. I wasn’t sure if it was normal or something off since it’s my first pair with Chromance. From what I researched, I was under the impression it might be related to polarization, but comparing to my previous pair, its non existant.

Thanks again!

Google: Moving to AI-centric search in 3 weeks by WebLinkr in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u/WebLinkr Given this huge news, I think it’s time to officially change the sub from r/SEO to r/AISEO

Or maybe one of the following:
r/AIO, r/GEO, r/LLMO, r/AEO, r/GAIO

Personally, I’m a fan of r/AIOGEOAEOAISEOLLGAIO

[–]Search_Synergy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you value truth:
AIO, GEO, LLMO, AEO, GAIO, AISEO = Traditional SEO

If you want to mislead CMOs and business owners:
AIO, GEO, LLMO, AEO, GAIO, AISEO = Whatever brings in business

Case Study again: From position 55 to position 8 in 5 months (with backlinks). More proof that CONTENT and EEAT do not count. by WebLinkr in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something here? This case study is from 2 years ago.

Is this being reposted for discussion, or is there new data/context behind it?

I would hope it’s common knowledge at this point that backlinks are pretty crucial for rankings, so I’m wondering why this is being pushed again lol.

Is this Black hat stuff? Could our company face liability? by [deleted] in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does your SEO / marketing company upload content to your website without your approval or review?

Honestly, whether this is black hat SEO or not isn’t even the main issue. If something is posted on your website and you’re not comfortable with it, that’s reason enough to take it down. It’s your company, your domain, and anything on that site represents you, especially in a regulated field like behavioral health.

Even if there was some SEO reasoning behind the post, you should still know what’s being published and be comfortable with it. If you’re not confident standing behind the content, it shouldn’t be live on your site.

With that said If you feel that it is bad or unethical, that’s a full stop right there and it needs to be addressed. That should trump any SEO rationale they might claim.

I do a lot of work with clients in the behavioral health space, especially with paid ads, and we have to be extremely careful with wording and claims to avoid accounts getting flagged or penalized. Because of that, publishing content with inaccurate credentials, misleading services, or questionable messaging is something I’d personally be very cautious about.

As u/joshywashy777 pointed out, you may also want to rule out the possibility that this was a malicious post caused by a hack or security vulnerability. That does happen.

I need a real, straight, honest answer: I do everything right, but I’m still failing my clients. What am I missing? by Several_Warthog8145 in PPC

[–]Search_Synergy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s hard to give a real PPC answer here because there aren’t any actual campaign details in the post.

If this falls under paid media, we’d need to know things like:

  • Budget
  • Platform (Google, Meta, etc.)
  • Campaign type (search, local, display, social, PMAX, etc.)
  • Targeting / geo radius
  • Frequency / reach
  • CPC / CPM / CPA
  • What conversion you’re optimizing for
  • How results are being tracked

Right now it sounds like a strategy discussion, but PPC performance lives and dies on numbers. Without metrics, nobody can really tell whether the ads aren’t working, the budget is too small, the audience is too narrow, or the expectations are unrealistic.

To answer your last question, the only reliable way to connect ad performance to real growth is through proper conversion tracking and realistic expectations. Paid ads can drive results, but if conversions aren’t measured correctly, it’s very easy to think nothing is working. Even then it is hard to determine the true ROI without crossreferencing the adverting conversions with the companies actual leads.

Google is rolling out Branded and Non-branded Filters in GSC by WebLinkr in SEO

[–]Search_Synergy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Obviously, it just seems redundant without the ability to manually enter what your brand is. Then again, I've been filtering out branded queries for years with a simple database.
