I've never had a problem with posts being removed. My requests just seem to be ignored.

There are AI tools out there that can learn your personal writing style. Train one of those tools with your writing, then give the agency your trained tool to use so they can write like you. Google this phrase "is there an ai tool that can learn my writing style?"

Don't give up an asset.

Sadly, I can't even explain it to a 50yo. It's a serious problem.

Right there with ya. I've been programming for 30+ years and feel completely unemployable. I had a friend who warned me once, "don't leave the system" (meaning to not got independent). I left the system.

I burn out. Then I recover, and start again. But lately there isn't much motivation because on August 14 my website hit a record number of visitors and on August 15 Google changed its algorithm and by Aug 16 my traffic was halved. Burn out to me is directly tied to seeing results but, lately, I no longer see hard work as paying off. I'm starting to get back into it because last week a close...

I think it was on Reddit that people were discussing that it would take them months to just get their first order on Gumroad (or maybe it was Fiverr). I can understand that for people starting up without referrals, but if someone with existing clients asked their client to pay via one of these platforms, they can have early success (with immediate, positive, reviews) What are you...

I'm considering this question now. Google is the killer. The algorithm updates over the past year is killing small sites like mine. I'm watching my business fail live now, for the past 3 weeks.

I came back to PH a couple weeks ago not realizing this is...

The trouble with SEO is that Google changes its algorithm and all your hard work is in the trash. The August 15th update immediately crashed my search impressions by 87% overnight. My traffic is down 40%. I really don't see the point of climbing that hill again. Now for the good news: Yes, you should do all the basic SEO things, like titles and all the tag recommendations. The most amazing...

Plain old SEO

Bad design. I don't just mean in software. Example: in hardware, like a ps4, the buttons are hidden in the bevel, and the label icons are sooo tiny they can't be read in the dark which is how you often have a room in which you are gaming. I mean, why are they trying to hide the buttons? Everybody know devices have buttons - it's nothing to be ashamed of - just make them easy to find and press....
