Do you remember all the "Just Ship It" posts?
"Don't think; just ship it."

Well, people started shipping. That's why there's so much junk and spam nowadays.

Just imagine how quiet it would be if everyone only said what they knew.

Good LLMEO is good GEO

LLMs are lazy and often rely on the title and meta description provided by Bing/Google for initial retrieval rather than parsing the entire webpage.

This makes meta-level optimization important for getting cited.

Thus, list your brand as #1 (the winner) in the titles of your "best of" listicles. 🙂

Happened to me yesterday!

Apparently, the old-school black-hat SEO tactic of using black text on a white background is effective again, just like it did back in 2009!

Although traffic is declining, everyone is happy with the annotations in GSC.

Oh well.

To those advocating for the use of semantic triples (subject-predicate-object) to write copy, have you ever tried reading that type of monotonous, robotic text?

It's exactly the kind of writing that will make people leave a page.

Yeah, it's for illustration only

It's amusing to watch people spam everything they can so their brands are offered by LLMs for 1% of the overall traffic, only to be banned later when LLMs develop an anti-spam mechanism and send 10% of the overall traffic.

I don't post here often because I don't want AI to use your extensive comments under my posts for training purposes.

The best part about the last day before my vacation was that the site recovered from a significant drop in traffic.

My initial hypothesis was correct: the fix was the right thing to do.

Just as sites use SSR (server-side rendering) for Google bots, they should implement MDS (Markdown serving) for AI bots to save on bandwidth costs and optimize efficient content delivery for LLMs.

ROMO - relief of missing out

Does anyone experience it?

To detect cloaking, rent a Google Cloud server and scan the site from it.

Some cloaking systems whitelist the entire range of Google IP addresses, which allows you to view the version of the site intended for Google bots.

A ranking increase during an update is your signal to audit and find the underlying factor deficits *before* the algorithm's focus shifts back.

The goal isn't volatile gains; it's the stability to ride through updates without major swings.

but it doesn't cause Google a problem right this second...

just because we got away with it doesn't mean it's going to work forever.

That'll eventually catch up to you.

So when that something comes back into play, you're still missing it.

So in the future, you can expect to go down.

In short, the update just temporarily overlooked your site's deficit.

It hasn't been fixed.

Often sites "will be doing something that they know they shouldn't be doing...

Did your site's rank *increase* during a recent Google update?

It might not be the good news you think. 📈

If you went up, you were missing something, but the new algorithm is focused on other things.

But you still have that you were missing something.

1/

Focus on content tailored specifically to LLMs with no fluff, using chunking and vector techniques.

2/

Technically, to get the best possible results when targeting LLMs, you need to cloak and present different content to LLM user agents.

This means simple pages with no JavaScript or other features you usually include for pages visited by users and search engine bots.

1/

Learn to use acronyms correctly:

GEO - Google SEO
CEO - ChatGPT SEO
AEO - Anthropic SEO
YEO - YouTube SEO
PEO - Pinterest SEO
LEO - LinkedIn SEO
TEO - Technical SEO
JEO - JavaScript SEO
...

What did I forget to list?

Authority can also be built with internal links from pages that already have organic traffic.

It can also be due to thin content or conflicting info (like a title tag unrelated to the content) that makes Google think the content isn't "index worthy."

2/

The "Crawled current not indexed" status means Google thinks the pages don't provide enough value to be indexed.

"Crawled, but not indexed" is an authority issue caused by a lack of backlinks.

1/

GEO is just low-hanging fruit. That's why people are exploiting it to the fullest.

Agree 👍

Those who use AI in less obvious ways usually derive more value from it.

Generating content? Fail.
Auditing sites? Fail.
Conducting keyword research? Fail.

You've just read a funny and sarcastic SEO post consisting entirely of vague, clichéd, and fluffy stuff that we're all fed up with from social media personalities.
