I feel stagnant in my weight gain /: what do y'all think?

This is from the 19th , so three days ago.

Do I have body dysm/orphia or something? Because I genuinely feel like I'm either losing or staying the same weight and it's really making me pretty depressed. But I have to know the truth, please don't lie.

My appetite has been all over the place due to sickness ( from something unrelated. ) so I hope it's just my head playing games on me and I didn't lose effortlessly without lifting a finger to do so. genuinely my worst nightmare.

It’s midday and you’ve been driving down an isolated road in fuck-knows-where with the hopes you’ll be able to find a gas station in at least 15 minutes. You’ve been driving down this straight road for what felt like ages now, your only surroundings being orange-colored sand and leafless plants. 

Never in your life has driving made you more anxious, it was like you were in charge of safely disarming a bomb. You gripped the wheel and glanced at the gas gauge occasionally, each look wearing your hope thinner. You were supposed to fill your tank before leaving, but it wasn’t in your plans to get lost in the first place. You knew your incompetence would catch up to you eventually, but you didn’t think it’d be now. 

Your teeth grit against each other as you raced against time. You desperately repeated affirmations, hoping they would help you along the way. Maybe if you ignored the fact you could be stranded, you’ll get to your destination faster. 

My gas is NOT running out…

I will NOT have a mental breakdown…

I AM responsible…

Not even a good moment later, the engine starts sputtering as if you called it upon yourself. You desperately tapped at the fuel gauge, resulting in the amount dropping drastically. To your surprise, it’s been showing the wrong amount the entire time. You drove towards the side of the road so you could let the tank run out while you spit out a colorful array of obscenities. There was no doubt in your mind that this might be the worst day of your life.

You slammed at the dashboard of your piece of shit, beat up, 2012 Toyota Tacoma with unprecedented rage, dropping your head onto the steering wheel in defeat. The depleting noises the engine made as it slowly died only added to how you were feeling. Your face heated up and your eyes brimmed with tears; not because you were sad, but because you were so damn pissed.

“Fuck my life...” You sobbed out, forehead pressing harder into the wheel. 

The sudden blaring sound that came from the car’s diaphragm jolted you up and caused you to yelp out. Everything’s silent for a while— you included— like a city before a tsunami attacks or the quiet before a dam bursts. In proper fashion, you unleashed a waterfall of tears; slowly, but surely, turning into a wallowing mess. Tears, snot, and saliva everywhere all because you made an irresponsible decision and drove a terrible car to make irresponsible decisions in.

Out of frustration, you honked some more, beating at the wheel’s center like there’s a solution inside of it. Certainly, this wasn’t the best way to handle your situation, but it was the only thing you had the energy to do. Amidst all the beeping and profanities, you failed to notice a car pulling up beside you. They honked their horn in unison with yours and the harmony caused you to frantically look around for the source.

You turned to your left and your gaze was met with a green set of eyes. It only took a second longer for you to realize who or what was looking at you. A woman with short auburn hair and a freckled face was shooting you a concerned glare.  

All that was running through your head now was that a woman was looking at you and the manic episode you were having would undoubtedly scare off any future prospects. As your stomach turned into knots of shame, you muttered a low swear and quickly wiped away the remaining tears on your face. 

You took a deep breath and calmly rolled down your window, which took an agonizingly slow amount of time. You occasionally spared the woman a few awkward glances with an equally awkward grin. Your humiliation built up along with the comically loud sound coming from the rolling window. After what felt like an eternity later, the window finally rolled down and you looked up to meet the woman’s gaze again, further examining her features.

Right there and then, you swore your heart fell out of your ass. You never thought you’d find yourself saying something so cliche, but the lady was a sight for your teary sore eyes. She was wearing a simple gray tank top, which showcased her spectacularly shaped arms and tattooed forearm.

The sight of her alone made you question your sanity. Maybe you were imagining her to make you feel better? You wouldn’t be surprised if you did.

 As you looked up at her even more attractive face, you noticed her scarred brow was perked up, which could only mean she noticed you staring, and based on the subtle curl at the corner of her lips; she found it amusing too.

 Your face instantly warmed up. You needed to defend your ogling quickly, but before you could manage out a single word, the beauty beat you to it.

“Are you okay?” The woman questioned, the slight lilt at the end of it only deepened your embarrassment. It physically pained you to imagine how much of your breakdown she saw.

“I’m fine, I was just...” You couldn’t finish your sentence, so you let out a sheepish laugh to fill in the space. 

“You sure? It looks like you’re having some trouble.” The woman gestures her head at your car as she speaks, not breaking a second of eye contact. 

You chewed on your lip, nervously shifting your stare before admitting, “Uh, yeah. I ran out of gas...”

“Looks like it slightly inconvenienced you.” 

A subconscious scoff fell from your mouth as you lazily gestured around you. “Slightly?”

“Just a guess. I could hear the honking a mile away.”

“Yeah, well, that’s the only thing that works on this junk.”

The woman let out an amused hum, casually glancing at the road behind her before turning to you again. “Did you already call for help?”

“Nope...” You responded, your eyes still wandering off.

 The woman idly wet her lips in thought before driving up the road. For a moment, you thought she rudely left you stranded on the side of the road, but after carefully looking, you noticed she was driving a tow truck. 

Your previous thought that she might be a figment of your imagination immediately came back, because what the hell? A real-life angel came to save you at your lowest. She parked in front of your car and stepped out of the vehicle and you peered out the window of yours, shamelessly following her movements in awe.

She was slim, lean, and held an average height. The jeans she was wearing fit her so nicely, you actually had to pinch yourself to stop looking. 

You reached for your rearview mirror and pointed it towards yourself, making sure most of your makeup was intact. Much to your dismay, your eyeliner was smudged, and your lip gloss was wiped away. So, not only did she watch you wail like a baby, you looked like one too. You glimpsed back at the woman, making sure she wouldn’t catch you in the act of dolling up for her. 

You stepped out of the car after quickly fixing your makeup, a bit shy to face the woman now. You weren’t particularly dressed like you were ready to do any flirting today, sporting a white graphic crop tee and distressed blue jean shorts. Nonetheless, you fidgeted with your clothes before approaching her. 

She double glanced at you as she moved stuff off the truck’s ramp, eventually blurting out, “I don’t have any gas in my truck, and uh–“ She abruptly stopped her action to look at you as she spoke, “– there’s no gas station out here for a while, but I have a garage not too far away.” 

“You’ll help me? I mean, is it okay? I don’t wanna shit on your plans.” You asked, but mostly out of decency. You needed the help after all. Plus, your only other option was to wait for another mechanic instead of just going with this extremely hot one.

She grinned and nodded a few times reassuringly. You found that every little motion she did melted you a bit. Just the tease of a smile from her could turn you into pudding. “It’s no problem, I was headed there anyway. It’s not every day I get to rescue a damsel in distress.” 

You bit down a bashful grin as you muttered a thanks and she told you to wait in the passenger seat. When you walked off, you swore you could feel her eyes burning into you. You couldn’t tell if it was a phantom feeling or if she was actually staring you down, but every inch of you hoped for the latter.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

You took a look around your surroundings. The car smelled like diesel and marijuana, but you weren’t expecting much from a tow truck. There was a cute 3D dinosaur pendent hanging off the rear-view mirror and the car had small handmade stickers across the dashboard. 

Before you could look any further, the woman stepped into the driver’s seat and started the car. She just hooked your car up to hers, so she had to take a look behind to make sure it was in place, setting her tattooed arm on your headrest as she did so. Your heart skipped at the closeness and all you could do was stare at her like a dork.

It was slightly perverse how much you enjoyed staring at her face. You’ve seen beauty before, but she was a discovery. Another plus was that she smelt really good. She didn’t wear a sweet or flowery perfume. She wore something earthier, and it blended in perfectly with that slight hint of gasoline. The best way to describe it is that she smelt like a pinewood air freshener in a new car but fucking hot. 

The woman caught you off guard with a glance, her own face a bit shocked to find you looking at her. You quickly averted your gaze and eyed the road up instead, pursing your lips together as if nothing happened, attempting to ignore the shame away.

You were obviously embarrassed, and that usual mortified feeling washed over your body. She didn’t laugh or anything, but as she retrieved her arm and put her hand on the wheel, you nervously glimpsed at her face and saw a small, smug smile. 

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

The drive was painfully quiet. All you could hear was muffled crunchy sounds of the road and the humming of the truck’s engine. You sat there, fiddling with your shorts as you slowly zoned out.

“Where are you headed?” The woman blurted out, causing you to abruptly turn her way. She was still focused on the road ahead, so you took the time to peer at her side profile, in which you deemed needed to be framed and hung up in an art gallery.

“I’m going to see my family upstate for the holidays.”

“How long have you been driving then?”

“About... three hours.”

“Three hours and you didn’t think to stop for gas?” She huffed out a melodic laugh and peeked at you. You’d let her tease you as much as she wanted as long as you got to hear that laugh again. 

“I thought I had enough! My stupid tank was reading wrong.” You responded, puffing your cheeks out at the thought.

“I’ll fix that too then.”

“That’d be appreciated.”

“Why’re you driving that old thing anyways?”

You shrugged as you spoke out, “Well, I’m a college student and it’s better than nothing.”

“Really? What’s your major?” She looked at you for a moment with genuine curiosity. It didn’t feel like she was just looking for small talk.

Her interest was comforting, but you were slightly wary to say it. Your major didn’t necessarily scream out sexy like psychology or law would. You hesitated before slowly speaking out. “… Astrophysics.” 

You knew the chances of her having any idea what your nerdy major was about was incredibly low. You bit your lip as you waited for the awkward ‘oh’ or ‘cool’ that usually comes after. 

“Astrophysics? That’s actually fuckin’ sick.”

Your brows rose in shock, never expecting anyone to respond that way. “Yeah, I like space stuff... I guess...”

You rubbed your forehead at your dull awkwardness and the woman let out another satisfying laugh at your lack of explanation. “That’s one reason to get into it. I like space stuff too. I think constellations are pretty neat.”

You smiled to yourself at her sincerity, and consequently, the thought of stars perked you up in an instance. “Me too! I had the perfect view of Aquila from my backyard growing up.”

“I’m jealous. I struggle connecting them myself, so I just go to that one space museum in the city to look at ‘em. But, fuck, if I could see– I know this is basic, but– if I could see Ursa Major with my own eyes?”

“You haven’t? The Big Dipper is one of the easiest to find.”

She chuckled before she spoke. “You’ll need to help me find it then.”

Help her find it? Lay underneath the stars and connect them with her? It was a very nice thought in your head, but you’re 100% sure she said it without thinking. You expected the previous silence to continue after that until she broke it again.

She was clearly embarrassed by herself, twisting her lips before finally saying something. “My name’s Ellie, by the way.” 

You sheepishly responded with your name and Ellie subtly smiled as she continued to drive down the road. 

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

You guys pulled up to the driveway of the mechanic garage. There was a large decal with ‘MILLER AND CO’ over a wrench painted on the metal doors. The area was just as deserted as the road you guys drove on, minus the few farms around now. 

“Is this yours?” You asked.

“Nah, it’s my dad’s. I try to enjoy it like it’s mine though.”

“Has this always been what you’ve wanted to do?” You wondered out loud, only to feel regretful after. You didn’t know her, and you were already asking personal questions. The slim chance she’s suddenly put off by you made you wanna curl into a ball and cry.

“I mean, I always wanted to be an astronaut growing up, but that was never in the cards for me. Things changed when my dad adopted me, I was practically glued to him. I did everything he did.” Ellie freely answered and it dropped your worries instantly. You found her openness incredibly attractive. At that moment, you could feel yourself yearning to learn more about her. “I still love everything about space though, don’t get me wrong.”

“And dinosaur stuff too?” You cheekily queried as you pointed at the rearview chain.

Ellie glanced at the cutesy decor and chuckled. “And dinosaur stuff too.” 

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

After getting the cars into the garage, Ellie steps out of the car and walks over to your side. You watched curiously as she strolled to your door and popped it open for you. 

You stared and she stared back expectantly, gesturing for you to hop out. You smiled slightly at that, and Ellie smiled back. God, you could watch her smile for days on end.

“You can sit anywhere, it shouldn’t take too long.” Ellie said as you stepped out, closing the door behind you. 

You turned to face her before continuing the conversation. “Thanks again. Also, err... how much is it gonna run me?” Your teeth clenched a little as you asked. It wasn’t the first thing that you wanted to say, but you weren’t made out of money. I mean, look at what you were driving.

Ellie snorted at your expression and shook her head. “Don’t worry about it.” 

In response, you gave a doubtful look. There was no way she was this kind and wanted nothing in return. 

Leaning against the truck door, Ellie playfully rolled her eyes. “I’m serious. This is my good deed for the month.”

“Nothing? Nothing at all?” You quizzed, your brow perking curiously.

“Nothing at all. But if you insist…” She went on, looking off as if she was really changing her mind.

“No! No... Thank you.” You blurted.

You cursed yourself at how vulnerably broke you were being, and Ellie smiled wider than she had before. Once you caught onto that smile, your eyes latched on. It was only natural to stare at her teeth, her lips, wondering how they’d feel on yours; if she’d smile between her kisses. 

You quickly snapped out of it before you spiraled any further, but clearly not fast enough. 

“You have a staring problem, y’know?” Ellie stated, slightly tilting her head as she let her eyes travel over your body. A stare for a stare if you would. 

“I wouldn’t say it’s a staring problem.”

“If it’s not staring, what is it?” She asked with her eyes locked onto yours.

“Admiring?”

Ellie was slightly surprised at your sudden boldness, her smile faltered for a millisecond before quickly returning. 

“Hm, I could say the same.”

She basically confirmed she was also checking you out. Meaning, you had a chance. You looked away as you blushed fiercely, and in the corner of your eye you could see Ellie doing the same.

You don’t know when it started, but the vibe between you two became pleasantly tense. Any previous worries and doubts that Ellie might not like you vanished. You clearly had a chance with her, and you planned to see how far your luck would go. She turned away to clear her throat and pushed off the truck. You decided to move away yourself, finding a nice chair to settle yourself on. 

The spot you sat at put Ellie in your direct line of sight. You should probably call your family and tell them you’d be running late, but you were comfortable where you were. Ellie was incredibly captivating; you wouldn’t mind trailing her with your eyes as she did simple tasks like filling up gas for the rest of your life. She was like a really good fucking movie.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Thirty minutes into your imaginary film, you thought the picture quality was getting better, but you discerned it was just Ellie getting closer. 

She rubbed her oiled hands off her shirt as she approached you. “Can you help me with something? I j–“

You sprang up to your feet before she could finish speaking. You didn’t need to hear what she had to say next. It wouldn’t hurt for her to see how interested you were.

Ellie went wide-eyed at your eagerness, shaking her head lightly. 

“You could’ve let me finish talking first.” She said with a subtle, taunting smile.

“I didn’t need to. I’m already getting serviced for free, so I’ll gladly do it.”

“Getting serviced, huh?”

You smiled coyly at Ellie as you recognized the implications of her childish repetition before correcting yourself. “I’m already getting helped.”

Ellie retained her smile as she turned back to the car, gesturing for you to follow her with one of her stained hands. You followed her over to the driver’s side of your truck where she knelt down and shifted an arrangement of tools on the cement floor. 

“I need to fix the wiring underneath your car to fix the fuel gauge. If you could hand the tools to me when I ask for ‘em, that’d be great. Can you do that for me?” Ellie questioned in a honeyed voice. She looked up at you, waiting for your answer; a cruel grin barely tugging at the corner of her lips. 

You only nodded as her stare left you too flustered to speak. You knew the intentions from her tone of voice alone and, boy, did it work. She was teasing you again, but even more obvious than the last. 

She fixed a set of tools on a white cloth, setting the toolbox open and nearby as well. You weren’t stupid, you can tell what almost all the tools were. Driving a car you do; it was only a matter of time before you had to do temporary repairs yourself. However, you realized the opportunity you had laid out in front of you, and you were most definitely gonna take it.

Ellie spoke as she retrieved a tool from the box, glancing at you to make sure you were following. Of course, you made sure to pay attention fully. 

Her gorgeous green eyes laid upon your dreamy lash-filled gaze up and you could read the subtle fluster off her face. “This is a ratchet. I.. I’m sure you know that already though.” Whatever you were doing was working and Ellie’s little stammer was evidence.

You looked at the tool and pushed out your full, bottom lip, slightly shaking your head. “Nope. I do now though. What’s next?” You immediately resumed your gaze at Ellie before you could even finish speaking. 

She grinned and it was clear she didn’t believe you, but the look in her eyes had a mischievous glint in them; so you knew it was definitely safe to continue. 

“Alright, princess. This? —“ She paused to pick up another tool mid-sentence, and the break gave you just enough time to process the panty-soaking pet name. “— Is a screwdriver. The pointy end screws things in.” 

You didn’t bother to look at the tool this time, making sure every inch of your face was telling her you wanted her to screw you in. 

“Uh-huh.” You nod with your eyes glued on Ellie’s.

Ellie laughed lightly with a new tone to it. You couldn’t describe it if asked, but you could describe how it made you feel. It took everything for you not to clench your legs together to relieve your now growing pressure.  

“Are you keepin’ up with me?” She said, teasingly. 

You grazed your teeth along your bottom lip, and you hummed in response. Ellie licked hers like an effect from your cause before she continued to school you on the tools she needed. 

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

You two engaged in the flirty lesson until it eventually ended, and she left to fetch a garage creeper from a tool station nearby. 

Ellie set it at the side of the truck, where the driver would be, and sat down and laid back on it. You were sitting on the floor by the tools now, so you could easily watch her work. She rolled backwards and underneath the car, adjusting herself on the trolley by sending her hips forward so sexily you wondered if she did it on purpose. In that motion her top rode up a bit and since you were so close, you could ogle up her midriff freely. 

“Screwdriver. Enjoying the view?” Ellie suddenly quizzed.

Without a second thought, you handed her the screwdriver only taking a moment longer to register what she said after.

By now, you felt less embarrassed by Ellie catching you staring since she obviously enjoyed it. “The view? The view is nice.” 

“Just nice?”

“The view is really nice. Amazing, even. It’s a nice area, I might even move here.”

Ellie huffed out the faintest chuckle. “Are we talking about the same thing?”

“We are, don’t worry.”

“Feel free to admire all you want then.” You could tell she was smiling as she said that despite barely being able to see her face.

The light banter you guys shared gave you twinkles all over your body. You wondered where this all might lead to. Perhaps nothing at all, or, as you hoped for, her number at least.

Ellie tosses the screwdriver to your side with a low hum before holding her hand out. “Pass me the torque, please?”

You reached into the toolbox, staring dumbly at the items. It seems you might’ve really needed the walk through after all. Along that tutorial you failed to learn what the hell a torque could be. “Let me try to find it...”

You looked through some more, trying to see what method could help you single out this torque. Meanwhile, Ellie rolled from underneath the car and sat on the creeper, rolling forward and towards you. You were so caught up in Ellie’s request, you failed to notice her presence.

 When you finally chose a tool, Ellie’s hand happened to land onto yours. You and Ellie shot each other surprised glances and Ellie eased the tension with a subtle smile. She pulled her hand away, but not fully nor quickly. Not quickly at all. 

In fact, she lingered like she wanted you to remember how her fingertips felt; slowly sliding her digits up the back of your hand. Just like that, everything felt like it was in slowmo. Everything but your heart, which was beating faster by the second. You knew you had to pull yourself together quickly. This moment could potentially make or break something.

“I found it.” You spoke out so lightly it could be mistaken for a whisper, peering your eyes into Ellie’s green pair. You didn’t have any expectations for what would happen next, but you were practically shaking from anticipation.

“Took you long enough. Do we need to go over it again?” Ellie responded just as low as you spoke. The husk and tease around her words made you clench around nothing, embarrassingly so. 

You didn’t let that stop you, however, letting yourself indulge in her teasing for your own guilty pleasure. “Maybe… What’s this again? A hammer?”

Ellie grinned at your faux naïveté, her head cocking to the side. “I know you’re smarter than that.”

“I just need a quick reminder.” You grinned back as you spoke.

“That’s not what you really want though, is it?” Ellie’s smile faded into a less prominent, yet more seductive one. 

You could swear up and down her eyes flickered down to your lips a couple times, so you naturally started leaning towards her. 

What you failed to realize was that Ellie had already started to lean towards you. She dropped off the creeper, decreasing the distance between you two dramatically. She leaned herself against her hands and spread her legs, leaving you kneeled between them. There were no coherent thoughts in your mind, but you finally had an expectation and that was Ellie’s lips on yours. 

Your lips collided and your eyes fluttered shut. You instantly dropped the torque back in the box and stiffened a bit, not sure if this was really happening or not. However, whether it was real or not, you wanted to do a good job. 

The kiss started off slow, testing the waters. Ellie’s smooth, gentle lips made you feel tipsy along with that smell you loved blocking your senses. You were completely intoxicated.

Ellie slid her palm on your hip and gradually roamed the small of your back. The sudden touch shot electricity through your body. She was balancing herself on one hand now, but she attentively stayed on your lips. You couldn’t stop the greed for more rushing through your core even if you wanted to. You placed your hand on the nape of her neck, desperately bringing her in to deepen the kiss. 

You could feel the grin etched into her lips and it only drove you further. She obliged to your wishes and parted your lips against hers with minimal effort, easily intruding the tip of her tongue between. Your tongues slid and ran across each other sensually, and the messiness of it all had you sopping where you knelt. Too lost in the moment, you accidentally let a low moan escape. If Ellie couldn’t tell how needy you were, she could tell now. 

She slowly broke away from your lips, and it left you both panting heavily. Your face, confused, and hers, studying. Did you turn her off? Did you do too much when she was probably expecting something less? You tried to avoid her eyes, too disappointed with yourself to look.

Ellie didn’t let the eye-contact break, following your eyes with a worried expression. “Hey, hey... It’s alright. You’re not in trouble.” Ellie said, letting out a cruel laugh at the end.

You frowned at the teasing this time and your embarrassment was even more evident.

Ellie took your expression in consideration as she leaned in to peck the corner of your lips. The gesture eased your worries, but you were unsure of how this would turn out. She gave you a brief smile before finally saying, “Are you sure you wanna do this?”

You nodded your head slowly and Ellie frowned at it. “I need words.” She said, more sternly than you’d expect. 

She was quick to get a few words out of you. “I… I want this.”

“That’s all I needed to hear.” She replied, leaning in to connect lips with yours again. You didn’t realize how much you missed that contact until you felt chills run through your body. 

You missed her lips on yours despite only kissing for so long. The hand Ellie had placed on your back drifted lower and grasped your ass, earning a moan from you, which Ellie took great pleasure in hearing and feeling. 

By now, your knees were starting to hurt, and it took a lot of restraints not to topple over Ellie. However, you refused to move your lips from hers, you just got them back. 

Unfortunately, Ellie must’ve noticed your stubborn shuffling since she pulled away despite your muffled protests. 

“Let’s move somewhere more comfortable.”

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ellie cracked open the door for you to a small lounge space and placed a quick apologetic kiss on your lips before walking off. She had noticed her handprint smudged on your shorts on the way to the lounge and it reminded her that she had to wash the car grime off before doing anything more with you. At this point you were so pent up you probably wouldn’t mind. You decided not to dwell on what risks you’re willing to take to fuck Ellie and sat yourself on a brown couch that felt a lot comfier than it looked. The vibe of the room was similar to Ellie’s car minus the smell of weed. Speaking of smells, it smelled just like her. 

Thoughts of Ellie panting and briefly taking your lips between her teeth flashed through your mind. The vividness, considering it just happened, made the heat between your legs increase. You instinctively pressed your thighs together and fought the urge to take care of yourself right there and then. 

Thankfully, Ellie strolled into the lounge and shut the door behind her, and it finished with a lock click. Your eyes met as she strolled towards you, plopping on the couch next to you.

Ellie opened her mouth to say something, but you didn’t want to hear it. Not right now. You cupped her face and pressed your lips into hers and you shut her up instantly. She leaned over you, pressing you back into the couch. Amidst the smacking and passion of your mouths against each other’s, Ellie’s hand drifted up your waist; thumbing along your skin. Everything was so hot and cloudy now; you couldn’t think about anything other than how good you feel. 

At some point, Ellie’s leg was kneeled, and her thigh was wedged between your legs. You only became aware of the new positioning after accidentally pressing yourself against her. You were laid down on the couch, completely dazed with Ellie hovering over you. She noticed you coming back to reality and grinned smugly as she moved her hand underneath your top and groped at your breast. You arched into her touch, keening, and Ellie rewarded the sound by rubbing her thigh against your clothed clit. 

You gasped sharply and the brief friction had you bucking for more. Your barely audible pleas must’ve triggered something in Ellie as she bent down to kiss you, taking your lips between her teeth. The feeling is even better than you remembered.

The intensity of the kiss is wet, hot, and you can’t remember when you last took a breath. You placed your arms over Ellie’s shoulders and lightly ran your fingertips along her back, rolling your hips into Ellie’s thigh. You were so close, so close until.. you suddenly lost contact. Ellie moved her right hand to your hip, gently pinning you down so you couldn’t move as she placed her thigh out of reach. 

She has pulled away from you too often and you weren’t going to back down quietly this time. You broke off from her kiss-swollen lips, rather reluctantly, and begged. “Ellie! Please… just—” 

Ellie shushed you and whispered directly into your ear, her breath hitting your cheek and sending shivers down your spine. “I’m gonna fuck you myself. Be patient.” 

You weren’t gonna argue. You wanted that. You wanted her. Ellie moved her hand from your hips and went to loosen the button of your shorts. She moved her legs so that yours were fully between hers. You unwrapped your arms from her shoulders and helped her tug your shorts down urgently, lifting your hips to speed the process. 

Ellie positioned herself so she could tuck your knees in. She parted your legs and leaned back, taking a moment to appreciate how wet you were for her; your slick heat coating your underwear, glistening, all for her to see. It would’ve embarrassed you in any other instance, but you were so filled with lust, none of it mattered. 

She pressed her thumb against your clit, through your undoubtedly soaked panties and peered down at your face: brows furrowed and brimming with want. Ellie wasn’t gonna make you wait any longer. She moved the fabric out of the way and finally rubbed your bare clit with the pad of her thumb. You panted heavily, moving into her touch. 

Ellie leaned towards you, turning her wrist clockwise and dipping her fingers between your folds, rubbing your labia between her middle and ring digits. You groaned out and quickly pulled up your top and tugged your bra underneath your tits so you could grasp at the sensitive area. 

Your wetness coated Ellie’s fingers perfectly and it was only a matter of time before she fucked you with them senselessly. She coaxed your clit between her fingers, and although you were too wet for much friction, the pressure was just enough to get you there. 

You fondled and squeezed at your chest, pinching at your nipples as your eyes clenched shut; concentrating on that release you needed so badly. Ellie was practically salivating at the sight, still hunched over you and getting off from the look of you alone. 

Your much anticipated orgasm rolled through you, crashing in like a wave. You moaned loudly, arching your back and rolling your hips forward.

 Ellie slowed down and helped you ride out your orgasm before suddenly slipping both fingers into your entrance. The sudden intrusion made you whine, and Ellie dipped down and pressed a kiss on your cheek. Your eyes were brimming with tears, but you needed her to move. You needed her to fuck you badly. 

You squirmed under Ellie and she placed her free hand on the cheek she kissed, thumbing along it as she cooed at you teasingly. “Shhh.. You’re gonna ruin the makeup you fixed just for me.”

Ellie’s thumb creeped towards your swollen and gloss-less bottom lip, the aftermath of rough, sloppy kissing. You mouthed out a ‘whoops’ and faked a pout. 

Ellie laughed as she gazed down at you. The sight of her flushed red, freckled cheeks smiling down at you only made you want her more. Ellie felt your need squeeze against her fingers, and she made sure that you knew she knew by glancing down at her fingers filling your cunt. She bit her bottom lip and decided to give you what you wanted, slowly pumping her fingers in you. 

You keened colorfully, raising your tucked knees and wrapping your legs around Ellie’s waist. You needed her deep. She picked up her pace and curled her fingers, hitting that soft wall. She was doing everything right, there was no doubt in your mind she was an angel, a sexually experienced one at that. You pulled her down, meeting her halfway so you crash your lips into hers. 

Ellie moaned over your lips and, god, you were so close. She slid a third finger in you, pumping and curling her fingers; knuckles deep. You were so close you were seeing stars, it made you think back on the little conversation you two had in the car and you wondered if this is what she meant. Then just like that they fucking connected. 

You cried out as you came, tightening your legs around Ellie’s waist as you gushed over her fingers. She kept her fingers in you until you finished. Once Ellie pulled out, you groaned from the loss and she muttered out an apology.

You gave her one lingering kiss before plopping back down. You were utterly exhausted and aching. Aching... pleasantly, but that wasn’t the point. Your mind slowly started recollecting everything that happened. You were just fucked by a hot stranger you met in a town you still don’t know the name of.  You’re not sure you would’ve remembered after this anyways. 

“Usually I would help clean up, but...” Ellie gestured around her. You almost forgot you guys were at the back of a mechanic’s garage. 

You snickered and nodded understandingly. “Right. I know.”

You two stared at each other awkwardly despite what occurred not even five minutes ago. Ellie ruffled with her hair before speaking out, “So… Can I take you out sometime? When your trip is over?”

You pushed up so you were at eye-level with her. “I... I think we’re past that, but yes. Yes, you can.” You leaned in for a kiss and she returned it with a grin.

Best Underrated Anime Group A Round 4: Do It Yourself!! vs RIN-NE

#A2: Do It Yourself!!

Girls do DIY together, but after a new industrial revolution

#A3: RIN-NE (Kyoukai no Rinne)

Girl who sees ghosts meets poor shinigami. Comedy ensues.

Details and poll under the cut!

#A2: Do it Yourself!!

Summary:

This series takes place after the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Serufu and her childhood friend Miku/“Purin” both applied to an elite school, where advanced technologies are incorporated into the curriculum. The tech-savvy Purin is accepted into the school, but accident-prone Serufu is rejected and enters a traditional school instead, driving a wedge into their friendship.

On her way to class one day, Serufu encounters Rei, who has a passion for old-fashioned crafts and is the head of the school’s Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Club—which is in danger of closing due to a lack of members. Realizing that this may be her chance to repair her relationship with Purin, Serufu joins the club in hopes of creating projects that could bring them together once more.

Propaganda:

It’s just a really feel-good series with some great characters. I adore all of them and their dynamics with each other, especially the main dynamic between Serufu and Purin as it develops. I’m a really big fan of the show’s angle on stuff such as do-it-yourself crafts following another industrial revolution, just because it does frequently bring up the question of “What’s the point of DIY if in a year or two/maybe even now a robot could recreate the exact same result?” through characters like Purin (who is the major character with the lowest opinion on these kinds of crafts at the start, since she’s in the technologically advanced school and has beliefs more in line with the efficacy of technology rather than the joy of human creation), with the short answer largely being because it’s just fun!

I first watched this show before I saw a lot of AI stuff intruding upon art and rewatching it after sure was fun, because I love its ideas on the worth of doing stuff that machinery could do much faster. It’s not super complex or emotional, but that largely goes in its favor, because it really doesn’t need to be those. It’s just a fun little anime about a bunch of girls having fun together through one shared hobby that some of them had from the start and some of them adopted. I also love the opening, and the ending is a massive comfort song for me. The series can also be very funny at points, and is usually super heartwarming.

Trigger Warnings: None.

#A3: RIN-NE (Kyoukai no Rinne)

Summary:

Rinne Rokudou has bigger problems than going to school—namely, helping spirits pass over to the next life. Because of this responsibility, he often finds himself short on money and struggles to buy his necessities: food, clothes, and exorcism tools.

Sakura Mamiya has been able to see ghosts since she was little. She hoped she would outgrow it, but even after starting high school, nothing has changed. To make matters worse, the first time her ever-absent classmate, Rinne, shows up for school, only Sakura can see him. She assumes, as anyone would, that he is a ghost. However, to Sakura's surprise, Rinne proceeds to attend school like normal the next day.

Propaganda:

This is one of Rumiko Takahashi’s underrated works (mostly getting overshadowed by Inuyasha due to her releasing this series after the fact), and I don’t see a lot of people talk about it often. While it’s not my favorite of her works, it’s one that I still like because of the way she portrays the characters. Plus, it still has that classic Rumic comedy and feel to it and I really love the animation with her artstyle. Anyways, if you like supernatural comedies (with a hint of romance) then vote for Rin-ne!

Trigger Warnings: None.

When reblogging and adding your own propaganda, please tag me @best-underrated-anime so that I’ll be sure to see it.

If you want to criticize one of the shows above to give the one you’re rooting for an advantage, then do so constructively. I do not tolerate groundless hate or slander on this blog. If I catch you doing such a thing in the notes, be it in the tags or reblogs, I will block you.

Know one of the shows above and not satisfied with how it’s presented in this tournament? Just fill up this form with your revisions, and I’ll consider adapting those changes.

New: Starting round 5, screenshots will be included in the poll post. You can submit screenshots through the form linked above, or through here, via ask or dm.

Guidelines in submitting screenshots:

No NSFW or spoilery images.

Pick some good images please. Don’t send any blurry or pixelated ones.

[random-thought-depository]

@hedoughnism, I was going to respond to your tags here by making a post about how I think bonobo-like human culture might have something going on that's a bit like that but specifically gynephilic and focused more on the Jennifer Atemile kind of fatness than the obesity kind of fatness, but when I tried to type it up I ended up wandering into a long tangent about how bonobo-like human reproductive patterns are a lot more BOFFFish than ours because that's important context for what I wanted to say, so I'll just type up that tangent separately here (hope the rest of y'all enjoy this worldbuilding post too!).

Bonobo-like human self-domestication happened in a way that shifted social advantage to older women. Bonobo-like humans got a functional equivalent of modern birth control in the Stone Age. Put a shift of social power to older women and the invention of pretty reliable birth control together, and a common result was the formation of female reproductive hierarchies where the fertility of younger women was behaviorally suppressed and the time and energy of younger women was diverted toward caring for the children of older women. This means bonobo-like humans got a lot more selection pressure for late menopause and slow female fertility decline than we did.

The last common ancestor of bonobo-like humans and Homo sapiens might have still had a chimp-like life cycle of dying of old age at around 50 and hitting menopause at around the same time. The ancestors of bonobo-like humans may still have had a roughly chimp-like life cycle when they got their watershed divergence of getting a rough functional equivalent of modern birth control way before we did. Homo sapiens kept an approximately chimp-like age of menopause but added another thirty years or so of lifespan. Bonobo-like humans added another thirty years or so of lifespan like we did, but got much stronger selection for proportionately later age of menopause and slower female fertility decline. In a sense this means bonobo-like humans evolved more conservatively than us, keeping something closer to the ancestral ape pattern of menopause only happening in very old age.

Normal age of menopause for modern bonobo-like human women is in their late sixties. Instead of a grandmother hypothesis, they had an old mom hypothesis that what was selected for was staying alive and healthy-ish for 10-20 years after a woman's oldest plausible age of reproduction to give her time to raise her last child to something approximating self-sufficiency (bonobo-like human children basically mature faster than Homo sapiens children, though they reach puberty later chronologically and much later relative to the rest of their development, and bonobo-like humans tend to form big cooperative child-care groups and do lots of alloparenting; the risk of orphaning associated with old mothers may have been a selection pressure for that).

As I said, bonobo-like humans tend to form age-mediated female reproductive hierarchies where the fertility of younger women is behaviorally suppressed and younger women assist in caring for the children of older women. So almost a symmetrical inverse of the grandmother hypothesis, but with behavioral fertility suppression instead of biological fertility suppression. Instead of our pattern of post-reproductive grandmothers helping care for the children of younger women, they have a pattern where 15-40 year old oldest daughters, nieces, younger female housemates, etc. delay their own reproduction and help care for the children of their middle-aged and older mothers, aunts, older female housemates, etc.. Average age of first pregnancy for bonobo-like human women is older than 40.

The cultural/intellectual/ideological side of how these reproductive hierarchies work is the bonobo-like human notion of motherhood stresses the mother's responsibility for socialization and intellectual and moral education of her children, so they tend to think of course it's usually best for mothering to be done by somebody who's at least middle-aged and has the life experience, knowledge, and emotional intelligence that comes with that. Younger bonobo-like human women tend to agree with this and see their assistive role in child-care as a valuable apprenticeship for being moms themselves when they're old enough.

Socially, males fit into this arrangement in about the same place as younger women, as assistive caregivers for the children of their middle-aged and older sisters, aunts, older female housemates, etc.. Younger bonobo-like human males don't experience the behavioral fertility suppression their female peers do, it's more-or-less a toss-up whether a bonobo-like human woman looking to get pregnant will choose older or younger potential gene donors, but biological fatherhood isn't very socially significant in bonobo-like human society.

This type of database is highly sought after by businesses because it serves several purposes:

Store contacts. Assign a tag or a list per contact. Perform remarketing or retargeting.

What Is Crawling?

When it comes to SEO (Search Engine Optimization), one of the most crucial yet often overlooked processes is crawling. Whether you’re running a personal blog, a business website, or an online store, understanding how crawling works can greatly impact your website's visibility in search engine results. But what exactly is crawling, and why does it matter?

In this blog, we'll break down what crawling is, how it works, and why it’s important for your SEO strategy. We'll also explain how a Digital marketing agency in Tamil Nadu can help you optimize your website for better crawling and indexing.

What Is Crawling?

Crawling is the process by which search engines like Google use automated bots (also known as crawlers or spiders) to explore and index the content of websites. Crawlers follow links on the web, starting from a set of known pages (seed URLs) and moving through the site by following hyperlinks. They gather information about the content of each page, such as text, images, and meta tags.

Why Is Crawling Important for SEO?

Search engines like Google rely on crawlers to discover new and updated content on the web. Here’s why crawling is essential for your website's SEO:

Indexing: Crawlers are responsible for adding your pages to a search engine’s index. If a page is not crawled, it will not appear in search engine results.

Website Visibility: Websites that are easily crawlable have a better chance of appearing in search engine results, driving more organic traffic.

Ranking: The more crawlers can access and understand your website’s content, the better your pages can be ranked for relevant search queries.

Freshness: Crawlers regularly revisit websites to check for updates. New or updated content is often prioritized and may get indexed faster, increasing your website's chances of ranking for new keywords.

How Does Crawling Work?

The process of crawling is highly technical, but understanding its basics can help you make better decisions for your SEO strategy. Here's how crawling typically works:

Discovery: Crawlers begin by discovering web pages using links from other websites or from a sitemap. A sitemap is a list of all the URLs on your website that you want search engines to crawl.

Following Links: Crawlers follow hyperlinks from one page to another, uncovering more pages within your site. This is how search engines discover all the content on your website.

Content Retrieval: Once the crawler accesses a page, it retrieves the content and stores it in the search engine’s index. This content can include text, images, videos, and other elements that help search engines understand what the page is about.

Revisiting and Re-crawling: Crawlers don't just visit your site once. They regularly revisit pages to check for any updates or new content. This ensures that search engines can index fresh content and reflect changes quickly.

Factors That Affect Crawling

There are several factors that determine how efficiently search engines can crawl your website:

Site Structure: A well-organized website with a clear hierarchy and easy navigation is easier for crawlers to explore. Make sure your website has an intuitive structure and internal linking.

Robots.txt: This is a file on your website that can control how search engines crawl your site. You can block certain pages or sections from being crawled if necessary.

Sitemaps: Submitting an XML sitemap to search engines helps them quickly find all the pages on your website that you want to be indexed.

Page Load Speed: Slow-loading pages can prevent crawlers from effectively exploring your website. Optimize your website’s speed for better crawling.

Crawl Budget: Search engines allocate a certain crawl budget to your site based on its size and importance. If you have a large website, it’s essential to optimize the crawl budget to ensure the most important pages are crawled and indexed first.

How Can You Check If Your Website Is Being Crawled?

Here are a few ways to check if your website is being crawled effectively:

Google Search Console: This tool allows you to see how Googlebot is crawling your site. You can also identify any crawling errors that might be preventing pages from being indexed.

Crawl Reports: Use SEO tools like Screaming Frog or SEMrush to analyze how search engines are crawling your site and identify any issues.

Check Server Logs: Server logs show the requests made by search engine crawlers, giving you a detailed view of which pages have been crawled.

How to Improve Crawling and SEO Performance

To enhance crawling and improve SEO, follow these best practices:

Optimize Site Structure: Make sure your website is easy to navigate with a clear hierarchy. This helps crawlers explore all your pages more effectively.

Create an XML Sitemap: Submit your sitemap to Google Search Console and other search engines. This helps crawlers discover and index all your important pages.

Fix Crawl Errors: Regularly check Google Search Console for crawl errors. Resolve issues such as broken links or blocked pages to ensure that crawlers can access your content.

Speed Up Your Site: A faster website ensures that crawlers can explore your pages without delays, improving your chances of ranking.

Avoid Duplicate Content: Duplicate content can confuse crawlers and may lead to SEO penalties. Ensure that each page on your site has unique, valuable content.

Use Structured Data: Adding structured data to your pages helps search engines better understand the content and improves the chances of rich snippets being displayed in search results.

Real-World Example: How Crawling Impacts SEO

Consider a Digital marketing agency in Tamil Nadu that has just launched a new blog section on its website. If the site’s internal linking structure is weak, or if it has an incomplete sitemap, crawlers may miss the new blog posts, leading to delays in indexing. As a result, the pages won’t appear in search results, and the agency misses out on valuable organic traffic.

Conclusion

Crawling is a foundational aspect of SEO that directly impacts how your website appears in search engine results. By understanding the crawling process and optimizing your website’s structure, you can ensure that your content is discovered and indexed, improving your chances of ranking higher in search results.

If you want to ensure that your website is being crawled and indexed efficiently, working with a Digital marketing agency in Tamil Nadu can provide you with the expertise needed to improve your site’s crawlability and SEO performance.

OP, you are so right about this. And I have good news:

It's Bluesky.

Bluesky's architecture is designed around learning the lessons from all the platforms that came before it to make something that works for user joy over engagement farming (including rage bait). On the surface it looks like Twitter, but you slowly start seeing the other influences.

No algorithm by default.

Following is the main feed. There's an optional Discover feed for things you might like, and a popular with friends feed, but most people ignore them. You can follow other feeds that bring together tags and keywords (much like Tumblr), and sometimes do other nifty things, and choose if you want them mixed in your Following feed as well as separate. Getting settled can take longer because much like Tumblr you have to find the people you want to follow on the grapevines. They will not just be fed to you.

Starter Packs.

People can make Starter Pack lists of people they think others would enjoy following. Often based around themes like Black Academics or Cat accounts (that don't post stolen content and use alt text) or Indie TTRPG Creators. Great way to find people you follow based on the recommendations of another person you like.

Tiered moderation.

Site moderators Who are trying to be better than other sites, and talk about what they're doing to improve their responsiveness (especially since the sudden user growth rate has them scrambling to plug in more servers let alone hire and train moderators).

Moderation Lists. Community moderation you can subscribe to (and unsubscribe to). You can choose to block or mute the accounts on the list. Allows communities to have much more nuanced control of who they block. Often respond to threats faster than site mods could, and bound by a personal code of ethics instead of a general TOS. A notorious transphobe joined recently and by the time I saw word of her to block, 4 of my moderation lists had blocked her for me first. This feature has been key in helping marginalized communities protect themselves.

Nuclear block. Blocking someone basically wipes them from existence for you. Very strong site culture of blocking people instead of pointless arguments and dunks. Which means a lot more people productively work through smaller differences or misunderstandings because we're not in constant fight or flight mode fending off the worst people ever.

Content Controls

Choose who can reply and if quote posts are allowed with the ability to change that later. Hide a reply for you or everyone and it's hidden for real + breaks it off the thread. Blocking someone cuts off their replies from the thread or their quote posts. Can also detach a specific quote post if someone's trying to cause drama. It stops dunking and other harassment, or just unwanted attention. Which again means that people aren't in constant fight or flight mode when posting.

Standard mute words and tags feature is there and it actually works for real. Don't like something? You won't see it. Works on alt-text, too.

Results

The result is a significantly more chill and friendly site that can effectively deal with unwanted interactions well enough that everyone can calm down and enjoy things together. Because people are seeing what they actually want instead of rage bait, artists and other creators have found their engagement is much higher even with fewer followers.

So yes, OP, you are absolutely correct about what would make for a better social media experience. It has been tried and it's working. It makes everyone so much happier and nicer. It lets people actually sit down and solve complex problems, even while shitposting about them.

Ben Collins joking about buying The Onion to save it led to him actually doing it, and joking about The Onion buying InfoWars led him to being able to do that, too.

The anti-Blackness problems of early Bluesky were reduced enough by the moderation and content control features being added that Black Twitter has been rapidly moving to the Blacksky community. Trans people aren't under constant attack in our mentions, and attacks that do crop up can be systematically weeded out. The Worst People You Know have been repeatedly deplatformed on Bluesky by the user base itself and keep writing whiny complaint columns about how no one will engage with them there.

I've watched my fandoms rapidly grow from ghost town to thriving bustle without major drama, even when negative opinions show up in the feeds. It's just so much easier to shug it off and just keep scrolling. If anyone starts acting weirdly they can just be gotten rid of before an actual problem starts. Artists are sharing 9 years worth of their old fan art and everyone's having a grand time.

Tumblr is bizarre and unique enough that I enjoy hanging out here as well, but every other site can go in the bin. My mental health and overall well-being have dramatically improved since ditching Xitter (with very little Meta or Reddit usage already). I feel less inclined to hate humanity as a whole because I can actually connect with passionate, interesting, and kind people. Even when there is bullshit it's at such a more manageable level that it's just irritating instead of threatening. Having the tools to assert my boundaries has helped me better enforce them everywhere else because I have seen how nice the result is.

A better world is possible. We can build it, and are building it. Now that we know it works, we can start pestering every other website to take those lessons seriously.

I wish there was social media without a really heavy algorithm...

Facebook is so strange because they don't show you what your friends are actually posting, just what they think will keep you the most engaged.

They seem to miss the point that our taste is much more open-ended than meets the eye. My preferences are not so much the stats of a static NPC in an RPG, but rather, an ever-shifting, entirely unpredictable miasma.

They're so intent on predicting what I like and indeed, they can predict a shadow of my taste.

I guess, engagement does not equal enjoyment, fulfillment, happiness...

Landing Page SEO Tips: Boost Your Page Rankings Today

In today’s competitive digital landscape, a well-optimized landing page can mean the difference between getting buried in search engine results and climbing to the top. Whether you’re driving traffic through paid ads or organic search, your landing page serves as the first impression of your business. With the right strategies, you can ensure your landing page not only ranks well but also converts visitors into customers. Let’s explore essential landing page SEO tips to help you boost your page rankings today.

1. Start with Keyword Research

The foundation of any successful SEO strategy is keyword research. To optimize your landing page:

Identify Target Keywords: Use tools like Google Keyword Planner, SEMrush, or Ahrefs to discover keywords with high search volume and low competition.

Focus on Long-Tail Keywords: These are more specific and often have less competition. For instance, instead of targeting “SEO tips,” try “landing page SEO tips.”

Analyze Competitor Keywords: Check what keywords your competitors are targeting to gain insights and opportunities.

Incorporate these keywords naturally into your landing page’s content, headings, and meta tags without overstuffing.

2. Optimize Your Page Title and Meta Description

Your page title and meta description are the first things users see in search results. To make them effective:

Include Target Keywords: Position your primary keyword (e.g., “landing page SEO tips”) early in the title and description.

Write for Click-Through Rates (CTR): Craft compelling, benefit-driven headlines that entice users to click.

Keep it Concise: Titles should be under 60 characters, and meta descriptions should stay within 155-160 characters.

For example:

Title: “Landing Page SEO Tips: Boost Your Rankings and Conversions Today”

Meta Description: “Discover proven landing page SEO tips to improve your rankings, attract more visitors, and drive conversions.”

3. Create High-Quality, Engaging Content

Content is king, even on landing pages. To rank higher:

Provide Value: Ensure your content answers user queries and addresses their pain points.

Use a Clear Structure: Break up text with headings, subheadings, and bullet points for easy readability.

Incorporate Multimedia: Use images, videos, and infographics to enhance engagement.

Avoid Duplicate Content: Ensure your landing page’s content is unique and not copied from other pages or sources.

Google prioritizes pages that deliver exceptional user experiences, so keep your content informative, concise, and actionable.

4. Optimize for Mobile Users

With the majority of web traffic now coming from mobile devices, mobile optimization is crucial. To ensure your landing page performs well:

Use Responsive Design: Your page should adapt seamlessly to different screen sizes.

Optimize Loading Speed: Compress images, use fast hosting, and minimize CSS/JavaScript files to improve load times.

Simplify Navigation: Make it easy for users to find what they’re looking for, with clear buttons and links.

A mobile-friendly landing page not only improves user experience but also aligns with Google’s mobile-first indexing policy.

5. Improve Page Load Speed

Slow-loading pages are a major turnoff for users and search engines alike. To speed up your landing page:

Leverage Browser Caching: Store frequently used files on users’ devices for faster loading.

Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN): Distribute your page’s content across multiple servers to reduce latency.

Compress Images: Use tools like TinyPNG or ImageOptim to reduce image sizes without compromising quality.

Minify Code: Remove unnecessary characters and spaces from HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files.

Fast-loading pages enhance user experience, reduce bounce rates, and improve rankings.

6. Leverage Internal and External Links

Links play a vital role in SEO. To maximize their potential:

Internal Links: Link to relevant pages on your website to guide users and distribute link equity.

External Links: Reference authoritative sources to add credibility and value to your content.

Anchor Text Optimization: Use descriptive, keyword-rich anchor text for your links.

However, avoid overloading your page with links, as it can dilute your message and confuse users.

7. Use Compelling Calls-to-Action (CTAs)

A successful landing page is not just about attracting visitors; it’s about converting them. To achieve this:

Place CTAs Strategically: Position your call-to-action buttons above the fold and throughout the page.

Make Them Stand Out: Use contrasting colors and clear, action-oriented text (e.g., “Download Now” or “Get Started”).

Test and Refine: Use A/B testing to identify which CTAs perform best.

An effective CTA can significantly increase your page’s conversion rate.

8. Optimize Images and Videos

Visual content can enhance your landing page’s appeal, but it must be optimized for SEO:

Use Descriptive File Names: Rename image and video files with relevant keywords (e.g., “landing-page-seo-tips.jpg”).

Add Alt Text: Include keyword-rich alt tags for all images.

Compress Files: Reduce file sizes to improve loading speed.

Embed Videos Properly: Host videos on platforms like YouTube or Vimeo to avoid slowing down your page.

Optimized visuals not only improve SEO but also enhance user engagement.

9. Ensure Secure and Accessible URLs

Search engines prioritize secure and user-friendly websites. To meet these standards:

Use HTTPS: Secure your website with an SSL certificate.

Create Simple URLs: Avoid long, complicated URLs. For example, use “www.example.com/landing-page-seo-tips” instead of “www.example.com/page?id=12345.”

Include Keywords: Incorporate your target keyword into the URL.

Secure and straightforward URLs improve both rankings and user trust.

10. Focus on User Intent

Understanding user intent is key to creating a landing page that meets searcher needs. Determine whether your target audience is looking for:

Informational Content: Provide detailed guides, FAQs, or how-to articles.

Transactional Opportunities: Highlight products, services, or special offers.

Navigational Needs: Make it easy for users to find specific information or complete an action.

Aligning your content with user intent increases engagement and satisfaction.

11. Monitor and Analyze Performance

SEO is an ongoing process. To ensure your landing page continues to perform well:

Track Metrics: Use tools like Google Analytics and Google Search Console to monitor traffic, bounce rates, and conversions.

Conduct Regular Audits: Identify and fix issues like broken links, duplicate content, or slow-loading elements.

Stay Updated: Keep up with SEO trends and algorithm changes.

Consistent monitoring allows you to refine your strategy and maintain high rankings.

Conclusion

Optimizing your landing page for SEO is a multi-faceted process that involves careful planning, execution, and continuous improvement. By implementing these landing page SEO tips, you can boost your page rankings, attract more visitors, and ultimately achieve your business goals. Start optimizing today and watch your landing page soar to the top of search engine results!

Why Every Business Needs a Professional Web Design Team

your website is often the first point of contact potential customers have with your brand. It can make or break their decision to trust you, engage with you, or make a purchase. While DIY website builders may seem appealing, they can’t replace the expertise of a professional web design team. Here’s why every business needs one

1. A Professional Website Builds Credibility and Trust

Custom Designs that reflect your brand’s identity and values.

User-friendly layouts that instill confidence in your audience.

Speed optimization for faster load times, reducing bounce rates.

Result: Visitors are more likely to stay on your site, engage with your content, and convert into customers.

6. Increased Conversions with Strategic Call-to-Actions (CTAs)

The Importance: A website is a powerful tool for driving business goals, whether it’s generating leads, making sales, or encouraging user sign-ups. Without strategic CTAs, visitors may not take the desired actions.

How a Professional Web Design Team Helps:

They design clear, compelling CTAs that stand out and guide users toward key actions (e.g., “Buy Now,” “Get a Quote,” “Contact Us”).

They ensure CTAs are strategically placed where they will be most effective, such as on landing pages or at the end of blog posts.

Result: A website that not only attracts visitors but also converts them into paying customers or leads.

7. Ongoing Support and Maintenance

They offer analytics tracking to help you optimize your site based on user behavior.

Result: A website that runs smoothly, stays secure, and evolves with your business needs.

They handle all aspects of web development, from design to functionality, saving you time.

They avoid costly mistakes by implementing industry best practices from the start.

What is Crawl Budget and How to Optimize It for SEO Success

Crawl budget is a crucial factor in SEO that determines how often search engines visit and index your website’s pages. If search engines can't crawl your site efficiently, important content might not get indexed, affecting your visibility in search results. In this article, we’ll explain what crawl budget is, why it matters, and how you can optimize it to ensure your key pages get the attention they deserve from search engines.

Why is Crawl Budget Important?

Crawl budget is important because it determines how efficiently search engine bots crawl and index a website's pages. If the crawl budget is not managed well, search engines may overlook important pages or take longer to discover updated content, which can negatively affect search rankings. This is particularly crucial for large websites with many pages, as an optimized crawl budget ensures that the most valuable and relevant pages are prioritized for crawling. By improving crawl efficiency through techniques like fixing broken links, reducing duplicate content, and optimizing site structure, websites can enhance their visibility and performance in search engine results.

How is Crawl Budget Determined?

Google determines the crawl budget for a website based on two primary factors:

Crawl Rate Limit: This controls the maximum number of simultaneous connections Googlebot can use to crawl the site, along with the time delay between crawls. If a site responds quickly, the crawl rate increases. If the server slows down or gives error responses, the crawl rate decreases.  

Crawl Demand: This is about how much Google wants to crawl the site. High-demand pages (like those frequently updated or highly linked) get more attention from Googlebot. Crawl demand depends on factors like:

Popularity: Pages that are more popular in terms of traffic or backlinks have a higher demand.  

Freshness: Frequently updated content tends to get crawled more often.  

Site Changes: Significant changes to a site, such as adding or removing large sections, can impact crawl demand.

Factors That Affect Crawl Budget

URL Structure: A clean, simple URL structure helps search engines understand your content better, making it easier for them to crawl your site.  

Internal Linking: Proper internal linking helps distribute the crawl budget effectively, guiding crawlers to your most important pages.  

Duplicate Content: Duplicate content can waste your crawl budget. Use canonical tags to specify the preferred version of a page to avoid duplication issues.  

Low-Quality Pages: Pages with thin or low-quality content might consume crawl budget unnecessarily. Removing or improving them can help focus crawlers on valuable content.  

Sitemap: A clear and well-maintained XML sitemap acts as a guide for search engines, helping them discover and crawl your pages more efficiently.  

Robots.txt File: The robots.txt file tells search engines which parts of your site to crawl and which to avoid. Proper use of this file can save crawl budget by blocking irrelevant pages.  

Server Performance: A fast and reliable server helps increase the crawl rate, as search engines are more likely to crawl a responsive site quickly.

How to Optimize Crawl Budget

Improve Site Speed: Faster websites tend to get a higher crawl rate. Optimize your server, compress images, and use a content delivery network (CDN) to speed up your site.

Eliminate Crawl Errors: Use tools like Google Search Console to identify and fix crawl errors (like 404 pages). Reducing errors helps search engines focus on the right pages.

Block Irrelevant Pages: Use the robots.txt file to prevent search engines from crawling non-essential pages (like admin or login pages).

Consolidate Duplicate Content: Use canonical tags to avoid crawling multiple versions of the same content.

Keep URLs Clean: Avoid dynamic URLs with unnecessary parameters. Use clean, static URLs that are easy for search engines to understand.

Update Your Sitemap: Ensure your XML sitemap is always up-to-date with your site’s structure and only includes the pages you want indexed.

Use Pagination and Noindex: For large websites, implement proper pagination and use the noindex directive for pages you don’t want to be included in the index.

Common Crawl Budget Mistakes to Avoid

Ignoring Crawl Errors: Not fixing crawl errors promptly can waste valuable crawl budgets.

Thin Content Pages: Too many low-quality or thin content pages can dilute search engine crawlers' focus.

Overloading the Sitemap: Including every page in the XML sitemap, even those that are irrelevant or outdated, can overwhelm crawlers.

Unnecessary URL Parameters: Not managing URL parameters can lead to the same content being crawled multiple times, which wastes crawl budget.

Heavy Use of JavaScript: Websites that heavily rely on JavaScript can hinder the crawling process since not all crawlers can handle JavaScript content well.

How to Monitor Crawl Budget

To track and manage your crawl budget, use tools like:

Google Search Console: Provides data on crawl stats, errors, and the pages Googlebot has accessed recently.

Log File Analysis: Analyzing server logs can help you understand how crawlers interact with your site, revealing any issues with crawl frequency or efficiency.

Third-Party Tools: Tools like Screaming Frog or Ahrefs offer insights into your website’s structure, errors, and areas for crawl optimization.

Conclusion

Crawl budget is a key SEO factor, especially for larger sites with extensive content. By managing the crawl budget effectively, you can ensure that search engines focus on your most important pages, helping them get indexed faster and improving your site’s visibility. Regular audits, technical SEO best practices, and attention to server health can keep your crawl budget in check, driving more organic traffic over time. A trusted SEO service company can provide the expertise needed to navigate these complexities and ensure your site performs at its best.
