🏰 Are We Living in the Age of Corporate Feudalism? NOTE: This is merely a thought experiment. It is a concept that I've been exploring for a while now, and I've learned over time that I'm not the only one.

Corporate America isn’t a meritocracy — it’s feudalism with better branding.

I lived it: 12-hour days, loyalty, burnout… and a forced resignation.

We can build a better system. Swipe my carousel + join the conversation. #WorkCulture #Labor

Rest in peace, Alan. You leave behind shoes too big for the rest of us to fill.

It's satire ... but it is sad that it's fully believable.

Of the certainties in life, there are death, taxes, (if you're in Central Texas) never drive on I-35, and the fact that every subscription you have will increase in price perpetually. At least Yoast is adding some functionality with their prices increase.

I've decided to be brutally honest with these recruiters who reach out to me with opportunities that have insultingly low rates. Perhaps if I was in my 20s, living in a shared low-cost apartment, and just starting out in SEO I would consider it. Calibrate your expectations, recruiters.

Welcome to the Nanny State of Texas, where legislators lose sleep when they hear that anyone is having a good time.

I guess the corporate lawyers are trying to earn their exorbitant pay today. I received ToS and legal policy updates from Reddit, Paramount, and PayPal. I guess this must be a sad, new holiday in America. Happy ToS Day, everyone!

How To Automate SEO Keyword Clustering By Search Intent With Python This practical guide uses SERP comparisons and Python to group keywords by intent, faster and more intuitively.

Keith Goode (@keithgoode.bsky.social) believes that understanding developer constraints and communication is key because if you can’t get SEO fixes implemented, even the best audit won’t matter.

Keith Goode (@keithgoode.bsky.social) explains that SEO product management is a specialised role that turns technical SEO insights into actionable changes by integrating them into a company’s product development process, bridging SEO and product teams.

I just informed a recruiter who reached out to me that their pay range for a Director of SEO role is insultingly low. Let's normalize doing that collectively. We don't have to accept the nonsense that's out there right now.

Google AI Mode search result with hyper-local responses.

Local SEOs won't be unscathed by this either. I ran a hyperlocal search and got hyperlocal results. #GoogleAIMode

Just received my invitation to AI Mode from Google. It appears to be a tab that precedes the "All" tab in desktop mode. It appears that in the responses, Gemini will only link to its sources, not other relevant sites.

Thanks, Ammon!

Keith Goode on the Evolution of Search and Why Technical SEO Still Matters by @TheGrok Keith Goode landed in Round Rock over 20 years ago. He didn’t have a job. Just an invitation to crash with a friend. He saw potential here. Something felt right. And now? He’s helped some of the bigge...

I had the honor of sitting down and talking with @thegrok.bsky.social on the Rock Solid Podcast about the shifting landscape of search technology for business owners. Give it a watch and feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts on the topic: www.bryaneisenberg.com/keith-goode-...

You have to add a data source multiple times from GSC to get all of the data, so I was trying to get data from Site Impressions that was only available on URL Impressions. Very basic.

Thanks. I sorted out what I was stuck on. It was a forehead-slapping realization after I focused on it. Looker is pretty straightforward, but there're some fundamentals you have to get right or you're lost.

What is your favorite Looker Studio training resource?

"caused villagers distress." Hahaha! Sounds pretty intense. I'm reminded of the "Aunt Irma Visits" episode of "The IT Crowd" in the news report on the Aunt Irma Riots: "In Tokyo, two games designers went on a rampage in a shopping center and frightened a dog." LMAO

When you kill a site out of spite, this is the result. Of course, the White House isn't (supposed to be) a profit center, but remember, there are ramifications to arbitrary content pruning. Are you willing to live with the outcome?

Before I forget, I wanted to wish a happy Lunar New Year to those who celebrate. I truly hope it is a year of balance, rebirth, and self-improvement for us all.

It hasn't always been the case. Training helps if you can get their time. Lately, I've gotten into the habit of showing them the impact of changes they've implemented.

Having an SEO-aware team is super valuable. A development lead recently pointed out that, while we require the alt text field to be populated when an image is added, our system hasn't been using it on certain pages. Train your teams in what to look for, and you'll increase your efficacy tenfold.
