@wilreynolds Pop quiz: Q: What do these 3 have in common?
Wilt Chamberlain
Russell Westbrook
Google
A: all 3 were well known stat padders.

@RyanJones Asking them to focus on a single snow flake instead of the blizzard? Most feel "semantic relevance" is baked in the content creation process. Many see it as asking them to bolt it on after the fact. Change "semantic relevance" to "Topical Authority" and it gets peoples attention.
@SethRubenstein@jeffr0 65-75% of the sites built with Wordpress would be classified as "mom and pop" as that is how many are less than 100 pages of content.
@jeffr0 Off hand I wasn't. Then I needed a rebuild for a site and did the template in stock html/css. It aced core-web-vitals on desktop with perfect score and wicked fast. So I am sure thinking about it now.
@CyrusShepard@semrush I wonder... I really just wonder if they they didn't buy it for the crawl tech and database only and don't care a rats behind about the seo aspects. They'll bastardize it for adobe analytics .... after all, a $billion to adobe is an barely an appetizer.
