Spotify links not showing on GSC... Anything I can do? I've done a number of topic-related (athletic development, training athletes, supplements, health, et.c) podcasts as a way of gaining backlinks for my supplement Shopify store (google: wonder foods by propel). The podcasts are hosted on the main apps (Spotify, etc.) Except, on Google Search Console, these backlinks are not showing up. Is there a way to \*encourage\* Google to find them? 2 0 replies
ChatGPT sources showed online directory Yell as a source for branded search Now ChatGPT have their own search, I thought I’d do a branded search for our own company. I quite liked what came back, accurate and thorough. Lots of succinct info, along with key projects and testimonials. All our core contact info was there. I found it notable that the sources it chose (we’re in the uk) were our own site and Yell. Is it time to revisit optimising (reputable) directory channels like Yell? I mean, I know we should anyway, but in reality we’ve not treated them as a... 3 0 replies

From seo to marketing analytics or marketing automation? Hi all, I have been working as a seo specialist for about 2 years now. I want to develop further in the future beyond seo. I realised for myself that I don't really like the creative side of marketing (content writing, design creation and so on), I like the technical part more. I wrote a script on my work on python which searches for not obvious duplicates in semantics and I am thinking about making a small position monitoring panel. Which career path do you think is more logical... 5 0 replies

Looking for a marketer with a specialization in SEO Hi all, I recently launched a SaaS product earlier this year and so far it is going good. The total addressable market for the product is too huge and acquiring a small chunk of it could be a great deal. However, being a technical person I have so much on my plate and I am looking for a self motivated marketer with a specialization in SEO to join the product on an equity basis. If we have a nice synergy, this could turn into a long term relationship since... 5 0 replies
Question About Retaining Domain Authority When Moving to a New Website Hi everyone, I’m working on a project for a large organization that currently uses multiple subdomains for different locations (e.g., florida.organizationwebsite.com). One of these subdomains has a high domain authority, but I’m unable to edit or install plugins on it due to restrictions. The superuser suggested a solution: build a completely new website with a new domain and link the IPs of the existing subdomain to the new website. I assume this means some kind of redirect will be implemented. My main concern is this: if we move forward... 3 0 replies
How to verify or understand what appears to be backlink farming. I recently started engagement reporting as a content strategist for a portion of a major financial services website. It is essentially a top of funnel blog for one LOB. One article has historically had a crazy high traffic in comparison to all the other articles (like 3-4x more) and it's a topic that doesn't seem to warrant the interest. The semantic context of the page is all over the place too. The owner of this portion of site is not very bright and says this page has been a... 3 0 replies

Strange Ranking Fluctuations After Publishing I recently published a new post on my site, and it initially settled at position 33 for my target keyword. For three days, it remained steady there. However, when I checked again today (Monday), it completely disappeared from the rankings, not even appearing in the first 150 results. After a while, I checked again, and it was back at position 33. I asked ChatGPT about this, and it mentioned something about dynamic ranking, where Google’s results fluctuate below position 30. Has anyone experienced something like this? Does this dynamic... 3 0 replies

GA4 traffic lower than GSC Hello everyone. I've posted this in the Google Analytics subreddit too but I'll check here as well :) I'm struggling to find the issue with a Wordpress site I am working on. It's got both GA4 and GSC set up but there's a huge discrepancy between the two sites, with GA4 showing significantly lower traffic. I've had a look at just about everything (I think) and cannot find the reason why! So far, I've been over the following: \-filters (no filters would be blocking it) \-codes implemented in the... 3 0 replies
