Google has control of me It doesn't matter how many times I suffer I will still keep coming back for more

You're at a business event. ~1% of the attendees have (intentionally) shit themselves, and are waiting for you to ask them about the smell. This is how it feels to use LinkedIn.

🚨PR PEOPLE🚨 Who's the best person to hire for press mentions and backlinks? Newsjacking, expert input, features, maybe creative stuff idk UK preferred 🌍

I'm so sorry I can't stop laughing. OpenAI, the company built on stealing literally the entire internet, is crying because DeepSeek may have trained on the outputs from ChatGPT. They're crying their eyes out. What a bunch of hypocritical little babies. Cry more, freaks. www.ft.com/content/a0df...

turns out it's way more productive to do work instead of talking about it. weird

Welp, that sucks The latest algorithm update has finished rolling out and now I owe traffic back to Google

"YouTube sees this feature as the first step toward making it easier for creators who want companies to train AI on their videos, and perhaps be compensated for that training." Why would people opt in on the basis that they'd perhaps, maybe, be compensated one day in the future?

Merry Christmas! PS: your business is dead again

A very small amount of people are like tidal waves. You can try to become one, or you can learn to ride along. Most people are like the beach. They just sit watching everyone else's wave, and it makes them wet when they crash.

NEW: I've finished four weeks of research into the latest startup revenues and trending business ideas. If you know me you know I put my all into these and want to share a ton of insights (free). No ads. No aff links. Just the biggest updates from the past month. Gaps .com 🤝

We recommend the option where you get 0 more applicants, but we get 1,620 more monies

New freelancer shares a brief and when you open it, you see this. What do you do?

This is the cheat code for a successful business (but maybe not an enjoyable life for those around you)

Sigh, I've reached peak "anything but working feels unproductive" again

sorry but who else is doing niche product review content at this level of quality www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nuou...

My X engagement has officially passed away, RIP ⚰️ 9,000+ followers and tweet liked by accounts with ~25,000 combined followers...689 views and that's one of my recent top performers 😂

Just found out my chiropractor is subscribed to my email list LFG

The power of shiny object syndrome is so crazy to me Like, sure, I could earn £1m from my current project, BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS OTHER IDEA THAT COULD EARN YOU £10k??

I've been binging 'Ghost Town Living' on YT; fascinating how the mining industry thrives massively for such short periods of time, and then...nothing. Everyone leaves. It reminds me of blogging...and tweeting about it

Trying to learn things that will impress my son when he's older So far I: - can juggle - didn't leave when he was 6 months old What's next?

There's no way a Meet & Greet car park just sent me a Black Friday offer...right?

Are digital PR linkbuilding campaigns still a thing? As in, the idea of creating a viral asset, doing outreach and getting links? Or did everything change?

Every time I think Google can't possibly get worse I'm left holding a whole tray of their beers

Taking traffic away from big sites that didn't deserve it is great but it's gotta be redistributed to the sites that do deserve it. Currently, Google are using various updates to continually reduce traffic to EVERYONE - other than their own AI results that they stole from the sites they now punish.

When you treat SEO 100% as a bonus it completely reshapes how you approach content Minimal keyword research. No "time on page" boosting. Just value for your audience But it can still rank (in very competitive niches)

Finally! A human applicant on Upwork

Spent the last 3-4 years constantly jugging way too many tasks. Finally tick one off. Phew! Time to focus. *My brain* Why don't you just...spin another plate

Income, simplified: Lowest pay: follows instructions Slightly higher pay: "here's why this won't work" Huge increase on pay: "here's how to make this work"

Change your handle to your domain name: Settings > Change Handle > I have my own domain This way you can be @lrjordan.com, not lrjordan.bsky.social

OK, finally made it: A starter pack of people growing their own websites Builders, marketers, SEOs, and more Who else is growing their own project(s) and should be added? go.bsky.app/6Hfh7H2

Starter Packs are the new Expert Roundup and yes I will give you a quote in exchange for a backlink

The most common agency SEO mistake: confusing your wins with client wins. "We made this fun thing!" "We got 20 links!" "We got featured on the BBC!" Clients care about their bottom line. They've hired you to increase it. Talk to them about metrics their bosses will understand.

Who in SEO is still building their own projects? Is there anyone else left? 🪦🥀

The process for starting a successful blog has flipped. Here's my new blueprint: 1. Find an untapped or underserved niche 2. Create resources that lots of people find valuable 3. Trade your resources for ability to contact (emails) 4. Use email sequence to send content directly & monetise
