Thanks for having me love

@pxue Hey Paul - Followed you for a long time but I'm a bit of a lurker. My agency https://t.co/HiQdC7jI5R specializes in B2B - Let me know if you'd like to chat

[Nile @Nile]

@gaetano_nyc I’d sponsor it for a job ad if you open up slots - Someone reading your newsletter is a green flag in a search

EEAT is a faith == the belief in the SEO community that adding author profiles and a few badges to your page actually fulfils an algorithmic factor and that Google will pick your "more EEAT" site over another. I think we strongly agree on this btw

Agreed that CTR/bounce (engagement) is the real measure

[Nile @Nile]

Appreciate the detailed reply here, I am learning!

BTW - I am certain duplicative content is a problem; I'm less certain on where Google draws the line between semantically-related content, synonymous content and overlapping ("cannibalizing") content.

I see three scenarios:
1. Duplicate content - I've published "phone answering service" twice
2. Synoymous Content - I've published "phone answering service" and "phone reply service"
3. Semantically-related Content - I've published "phone answering service" and "small business call answering service"

Scenario 1: Agree, duplicate content. I don't think of this as cannibalization (as opposed to just simple duplicate content)

Scenario 2: Partially agree - If SERP is the same, I understand cannibalization. If SERP differs (say 50% overlap), it stands to reason that Google can easily select the most semantically-relevant article from the two options, as it has already done it elsewhere on the SERP

Scenario 3: This is where I see cannibalization most talked about and where I'm unclear on exactly what "rules" the SEO community collectively believes Google follows here. Similar to scenario 2; if the SERPs are similar but have differences, that implies Google is able to separate relevance levels elsewhere on the SERP between pages; why can't it do it just because 2 relevant pages are on the same domain?

RE: Ranking empty pages - Only relevant as I'm questioning where Google's decision on relevance stops and ends - Maybe it really is page title & URL, but brings me back to my scenarios above!

[Nile @Nile]

EEAT is a faith! Why not cannibalization?

1. Google can rank empty pages
2. Google can rank the same domain twice on the same SERP
3. If Google can't decide which of 2 pages from a given domain to rank for a keyword, why would it rank neither?

W/ the above in mind, I don't have a strong theory for why cannibalization should exist/create a problem

Ever wish you could work with a $20K/month SEO agency?

We're building something that gets you pretty damn close - from $200/month.

SEO used to be pure gaming. Keyword stuffing, link networks, every trick in the book. One algo update and you'd go from champagne to ramen overnight.

Nowadays you can't just hack your way to the top anymore.

Here's the opportunity: Most SEO tools are built by people who've never done good SEO.

They're automating a bad process. Shitty blog posts that you don't even look at, spam links, and not a clue what's working (if anything).

Building this with @Nile - he runs a 7-figure SEO agency. We've both grown sites from thousands to millions of visits. Safe to say we know a thing or two.

We're taking the $240K/year agency playbook - all the systems, processes, and special sauce - and building these into agent flows, powered by the best LLMs for the job (Claude, of course)

I love a value-based offer that delivers real results. The kind where you can say "if it doesn't increase your traffic, get your money back." You get massive gains in search traffic, we get a small % of that value. Win-win.

We're starting by using it internally. Then opening to closed beta.

DMs open if you want to hear more.

It was just one outage. I think they're overreacting a bit.

Driven them all

Cayenne with the right spec (rear axel, PDCC etc) drives like a 911, range rover is like driving a boat in comparison. With alcantara + full leather package, the interior will be nicer than range rover too (sport seats tho, not as comfortable). Coupe model is much better looking than the base.

Cayenne Turbo (*Not* the GT) is the sweet-spot in the range, especially if buying pre-facelift E3 model.

BMW is meh, interior falls short
