@kellogh BTW, drop me a line if you'd like some help with that. Happy to give you a few points. Our community is where I'm most accessible these days ( https://t.co/rxr6WPVn8L )

Hello people that still follow this account. I added another installment to my SEO for Non-Scumbags series, if you want to check that out.

This one talks about doing keyword research as a function of how mature and authoritative your site is.

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@kellogh I think that's because SEO content creators (and digital marketers more broadly) try to create content that applies to any marketing funnel. But that makes it so broad and abstract as to be fairly useless. Kind of like creating content about "here's how to program"

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

Oh, my bad, I faceplanted on the TBOF link. Log out of twitter for a few months and forget how the internet works. Anyway, this one should be less useless: https://t.co/LOJd0HfnLg

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

I interrupt my usual not-logging-into-twitter to do a couple of quick announcements:

1. I wrote a blog post recently, continuing the SEO for non-scumbags series: https://t.co/sTG4MGDZVt

2. @FreelanceBizPod is back! Episode 1 of season 3 is live: https://t.co/GmSC14pBjV

Hey folks. I did a blog post after a long hiatus!

I don't make it to the Twitters very often anymore, but for anyone following me here to learn about new blog content, I figured I owed you a pro forma note.

Here's the post: https://t.co/DAA988bT5J

More to come.

A-cheers!

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@owenbickford @mikirez I'm glad to hear it -- thanks for the kind words!

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@BennettGarner Thanks for the kind words and the recommendation! I don't make it onto the Twitters a lot these days, but it's nice to see something like this when I do :)

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

Thanks for the kind words!

We're excited to have @HitSubscribe CEO @daedtech on stage Thu. Erik is a longtime software engineer and blogger, who combined those pursuits to start a business of matching devtools companies needing content with engineers that want to write about tech. https://t.co/h6cuFcr9IW

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

Looking forward to it -- thanks for having me!

I invite anyone following me to tune in, if you're interested in a decision-making framework around content for your site or business.

[Heavybit @heavybit]

We're excited to kick off 2022 programming with a Speaker Series by @daedtech, the CEO and Founder of @HitSubscribe. Join us next Thu Feb 17 as he walks us through his early-stage content strategy: earning trust, managing risk, and building momentum. https://t.co/h6cuFcr9IW

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@NoWhiteboardOrg I'm thinking of doing a case study chapter in the series. I appreciate the feedback that this would be useful.

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

Hey, new content on DaedTech today!

I'm continuing my SEO for Non-Scumbags series with details about how I (and Hit Subscribe) approach keyword research.

We've managed to earn many millions of visitors with it, so it's gotta be at least half-effective

https://t.co/ZACjwE13RH

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@NoWhiteboardOrg In fact, I *recommend* this approach for brand new sites and/or sites with domain authority below ~20.

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@NoWhiteboardOrg Yes, definitely target 0 volume phrases. We did that as an experiment at one point, targeting 0 volume long tail, response keywords, and in aggregate those posts yielded thousands of monthly visitors.

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@NoWhiteboardOrg I do know that I can force ahrefs to do a cache update, so perhaps others work in similar fashion (though KE does not, AFAICT)

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

@NoWhiteboardOrg Thanks for the kind words! Regarding the caching, I'm referring to the tools doing the caching, rather than Google. (Google has its own peculiarities about this data, since they don't intend planner as a keyword research tool). And I don't know how the tools prioritize terms.

[Erik Dietrich @daedtech]

Thanks for having me! I enjoyed the chat.

I'm kinda floored at how many of our SaaS-y/monthly vendors make it hard to pre-pay a year of service, or flat out don't support it. Even for no discount.

I mean, no shade or complaints, per se. Just seems like standard response to "want some free cash flow" would be "yup."
