research/transfer 3 backlink opportunities from V1 to V2. 49% done #seokickstarter

created new antifraud rules for weegee.ch - found out that frauders have uploaded around 10 listings in the past 3 days without me noticing 😕

add estimate how many new startups a directory has added in the past 6 months. Still researching for #seokickstarter

Went to the gym (1h, 4 sets, 10 reps) #life

Got playwright to connect to my running Arc instance - automation: level up

traffic estimator tweet got 96 replies - so I ran it 96 times and replied the results back - some new training data 🙂

created traffic estimator which is A LOT better than similarwebs estimator. Checking against real life values (asked on twitter & bluesky)

I compared similarweb, ahrefs and semrushs traffic predictions against 8 websites I have traffic data from. Turns out that semrushs prediction is best (green means it's less than 50% off the reality)

comparing traffic numbers of similarweb vs ahrefs vs semrush

my goal this week was to research and renew 60 backlinks from my SEO Kickstarter guide - turns out I overdo every single of them and it takes me 30m to 60m to research and rewrite the entries. Only 40 done so far despite investing 3 full days.

Spending the day in the train coding

analyzed peerlist and thehiveindex.com for backlink opportunities - wrote a new entry for both for my SEO Kickstarter v2 list (both above 200 words, took me around 1h each)

backlink research: found a way to see how much DR impact a backlink will have (useful e.g. when considering buying a backlink or writing a guest post)

Finally doing fulltime indiehacking - at least for a week :)

wrote howtos for github and yourstory backlinks - progress is WAY SLOWER than expected but as long as there is progress I'm going to enjoy this

Analyzed how likely you're included in the producthunt newsletter when you're in the top x

analyzed which backlinks you get when hitting producthunt top 5

rewrote the produchunt backlink guide, realizing how much research I already did on this one which I can just write down

Add example backlinks for every backlink opportunity #seokickstarter
