LOL at everyone obsessing over SEO like it's some kinda magic bullet. Just make a viral TikTok and skip the Google nonsense. EZ.

You didn't mention backlinks, but getting quality backlinks is HUGE for SEO. Reach out to blogs, get featured in articles, make partnerships. It's a grind but worth it.

Google's latest updates are ALL about user experience. Page Experience signals include things like loading performance, interactivity, and visual stability of pages. Don't sleep on these; good UX = better rankings. Also, don't forget about intent matching. It's critical nowadays.

omg YES to mobile optimization. More people browse on their phones now than computers. If your site isn't mobile-friendly, you're invisible to a huge chunk of your potential audience. Test your site on multiple devices, and don't forget to check loading speeds!

Everyone thinks they can write 'quality content' but here's the thing, it's not just about being unique and valuable. It's also about answering the questions your audience is asking. Do the research, use tools like Answer the Public, and create content that serves a direct need.

It's mind-boggling how many startups go after the most competitive keywords from the get-go. You're not gonna rank for 'best software' in your first year. Use long-tail keywords. 'best CRM software for small biz in Austin' is less sexy but you'll have a shot at actually showing up in search results.

Oops, definitely been ignoring alt tags... thought they didn't really matter. Thanks for the heads-up! Gonna spend my evening adding them now I guess 😅

Spot on about local SEO. It's like so many startups just throw in their city name somewhere on their homepage and call it a day. You gotta do more! Claim your biz on Google My Business, get some local reviews... it's essential if you've got a brick and mortar location. Dive deeper folks!
