Nope, I got over that years ago.
Just have good content and remove barriers to indexing and to the visitors use and enjoyment.
Have other channels besides Google search --because there are millions of webmasters trying to fool 'Mother Google' and you will never keep up.

Funny thing is; Google search will take notice of the traffic from those other channels and that traffic's on site metrics --at the end of the day --that matters more than SEO 'experts' and their misadvice.
 
You get what you give
Sometimes I see angels
flapping their feathery wings
to a blood red sunset over the vast blue ocean
a light breeze on my face
soft golden sand at my feet
can just close my eyes and feel the purity
like tasting a rich beef goulash
perfectly cooked vegetables
and spicy paprika
thats what it feels like
when all the hours of learning SEO
finally come together
in a glorious flood of high quality organic Google traffic
and the commission clicks come pinging in
while all those Sandbox theorists
who dont put in the hours
and dont really understand the algorithm
cant even get indexed

Google does what Google does and then changes it's mind and moves the goalpost.
You're screwed --start over again --been there too many times
That is fun my friend
and people who dont stay updated
get their websites outdated
and I win their customers
technology doesnt change?
military weapons dont change?
the weather doesnt change?
the markets dont change?
everything changes
 
Well, when you follow the crowd you don't stand out.

Really this is aimed at
The Google Sandbox Myth Brigade
so much whining about Google
  • "why doesnt google index my website?" --> low quality content
  • "why is the google algorithm is always changing?" --> to fight spammers
  • "why is the google spider so slow" --> its not slow your website is slow
  • "I did everything right and its still not working?" --> really? did you do EVERYTHING right? I doubt it
not as important if you rely on paid ads or social traffic or links
but for those affiliates who rely on organic traffic
Why so little advanced SEO chat?
1+1=2
 
How many of you Sandboxers
actually are subscribed to the Google SEO channel?
and watch all the videos
gonna guess less than 5%
and dont give me any nonsense about
"I havent got enough time"
because it takes average 20 minutes daily
to watch all the Google SEO videos
if you cant spare 20 minutes
you shouldnt be an SEO affiliate publisher
 
Thats sad news
I will be unsubscribing
Brian Dean made Backlinko what it is
Semrush will undoubtedly ruin it
TY for sharing @Clay_P
also I use Ubersuggest
not interested in using Semrush
 
Approach what Google says and others touted as SEO 'experts' with extreme cynicism.
Not quite
I approach what Google says with extreme attention
but what the so called gurus say I generally ignore
for example the Sandbox Hoax
which is a steaming pile of cow crap
and anyone who believes it
or spreads it
deserves contempt
I think mostly they are back stabbers or full of shit mainly.
I mean thats an interesting opinion
hard to prove or disprove
until I am stabbed in the back
or forced to eat shit
neither of which happened yet
Google eats the pie and throws you the crust like you are their dog.
Thats an interesting analogy
I just follow the rules and get traffic
if the rules change I follow the new rules
I am not Googles bitch
but an affiliate publisher with SEO as traffic source
what do you suggest I do differently?
 
That is fun my friend

I don't work for google
You don't get it .... My time is mine
I did this shit years ago --played the game --boring after a while
Marketing concepts have not changed at all! Tactics change on the internet.

I spent $5K on Quantum computing stock last week --butt hurt the NASDAQ corrected.
But that is the future -- not what some clown farts out on Google TV LMAO
That was my research time -- not licking Google's ass

But it is a learning curve we all do it.
 
Can I at least enjoy the ride?
...
let me get my heart broken

SEO is always changing
as Google deploys new algorithm updates
some are public & some are private
I spend 1+ hour daily learning SEO
do you?
Not that much, to be quite honest, as I don't have much time, unfortunately, but I am trying to catch up with trends and updates by reading forum threads and by following some big names in that sector that always publish news quickly. It's not easy to stay updated all the time, but this is something that I do not to miss something important and to know if I have to some modifications on the site.

30 minutes daily
that's all it takes
to be smart about SEO
1 hour daily and you can be pro
learnt to ignore the SEO news sites
and just go straight to source
I will post the list shortly
 
until I am stabbed in the back
or forced to eat shit
neither of which happened yet
Give it time ...

Make the best user experience and content you can that will be enjoyed by most of your audience and do not try to over optimize the SEO aspects. Don't be manipulative when presenting real content; most people can spot that or find such actions untrustworthy. Lose trust and you lose the customer.
