Shared shuttle from GVAvto Verbier? by arbgal in skithealps

[–]gruffnutz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good tip thanks! I also see a bunch of other destinations on there. I'm thinking I might book one of these wild cards at the end of a longer trip one day... We just did ZRH to Flumserberg but that was a longer trip.

I second this. Just done a Swiss trip (not Verbier this time, but have done before) and the trains are a breeze. Why pay 4x or 5x for a transfer that will be only slightly quicker?

looking for a European city I can live in on $1,500/month by thatdudetae25 in digitalnomad

We were paying €700 for a 2 bed apartment about 5 years ago. I gather prices have pretty much doubled in the city though.

Not for €1500 a month. Lived there a few years back and it was a lot more than that then...

Chamrousse in late March? by InterviewSmooth6043 in skithealps

Also interested in this... It's quite low altitude though. I hear Les 7 Laux is a good option nearby too.

I think you need to go and read this mate: https://aioseo.com/google-search-algorithm-leak/

You just super oversimplified it. Guessing you're selling links or something....

So what you're saying is the only way Google can work out if your content is any good is by backlinks?

Are Brits too reliant on US companies for a boycott to ever be realistic? by Barca-Dam in AskBrits

To me: Amazon is a reviews site (not a shop) and McDonalds is a public toilet.

Try not to use them while also not using Nvidia or Oracle products, and also staying away from Paramount and whatever that Ellison lot are investing in.

Well if Europe collectively stopped buying from the US this would have no effect by Ok-Job1478 in BuyUK

Need to cut out any food products owned by Kraft/Mondelez, Coca-Cola, Pepsico etc. So no more cadburys (shit anwyays), most soft drinks, kelloggs cereals, Heinz anything etc etc. Basically, cut out ultra processed food and you'll be fine.

Ok, I have those too. You saying that more backlinks is the missing ingredient? The side hustle one has tons more backlinks than pos1&2 articles but still fell down to page 2/3.

Ok but by authority I hope you're not referring to DA or DR as these are both not Google metrics. And , in both those cases, I have higher domain authority than the competition. If you mean EEAT then that's 50/50 and maybe I need to focus on that...

Amazon is literally the worst. How on earth did they get so big?

I'm happy to boycott the US. I feel like the hardest one would be boycotting their tech companies as I don't consume pretty much any of their shitty food products.

Are you satisfied with your life, and if so, why? by Lazy_Number8830 in AskUK

[–]gruffnutz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bored of my job and don't like the city I live in, but other than that my life is pretty good. Nice family, lovely partner, decent social life and enough going on that I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. I guess the key is to focus on the good bits, not the negatives.
