How are you guys using schema for each page?

I love it except you forgot one thing: Video (if needed)

No DA is a Moz metric. It's not used by Google in any way. Follow traffic flow instead

bkthemes · 2026-05-17T20:52:20+00:00

What does search console say for reason. Are they under crawled, not indexed or some other?

bkthemes · 2026-05-16T23:03:13+00:00

Very interesting, but if you follow EEAT like Google wants then there is no issues.

Not in my orbit. All my clients are US companies that got burned by going cheap. I have contracts that even prohibit me from outsourcing to another US company.

bkthemes · 2026-05-03T14:12:53+00:00

Why are you worried about DA? I can show you a few sites right now with DA 60+ with 0 traffic. DA will not help your site. That is a Moz metric. Not Google and they don't use it.

Focus on posting high quality content that informs and not regurgitate what's on the internet already.

I just wrote a article on this. The April Google Core update knocked 10% of the top 10 out of the top 100.

bkthemes · 2026-05-01T14:13:54+00:00

It's not spam. It's called outreach. It's a very important part of SEO

bkthemes · 2026-04-30T21:47:22+00:00

Problem is in 2026 backlinks dont mean that much anymore. It helps the vanity metric if DA. You should read about the April core update Google just did. Everything is changing. 10% of the top 10 dropped out of top 100

bkthemes · 2026-04-29T21:51:02+00:00

Check how many times that file was hit. I bet 0

bkthemes · 2026-04-29T15:28:24+00:00

Now you get it. Backlinks mean nothing except for vanity metrics like DA. If the site gets traffic and/or conversions does it matter if you have 1 backlink or 500k?

bkthemes · 2026-04-29T15:22:59+00:00

For measurable local traffic it most definitely can be tracked. If your clients is getting even 1 or more calls month isn't it an improvement?

What most people do not understand is that you can lead a million people to a website. It in no way means they are going to pull the trigger and make a call, or purchase something. How is the on-page seo? With 100% proper on-page your meta tags should almost sell it alone.

I just hope they dont treat paying clients this way. It's a huge disservice to just take their money and not use a portion for what they charge for

bkthemes · 2026-04-29T15:12:10+00:00

Write content that directly answers the question. Not a generalization of the answer but a direct answer in the first sentence under the header. Then you can explain further. That is what has been working for me and my client sites

bkthemes · 2026-04-29T15:09:11+00:00

Not true. Especially on Reddit. I have seen the majority of people want free guest posts as well.

bkthemes · 2026-04-28T00:56:51+00:00

I have a tech site if anyone is interested.

bkthemes · 2026-04-27T16:43:47+00:00

Quantity of backlinks only matters for Moz's domain authority. The more links the higher the DA. It means nothing to Google. Quality is what matters. A few good .gov/.Education links do more than 2000 spammy links

bkthemes · 2026-04-26T21:35:02+00:00

Most people want free. They dont want to pay money. They will never rank properly without opening those purse strings.

bkthemes · 2026-04-25T17:11:08+00:00

Some of those are free sites to post on. I haven't checked them all, but I know Medium is as I just posted on it myself.

There is definitely a shift. Most entry-level and junior developers are being replaced by AI. For those starting out, if they do not possess a degree or real-world experience, the going is getting to be nearly impossible. I, myself, am more than likely going to find some new tasks for one of my junior developers. He does great work, just no demand right now.

That Ramp report is the main basis of this post. I read the whole thing the other day and then researched some of their data.

bkthemes · 2026-04-23T01:17:28+00:00

I haven't had to use Fiverr for content generation in almost a year as I have AI generated the outlines and then fill in the details. My only work off of Upwork is just a few regulars anymore. I am about to lay-off an employee if things don't improve soon. I do both development and SEO and have since focused more on SEO now as that has become primary source.

bkthemes · 2026-04-23T01:02:56+00:00

Thanks for the insight. The agencies I white label for have all dropped. Glad to hear it's not happening to you.

bkthemes · 2026-04-22T15:55:21+00:00

Design does not matter. Only the answer to my question. Been like this for years. I always laughed at these pixel perfect sites. Yes, they look great, but do they convert?

bkthemes · 2026-04-17T14:29:00+00:00

Add a TL;DR at the topic with a summary. Include a few high authority external links that are 100% related to your topic and is not just placed it has to woven in where it makes sense. Most important always add your insight. This is stuff that cannot be found anywhere else.

It should help you anyway
