i only use LS in one of my products (#ubidrop) for the license situation i mentioned.

for anything else I use stripe

Got it. Thanks Alex for sharing, appreciate it. :)

the good:
- great for setting up simple checkout pages
- great for selling digital products (courses, books, etc)
- great for apps that need licenses (u dont need backend)
- nice design w/o effort

the bad:
- api/docs is confusing
- creating discounts is too complex for some reason
- people do not see the final price when they land on the checkout; could be problematic depending on your strategy

That's good to know, Alex :) Are you still using LS these days? I heard some people had problems with their payouts, but not sure either.

afaik google doesn't like pages with too much similar content, which could be the case, as most of it seems to be shared.

I always add the canonical of every page to be the page itself. seemed to be working fine

Ok got it, thank you. I'll give that a shot and see if it helps

I don't know if that alone will do it, besides of content probably improving internal linking also will help (linking from different parts of your website with different anchors to each page).

I already link to those different landing pages from my main page so not sure that’s it either 🤔

Will see what happens next time my site audit runs

there doesn't seem to be a canonical set to either of those pages, or something is off and it doesn't get picked up. might be related

I guess where I'm confused is: I thought the page itself would be auto marked as canonical if Google detects it as a different page...which it should since the content is not the same as the main landing page?

Not sure how to set this canonical prop otherwise, would you recommend setting the canonical as the current page or the main landing page in this case?

If main landing page, does that mean all the content on my discord landing page will be ignored? That's something I don't want to happen

Marc, you can even use this as an opportunity for people to share around their 'achievements' of the week.

I genuinely like this idea

What do you mean by friendly to post?

All subreddits are unless you are trying to do promotional stuff/spam.

Are you looking for founder communities or a way to promote products?
