Yeah, tried it. I've now gone down from 230 indexed pages to 144.

I figured it isn't much I can do at this point. Spread the content and eventually google will find it.

Funily enough, I actually receive more traffic from each of Baidu, Yandex and Bing than I receive from Google.

I think that shows how much trouble Google has. There is so much shitty spam they simply don't know what to index, and the users are starting to realise and leave.

Yeah thats also what i gather from twitter, that people doing programmatic seo are experiencing a downtrend

I'm not doing programmatic SEO though... I'm doing the old vanilla, based on purely my content.

At this point Google just sucks, plain and simple. Again, I get more traffic from Baidu alone, or Yandex alone, or Bing alone.

And the quality of the traffic is okay, people coming through organic search from other avenues than Google spend a fair bit of time on the websites.

I’m a European too. Lived here since tiny baby, now kinda old… 😂

It is so sad. The US has a few states like that, such as California and New York. But Europe, we’ve had many countries like that for decades. Sweden is a great example. And they are using the EU to force everyone to become like Sweden. Mass immigration, high tax (wastefully utilised), woke.

I've given up on Europe. Asia probably the best place.

  1. Calm and relaxed people.
  2. No wasting of taxpayer money on vanity projects the same way they do in the west.
  3. Authors not being chased for refusing to "recognise" there are "100+ genders", etc, etc.

The west has been in moral decline for 50 years. And while a few magnificent companies keep it afloat financially, eventually they too will crumble, or they need to outsource an ever increasing portion of their workforce.

With AI in full swing, taking jobs, I think there will be a bloodbath here before too long.

LatAm is cool but not as peaceful as Asia imho.

As a European I completely agree with the moral decline, it was imported rather quickly from the US. And US at least kept a freedom of speech. Look at Scotlands new law, it's only a downhill from there.

Hmm I am assuming that you already have pressed "Request index". Other than that there is not much to do other than wait for google to index it, sometimes it just takes time.

You could also try one of the "get indexed instantly" services but I wouldn't recommend it as they violate google's terms

What is my JTBD? What problem am I trying to solve?

Reviving your domain zarrasvand.com without putting in any work :)

Hmm, still lost. Am I reviewing it from an SEO perspective, or?

No, didn't try it. As I said, no idea what I would use it for so don't really know what I would be trying, if that makes sense?

Got it. I understand it doesn't make sense for you.
I'm just shopping around for opinions about the editor UX in general, even they might not use the final product.
Thank you :)

@marc Maybe worth making a poll before the hangouts with a link to vote?

This post is kinda meant for that. We can see most popular topics and kinda schedule those in ahead of time so people can plan to attend.

Yeah exactly. It is very clear you left it out because "it is so obvious" - well... :-)

We tried to improve a little with a new section on the site, a little bit of new UX in the editor and will add instructional GIFs and videos.
We also got a new group of people trying it with fresh eyes, let's see.
