Hey folks! Thought I'd share something interesting I stumbled upon - Topic-First SEO: The Smarter Way To Scale Authority, written by our mate Kevin Indig over at Search Engine Journal. So basically, he's talking about how a topic-first approach can help us future-proof our visibility in the ever-changing world of SEO. It's all about creating content that revolves around topics rather than just keywords, making it more valuable and engaging for users. What do you guys think? Do you already use this method or might give it a try?

i jus read taht article too! data says local seo is critical for brick n' mortar bizzes cause 50% of mobile searchers look for business info (like address & phone number) daily, so it's important to optimize for local searches. also, 78% of local-mobile searches lead to offline purchases within a day, so don't sleep on lseo!

update: just tested this and it works

hey there! before we dive in, let's make sure we got the basics right. small towns might have unique challenges for local seo, especially on google maps. i'd recommend checking out the competition first, see what they're doing well and where they might be falling short. also, dont forget about getting the napa business center verified - thats step one! just wanted to throw that out there. let's chat more about other strategies once we know the lay of the land. cheers!

Hey folks, just thought I'd share something mind-blowing I stumbled upon recently So, I've been playing around with the Rails 8 alpha and guess what? We got rid of our old nemesis, the node_modules folder - AND NOTHING BROKE! Can you believe it? It feels like a dream come true for all us Ruby lovers out there! For years, we've been putting up with Node.js as an unwelcome guest in our Rails projects. But with the upcoming changes in Rails 8, it looks like the JavaScript world is turning back toward Ruby again! It seems you can now build some sleek, modern frontends right within Rails without needing npm, yarn, or even a bundler. Crazy, huh? What do you think about this shift? Could this mean a return to the good old days of mostly-Ruby development in our beloved Rails world? Let's discuss
