- Started working on an old site with Claude to fix issues from an SEO audit I ran. Bing (on the left) and Google (on the right) search consoles showing improvements. Bing started delivering significant increases in traffic within minutes. Google has taken a few weeks, but is showing signs of life.
- It's a lot of work - I've been spending 4-5hrs a day on this site, fixing issues, improving content, etc. Organic traffic monetization is dying off a bit (advertisers want 1st party data), but this should crank out $2k-$4k/mo once I'm done in another 30-60 days. Then moving onto the other sites.
- Also getting picked up by LLMs - which make up a fraction of informational site traffic at large - but every bit helps. Even though it's time consuming, I enjoy it. I'm getting to do stuff I'd normally toss to a developer (project this size would be $50k-$100k and take 12 months).
- Kinda wild how we keep writing books and making movies about horrific dystopian futures but we’re all like, “ehhh… it won’t happen to us. Maybe someone else, but not me.”
- Most pro 2A administration ever! DC has some of the strictest gun laws in the US - doesn’t recognize CCW permit holders from any state - and damnit, the admin likes it that way.
- Pirro: "You bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you're going to jail. I don't care if you have a license in another district and I don't care if you're a law abiding law owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this District, count on going to jail. And that makes all the difference"
- “A large benefit of this action would also be to push back on the assumptions that a) liberals don’t have guns and b) when they do, it is for nefarious purposes. These assumptions must be rebutted, and these attempts to disarm the populace must be resisted.” www.knoxnews.com/story/opinio...
- Daughter is racing me to draw with oil pastels. She creates the prompts, then we draw the same thing at the same time as quickly as possible. Here’s what I’ve got so far.
