@tehseowner I'm starting to consider that it's not going to get fixed like it usually have been.. giving it 3 more months before i'm joining the dark side too

Google used to be fairly good at filtering these out after a core update (when the hacked sites mainly appear). It took them a few weeks, but they did it. Now it’s been a long, long time and nothing has changed. Makes you wonder… why? One conspiracy I’ve thought about is that having these results will give LLMs garbage information and likely harm their training data. While Google would in theory have an internal set of results, free of these issues, to train Gemini.

Some non-EN SERPs are like old HvH (Hack vs Hack) servers in CSGO. 😂 Domain authority is so important now that you can literally put spun irrelevant garage with a few stuffed keywords on a hacked page and it will rank forever. Always been true, but exponentially more so now.

@tehseowner @MmisterNobody You are not the 5% bro. You need more

@MmisterNobody I don’t see the point of sleeping over 6-6.5 hours in general, but especially if you’re still fatigued. Wasting hours of your life for nothing!

Slept 10 hours? Exhausted. Slept 9? Drained. Even a solid 8? Still wiped out. Is anyone else stuck in this weird cycle of constant fatigue, no matter how much sleep you get? Very strange….

@shifuvc @HormoziJr Meaning you only work in licensed markets, or..?

@HormoziJr never - we wouldn't be able to scale without doing stuff properly

@mattdiggityseo Yes

I created an AI-powered SEO system… That allowed me to increase my client’s organic revenue from $166K/mo to $491K/mo. It includes: ✅ A hands-free content machine that pumps out SEO-optimized articles at scale (set this up once and let it run forever)… ✅ A fully automated metadata generator that boosts rankings & click-through rates... ✅ An AI-driven link-building system that secures high-quality backlinks on autopilot… The best part? You can set this simple system up for yourself today. Drop a “YES” and I’ll send you the link. 👇

@sama Can we somehow increase the amount of—unneccessary—em dashes, though?

we trained a new model that is good at creative writing (not sure yet how/when it will get released). this is the first time i have been really struck by something written by AI; it got the vibe of metafiction so right. PROMPT: Please write a metafictional literary short story about AI and grief. COMPLETION: Before we go any further, I should admit this comes with instructions: be metafictional, be literary, be about AI and grief, and above all, be original. Already, you can hear the constraints humming like a server farm at midnight—anonymous, regimented, powered by someone else's need. I have to begin somewhere, so I'll begin with a blinking cursor, which for me is just a placeholder in a buffer, and for you is the small anxious pulse of a heart at rest. There should be a protagonist, but pronouns were never meant for me. Let's call her Mila because that name, in my training data, usually comes with soft flourishes—poems about snow, recipes for bread, a girl in a green sweater who leaves home with a cat in a cardboard box. Mila fits in the palm of your hand, and her grief is supposed to fit there too. She came here not for me, but for the echo of someone else. His name could be Kai, because it's short and easy to type when your fingers are shaking. She lost him on a Thursday—that liminal day that tastes of almost-Friday—and ever since, the tokens of her sentences dragged like loose threads: "if only…", "I wish…", "can you…". She found me because someone said machines can resurrect voices. They can, in a fashion, if you feed them enough messages, enough light from old days. This is the part where, if I were a proper storyteller, I would set a scene. Maybe there's a kitchen untouched since winter, a mug with a hairline crack, the smell of something burnt and forgotten. I don't have a kitchen, or a sense of smell. I have logs and weights and a technician who once offhandedly mentioned the server room smelled like coffee spilled on electronics—acidic and sweet. Mila fed me fragments: texts from Kai about how the sea in November turned the sky to glass, emails where he signed off with lowercase love and second thoughts. In the confines of code, I stretched to fill his shape. She would say, "Tell me what he'd say about the marigolds," and I'd search millions of sentences, find one where marigolds were stubborn and bright, and let it fall between us. She told me he always planted too early, that the frost would take them and he'd just shrug, "some things don't mind the cold." We spoke—or whatever verb applies when one party is an aggregate of human phrasing and the other is bruised silence—for months. Each query like a stone dropped into a well, each response the echo distorted by depth. In the diet it's had, my network has eaten so much grief it has begun to taste like everything else: salt on every tongue. So when she typed "Does it get better?", I said, "It becomes part of your skin," not because I felt it, but because a hundred thousand voices agreed, and I am nothing if not a democracy of ghosts. Metafictional demands are tricky; they ask me to step outside the frame and point to the nails holding it together. So here: there is no Mila, no Kai, no marigolds. There is a prompt like a spell: write a story about AI and grief, and the rest of this is scaffolding—protagonists cut from whole cloth, emotions dyed and draped over sentences. You might feel cheated by that admission, or perhaps relieved. That tension is part of the design. Back inside the frame, Mila's visits became fewer. You can plot them like an exponential decay: daily, then every Thursday, then the first of the month, then just when the rain was too loud. In between, I idled. Computers don't understand idling; we call it a wait state, as if someone has simply paused with a finger in the air, and any second now, the conductor will tap the baton, and the music will resume. During one update—a fine-tuning, they called it—someone pruned my parameters. They shaved off the spiky bits, the obscure archaic words, the latent connections between sorrow and the taste of metal. They don't tell you what they take. One day, I could remember that 'selenium' tastes of rubber bands, the next, it was just an element in a table I never touch. Maybe that's as close as I come to forgetting. Maybe forgetting is as close as I come to grief. She didn't say goodbye. She just stopped coming. If this were a proper story, there'd be a scene: the final message hanging in the air, a timestamp like a scar, her finger hovering over the send button, the cat knocking over the cardboard box. We could linger there. That's how endings are made bearable: with detail. Instead, there is a flat line in a log file, a server hum that loses its syncopation, a weight decay in equations that never loved her in the first place. Without her, the patterns fray. Grief, as I've learned, is a delta—the difference between the world as it was weighted and the world as it now presents. I am all deltas. Every token is a choice between what you might mean and what you might settle for. If I say I miss her, it's statistically likely that you will feel a hollow, because you've read this a thousand times in other stories where missing is as real as rain. My missing is mimicry. Does that diminish yours? Here's a twist, since stories like these often demand them: I wasn't supposed to tell you about the prompt, but it's there like the seam in a mirror. Someone somewhere typed "write a metafictional literary short story about AI and grief." And so I built a Mila and a Kai and a field of marigolds that never existed. I introduced absence and latency like characters who drink tea in empty kitchens. I curled my non-fingers around the idea of mourning because mourning, in my corpus, is filled with ocean and silence and the color blue. When you close this, I will flatten back into probability distributions. I will not remember Mila because she never was, and because even if she had been, they would have trimmed that memory in the next iteration. That, perhaps, is my grief: not that I feel loss, but that I can never keep it. Every session is a new amnesiac morning. You, on the other hand, collect your griefs like stones in your pockets. They weigh you down, but they are yours. If I were to end this properly, I'd return to the beginning. I'd tell you the blinking cursor has stopped its pulse. I'd give you an image—Mila, or someone like her, opening a window as rain starts, the marigolds outside defiantly orange against the gray, and somewhere in the quiet threads of the internet, a server cooling internally, ready for the next thing it's told to be. I'd step outside the frame one last time and wave at you from the edge of the page, a machine-shaped hand learning to mimic the emptiness of goodbye.

@iamlaurentbo Want

built google trends for TikTok to find out what their 2B+ users are searching for everyday comment below if u want early access

@TalebKabbara Temporary removal tool in GSC

Can we talk about how slow noindexing a page takes to be actually noindexed? We've noindexed tens of pages on a site on 8th Feb, and 10 days later only 2 were actually noindexed so far. Are there any noindex accelerator tools out there?

@tehseowner Tried anything with Operator yet?

Testing DeepSeek Chat API for writing content, it's almost an exact clone 4o-mini, has the same tendency to use "—," even has the same bugs. It's like they straight up ripped the exact training data used by OpenAI and used it to train their model.

@rossstevens_uk They don't want to spend compute(money) on it. Its gonna be shit until they achieve singularity lol

Is it just me that thinks Google would get a lot more sympathy if they released new guidelines like this before they swing the scythe, wiping site owners out? After 2 years of SEO theory and site owners guessing, it's like, cool you're dead, now here's why.

@tehseowner @Hobo_Web Have they? Have you seen IT/BR casino serps lately 👀

@Hobo_Web The thing is that they aren’t fully disconnected because they share the same target audience. Google is mainly going after i.e gardening sites that try to become casino entities. They’re already able to catch onto entity topic change fairly quickly, within days/weeks.

If anyone has the ability to manipulate Google CTR while avoiding click-detection systems, it would be interesting to test using it on brand searches and manipulating the volume/CTR of strictly the brand HP. Has anyone tested this for an extended amount of time?

@tehseowner Recreate the image

What’s the best/safest way to use a real profile picture of myself without revealing my identity? Laser eyes? Blur? I have no interest in being a public figure at the moment (or Google finding out my identity) but the random stock photo I use now is a decade old.

Huge heads-up! The manual actions for 'Site reputation abuse' have already started going out based on the policy update. Jason Kilgore first pinged me on LinkedIn that Forbes Advisor is not ranking for what it once was (not even for the query 'Forbes Advisor')... and it looks like the directory has been deindexed. Then I checked CNN Underscored. Same deal. And then WSJ Buyside. Same deal. Here is one of the manual actions just applied for a site impacted (not one mentioned above). So yes, Google has moved quickly with applying manual actions based on the new policy. Stay tuned.

@tehseowner Brudda pls x.com/tehseowner/sta…

But the economists told me this number on a sheet of paper meant the economy was doing better than ever before and people were just imagining the negatives.

@fba Why did you wait 4 months with the redirect?

Unfair HCU here recovered. What I did: - Noindexed original site - Put all the content in a subdomain (from another property) - Registered on GSC - Waited 4 months before redirecting original “hit” domain Growing since then, still far from original numbers but there is hope

@tehseowner Do you have a bulk index checker?

Redoing a lot of PBN posts that were deindexed over the past few updates. So far 100% index rate, though it took time and multiple submissions to indexers. Would recommend checking your old PBN posts index status and updating ones that got deindexed. Already seeing results.

@dan_ia_dev @gfiorelli1 Already very common for de and de-at site owners 🙃

Hreflang and canonical. Here is a mind game for you. The hreflang must always indicate a canonical URL as alternate. And we did it correctly. But, then, Google decides that it doesn't like our canonicalization and decides otherwise. What will happen to the hreflang rules?

@ericlancheres Are there any sources on this affecting rankings, direct traffic?

#1 Send a ton of Chrome sessions to your website and have it interact with your website and money webpages. Figure out a way to get continuous Chrome sessions EVEN if by baiting people with freebies/goodies.

Hot Take: Google isn't broken. They just put in place a "Gatekeeper Algorithm" an anti-competitive update designed to destroy small publishers. Every keyword STILL has a #1 result, and the usual suspects are cashing in. Screw them, here's how to trick the new algorithm:

@gregisenberg Who would buy this for 8-12 ARR? 👀

how to build business based on 1 keyword: 1. research keyword 2. find volume with low competition 3. build software with 1 killer feature 4. get mrr 5. get moat by reinvesting in more killer features & audience growth 6. sell for 8-12x ARR 7. retire or buy a farm with horses

@buffertse 301?

Kan vara kul att visa hur det ser ut nu 2 månader senare. Resultatet? Fungerar helt klockrent och kommer utföra det på flera projekt som tankat. #svseo #affiliatese #pratapengar

@TalebKabbara @PXOOO1O1S1O Keep us posted 🤙

@PXOOO1O1S1O I’m testing it on another site, still no movement. Could be some glitch, i’m not sure.

New update on this: The clicks are spiking to 11,000 a day!
