This is what you look like.
2.3 billion Christians, 1.9 billion Muslims, 100 companies producing almost 3/4 of carbon emissions, but it's a fraction of a percent of that 0.2% Jewish human population that is the problem.
Speaking of "liberal discourse," you know how Leftist Tumblr loses its mind every time a major news source publishes an article advising impoverished POC in 3rd world countries to do more decrease their carbon emissions? Despite said poor POC in 3rd world countries contributing less than a fraction of 3% of yearly global emissions?
I'm old enough to remember when Leftist Tumblr LOST ITS MIND over the bald-faced racist and classist scapegoating of this article.
Since Sub-Saharan Africans who use traditional fire cook stoves (rather than electricity) are such a minuscule part of the global population, and Africa itself only contributes maybe 3% of yearly carbon emissions, putting the burden of decreasing global carbon emissions on this tiny fraction of a minority of the total human population was seen as laughable and transparently racist/classist scapegoating.
Yet, here you are: doing the exact same thing to Jews.
All because they think God interprets flipping on a light switch as “work” 🤡
Wow, that's just eybrow-scorchingly antisemetic ._.
So much for "not hating Jews" based on "religious beliefs"... And most Jews don't even follow the dumb light rule anyway!
Thanks for showing us your whole ass, @kosmic-apothecary
P.S. I SAY AGAIN, didn't your Christ preach in Matthew 7:1-3:
“Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. For you will be treated as you treat others... And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own? How can you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t see past the log in your own eye? Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye”
The log of antisemitism portruding from your eye is really obscuring your vision, kosmic-apothecary. You might want to look into that.
(And--I don't know--review your Christ's teachings of humility, self-awareness, moral self-improvement, and forgiveness/understanding of others BEFORE lecturing Jews on our supposed moral shortcomings, while you're at it.)
hi! fellow pro-palestine person here! you said some pretty antisemitic shit when you implied judaism encourages being "sneaky and deceitful." supporting a permanent ceasefire is not what makes you antisemitic pal
I NEVER said “Judaism encourages being sneaky and deceitful”. You KNOW this because you appropriately only quoted half that sentence and used the word “implied”.
I was answering someone who had asked why Christians were so triggered by things like the eruv and Shabbat lamp. There are VERY good reasons to be critical of those practices just like there are good reasons to be critical of certain aspects of ANY religion. And yes, those practices ARE sneaky and deceitful, at least in the minds of other believers, which is what I made very clear in my response.
Perhaps you’re one of the millions of people who has bought into the false notion that to criticism any aspect of Judaism in any way is off limits or inherently hateful. I used to be one of those people, but no longer. People/societies/religions become out of control and extremely dangerous when they’re above criticism.
The brutal genocide Israel is getting away with in Gaza while calling everyone antisemitic who rightly criticizes them is a direct result of the same thinking that you’ve internalized.
When you are questioning if something’s antisemitic, ask yourself if you’d be equally as offended and worried if this was something someone said about Christianity or Islam. 99/100 you’ll find that your discomfort stems from society training us to feel more than comfortable, even righteous, in criticizing other religions, but to interpret any criticism of Jews or Judaism as hateful and completely unacceptable.
#antisemitism#leftist antisemitism#leftist hypocrisy#judge not#judge not lest ye be judged#op is really blinded by the log of antisemitism sticking out of their eye#i'd make a joke "it's a wonder they can even see the speck of 'goyim are blaming us for things that aren't our fault again!' in jews' eyes#but really come on#this is just face-spitting bile-horking jew-hatred#racists always think their racism is 'rational'#same with sexists and homophobes and transphobes and classist snobs and even islamophobes#Leftists are adamant that ANY AND ALL prejudice is 100% IRRATIONAL and NOT AT ALL logically based and FUCK YOU FOR THINKING OTHERWISE#EXCEPT when it comes to anti-semitism.#Then suddenly “hating jews is 100% logical rational and fact-based and NOT AT ALL emotion-driven & FUCK YOU JEWS YOU DESERVE IT JUST DIE!!1#Yeah EVERY OTHER prejudice in the world is 100% irrational illogical and emotion-driven EXCEPT for YOUR Jew-hatred#THAT ALONE is the ONE prejudice in the history of humanity that IS 100% logical rational and fact-based#no one else deserves the hatred scorn prejudice and abuse they face EXCEPT those “sneaky deceitful” jews#because jews are JUST. THAT. AWFUL.#kiss my pig-tasting ass (since the Quran likens Jews to pigs and apes and we MUST respect ONLY Christians' and Islam's beliefs right?)#(NO RESPECT should ever be afforded those 'sneaky' 'deceitful' Jews)#how do you even sleep at night?

And So We Run (ch.5) - Traumathicc
A/N: Here’s what was supposed to be the rest of chapter 4! I really hate tumblr sometimes.
”GaaaAAAHAAAH-”
”Try to stay quiet-”
”AaaaaAAAAAOOOW-”
”-Try to stay quiet, PLEASE.”
”But you’re hurdinnh meeeeeeEEEH-”
”-SHHH! Calm down! The wound isn’t even that deep!”
”You’re just saying thaAHAA-”
That’s it. She has no choice anymore. Adore takes one of the spare rags and stuffs it into Willam’s mouth. She can’t risk them getting discovered again. Besides, it’s getting dark, which means it’s easier for a assailant to sneak up on them.
”I’m sorry, but you’re making too much noise. I’m almost done though, don’t worry.”
Willam gives off a muffled whimper as Adore dabs another piece of fabric in the remainder of one of the bottles. She presses it against Willam’s arm, wiping off the last of the dried blood around the wound. Willam bites down hard on the rag, but she manages to stay quiet this time.
Adore then proceeds to wrap the fabric around the wound like a bandage.
”There! That should do it!”
Willam gets up from the log immediately and pulls the rag out of her mouth. She dry heaves a few times, spits dramatically into a bush and throws it on the ground. Then she looks over at Adore.
”Thank you.”
She pauses and bites her lip.
”Y’know… that whole nurse mode you went into… was kinda hot…”
Adore’s face turns beet red in about 0.5 seconds. She manages to squeak out a ”Don’t mention it!” Before walking off to get the potato sack.
She picks up a potato and studies it thoughtfully. She realizes she has no idea what to do with them. Eat them raw? Out of the question. Just the thought is enough to make her heave. Maybe they could boil them? They have nothing to boil them in, and water is a precious resource. Well, if they want to cook them they could always just roast them. Adore picks up two spare sticks from the pile of spare firewood she gathered earlier and gives one to Willam.
“Put a potato on this and hold it over the fire.”
The minutes that follow are spent in relative silence. The potatoes are extremely tasteless, but Adore supposes flavor is a luxury now. She’s almost done roasting her third one when Willam suddenly speaks up.
“So… what’s your deal?”
“My what?”
“You still haven’t told me why you were crying when I found you. Something bad happened to you? I mean, aside from, y’know, the situation with the game.”
Adore takes a deep breath.
“I saw someone die today. Or, more like, heard someone die. I didn’t see it because I was hiding. But I was close. And I heard everything.”
Willam gives her a surprisingly soft look, followed by a small “Oh.”
“And do you know what the worst part was?” Adore didn’t really mean to continue but it’s like someone’s opened a faucet in her brain. “I couldn’t even do anything! Even if I wanted too… I was so scared I couldn’t move my body… And they were laughing… What kind of person laughs at death like that?!”
“Alaska.”
Adore almost jumps at the sudden seriousness in Willam’s voice.
”Well, not really” Willam continues. ”She’s always taken her… craft, very seriously. But she does tend to surround herself with people that are just in it for sport. They’re all pawns, of course, poor things. Though I can’t really say I feel that sorry for any of them…”
Adore doesn’t say anything. There’s something strangely profound about this new side of Willam.
”Alaska cares about one thing and one thing only. Winning. She and the people who shaped her into the White Reaper will do anything to ensure her victory in the games. It’s kind of why a nobody like me was chosen as her partner.”
”You didn’t train with Alaska?”
Willam laughs bitterly.
”No, no, no. The higher ups back home were cranky about the fact that there always has to be two girls from each district. And since they didn’t want anyone to outshine their rising star they handpicked me from one of the tent slums in the outskirts of the city. Y’know, near the diamond mines? Yeah. As you can probably imagine, it’s not like I had any other choice, I have no family and was practically living on the street. I guess they figured I’d bite it pretty quickly and that’d be the end of it.”
“I’m sorry…”
“Why? It’s not like I was living it up or anything. Plus, this game does have its benefits. Like free booze, excellent food and-“ She gives Adore a wink. “- Extraordinary company!”
Adore laughs. “You sound like you’re from the capitol!”
“They made me practice A LOT.”
“High districts and their finery, I suppose.”
“Where are you from, anyway?”
“District 11”
“Holy shit! Then maybe we aren’t so different?”
“Hey! I had a house! And a mom… and friends…”
The burning behind Adore’s eyes is coming back. At least sob stories make for good television.
“What if I never see them again? If Alaska really is that dangerous… oh god, what if she finds Laganja before I do?”
The possibility had never even crossed Adore’s mind until now. She can practically feel the color draining from her face.
“Wait, hold on, who’s Laganja?”
“She’s my part- my friend. She’s the other 11. I haven’t seen her since the bloodbath… fuck what if she-“
“Shhhhhhshhshhhhhh~” Willam grabs her arms. “Calm down. Take deep breaths. That ceremony thing is soon, right? Now, I can’t guarantee that she won’t be up there, but there’s a greater chance that she isn’t!”
Adore feels tears hitting the back of her hands. The minute spent on that podium was one of the most horrifying things she’s ever been through. She remembers standing there wanting nothing more than to live.
She just wanted them all to live.
Why did she tell Laganja to run away from her? She’s not a coward, with Adore’s help, surely she could hold her own in a fight against most of the others.
Then she remembers the slash. The gurgles. The screams. The laughter.
Maybe there was no other choice?
“-dore? Adore? A d o r e??”
She’s suddenly jolted back into reality by a hushed “It’s starting now!” From Willam.
She forces herself to look up at the sky.
~FALLEN TRIBUTES~
The hologram is white and glittery, and accompanied by the capitol anthem. Then it bursts and proceeds to rain down on the arena like snow.
Then the pictures.
A tall girl with short, silver blonde hair and a surprised expression standing against a silver frame and the name MAX MALANAPHY in the same white snowletters.
Adore finds herself taking Willam’s hand.
TRIXIE MATTEL.
A bundle of pink and blonde with a big smile and huge round glasses.
SHARON NEEDLES.
An unnaturally pale girl with black, wavy hair and glowing contacts.
JADE JOLIE.
A know-it-all smile clad in jewelry and a jacket with way too many buttons.
Then the hologram bursts again and the music fades out.
Adore almost collapses against the log in relief.
Her and Willam fall asleep together that night. Adore dreams about a clearing in the woods, a bouquet of hepatica and a blue eyed smile.
She’s alone again when she wakes up.

Entry 5.2: Philippa Torgal
AUTHOR NOTE: We’re not putting links on these anymore because of tumblr being rude, our blog has hyperlinks on the sidebar and the fic tag listed. Sorry about that.
“I’m going outside.” Bart could barely hear his father pleading for him to come back inside, but he was already swimming to his seamoth, parked out of sight of the crabsquids. He had just jumped into the driver's seat and began piloting it upwards when he heard it. A deafening roar, some of the rocks from the pillars and the cave ceiling above shook and fell.
He turned the little ship around as fast as he could, only to see the habitat torn open, Maida, spear in hand, in the grasp of a dragon as it descended beyond where his ship could go. He tried to scream but he couldn’t hear anything. He drove closer, looking for a trace of his father, something, somewhere. No sign of him, he got out of the seamoth and entered the remains of the base.
He saw someone else. Long black hair, warm, welcoming eyes. Then he finally heard himself scream.
Ryley woke up in the middle of the night with a blood curdling scream coming from Bart’s room. Rushing down the hallways and a ladder, they found him, tangled in sheets on the floor. Hesitantly, they knelt down next to him and pulled him into their arms. As they held him tightly, the shouts died down, slowly. Ryley rocked slowly, not really knowing what else to do until Bart woke up.
After the moment’s confusion, Bart finally opened his eyes, and then his mouth. “Do you happen to know how I landed on the floor?” Ryley snickered and gave back a shrug. They pulled out their PDA, and smiled at the pointed look Bart gave them.
“What? It’s really hard to sign at this angle!” Ryley ignored their friend’s disapproving frown and continued. “You didn’t happen to have another of those friendly visions, did you?” They asked. The man was still quiet, with a scared look in his eyes. “Was it a bad dream?”
When they didn’t get much of a response, they continued, “it might help to talk about it.”
“Ryley… how is my mother these days?” Bart broke out, in a tone so low it could pass as a whisper. “How was she when you left? How was she after I left?”
The question took Ryley so off guard that they almost dropped Bart. Fortunately, the guy got up on his own when he noticed their wrists tightening in a grasp for something that wasn’t quite there. It had been years since… they didn’t even consider Bart was unaware of everything that had happened in his homeworld since he left. How would they tell him that? They didn’t even have time to think about it, to prepare for that kind of conversation.
“Ryley… my gods, what happened?” Bart’s voice rose an octave, indicating panic. Ryley shook their head and grit their teeth. They decided they had to be strong for their friend. There was no easy way to tell that.
“I’m afraid I don’t have a happily ever after story for you, my friend.” They typed. “Will you make an exception for the PDA this time? I’ll have to go from the beginning, and I don’t wanna mess this up.”
“Mess what up? I, I… I don’t understand, what’s gotten you so... Please, just. So long as you talk.”
“Do you remember that shortly after you left Earth, I fought with my parents? There was a falling out between us. They kicked me out, we weren’t on speaking terms anymore…”
“I remember, that’s when my mom stepped up.” Bart said. “She took you in and threatened to sue them if they tried anything. We talked through the deep-space comms until you fell asleep, and I felt bad I wasn’t there for you.”
Ryley smiled fondly at the memory. “Your mother was. You know how she is. And well, now you know how after that I became part of the family. You and your father were gone, and we were both so lonely. We became each other’s new family.”
“So at least you had each other. Thank you, Ryley, I… it worried me so much how alone my mother was, out there.”
But Ryley held out his hand. They weren’t finished yet.
“Do you remember that Bentley guy? Dusty old fart, friend of your dad’s. He had a weird Rich People name, that guy. Wentworth, or something like that. Well, Wentworth Bentley....” What was next read by the PDA got muffled by Bart’s laughter. Ryley rewinded a bit. “Shortly after you were… declared dead, she agreed to ‘loan’ the company to Bentley, as she didn’t feel, well, stable enough to run a galactic trade company. But it had the legal contract that if you somehow made it back, you would be the owner. He signed without paying much mind to it. Probably believed it to be impossible anyways, and that Philippa Torgal was just an old lady holding onto false hopes.”
“I always did think he was a dick. Using a helpless widowed lady like that.” Bart grumbled, earning a compassionate nod from Ryley.
“I’m sorry, Bart. Everything went downhill from there. I took odd jobs, programming and the like, for a while to help her out. That asshole Bentley didn't give her much of a compensation, considering all of the expenses she had to handle in the wake of everything. So I eventually joined with the TransGov Military. Didn’t like it all that much, but at least they put me with the drones and computers instead. That made Phillipa worry a lot less.”
Bart choked a bit. “Hold on, you, you, of all people , joined the bloody military?”
“This is a lot of stuff to type, please hold your comments until the end” Ryley paused the log, glancing at their friend, who did actually have the decency to look a bit ashamed. “Anyways. I came back to visit every now and again. But then when I finally quit, saved up enough money to pay off everything, I came back to an empty house. Found out from the neighbor that she was in the hospital. Ran the whole way there. She had something lethal called Byrn Verril’s Disease, I think you must know it, Mr. ‘I beamed an entire biomedical database into my head’. She was in late stages of it too. She didn’t want to worry me I guess, that’s why she never said anything. But she died that day. My only family left... I had her hand in mine, she wasn’t alone. I don’t know if that helps, but I did what I could.”
By the time the log was finished, Ryley was silent, crying into their hands, not looking up. The memories were too heavy, even when read by the stupid-sounding monotone of the computer AI. They wondered, vaguely, if they should try to recreate a more human voice for it.
“Ryley…” Bart was torn. “Thank you for taking care of her.”
“I wanted to do more. I never should have taken the military job, I should have stayed with her.”
“You didn’t know. Ry, you did so much more than I could, please don’t beat yourself up. You’re always doing that, do you even know how much you meant to us? To her?”
“I’m sorry.” Ryley typed out. “Bart, I know it can’t be easy to get news like that. If you need me here I’ll stay. If you need to talk about something else to ease your mind, maybe I can help with that bad dream you were having?”
“Thank you pal, but, you should go to sleep. You look exhausted, and I don’t wanna keep you up anymore.”
“Fair point. Well, you always look exhausted.”
“That’s true. But nope. To bed with you. I--I’d like to think about this for a while first. Some time alone.”
Ryley got up slowly, waving their head.
It was past morning time when Ryley woke up again, several hours later than when they usually did. Damn, Bart was right, they must’ve been really tired.
Now they were worried about the guy. How had he been after their sorrowful talk during the night? Ryley walked out the room to find Bart in the workstation room. They knocked on the wall to call attention to themself.
“You made this?” They signed, walking up to the window wall. It now had a desk in front of it, complete with a chair and a drawer full of parts and materials. Bart had already decorated it with a few hologram projectors, and was now off to working on some maps.
“Oh, you see, I had the sinking feeling I’d probably cause a disaster if I kept doing science in the kitchen.” He said, smiling but not looking up from what he was doing. “And we have to study, Ryley. We have to explore. I didn’t know it before, but I know it now. That creature has some relation to the benign enzyme the peepers carry, the one I’ve been medicating myself with. I’m sure of it, and I think that maybe if we find her, we’ll find the cure as well! Look over here, I know just where to start...” He was then interrupted by a violent coughing fit. “Oh... fuck. Look away”. He managed to spew before reaching for a small trash can under the table and vomiting on it.
“Gods you work too loud.” Ryley said, exasperatedly. “Much. Work too much.” They corrected their sign. “Don’t wanna slow down? After our talk?”
“Ryley, I finally have a reason to keep going, please, you have to let me work.” He begged. “Please, you’re the only one I have left. I’ve got no one else on Earth, all my family and closest friends died in the crash, there’s no one else on here besides you. I’m doing it for you too, do you understand that? You’re infected too, I have to find a way to help you. You’re… I’ve got no one else...”
Ryley sensed a panic attack growing. The little color the man had gotten back was vanishing from his face. They stroked his back, slowly, trying to calm him down.
Still, Bart just breathed in and continued talking. “I’m gonna need your help for this, of course. We need to go back to my… old house, if you can call it that. We have to study that vent, and then we have to find the others, that’s where the peepers are coming from. It’s what will lead us to the alien’s location, eventually. So now we…”
Ryley interrupted him by slapping their hand on the table, and shot Bart a serious look. They didn’t have all the words, but that expression said everything. Bart sighed.
“You. You, you have to go.” He said. “Yeah, of course, after all that’s why I need your help. You’re the one allowed to go to places. I can stay behind and help you from the radio.”
“You have to give yourself time” Ryley said. “And you not ready. I want you safe. Out there not safe.” Ryley tilted their head at his friend. “You don’t need to stop? I’ll get some fresh food?”
“I guess.” Bart stood up, leaning on the desk a bit. “I worked the whole morning, it’s starting to take it’s toll.” He admitted. “Sorry for snapping. I just. I don’t like being cooped up.”
“It’s not forever. Just rest now.” Ryley signed. Bart nodded and made his way back to his bed, as Ryley grabbed their helmet and went for the hatch to catch some fresh fish.

25 Days of Wolfmas: Prompt One
Hey, everybody! I decided to participate in the 25 Days of Wolfmas Prompt challenge! But, since I dont draw or paint, I decided to write out my answers as if they were transmissions from the Hephaestus station! I based this idea off the little minisode “Are Space Suits Itchy?” This was a pretty fun thing to write and I hope I did Eiffel’s character justice cx Enjoy!
U.S.S. HEPHAESTUS STATION, WOLF 359 MISSION
PROJECT WOLFMAS: TRANSCRIPTION AND NOTES
Log Date: 11291825-WDE
BEGIN TRANSMISSION
EIFFEL
Seriously, Commander? We’re doing this AGAIN? I thought Goddard learned their lesson from letting me talk to the munchkins in Oz a few weeks back. (Silence)
So I’m not answering questions? I am? But you just said this wasn’t the same thing! (Silence)
What do you mean just read the damn paper? How am I supposed to do this the right way and not have you go Hulk on me if I don’t know what I’m doing? (Silence)
Alright, alright! I’ll shut up and do it! (Sigh) Reading a cue card shouldn’t be that hard, right?
(Throat clearing can be heard)
(Pause) (Deep sigh)
EIFFEL
Hey again, folks. It’s your old pal, Doug Eiffel, back at it again with another craptastic extra assignment from the good people at Goddard Futuristics. Obviously, they didn’t think me ruining the space dreams of third graders all across America was good enough to qualify me for the ‘Stay Off the Airwaves’ award so here we are with yet another spectacular QnA!
(Sounds of tearing paper can be heard)
Okay, got the envelope open and- oh! It looks like there’s only one question for me to answer- thank god- so let’s get the ball rolling and wrap this little sesh up fast. Your boy’s got a date with age old space static to get to.
(More throat clearing) “Who or what got you listening to Wolf 359?” Wait a minute, what kind of question is this? Couldn’t they have chose something more interesting? Something like… something like….
(Silence)
Okay, I can’t think of anything better. Whatever! Let’s just get this over with. (Sigh)
Well, dear question writer, I am so, so very glad you asked! That is a totally boring story with no intrigue whatsoever! You see, once upon a time there was a handsome and amazing man named Doug Eiffel who went through a rough patch in his life that allowed him to meet his very own scary godmother- Mr. Cutter. Mr. Cutter told Doug about this magical invention called radio that would allow Doug to hear the cosmos. Mr. Cutter promised Doug an exciting adventure filled with fun times and rainbows, but instead of giving him that, Mr. Cutter stuck Doug on a spaceship far away from home with only G.I. Jane and Doctor Doom for company. Now Doug is stranded next to a star, forced to spend his days listening to the sounds of silence until he succumbs to the madness and becomes Dr. Jekyll’s next lab experiment.
HERA
Ummm, Officer Eiffel?
EIFFEL
(Sigh) What is it, Hera?
HERA
Commander Minkowski wanted me to let you know that you’re patching everything through the comms again and that you aren’t supposed to be answering the question yourself.
EIFFEL
What do you mean I’m not supposed to be answering the question?
HERA
Well, if you turned the flashcard over, you’d see there’s already an answer provided.
EIFFEL
You mean I’m not even answering questions? I’m just reading?
HERA
Yes, Officer Eiffel, that is exactly what I mean.
EIFFEL
Then what the heck is the point? Why am I reading someone else’s answers to Houston’s question?
HERA
Apparently, it’s in the spirit of the season! Happy Wolfmas!
EIFFEL
Wolfmas? What the heck is that?
HERA
Admittedly, I… have absolutely no idea. There’s no holiday called Wolfmas in my memory banks.
EIFFEL
So is this a stupid holiday Command came up with?
HERA
I’m not even sure it’s supposed to be a holiday.
EIFFEL
Then what am I even doing??? If this is another stupid Empty Man situation, I swear-
MINKOWSKI
Eiffel! Just shut up and finish the transmission!
EIFFEL
(Mutters) She speaks… (Louder) Fine, Commander! (Sigh)
Well, folks. Seems like I don’t win the daily double. (Officer Eiffel imitates a buzzer sound) The correct answer is, drum roll please! (Silence)
Fine, no drum roll. (mumbled) You could’ve at least jumped in to do that, Hera.
(Louder) Anyway! This lovely card given to me by Command says the true answer to the age old question is: “I started listening to Wolf 359 because it was recommended to me by a post on tumblr. I had just finished catching up to Welcome to Night Vale and needed something new to listen to while waiting for the next episode. I found a long podcast recommendation list with a lot of cool shows and Wolf 359 sounded the most interesting, so I started with it. I fell in love immediately.” (Note: Officer Eiffel sounds confused) Wait a minute… What does this even mean?
It sounds like someone’s been listening to our logs besides Goddard, but they think it’s a podcast? That’s crazy! Hera!
HERA
Yes, Officer Eiffel?
EIFFEL
Do you understand this? Like at all?
HERA
I will admit, it is a bit confusing… Maybe Goddard Futuristics made your logs public record?
EIFFEL
(Mumbled) I doubt they’d do that. (Louder) Maybe someone hacked into their records and released them online? But then why is Command allowing that? Obviously, they know something’s up.
HERA
They did make you read this stuff.
EIFFEL
Exactly! But what’s this about?
HERA
I’m not sure, Officer Eiffel, but I wouldn’t worry about it. A few extra people hearing your logs won’t hurt.
EIFFEL
Are you sure?
HERA
I think so? I don’t see how it could negatively affect us, at least.
EIFFEL
(Note: Officer Eiffel sounds unsure.) If you say so, Hera…
HERA
Either way, look on the bright side! You finished the transmission! I think that’s the first time I’ve seen you finish a mission objective in one go.
EIFFEL
Oh, shut up! (Silence) But, yeah. You have a point. (A sigh of relief) I’m done with this stupid recording! I can go back to slacking without Minkowski breathing down my neck!
HERA
I wouldn’t call it slacking around Commander Minkowski, Officer Eiffel.
EIFFEL
Oh, whatever. She can’t get onto me about that. (A smug chuckle) I did everything she asked me to. I deserve a break!
HERA
(Sigh) Sure you do, Eiffel, sure.
EIFFEL
Hey! I do! (Silence)
Fine! Whatever you say, Hera.
Well, that’s all folks! Thankfully, I’ll probably never have to do something this stupid again so without further ado, this is Communications Officer Doug Eiffel of the Hephaestus crew signing off. Goodnight, everybody!
#wolfmas2018#how does one center text on tumblr?#I had so much fun doing this!#I think this was my first writing thing I've done for fun in a while#like#6 months?#Probably been longer tbh#either way#let's see if I can keep this up for 25 days!

So before we jump into it just gonna say hi to Hernan looks like he made it here. How you doing, man?
I’m good, man. Sorry about the slight delay. I was in a meeting that runs late. It was supposed to be five minutes by the end of being seven. That’s all right. You’re gonna get detention, but I hate that man. I hate that. So anyway, happy to be here. Awesome. All right. Well, that’s about it. Let’s get into it unless anybody else had I think we got one more thing.

If you’re struggling or needs help with that just hit me up in the Facebook group. The semantic mastermind Facebook group and yeah, that’s it. Awesome.
Hell of a deal.
Definitely.
I guess. Let’s get into it. Bradley. You’re good to go. Yeah, I’m good. Now let me grab the screen. You know, I’m still fighting through. I got a new PC last week and boy, and I remember why over six years, I kept my old one for six years because it’s a nightmare, transferring everything from, you know, one PC to another just takes forever. It’s been a week and I’m still not done.
So I got a question for you, Bradley. And hopefully, some other people can relate. And I know the answer, like from her nine, because I know he plays PC games. And so I bet you know, he nerds out on like putting together his PC or like getting a new one. Do you do that to Bradley? Or is it has it always just been like a work machine for you? And it just works. Okay. So like I transition because I used to, like, nerd out, you know, I’m like researching and doing all this and building my own PC. And now I’m like, dreading upgrading, because I’m like, Oh, my God, I don’t want to deal with having to like download programs and do this. And I never understood people who were like that before. Now. That’s to me, like one of the things I’m like, shit, I’m getting old. I know. Yeah.
Well, I used, I used this program, but it’s a company called Laplink. It’s called PC mover. And I use the professional version, which like 60 bucks or something like that. But it was great. It had it was overnight, it transferred everything from one PC to the other, all programs and everything, but you still got to log back into the programs, and then kind of like reset them or re-register them and all that kind of stuff. So and then obviously, some of the settings aren’t all the same, but it definitely helped. You know, before I’ve always done that shit manually, and it would literally take days of doing nothing but working on the PC like the transfer stuff. And this made everything a lot easier. But it’s still you know, I’m still going in and have to modify things. Do you know what I mean? So
that’s cool. What was that called? Again?
It’s called a sea mover by Laplink.
Awesome. I’m gonna write it down. It’s pretty cool. What saved me a ton of time. It lets me transfer overnight. And it took about six hours for it to transfer everything from one to another. But once it was done as I said, it definitely sped up the process still working my way through some bugs, but it was definitely a lot easier.
Sure. What rockets Did you get like that’s the curious question on everybody’s mind? The what? What kind of rocket computer did you get? Well, I got a good one was 64 megabytes RAM because that was my biggest issue. I use a browser to still, God forbid. And when I got a shit ton of Chrome profiles open, it slows my computer way down. I went from 32 gigabytes ram to 64 and it’s um, it’s definitely better. It’s faster. There are no questions.
I got a recommendation for you there right there. Was that is a fucking VPS man? Now to float the whole thing of like, 500 open tabs.
I just bought a new PC, so I don’t need to do that shit. So you can even do this like a week Chromebook and run that operation.
moving into question.
There we go. Alright, guys, we’re gonna get into it. Now. We’re gonna start with chassis that GIF anyways, maybe we’ll get to it. Keep going.
Which one?
Nevermind, just keep going.
I don’t see it.
Okay.
Is It Okay To Add A Company’s Wiki Page To Its Schema Data In SEO Ultimate?
All right. Anyway, moving on. Chad says Hey, guys. Well, it looks like I don’t remember answering this one last week. So we’ll go with this one. If a company has a Wikipedia page or something similar, like Crunchbase Is it a good idea to include it as a link in things schema using something like SEO ultimate for the name of the brand and variations of the brand to help with branded SERPs? Or is this a stupid idea and better to just put in sameas schema? Yeah, I mean, I’m I don’t fully understand the question or what you’re attempting to do. So if you want to clarify that, I’ll try to give you a better answer. But honestly just put it in the same as schema. That’s sameas schemas. Actually, it’s for your primary social accounts. However, we’ve had for years now we’ve been listing all of what we did, we feel are the most powerful properties that are, you know, branded profiles for a project to brand a company. And so I’ll use what I consider to be the most powerful citations, so to speak, or places where I have a profile, so it’ll be the main social media accounts, YouTube, Twitter, Tumblr, or excuse me, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, you know, Instagram, if you have it, I typically don’t use Instagram, but so the main social media accounts and then, like the Google Site GMB website, if you’re if you have a GMB the GMB map URL, you can also use the hash map designation and schema for that also, but I also put that in same as the Google site if you got an SEO shield, which you should press advantage organization page part of the SEO shield, right. And then also, I’ll put in top-level citations, if it’s for local, I’ve talked about how to do this many times. But typically, what I’ll do is just go to Google and search for the company name plus the phone number and then whatever listings or citations show up or any sort of profiles period that show up in the top two pages of Google search results for that brand plus phone number. By the way, if the top two pages are filled up with a lot of pages from the company domain, right from the, from that entities domain, then you can always put in a modifier like minus, then the domain name right the domain itself, so you know, mydomain.com, so minus the minus sign, then my domain.com, and it will strip those from the results that it shows. So again, I’ll do a search for the brand name plus phone number. And then I’ll do the minus domain comm as part of it, and then whatever shows up on those top two pages, I’ve just put those in my same as click through and make sure that they’re relevant. You know, if there’s not really any data on the page, then it’s unnecessary to put it in the schema, same as schema. But if it’s got the name, address, and phone number listed, and preferably with the link back to the site, and I will put that back in, or I’ll put that in the same schema. So again, top-level social media, the top syndication, network profiles, not all of them, but I put the top ones in like blogger, Tumblr, WordPress, for example, about me is another good one, press advantage, Google Site GMB website, GMB map share URL, or preferably the CI d equals URL not to share URL, and then the top two pages of citations or when I say citations, I don’t just mean structured citations like business directories, I mean, any anything that Google determines in the top two pages for that type of a search, why I just do the top two pages, because those are the ones that Google thinks are the most important, or the most authoritative, that are referencing your project site, right the brand itself. So that’s why I just stick with those. I don’t spam it to death. I know some people that will put everything that they ever create for their brand and same as, and it’s like super long. And I don’t think that that hurts it. But I just think that’s overkill. And there’s some sort of diminishing return there. So I like I said, I just stick with the top-level ones. And that’s basically it and typically gets really good results. And that can all be done with sameas schema. I wouldn’t attempt any of these other things that well first of all, I’m not 100% sure what you were asking, but you run the risk of ambiguating the entity if you start messing with it, so that’s why sameas is a particular designation that works well for that kind of thing. comments on that, guys, I know. It’s probably gonna be mostly me today.
How Do You Get The Twitter SEO Profile Addon When You Purchase The SEO Power Shield?
Nope, no, man. Okay, looks good. All right, moving on. So Chad says, Hey, guys, I’m looking to purchase a done for you SEO power shield. I noticed that with our ys reloaded package, there’s a Twitter SEO profile add on option since the SEO power shield includes an RYS stack? Is the Twitter SEO profile included? And if not, how do I go about adding that before or during checkout? Last thing? Fuck Google? It’s funny. Marco would be proud jazz? Um, that’s a really good question. Honestly, I know, I don’t typically use the Twitter SEO add on. And it’s just because I don’t really like Twitter. I know it’s good for SEO and all that. I’ve never been a fan of Twitter. So it’s just something I don’t use. If it’s something that you want to add to an SEO power shield, and that that does not come with it. Okay. If you’re ordering just a drive stack, then you can have that as an add on right? Or you can buy that package with the Twitter SEO and the SEO power show because it’s not something that people commonly purchased the Twitter SEO network, then we don’t include that in the SEO PowerSuite. Because again, those are like the bundled services, which people mostly purchase, right. So that’s the SEO shield packages are bundles that are the most commonly purchased bundles, so to speak. So if you want that add on, I would just contact support and ask how they want to handle that because I don’t think we have a that’s kind of just customization but I’m sure that support will accommodate you just contact [email protected] and tell them what you’re trying to do and they’ll get you sorted I’m sure. Okay.
Would Creating Online Tools Like WhoIs Checker Inadvertently Benefit Competitors As Their Domains Will Be Crawled?
Okay, the next question is from Pierce he says, Hey guys looking to build out some online tools for my web hosting business like an online who is checker, etc. which will create new domains with info about different domains. With info about different domains, okay, with doing this inadvertently benefit my competitors as their domains may get crawled and listed on the Whois tool. Won’t there be any links going to the domains just information like brand name image of the homepage and who is registration? I don’t fully understand that question Is anybody else? You guys probably weren’t even paying attention. Were you? I know I don’t fully understand this question. So we try one more time. Hey, guys, looking to build out some online tools for my web hosting business like an online who is checker, which will create new domains with info about different domains. I don’t understand the point of that.
I’m just wondering if that’s like, sorry, I don’t know the right terminology for this, but like you’re creating pages on the fly, like as people query it, you’re like, hey, let’s find out about this page. And then it builds a page with the information that, you know, in, like, builds it on the fly, maybe, but probably not a different domain. I mean, it could be a subdomain, but it probably is a page, but I don’t know.
Yeah. Yeah, I don’t fully understand the question. I don’t understand what creating new domains with info about different domains means. So just go, let’s assume he’s talking about subdomain. So like, every time someone does a query, he goes to go to his site, to go to domain.com, and say, Hey, tell me about semantic mastery. And it did some information on semantic mastery. And it creates a page called semantic mastery.is domain calm, and it shows some information about it. And just as of right, then that page is created on the fly and the domain exists.
As their domains may get crowded, listed on. Yeah, okay. If that’s what you’re, and that that was a great interpretation, Adam, because that may very well be what he’s trying to do. And I’m just going to assume that that is the case. For now. Maybe there’s some clarification down further?
No. All right. Well, I’m gonna run with what Adams interpretation of that question was, if that were the case, then, you know, that’s a good question. I don’t know 100%? No, if you’re not linking back to the competitor domain, then most likely not I mean, it’s still considered a citation. Right? If you’re listing information about the brand, the domain itself, right, then it could be considered a citation, which would be you know, remember, a citation doesn’t have to include a link, it’s just the publishing of entity information, typically name, address and phone number, right NAP. Sometimes the link sometimes without but just publishing that, even if it’s not hyperlinked is not clickable, none of that can count as a citation that’s more beneficial for local projects than it is for like national or global or whatever. But it still is it can help with SEO. But since if there’s no link whatsoever, you’re likely it’s likely that it wouldn’t, you know, it wouldn’t move the needle and is what I’m saying for your competitors. So I don’t think that that would be a problem. And again, that’s just me assuming that that is what you’re trying to do is create a subdomain page anytime somebody doesn’t create a query because I don’t really fully understand the question. So anyway, that said, hopefully, that answers your question. I don’t think it would be an issue if it’s just listing like text-based data about that domain. But again, still not 100% sure why you would want to do that.
Will You Get Topics Related To Law When You Submit A Deep Keyword Research For Lawyers?
So anyway, there he says, Lanre. I think I got it right this time, man. Landre, right. I think so. Anyways, if I need to do a keyword for divorce lawyers, if I need to do keywords, or key okay for divorce lawyers, do I need to submit for keyword research for lawyers or divorce lawyers? Okay, so if you’re going to order a keyword research package because I’m assuming that’s what you’re asking if you’re going to order a keyword search package from MGYB. for divorce lawyers do I submit for keyword research, for lawyers, or for divorce lawyers? Well, if you’re going specifically after divorce lawyers, then if you were to just submit lawyers as your keyword, then it’s going to pull back divorce lawyers and personal injury attorneys and family law and, you know, criminal attorneys, and it’s going to pull all that back, which would be not relevant to your project, right. So if your project is all about divorce lawyers, then I would use divorce lawyers or attorneys, you know, they’re kind of interchangeable as your keyword. And then they’ll start pulling it from there and extracting all of the keywords, you know, subsets or theme sub-themes from divorce lawyers. And I’m kind of compiling and optimizing the keyword file for you that way if it’s the, you know, the top whatever the top-level keyword packages, so that’s, that’s what I would suggest because remember, if you’re going with the broader term, you’re going to get broader results too, which aren’t going to be relevant to your product or your project, excuse me. So I would go with divorce lawyers. Okay, don’t include any local modifiers though. We don’t need that for the deep keyword research.
If I submit for deep keyword research for lawyers, will I be able to select various areas of law to build my site or Well, I have to build a law site that covers various ways I’d be able to select various areas of law to build my site? Or will I have to build a law site that covers various areas of law Okay, um, all right, I won’t be able to select various areas of law to build my site? Yeah, I mean, as I said, if you go with the lawyers like for D word, if you just went with lawyers, right, which is very broad, then it’s going to return everything. And there will be suggested silos and all that, which then, you know, you can determine whether you want to use them or not. It’s up to your, you know, what, what your project is about? Because you, if you again, if you go with lawyers, there’s going to be all kinds of environmental law, immigration lawyers, there’s going to be all kinds of stuff in there, that is probably not going to be relevant to you. I mean, again, I don’t know what you mentioned in the previous question, divorce lawyers. So I’m assuming that you want to be optimized more for that. more specialized right. So I would go with just divorce lawyers. But again, if you want to do a more general type of law website that covers multiple subcategories for attorneys or lawyers, then you want to go with the broader term. Does that make sense? And then you can just select which, you know, silos or suggested silos that you want to use. And again, they’re suggested you still have to go through and, you know, stack the content or the keywords, the way that you want them to be, we do our best to give you you know, things and keyword groups or keyword themes, which would be suggested silos essentially. But it’s still up to you to go through and actually, you know, choose which ones of those keywords are fully relevant to your project, and to select which ones you’re going to create content for or optimized content for is that if that makes sense? Okay. All right. Moving on. hopefully, that answered that question. It was a little bit of a difficult question, I guess.
Is It Wise To Point Tier 2 Links From MGYB Or Other Sources To Bit.ly Linking Back To The Money Site?
Christopher says, Hey, SM crew, when it comes to pop pushing power behind links, is it wise? Is it a wise idea to point tier two legs from MGYB? or other sources to Bitly? linking back to the money site? Or is it better to direct somewhere else? Okay, Christopher, that’s a good question. But there are a few things that I would recommend. So tier two links from MGYB or other sources to Bitly. Okay. Bitly, I don’t recommend using Bitly for shortening links, your money sites, and stuff, because this has been a known issue with Bitly. Now, it may have changed, it may be updated. And they don’t do this anymore. I don’t know. I just know from years ago, I’m talking like, you know, six, seven years ago, Bitly was infamous for. They’re supposed to be 301 redirect URLs, short shorteners, right, which creates a 301 redirect, but for whatever reason, and there was no like, rhyme, or reason behind it. Bentley will sometimes convert some Bitly redirects to three Oh, twos, right, which is it, it doesn’t allow PageRank to pass. And if that’s the case, then building links to Bitly shortened URLs that have been tagged as 302, you know, have been converted to 302 redirects, then you lose all of any potential benefit from the link building to that short link is completely lost at that point. So we have for years and years, we stopped using Bitly for short URLs other than like, when you’re using them for SEO purposes, I use Bitly all the time in like internal documents and things like that. Because it’s not SEO related, right? It’s but when I’m doing when I’m creating redirects for SEO purposes, I don’t like to use Bitly. Because of that very reason. There’s sometimes you’ll look at Bit.ly links and through like a redirect checker and it’ll be a 301. Other times you’ll look at Bitly links, and there’ll be 3.0s in Bitly just does that on their own, at least they used to again, it’s been many years since I’ve really tested any of that because I just stopped using Bitly years ago because of that reason. So I don’t know if that’s still the case or not. But I know that at some point, they were doing that and so it made Bitly not a good tool for SEO purposes. That said, Remember, MGYB has a link shortener, right. And that’s why we use it because we do a lot of what you’re asking about here. For example, if you go to mgyb.co/s, which is the link shortener, you’ll see what I’m talking about, okay.
And that was not what I wanted to do. Right there, mgyb.co/s is the link shortener. So you can sign up, you know, you can have a free account or you can pay for a paid account, which is very, very inexpensive and gives you some additional functionality. But that’s part of the reason when we deliver like an SEO shield, for example, all of the five links that were included in the order originally like your syndication, network profiles, then all of the files and folders that are created throughout the building of the drive stack. All of those links also get shortened. And if you take a look at like for example, the links sheet That comes with an SEO shield order. You’ll see on the so the Google Sheet when I say sheet, that’s what I mean. You’ll see on there, there will be all of the URLs listed for all the files and folders in the drive stack in one column. And then in the column to the right of it, there will be all the short URLs that are MGYB. Seo short, shortened URLs. And the reason why we do that is that, you know, with all the link building that gets done to drive stacks and everything else, people will also submit link building, you know, the target, the mgyb.co short URLs as target URLs. And so over time, this has gotten really, really powerful. In fact, there’s, it’s funny, but oftentimes, the MGYB.co short URLs will rank in search results as opposed to the unfurled or the target destination URLs. So like, for example, Google, My Maps, my map URL, typically I see for a lot of the projects that I have SEO shields done when the mind maps are ranking. It’s the MGYB.co short URL, as opposed to the actual Google URL. Does that make sense? that’s showing in the search results. So if you want to use a link shortener use ours, because that’s specifically why we set it up was for that reason, and there is some benefit to that. Now, remember, there’s a little bit of PageRank, that drops through redirects, right, you lose a little bit of loss PageRank loss through every redirect, I don’t know what that number is. It’s, you know, a small percentage, like 10 to 15%, or something like that. And I don’t know that that’s completely accurate anyways. So there is a little bit of a loss there. But there is some benefit to it as well because again, our short URL link URL, and probably all the big ones Bitly probably has a shit ton of power built to it. But if it arbitrarily converts it to a 302, you’re not going to benefit from that. Does that make sense? So there are other options out there, there’s ours, then there are other options out there that won’t arbitrarily assign a 302 redirect? Okay. That’s a good question.
What Other Places Where We Can Secure Citations For Local SEO Clients Aside From Yelp And Manta?
Okay, moving on. George, the SEO, aside from places like Yelp Manta and other directories and press releases, where are some other places we can see secure psychic citations, excuse me, for local SEO clients? Um, well, you know, there’s the normal business directories. But one of the things out here, I’ll, I’ll go through a little exercise with you guys. And this works really well for stuff to remember, there are a few things that you guys should be doing for citations, besides the standard citations, which everybody and their brother is on, you should be looking for niche-specific directories. So like industry-specific directories, let me pull this up. Industry directories and also local directories. Right. So what I mean by that, so for example, if I, you know, Tree Service stuff is what I do. So if I say tree service business directory, go through here and see. I don’t understand what that means. Anyways, look at that later. Okay, so what I would do is go just do a search for you know, your industry business directory, and just start clicking through and see which ones you can get listed on, some are going to be paid, but many of them will be free, and compile a list. If there are similar or tangent industries, that would also be good places to get listed. So for example, a tree service business directory, I could get listed on as many of these in here that I could find, that makes sense that, you know, again, some are going to be paid some of they’re going to are going to be free. just compile a list of industry-specific directories. then like I said, look for a tangent market or industry directories. So for example, I could look for landscaping, business directories, right, those could be some of the other ones that I could get listed on because of tree services. Oftentimes, landscapers also provide tree services, and oftentimes tree services also provide landscaping services. Right? That makes sense. So that that’d be another word one, something else for in the tree service industry would be like maybe land clearing. Let’s do this. Right. So just you guys understand what I’m saying. Right? I was and I don’t know, because land clearing isn’t probably searched enough on its own for it to have specific directories, maybe it does. I’d have to do some research. But my point is just going through and try to compile a list of what could be industry-related or somewhat related industry-specific directories that you can try to attempt to get listed on so that’s going to help okay for talking relevancy, but then for location, relevancy, or geographic relevancy, then you could look for local business directories. So for example, if I was going to look for, you know, say, Fairfax, Virginia, I’m just going to use that or Richmond, Virginia, which is the capital of Virginia. So let me do that, let’s say Richmond, VA, or Richmond, Virginia, Business Directory. And then I would just go right on through here and just start clicking through and opening up, that’s richmond.com, the Chamber of Commerce, obviously, that’d be another good one. There, all of these different try to put it back over there. This is this is richmond.com. This is the Chamber of Commerce 804 area.com, Richmond gov.com, you might even be able to get listed on like the local municipality or local government site, Richmond light pages in like all of these does that make sense, you just go through and look for your city business directories. And then you could also even look for not just your city, but your state, right, you could go like, in my case, Virginia business directory, and then go in and start getting listed on those. So there you go, you’ve got three additional options right there, something else you could look for is local blogs, it doesn’t have to just be directories. You could also look out for local blogs, local event, local events would be something else that you might be able to get listed on. So you just got to click through and do a little bit of research. But guys, these types of citations are actually way more powerful than the big ones like the big national directories because those are general business directories that cover all types of business categories. And all over the United States, sometimes even more. So those are there’s a place for those. There’s no question. But I found for SEO purposes, you get better results from industry-specific and local business directories. And even you know, state business directories are also helpful. Does that make sense? Does anybody want to comment on that?
And nothing, man. Okay.
Should I Use A Gsite Or Buy A Domain For Local Service Lead Gen Site?
bb’s up? Hey, guys, should I use a G site Or buy a domain for local service lead gen, please explain for short term and long term strategy. Okay. Um, you know, Rob, he does everything with just a G site, he doesn’t do any, like self-hosted sites at all. And he’s, you know, he kills it. There’s, I like to still build a brand with a self-hosted site. For the most part, if I’m doing a standalone GMB lead gen, that isn’t going to be like some brand that I plan to expand, then, which I try not to do that anymore at all. If I’m going to start building lead gen assets, I try to always create a brand that I’m going to use across multiple locations. Okay, because, as we’ve talked about many, many times before, now, you don’t have to have a self-hosted site for that, though, right? You can create it and here’s the thing BB. Whatever route you go, whether you want to self-hosted site, right, so by domain for that, or just use Google sites and drive stacks, you know, the SEO shield, essentially, without a self-hosted site, you can do it, either way, it doesn’t matter. It’s up to you. I tend to like to have a WordPress site still because it gives me additional functionality. But I know that you can do it with just a G site. What my recommendation is, is that you target just a brand on the primary g site, if you want to go that route where you’re you don’t have to buy domains, you don’t have to have a hosting account. You don’t have to set up and maintain or manage WordPress, you can do it with just a Google site. But what I recommend is instead of localizing the Google site, for the initial, the initial one, you want to set it up as a brand, right? So essentially, let’s just call it Bs, lead gen, right? We’re gonna call it that. So your first your G site and your SEO shield, I would set it up on to where it’s optimized for specifically the brand. That’s it. All right, so that you order the SEO power field for Bibi’s lead gen. So that’s the brand so that Google site would be sites.google.com slash views, slash Bs, lead gen. And I wouldn’t add or associate it with a particular location. At that point, if there’s going to be a standalone, then you could do that. You’re right, you’d want to be maybes lead gen for whatever you’re sitting in, right? So plus city. But if you’re going to create a brand out of it, which is what I recommend and create, that you can expand from multiple locations, then I would do it for just the brand at the top level. And then for every location. Even if you’re starting off with just one location, I would create that as an inner page of the G site. So it’s optimized, you know, has it like basically a location page and inner page on the sight as well as an ROI is expansion. White, which you order that an mg y b as well, which would be optimized for that particular location. And then for each subsequent location that you add, it gets another ROI is expansion stack, or ROI is expansion. Stack expansion, excuse me, whatever you get what I’m saying I would have an expansion for each individual location. And each location would be optimized for that, you know, whatever your primary keyword is plus the location. That’s the way I do it. And the reason why is because you can really build that entity up that brand name up, so that initially, it’s all going to be the same. But over time, as you add more like you continue to link build into it and everything else, it’s going to start to gain authority. And each time you want to add another location expand to a new area, then when you add another ArcGIS expansion, another inner, you know, inner page on the G site, it’s going to instantly benefit from all of the power that’s been accrued into that branded stack, and G site. Does that make sense? So initially, your workload is going to be the same. In fact, it might even be a little bit higher initially, because instead of optimizing the drive stack and the G site homepage for a particular location, you optimize it for the brand only. And then you have to have an expansion to target the specific location. So upfront, it might be a little bit more work just a tiny bit, but over time, it’s going to pay off, it’s going to produce a significant payoff, because each time you add a niche, another location is going to instantly benefit from the power of crude and will be a hell of a lot easier to get results from then starting over from scratch each time. So that makes sense. So that’s why I prefer to do it that way. I mean, I still like to have a WordPress site, guys unless like, as I said, it’s just a standalone, like a test project or something like that. But if it’s something that I plan on expanding, I like to have a WordPress site. But that’s just personal preference. As I said, Rob does everything with just g sites and just crushes it. So it’s up to you how you want to handle that. Okay.
Should You Use A Branded Or A Service Name For A Local Business Lead Gen?
What name should we use for local business Legion branded or service name included or end this limits locality? wanting to know if that will rank faster? Yeah. I don’t recommend Well, I reckon Semantic Mastery has been talking about branding for years, we got away from using EMD his exact match domains A long time ago, I always go for a brand. There can be a partial keyword in the brand name a lot of tree contractors do that. Like, you know, though, a lot of tree contractors will have the city name and their, their, their company name or, or Tree Service, obviously, what we’ll be at, which is a keyword tool. But I prefer to go with branded domains and brands, you know, I don’t like keyword stuffing the name. Why? Because think about this, guys. A lot of the times company names are like, especially for service contractors is really just a keyword. Right? It’s like, again, like call pepper Tree Service. If I was going to run with that as a name, right, I live in Cole pepper, called pepper Tree Service. That’s a keyword. So it’s hard to make it a brand. Because there’s ambiguation right off the bat because it’s technically a keyword. Right? It could also be a brand, but you have to overcome the fact that it��s a keyword in Google’s eyes to be recognized as a brand. Does that make sense? So you’re starting from an entity-based SEO standpoint, you’re starting at a disadvantage when you try to go after a generic or keyword-based type entity name. You’re better off going with something unique, that’s branded, it can have a partial match keyword in it, that’s okay. But my point is like I wouldn’t, especially if it’s going to be like you plan on expanding outside of a particular location that I wouldn’t want to include a location name, a specific city name in the brand name, because then you’d be pigeonholing yourself or limiting yourself to that one location. Right? So hopefully that makes sense.
Can You Target A Keyword That Is Searched On Google Even If It’s Not Understandable To Humans?
Can you target a keyword that is searched on Google, but there’s no meaning of it for humans, and they will not understand it. Yeah, sure, you can. That’s how a lot of people do single variable SEO tests. Again, why would you want to do that BB, you always ask these theoretical questions. And I have to ask you why I don’t understand why you would want to target a keyword that is searched on Google, but there is no meaning for it to humans. I’m not sure what you would want to do that for but yeah, sure you can. But no meaning to humans. Why? Like I don’t understand what the point of that would be. Anyway.
Let’s say that I want to change your phone number. I have a business and they’re one place that does not live. And there there’s one place that does not let me do that will putting on another place old number.
And the new number and company name. Will Google understand that the other place was a mistake. Not No. I don’t. And again, I don’t fully understand that question either but
No, because here’s the thing, if you’ve got an old phone number that’s outdated, and it’s published on the web, you know, all those places that are published, how you’d have to update all of them is my point. That’s why it’s better if you’ve got like, for example, NAP errors, right? We have data inaccuracy is for NAP for a particular business, it’s better, it’s wiser, it’s more effective to go clean up or correct. Incorrect citation data than it is to start publishing new citations with the correct data. Because all you’re doing at that point is diluting bad data. Right? You get weight. And trust me, I’ve, I’ve over the years, I’ve dealt with a lot of clients that had significant NAP issues. When I when they came to me, and I’ve learned over the years, the best thing to do is not start building news. I mean, starting to build new citations is going to happen naturally anyway, from the content marketing that we do. But the best way to get results from you know maps pack issues or maps ranking issues when there are any NAP data issues inconsistencies. The best thing to do the most effective thing to do is to update existing citations with correct data, which for that the best service that I’ve ever used is Loganix’s service. So if you go to semanticmastery.com/loganix, that’s L-o-g-a-n-i-x. It’s going to take you to their service, and they have a citation cleanup service, which I think 500 bucks might even be 600 bucks. It’s really good, though. It’s the best one. I’ve done this a number of times for clients over the years. And their services. I’ve used a bunch of services to do citation cleanups. And I’m telling you there is by far the most thorough service period. And to this day, every time I got a project or new client that has nav issues, the first thing I include the cost of this service, right in the proposal, when I get a new client, and typically I mark it up, and I also purchase through their account Loganix account that I set up for them through my own affiliate link as a Loganix affiliate, so that I get a markup Plus, I think it’s only 10% Commission, but I get a 10% commission as well. And then Loganix does all the work, and they’ve got their citation cleanup service, which is really, really good. Okay. So if their page loaded a little bit quicker, I’d show you that. Let’s go here, local SEO. And then they have some citation cleanup right here. And it looks like it starts at 497. And it takes about they say a six-week campaign, and they typically will run it for eight to 10 weeks, though. And it’s multiple stages, and it works really, really well. Okay.
How Would You Deal With Existing Social Profiles And Drive Stacks If Your Client Decides To Rebrand?
Jose says Hi there, say you have a client that decides to rebrand and merge multiple websites together or change over to a completely new brand for the domains, I would throw one. everything over to the right place. But how would you deal with social profiles and drive stacks? Would you rebuild from scratch? don’t want to waste link juice from the old stacks? Ooh, that’s a really good question. Um, well, with the drive stacks, remember, if you’re wanting the target the original site URLs to the new one, that you consolidate it, everything right, so the other domains that were now all redirected to the new one. So what I’m saying is that drive stacks are going to be targeting, if you had drive stacks built for these other brands or these other domains, right? That was pointing to those domains. And now those domains are 3012, the new money site, then all of that link flow is still going to be going through that redirect to the money site. The problem that I see with that, though, is it’s not from it from a link juice point, there’s no problem but from the data point and the information like the entity information, right, if you’ve got stuff out there from older brands that have now been consolidated into something new, and you’ve got those still remember on SEO from an SEO juice, right, so like a link equity standpoint, it’s flowing through the 301 redirects to your new domain, your new brand, it’s fine, you’re still gonna benefit from that. But you could ambiguous the entity information of the new entity because all of that is flowing from previously published stuff that had old entity info on it. So again, if you think about it from an SEO juice point, it’s fine. It’s still all flows through. But at the same time, I would worry about having all that other published data about an entity that no longer exists because it’s been consolidated in the new one. So that’s a really good question.
I’m not sure how I would handle that, I understand not wanting to lose all that power, but without, without going in and you know, editing the file, like the text and stuff like that on the phone, the files, essentially, the G sites and stuff too. You know, mentioned the entity information like NAP, for example, name, address phone number of the new entity, then I would be concerned that that might ambiguous the data, which in my case, and I’ve done that in the past, I’ve just killed the folders like just set them to, you know, not know, not public, so that the SEO juice will still flow, but they’re not, you know, being indexed and all that kind of stuff. So I don’t know, that’s the way that I’ve done it in the past was I’ve just set that in the folders too, you know, private, essentially. But go in, but again, it’s either that or kill it altogether, but I understand not wanting to waste the juice, but at the same time, if you want to, if you want to keep the public, then you’d have to go in and actually edit all and from what I know, I would want to go in and edit all of the, you know, published data about the old entity and update it with the new and that would be a shit ton of work. There’s a lot of there’s no question about that. That’s how I would do it. What I rebuild from scratch Yeah, I would have a new drive stack built for the new brand new consolidated brand. Absolutely. It but I understand not wanting to waste all the power built to the previous ones. So that’s about the only thing I could think of to do with that would be to you know, in the past, like I said, I’ve just set them to not public and kept them but they weren’t, you know, indexable or killed the folders entirely. Which sucks because then you lose all that juice, but it is what it is. Okay.
How Are You Managing Freelancers When You Start To Grow Your Team?
Jays up. He says, How are you guys managing freelancers, writers, Link builders, etc. When do you start to grow your team? Are you just using something like up work with teams? Or something better? Yeah, I mean, I, I just my team has only two people now. Well, I’ve got bloggers, but they’re, I don’t really manage them much. I’ve got two assistants that work for me on you know, Monday through Friday, though. And I just manage everything through slack. We’ve got a CRM that we use, Well, a couple of CRMs. I’ve got a high level for agency staff. And then I use a different CRM for real estate stuff. And then I’ve got slack channels that I manage everybody in, you know what Adam would be the better one to answer this one.
Yeah, I think it’s a this is this could be its own, like, full-on conversation. So I’ll try to keep this somewhat short. But I think it depends on what your needs are, like, Don’t go looking for a problem to solve before you have one. So if you’re feeling the crunch, and it sounds like j, you’re maybe looking at you’ve got a small team and you’re growing, you know, if it’s not working, then now’s a good time, you got the pain point. So I would start simple though, like for me right now I use ClickUp. And I work, you know, between full time, part-time and contractors have had like seven or eight people from different groups. So that’s one there’s a lot of these services like ClickUp Monday, trying to think of other ones, but you know, those are two good examples, you can go and check out and they usually have some sort of free tier, but they can get complicated and you can spend a lot of time figuring them out. So Trello is definitely a good place where you could get started with the simple like maybe you have one list of ideas or things or templates and then you have one have in progress and one has finished or needs to review something like that just to get you in the mindset of delegating more, because as you build up your team, your time should shift towards more effectively delegating and doing a very good job and spending a lot of time on that upfront so that you don’t spend as much time doing or as much time fixing because you gave someone shooting instructions and I say that because I’m you know growing pains myself going from a couple of people to more you know, shrinking, growing, you know, seeing that again and again. So just make sure that you have an actual need for this don’t do more than what you need, but be aware of what your options are and stay simple rather than get complicated fast.
That was a good answer. And I like what you preface everything with is don’t look for a solution or don’t try to find a solution for a problem you don’t have yet I’ve tried Monday and click up in some of those and you know I quit because exactly what you said you they there’s so much stuff that you can do with those and there are different ways that you can build them and all that different you know, you can go down a rabbit hole and get lost and just tweaking the platforms and so you know, my point and trying to use them was to be more efficient. But then I found that it was taking so much time just learning how to use it and setting it up and all that kind of stuff and working it in you know creating workflows and all that that you What’s working for me what a small a very lean team like I have is just something super simple, which is just slack. And I’ve calendar notifications. And then we have tasks and stuff that my CRM will automatically assign to, you know, the appropriate, you know, a person for projects and things like that. So I use just those tools were, which were things that we were already familiar with, I didn’t see the need, after trying like Monday and click up, I saw that it just was overkill for my lean operation. So, you know, do what’s easy and simple. And, you know, if you’re going to be growing a big team, you might need to look into something like that, for sure. But just, you know, keep it I like what Adam said, is that you got to just be careful, because you’ll you could end up, you know, in an effort and in the pursuit of trying to be more efficient, you could kill your productivity. You know, yeah, it’s taken us a while, like, I’m glad I went with ClickUp. I used Monday, I switched to click up, and I’m glad I did, but it was a learning curve. And, you know, there’s a lot of time invested in that and figuring out how best to use it. So I can teach the team how best to use it. Now they’re helping out too. But you know, someone’s got to figure it out, start with the thing I will say is investing time and effort in your processes upfront. So if you go to SEOshield.com I believe Bradley, you built that in process three, right? That’s a checklist.
No, that’s an mgyb.co/process finger there that you’ll see. You gotta it’s behind an opt-in. Well, now guys, you got to submit your email to get to it. But if it’s MGYB.co/process and that was built in process Street, yes,
gotcha. Okay, yeah, I have that mixed up. And so I would just say, if you’re going to spend time somewhere, to spend it on the process side, and it doesn’t have to be paid service, could be Google Docs could be Trello. With a checklist, or, you know, if you like something sleek, like process Street, something that you can easily duplicate it’s made for this. But yeah, put your time and effort into the processes. And then you can fill out the rest of that over time. And for years, all I did for process docs was Google, Google Docs, and screencast, which I would upload to YouTube screencast recorder, and that would so for years, that’s all I did. And to this day, when I’m first developing a process, that’s where I do it the same way I record a screencast video and I type, I start typing out the steps in a Google Doc. And then once I get the rough draft of the process, done, the process documentation is done, then I transfer that now to process street, and I process Street, it’s paid, I think I only pay like 35 bucks a month or something. So it’s worth it to me. But it makes it much more polished. And you can create checklists and things like that from and embed videos directly into it. And you know, all kinds of really cool stuff that you can do with process Street. But still to this day, when I’m first starting to develop a process document, I do it with just Google Docs and a screencast video until I get my first you know, the rough first draft of it done. And it works really, really well guys, and for many years, that’s all I did was Google Drive, and YouTube, well, you know, screencasts that I would upload to YouTube. And that worked for years. So you don’t need to overcomplicate that either.
One thing I will say is two things rather a little bit of shiny object. But check out the notion as well. If you like putting stuff together yourself, that’s a great one took me a while to realize the power there. I’m using that for marketing calendars and some other stuff too. And then last but not least, if you do Google 360, the numbers 360 delegations, there’s a great article, I forget who it is or who referred me, but it’s profitfactory.com/360delegation, it’s a fantastic article on why you should be delegating and doing the processed stuff and where you should be spending your time. And you know, kind of directed my attention for. I really do need to be putting in more time. For example, the vision of a project, you know, this isn’t for a tiny little task, but for maybe a project, like what do I want? You know, what does it look like? Why are we doing this and sharing a little bit with the team? So it’s not just, hey, go build this. And this doesn’t have to be some complex product process, but sharing with the team, so they understand a little bit of the bigger picture, because anyone who’s involved in this type of stuff, probably would like and benefit from a little bit of it. And then the resources like what resources do they need? Do you already have LastPass? or whatever? are you sharing all the passwords? Do you need to record anything? Do they need software? like running through this checklist? And then going and what’s the definition of done? Do you have screenshots of what is a good done project or task is do you have an example? Do you have something they can compare it to? Is there a schedule? And he was going through this and saying, Oh wow, for myself? who’s like, Yeah, I got to spend more time upfront so that I spend less time getting involved in it down the road when it Yeah, I just told him to get started and lucked out 20% of what they needed.
Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, it sucks. Because, you know, a lot of the times it’s so much easier just to do with, you know, completed a task on your own than it is because it’s, it’s like, you know, this is only going to take me 20 minutes. And if I got to create a process, you know, process documentation, it’s gonna take three hours, you know, if to do this 20-minute task, I’ll just do the damn task. But the problem with that is, then the next time that task has to be done, guess who does it again? Do you know what I mean? And so it and I have I struggle with that all the time. Because, you know, sometimes some of the processes that I want to go develop are super complex. And I know that it’s gonna take me days, literally days to develop that process out. And so I’m like, Fuck, it’ll only take me two hours to do this, I’ll just do it myself. You know, because I don’t have the time to create this process don’t train right now. But then the next time that situation occurs again, it’s me that has to do it again. And so you know, and I’ve got invest the time again. And so it’s like, you have to constantly Wait, like, should you just go ahead and execute the task, and move on to the next thing? Or should you invest the time to develop the process, so that number one, if it’s you, that has to do it, again, you’ve got it’s done consistent, right? That the quality is consistent because you’ve got a checklist now that you can run down to make sure that you don’t miss anything, or whatever. But second, and more importantly, you can hand that off to somebody else to where you never have to do it again. And so to me, even the really complex tasks that require sometimes multiple levels of process docs, you know, I try to at least start working on those like plugging away at them a little bit at a time where I might know more complex tasks, I might say, Okay, look, I’m gonna spend 30 minutes a day or an hour a day over the next, you know, two weeks developing this, this process training. That way, I don’t feel like it has to be done today. But at the same time, I’m making progress on it a little bit at a time, if that makes sense.
So yeah, very true.
Is There Any Harm In Running Too Many PRs In A Short Period Of Time?
We’re almost out of time, let’s run through the last couple. Let’s see, we’ll say hey, gents, I have a client that wants to run one press release every three days, the manufacturing plant is supplying a range of new products, and they want to be number one, before any other supplier, I did a test with four times or four PRs in four weeks, and it worked a treat. He now wants me to push that further and do about 10 PRs in one month. These are four different products, and each has a separate landing page. Is there any harm in running this many PRs?
No, not at all. I’ve got a few projects that I typically publish eight PRs per month on and then I know Rob has done. He’s just spam the shit out. Like I say, spam, it’s not really spam, but he’s done a whole bunch of press releases in a week. Like, I don’t know what the number is, but I know he’s done multiple press releases in a week for a particular project, just to test it and it always produces good results. So no more won’t hurt you. Okay. Good question. By the way, Gordon says, Hey, guys, hope everyone is still well and COVID. Free. I believe it used to be imperative for a local business to have their site ranking on the first page of Google or at least on the second page. In order to rank in the GMB three-pack, is that currently essential? Or can their site rank way down and organic search results and you can still get a three-pack ranking by doing completely on-page GMB listing optimization. And by targeting the GMB listing itself, with press releases, citations, drive stacks, etc, from MGYB? And if so, can you do it with the middle of the road quantity and quality of reviews? Thank you very much. As usual for you. Yeah, no, I know what you mean about there’s been a connection between maps ranking and organic ranking, but I could talk for years, all I did was optimized for maps, and I didn’t give a shit at all about organic rankings, I’ve started to do more on the organic side of things now because the maps proximity filter is much tighter now it’s much narrower. So getting maps listing to rank, you know, outside of its immediate physical location area is more difficult now. So that’s why I’ve started working also on organic rankings again. Because it’s but long story short, I know what you mean about the connection between the two, but I’ve got a ton of GMB assets that the organic rankings are basically nonexistent like I just didn’t even try ever. And so some of them are ranking in the three-pack. But I’ve got you know, it’s page four before you find the first organic ranking for that, you know, keyword, for example. So I don’t know that the connection is still there. I know that I will, you know, I try to do a balance of the two now for, you know, new projects, but for older projects that all I did was focused on GMB ranking. I’ve got many, many examples of that, that the organic rankings are just really shitty, you know, page three, page four, whatever. But it’s ranking in the three-pack if that makes sense. So I don’t think it matters. Honestly. I could be wrong. They might, somebody else might have some now, if you get your organic ranking to rank well, will it help to benefit the maps ranking? I think so. But if you’re just focusing on maps, I don’t think that the organic rankings make much of a difference, at least in my own experience. Now, again, there might be some other data out there that conflicts with But for my from my own experience, it doesn’t really matter for maps rankings. That makes sense.
What’s The Best Use Of A Newly Acquired Domain With 100+ Links?
Okay, the last question is going to be from Robert and we’re going to wrap it up. Robert says, Thanks for continuing Hump Day hanging out with us all. You’re welcome. We enjoy this. If I have a money site, I just acquired a domain with 100 plus links, mostly follow links with high authority and relative anchors. Great. What’s the best way to use this newly acquired domain 301 redirects? Yeah, if it’s relevant, you can do that. I don’t like to do that a lot. But if it was a domain, where it was topically relevant to what you’re going to be forwarding it to, or 301 redirecting it to, then that means the inbound link profile from that domain that you purchased is likely relevant. Also double-check that if it’s relevant, then yes, do a 301 redirect directly to the money site. If it’s not fully irrelevant, but there’s a lot of power built to it, then what I would recommend that you do is 301. redirect that to a buffer page, like an ID page, for example, hosted on an s3 bucket and Amazon s3 bucket as opposed direct, instead of direct to the root domain, the multi-site domain, that makes sense, it’s fully relevant. And it’s got a clean link profile with you know, the inbound link profiles topically relevant and yes, you can redirect directly to the money site, the root domain is fine. But if it’s not 100% relevant, but it’s got a lot of power and a somewhat clean link profile, but it’s just not fully relevant, then I would 301 redirect that to a buffer site. I prefer to use the Amazon s3 hosted ID page for that. But you could do it like a G site would be great for that. You know, pretty much any one of your tier one branded entity profiles. You could redirect to that but the G site would be a really good one for that Id page. Might is one I typically use for that. That makes sense. Okay, guys, so I can get to all the questions but most of them did get answered. So thank you guys for being here.

Hell of a deal.
Definitely.
I guess. Let’s get into it. Bradley. You’re good to go. Yeah, I’m good. Now let me grab the screen. You know, I’m still fighting through. I got a new PC last week and boy, and I remember why over six years, I kept my old one for six years because it’s a nightmare, transferring everything from, you know, one PC to another just takes forever. It’s been a week and I’m still not done.
So I got a question for you, Bradley. And hopefully, some other people can relate. And I know the answer, like from her nine, because I know he plays PC games. And so I bet you know, he nerds out on like putting together his PC or like getting a new one. Do you do that to Bradley? Or is it has it always just been like a work machine for you? And it just works. Okay. So like I transition because I used to, like, nerd out, you know, I’m like researching and doing all this and building my own PC. And now I’m like, dreading upgrading, because I’m like, Oh, my God, I don’t want to deal with having to like download programs and do this. And I never understood people who were like that before. Now. That’s to me, like one of the things I’m like, shit, I’m getting old. I know. Yeah.
Well, I used, I used this program, but it’s a company called Laplink. It’s called PC mover. And I use the professional version, which like 60 bucks or something like that. But it was great. It had it was overnight, it transferred everything from one PC to the other, all programs and everything, but you still got to log back into the programs, and then kind of like reset them or re-register them and all that kind of stuff. So and then obviously, some of the settings aren’t all the same, but it definitely helped. You know, before I’ve always done that shit manually, and it would literally take days of doing nothing but working on the PC like the transfer stuff. And this made everything a lot easier. But it’s still you know, I’m still going in and have to modify things. Do you know what I mean? So
that’s cool. What was that called? Again?
It’s called a sea mover by Laplink.
Awesome. I’m gonna write it down. It’s pretty cool. What saved me a ton of time. It lets me transfer overnight. And it took about six hours for it to transfer everything from one to another. But once it was done as I said, it definitely sped up the process still working my way through some bugs, but it was definitely a lot easier.
Sure. What rockets Did you get like that’s the curious question on everybody’s mind? The what? What kind of rocket computer did you get? Well, I got a good one was 64 megabytes RAM because that was my biggest issue. I use a browser to still, God forbid. And when I got a shit ton of Chrome profiles open, it slows my computer way down. I went from 32 gigabytes ram to 64 and it’s um, it’s definitely better. It’s faster. There are no questions.
I got a recommendation for you there right there. Was that is a fucking VPS man? Now to float the whole thing of like, 500 open tabs.
I just bought a new PC, so I don’t need to do that shit. So you can even do this like a week Chromebook and run that operation.
moving into question.
There we go. Alright, guys, we’re gonna get into it. Now. We’re gonna start with chassis that GIF anyways, maybe we’ll get to it. Keep going.
Which one?
Nevermind, just keep going.
I don’t see it.
Okay.
Is It Okay To Add A Company’s Wiki Page To Its Schema Data In SEO Ultimate?
All right. Anyway, moving on. Chad says Hey, guys. Well, it looks like I don’t remember answering this one last week. So we’ll go with this one. If a company has a Wikipedia page or something similar, like Crunchbase Is it a good idea to include it as a link in things schema using something like SEO ultimate for the name of the brand and variations of the brand to help with branded SERPs? Or is this a stupid idea and better to just put in sameas schema? Yeah, I mean, I’m I don’t fully understand the question or what you’re attempting to do. So if you want to clarify that, I’ll try to give you a better answer. But honestly just put it in the same as schema. That’s sameas schemas. Actually, it’s for your primary social accounts. However, we’ve had for years now we’ve been listing all of what we did, we feel are the most powerful properties that are, you know, branded profiles for a project to brand a company. And so I’ll use what I consider to be the most powerful citations, so to speak, or places where I have a profile, so it’ll be the main social media accounts, YouTube, Twitter, Tumblr, or excuse me, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, you know, Instagram, if you have it, I typically don’t use Instagram, but so the main social media accounts and then, like the Google Site GMB website, if you’re if you have a GMB the GMB map URL, you can also use the hash map designation and schema for that also, but I also put that in same as the Google site if you got an SEO shield, which you should press advantage organization page part of the SEO shield, right. And then also, I’ll put in top-level citations, if it’s for local, I’ve talked about how to do this many times. But typically, what I’ll do is just go to Google and search for the company name plus the phone number and then whatever listings or citations show up or any sort of profiles period that show up in the top two pages of Google search results for that brand plus phone number. By the way, if the top two pages are filled up with a lot of pages from the company domain, right from the, from that entities domain, then you can always put in a modifier like minus, then the domain name right the domain itself, so you know, mydomain.com, so minus the minus sign, then my domain.com, and it will strip those from the results that it shows. So again, I’ll do a search for the brand name plus phone number. And then I’ll do the minus domain comm as part of it, and then whatever shows up on those top two pages, I’ve just put those in my same as click through and make sure that they’re relevant. You know, if there’s not really any data on the page, then it’s unnecessary to put it in the schema, same as schema. But if it’s got the name, address, and phone number listed, and preferably with the link back to the site, and I will put that back in, or I’ll put that in the same schema. So again, top-level social media, the top syndication, network profiles, not all of them, but I put the top ones in like blogger, Tumblr, WordPress, for example, about me is another good one, press advantage, Google Site GMB website, GMB map share URL, or preferably the CI d equals URL not to share URL, and then the top two pages of citations or when I say citations, I don’t just mean structured citations like business directories, I mean, any anything that Google determines in the top two pages for that type of a search, why I just do the top two pages, because those are the ones that Google thinks are the most important, or the most authoritative, that are referencing your project site, right the brand itself. So that’s why I just stick with those. I don’t spam it to death. I know some people that will put everything that they ever create for their brand and same as, and it’s like super long. And I don’t think that that hurts it. But I just think that’s overkill. And there’s some sort of diminishing return there. So I like I said, I just stick with the top-level ones. And that’s basically it and typically gets really good results. And that can all be done with sameas schema. I wouldn’t attempt any of these other things that well first of all, I’m not 100% sure what you were asking, but you run the risk of ambiguating the entity if you start messing with it, so that’s why sameas is a particular designation that works well for that kind of thing. comments on that, guys, I know. It’s probably gonna be mostly me today.
How Do You Get The Twitter SEO Profile Addon When You Purchase The SEO Power Shield?
Nope, no, man. Okay, looks good. All right, moving on. So Chad says, Hey, guys, I’m looking to purchase a done for you SEO power shield. I noticed that with our ys reloaded package, there’s a Twitter SEO profile add on option since the SEO power shield includes an RYS stack? Is the Twitter SEO profile included? And if not, how do I go about adding that before or during checkout? Last thing? Fuck Google? It’s funny. Marco would be proud jazz? Um, that’s a really good question. Honestly, I know, I don’t typically use the Twitter SEO add on. And it’s just because I don’t really like Twitter. I know it’s good for SEO and all that. I’ve never been a fan of Twitter. So it’s just something I don’t use. If it’s something that you want to add to an SEO power shield, and that that does not come with it. Okay. If you’re ordering just a drive stack, then you can have that as an add on right? Or you can buy that package with the Twitter SEO and the SEO power show because it’s not something that people commonly purchased the Twitter SEO network, then we don’t include that in the SEO PowerSuite. Because again, those are like the bundled services, which people mostly purchase, right. So that’s the SEO shield packages are bundles that are the most commonly purchased bundles, so to speak. So if you want that add on, I would just contact support and ask how they want to handle that because I don’t think we have a that’s kind of just customization but I’m sure that support will accommodate you just contact [email protected] and tell them what you’re trying to do and they’ll get you sorted I’m sure. Okay.
Would Creating Online Tools Like WhoIs Checker Inadvertently Benefit Competitors As Their Domains Will Be Crawled?
Okay, the next question is from Pierce he says, Hey guys looking to build out some online tools for my web hosting business like an online who is checker, etc. which will create new domains with info about different domains. With info about different domains, okay, with doing this inadvertently benefit my competitors as their domains may get crawled and listed on the Whois tool. Won’t there be any links going to the domains just information like brand name image of the homepage and who is registration? I don’t fully understand that question Is anybody else? You guys probably weren’t even paying attention. Were you? I know I don’t fully understand this question. So we try one more time. Hey, guys, looking to build out some online tools for my web hosting business like an online who is checker, which will create new domains with info about different domains. I don’t understand the point of that.
I’m just wondering if that’s like, sorry, I don’t know the right terminology for this, but like you’re creating pages on the fly, like as people query it, you’re like, hey, let’s find out about this page. And then it builds a page with the information that, you know, in, like, builds it on the fly, maybe, but probably not a different domain. I mean, it could be a subdomain, but it probably is a page, but I don’t know.
Yeah. Yeah, I don’t fully understand the question. I don’t understand what creating new domains with info about different domains means. So just go, let’s assume he’s talking about subdomain. So like, every time someone does a query, he goes to go to his site, to go to domain.com, and say, Hey, tell me about semantic mastery. And it did some information on semantic mastery. And it creates a page called semantic mastery.is domain calm, and it shows some information about it. And just as of right, then that page is created on the fly and the domain exists.
As their domains may get crowded, listed on. Yeah, okay. If that’s what you’re, and that that was a great interpretation, Adam, because that may very well be what he’s trying to do. And I’m just going to assume that that is the case. For now. Maybe there’s some clarification down further?
No. All right. Well, I’m gonna run with what Adams interpretation of that question was, if that were the case, then, you know, that’s a good question. I don’t know 100%? No, if you’re not linking back to the competitor domain, then most likely not I mean, it’s still considered a citation. Right? If you’re listing information about the brand, the domain itself, right, then it could be considered a citation, which would be you know, remember, a citation doesn’t have to include a link, it’s just the publishing of entity information, typically name, address and phone number, right NAP. Sometimes the link sometimes without but just publishing that, even if it’s not hyperlinked is not clickable, none of that can count as a citation that’s more beneficial for local projects than it is for like national or global or whatever. But it still is it can help with SEO. But since if there’s no link whatsoever, you’re likely it’s likely that it wouldn’t, you know, it wouldn’t move the needle and is what I’m saying for your competitors. So I don’t think that that would be a problem. And again, that’s just me assuming that that is what you’re trying to do is create a subdomain page anytime somebody doesn’t create a query because I don’t really fully understand the question. So anyway, that said, hopefully, that answers your question. I don’t think it would be an issue if it’s just listing like text-based data about that domain. But again, still not 100% sure why you would want to do that.
Will You Get Topics Related To Law When You Submit A Deep Keyword Research For Lawyers?
So anyway, there he says, Lanre. I think I got it right this time, man. Landre, right. I think so. Anyways, if I need to do a keyword for divorce lawyers, if I need to do keywords, or key okay for divorce lawyers, do I need to submit for keyword research for lawyers or divorce lawyers? Okay, so if you’re going to order a keyword research package because I’m assuming that’s what you’re asking if you’re going to order a keyword search package from MGYB. for divorce lawyers do I submit for keyword research, for lawyers, or for divorce lawyers? Well, if you’re going specifically after divorce lawyers, then if you were to just submit lawyers as your keyword, then it’s going to pull back divorce lawyers and personal injury attorneys and family law and, you know, criminal attorneys, and it’s going to pull all that back, which would be not relevant to your project, right. So if your project is all about divorce lawyers, then I would use divorce lawyers or attorneys, you know, they’re kind of interchangeable as your keyword. And then they’ll start pulling it from there and extracting all of the keywords, you know, subsets or theme sub-themes from divorce lawyers. And I’m kind of compiling and optimizing the keyword file for you that way if it’s the, you know, the top whatever the top-level keyword packages, so that’s, that’s what I would suggest because remember, if you’re going with the broader term, you’re going to get broader results too, which aren’t going to be relevant to your product or your project, excuse me. So I would go with divorce lawyers. Okay, don’t include any local modifiers though. We don’t need that for the deep keyword research.
If I submit for deep keyword research for lawyers, will I be able to select various areas of law to build my site or Well, I have to build a law site that covers various ways I’d be able to select various areas of law to build my site? Or will I have to build a law site that covers various areas of law Okay, um, all right, I won’t be able to select various areas of law to build my site? Yeah, I mean, as I said, if you go with the lawyers like for D word, if you just went with lawyers, right, which is very broad, then it’s going to return everything. And there will be suggested silos and all that, which then, you know, you can determine whether you want to use them or not. It’s up to your, you know, what, what your project is about? Because you, if you again, if you go with lawyers, there’s going to be all kinds of environmental law, immigration lawyers, there’s going to be all kinds of stuff in there, that is probably not going to be relevant to you. I mean, again, I don’t know what you mentioned in the previous question, divorce lawyers. So I’m assuming that you want to be optimized more for that. more specialized right. So I would go with just divorce lawyers. But again, if you want to do a more general type of law website that covers multiple subcategories for attorneys or lawyers, then you want to go with the broader term. Does that make sense? And then you can just select which, you know, silos or suggested silos that you want to use. And again, they’re suggested you still have to go through and, you know, stack the content or the keywords, the way that you want them to be, we do our best to give you you know, things and keyword groups or keyword themes, which would be suggested silos essentially. But it’s still up to you to go through and actually, you know, choose which ones of those keywords are fully relevant to your project, and to select which ones you’re going to create content for or optimized content for is that if that makes sense? Okay. All right. Moving on. hopefully, that answered that question. It was a little bit of a difficult question, I guess.
Is It Wise To Point Tier 2 Links From MGYB Or Other Sources To Bit.ly Linking Back To The Money Site?
Christopher says, Hey, SM crew, when it comes to pop pushing power behind links, is it wise? Is it a wise idea to point tier two legs from MGYB? or other sources to Bitly? linking back to the money site? Or is it better to direct somewhere else? Okay, Christopher, that’s a good question. But there are a few things that I would recommend. So tier two links from MGYB or other sources to Bitly. Okay. Bitly, I don’t recommend using Bitly for shortening links, your money sites, and stuff, because this has been a known issue with Bitly. Now, it may have changed, it may be updated. And they don’t do this anymore. I don’t know. I just know from years ago, I’m talking like, you know, six, seven years ago, Bitly was infamous for. They’re supposed to be 301 redirect URLs, short shorteners, right, which creates a 301 redirect, but for whatever reason, and there was no like, rhyme, or reason behind it. Bentley will sometimes convert some Bitly redirects to three Oh, twos, right, which is it, it doesn’t allow PageRank to pass. And if that’s the case, then building links to Bitly shortened URLs that have been tagged as 302, you know, have been converted to 302 redirects, then you lose all of any potential benefit from the link building to that short link is completely lost at that point. So we have for years and years, we stopped using Bitly for short URLs other than like, when you’re using them for SEO purposes, I use Bitly all the time in like internal documents and things like that. Because it’s not SEO related, right? It’s but when I’m doing when I’m creating redirects for SEO purposes, I don’t like to use Bitly. Because of that very reason. There’s sometimes you’ll look at Bit.ly links and through like a redirect checker and it’ll be a 301. Other times you’ll look at Bitly links, and there’ll be 3.0s in Bitly just does that on their own, at least they used to again, it’s been many years since I’ve really tested any of that because I just stopped using Bitly years ago because of that reason. So I don’t know if that’s still the case or not. But I know that at some point, they were doing that and so it made Bitly not a good tool for SEO purposes. That said, Remember, MGYB has a link shortener, right. And that’s why we use it because we do a lot of what you’re asking about here. For example, if you go to mgyb.co/s, which is the link shortener, you’ll see what I’m talking about, okay.
And that was not what I wanted to do. Right there, mgyb.co/s is the link shortener. So you can sign up, you know, you can have a free account or you can pay for a paid account, which is very, very inexpensive and gives you some additional functionality. But that’s part of the reason when we deliver like an SEO shield, for example, all of the five links that were included in the order originally like your syndication, network profiles, then all of the files and folders that are created throughout the building of the drive stack. All of those links also get shortened. And if you take a look at like for example, the links sheet That comes with an SEO shield order. You’ll see on the so the Google Sheet when I say sheet, that’s what I mean. You’ll see on there, there will be all of the URLs listed for all the files and folders in the drive stack in one column. And then in the column to the right of it, there will be all the short URLs that are MGYB. Seo short, shortened URLs. And the reason why we do that is that, you know, with all the link building that gets done to drive stacks and everything else, people will also submit link building, you know, the target, the mgyb.co short URLs as target URLs. And so over time, this has gotten really, really powerful. In fact, there’s, it’s funny, but oftentimes, the MGYB.co short URLs will rank in search results as opposed to the unfurled or the target destination URLs. So like, for example, Google, My Maps, my map URL, typically I see for a lot of the projects that I have SEO shields done when the mind maps are ranking. It’s the MGYB.co short URL, as opposed to the actual Google URL. Does that make sense? that’s showing in the search results. So if you want to use a link shortener use ours, because that’s specifically why we set it up was for that reason, and there is some benefit to that. Now, remember, there’s a little bit of PageRank, that drops through redirects, right, you lose a little bit of loss PageRank loss through every redirect, I don’t know what that number is. It’s, you know, a small percentage, like 10 to 15%, or something like that. And I don’t know that that’s completely accurate anyways. So there is a little bit of a loss there. But there is some benefit to it as well because again, our short URL link URL, and probably all the big ones Bitly probably has a shit ton of power built to it. But if it arbitrarily converts it to a 302, you’re not going to benefit from that. Does that make sense? So there are other options out there, there’s ours, then there are other options out there that won’t arbitrarily assign a 302 redirect? Okay. That’s a good question.
What Other Places Where We Can Secure Citations For Local SEO Clients Aside From Yelp And Manta?
Okay, moving on. George, the SEO, aside from places like Yelp Manta and other directories and press releases, where are some other places we can see secure psychic citations, excuse me, for local SEO clients? Um, well, you know, there’s the normal business directories. But one of the things out here, I’ll, I’ll go through a little exercise with you guys. And this works really well for stuff to remember, there are a few things that you guys should be doing for citations, besides the standard citations, which everybody and their brother is on, you should be looking for niche-specific directories. So like industry-specific directories, let me pull this up. Industry directories and also local directories. Right. So what I mean by that, so for example, if I, you know, Tree Service stuff is what I do. So if I say tree service business directory, go through here and see. I don’t understand what that means. Anyways, look at that later. Okay, so what I would do is go just do a search for you know, your industry business directory, and just start clicking through and see which ones you can get listed on, some are going to be paid, but many of them will be free, and compile a list. If there are similar or tangent industries, that would also be good places to get listed. So for example, a tree service business directory, I could get listed on as many of these in here that I could find, that makes sense that, you know, again, some are going to be paid some of they’re going to are going to be free. just compile a list of industry-specific directories. then like I said, look for a tangent market or industry directories. So for example, I could look for landscaping, business directories, right, those could be some of the other ones that I could get listed on because of tree services. Oftentimes, landscapers also provide tree services, and oftentimes tree services also provide landscaping services. Right? That makes sense. So that that’d be another word one, something else for in the tree service industry would be like maybe land clearing. Let’s do this. Right. So just you guys understand what I’m saying. Right? I was and I don’t know, because land clearing isn’t probably searched enough on its own for it to have specific directories, maybe it does. I’d have to do some research. But my point is just going through and try to compile a list of what could be industry-related or somewhat related industry-specific directories that you can try to attempt to get listed on so that’s going to help okay for talking relevancy, but then for location, relevancy, or geographic relevancy, then you could look for local business directories. So for example, if I was going to look for, you know, say, Fairfax, Virginia, I’m just going to use that or Richmond, Virginia, which is the capital of Virginia. So let me do that, let’s say Richmond, VA, or Richmond, Virginia, Business Directory. And then I would just go right on through here and just start clicking through and opening up, that’s richmond.com, the Chamber of Commerce, obviously, that’d be another good one. There, all of these different try to put it back over there. This is this is richmond.com. This is the Chamber of Commerce 804 area.com, Richmond gov.com, you might even be able to get listed on like the local municipality or local government site, Richmond light pages in like all of these does that make sense, you just go through and look for your city business directories. And then you could also even look for not just your city, but your state, right, you could go like, in my case, Virginia business directory, and then go in and start getting listed on those. So there you go, you’ve got three additional options right there, something else you could look for is local blogs, it doesn’t have to just be directories. You could also look out for local blogs, local event, local events would be something else that you might be able to get listed on. So you just got to click through and do a little bit of research. But guys, these types of citations are actually way more powerful than the big ones like the big national directories because those are general business directories that cover all types of business categories. And all over the United States, sometimes even more. So those are there’s a place for those. There’s no question. But I found for SEO purposes, you get better results from industry-specific and local business directories. And even you know, state business directories are also helpful. Does that make sense? Does anybody want to comment on that?
And nothing, man. Okay.
Should I Use A Gsite Or Buy A Domain For Local Service Lead Gen Site?
bb’s up? Hey, guys, should I use a G site Or buy a domain for local service lead gen, please explain for short term and long term strategy. Okay. Um, you know, Rob, he does everything with just a G site, he doesn’t do any, like self-hosted sites at all. And he’s, you know, he kills it. There’s, I like to still build a brand with a self-hosted site. For the most part, if I’m doing a standalone GMB lead gen, that isn’t going to be like some brand that I plan to expand, then, which I try not to do that anymore at all. If I’m going to start building lead gen assets, I try to always create a brand that I’m going to use across multiple locations. Okay, because, as we’ve talked about many, many times before, now, you don’t have to have a self-hosted site for that, though, right? You can create it and here’s the thing BB. Whatever route you go, whether you want to self-hosted site, right, so by domain for that, or just use Google sites and drive stacks, you know, the SEO shield, essentially, without a self-hosted site, you can do it, either way, it doesn’t matter. It’s up to you. I tend to like to have a WordPress site still because it gives me additional functionality. But I know that you can do it with just a G site. What my recommendation is, is that you target just a brand on the primary g site, if you want to go that route where you’re you don’t have to buy domains, you don’t have to have a hosting account. You don’t have to set up and maintain or manage WordPress, you can do it with just a Google site. But what I recommend is instead of localizing the Google site, for the initial, the initial one, you want to set it up as a brand, right? So essentially, let’s just call it Bs, lead gen, right? We’re gonna call it that. So your first your G site and your SEO shield, I would set it up on to where it’s optimized for specifically the brand. That’s it. All right, so that you order the SEO power field for Bibi’s lead gen. So that’s the brand so that Google site would be sites.google.com slash views, slash Bs, lead gen. And I wouldn’t add or associate it with a particular location. At that point, if there’s going to be a standalone, then you could do that. You’re right, you’d want to be maybes lead gen for whatever you’re sitting in, right? So plus city. But if you’re going to create a brand out of it, which is what I recommend and create, that you can expand from multiple locations, then I would do it for just the brand at the top level. And then for every location. Even if you’re starting off with just one location, I would create that as an inner page of the G site. So it’s optimized, you know, has it like basically a location page and inner page on the sight as well as an ROI is expansion. White, which you order that an mg y b as well, which would be optimized for that particular location. And then for each subsequent location that you add, it gets another ROI is expansion stack, or ROI is expansion. Stack expansion, excuse me, whatever you get what I’m saying I would have an expansion for each individual location. And each location would be optimized for that, you know, whatever your primary keyword is plus the location. That’s the way I do it. And the reason why is because you can really build that entity up that brand name up, so that initially, it’s all going to be the same. But over time, as you add more like you continue to link build into it and everything else, it’s going to start to gain authority. And each time you want to add another location expand to a new area, then when you add another ArcGIS expansion, another inner, you know, inner page on the G site, it’s going to instantly benefit from all of the power that’s been accrued into that branded stack, and G site. Does that make sense? So initially, your workload is going to be the same. In fact, it might even be a little bit higher initially, because instead of optimizing the drive stack and the G site homepage for a particular location, you optimize it for the brand only. And then you have to have an expansion to target the specific location. So upfront, it might be a little bit more work just a tiny bit, but over time, it’s going to pay off, it’s going to produce a significant payoff, because each time you add a niche, another location is going to instantly benefit from the power of crude and will be a hell of a lot easier to get results from then starting over from scratch each time. So that makes sense. So that’s why I prefer to do it that way. I mean, I still like to have a WordPress site, guys unless like, as I said, it’s just a standalone, like a test project or something like that. But if it’s something that I plan on expanding, I like to have a WordPress site. But that’s just personal preference. As I said, Rob does everything with just g sites and just crushes it. So it’s up to you how you want to handle that. Okay.
Should You Use A Branded Or A Service Name For A Local Business Lead Gen?
What name should we use for local business Legion branded or service name included or end this limits locality? wanting to know if that will rank faster? Yeah. I don’t recommend Well, I reckon Semantic Mastery has been talking about branding for years, we got away from using EMD his exact match domains A long time ago, I always go for a brand. There can be a partial keyword in the brand name a lot of tree contractors do that. Like, you know, though, a lot of tree contractors will have the city name and their, their, their company name or, or Tree Service, obviously, what we’ll be at, which is a keyword tool. But I prefer to go with branded domains and brands, you know, I don’t like keyword stuffing the name. Why? Because think about this, guys. A lot of the times company names are like, especially for service contractors is really just a keyword. Right? It’s like, again, like call pepper Tree Service. If I was going to run with that as a name, right, I live in Cole pepper, called pepper Tree Service. That’s a keyword. So it’s hard to make it a brand. Because there’s ambiguation right off the bat because it’s technically a keyword. Right? It could also be a brand, but you have to overcome the fact that it’s a keyword in Google’s eyes to be recognized as a brand. Does that make sense? So you’re starting from an entity-based SEO standpoint, you’re starting at a disadvantage when you try to go after a generic or keyword-based type entity name. You’re better off going with something unique, that’s branded, it can have a partial match keyword in it, that’s okay. But my point is like I wouldn’t, especially if it’s going to be like you plan on expanding outside of a particular location that I wouldn’t want to include a location name, a specific city name in the brand name, because then you’d be pigeonholing yourself or limiting yourself to that one location. Right? So hopefully that makes sense.
Can You Target A Keyword That Is Searched On Google Even If It’s Not Understandable To Humans?
Can you target a keyword that is searched on Google, but there’s no meaning of it for humans, and they will not understand it. Yeah, sure, you can. That’s how a lot of people do single variable SEO tests. Again, why would you want to do that BB, you always ask these theoretical questions. And I have to ask you why I don’t understand why you would want to target a keyword that is searched on Google, but there is no meaning for it to humans. I’m not sure what you would want to do that for but yeah, sure you can. But no meaning to humans. Why? Like I don’t understand what the point of that would be. Anyway.
Let’s say that I want to change your phone number. I have a business and they’re one place that does not live. And there there’s one place that does not let me do that will putting on another place old number.
And the new number and company name. Will Google understand that the other place was a mistake. Not No. I don’t. And again, I don’t fully understand that question either but
No, because here’s the thing, if you’ve got an old phone number that’s outdated, and it’s published on the web, you know, all those places that are published, how you’d have to update all of them is my point. That’s why it’s better if you’ve got like, for example, NAP errors, right? We have data inaccuracy is for NAP for a particular business, it’s better, it’s wiser, it’s more effective to go clean up or correct. Incorrect citation data than it is to start publishing new citations with the correct data. Because all you’re doing at that point is diluting bad data. Right? You get weight. And trust me, I’ve, I’ve over the years, I’ve dealt with a lot of clients that had significant NAP issues. When I when they came to me, and I’ve learned over the years, the best thing to do is not start building news. I mean, starting to build new citations is going to happen naturally anyway, from the content marketing that we do. But the best way to get results from you know maps pack issues or maps ranking issues when there are any NAP data issues inconsistencies. The best thing to do the most effective thing to do is to update existing citations with correct data, which for that the best service that I’ve ever used is Loganix’s service. So if you go to semanticmastery.com/loganix, that’s L-o-g-a-n-i-x. It’s going to take you to their service, and they have a citation cleanup service, which I think 500 bucks might even be 600 bucks. It’s really good, though. It’s the best one. I’ve done this a number of times for clients over the years. And their services. I’ve used a bunch of services to do citation cleanups. And I’m telling you there is by far the most thorough service period. And to this day, every time I got a project or new client that has nav issues, the first thing I include the cost of this service, right in the proposal, when I get a new client, and typically I mark it up, and I also purchase through their account Loganix account that I set up for them through my own affiliate link as a Loganix affiliate, so that I get a markup Plus, I think it’s only 10% Commission, but I get a 10% commission as well. And then Loganix does all the work, and they’ve got their citation cleanup service, which is really, really good. Okay. So if their page loaded a little bit quicker, I’d show you that. Let’s go here, local SEO. And then they have some citation cleanup right here. And it looks like it starts at 497. And it takes about they say a six-week campaign, and they typically will run it for eight to 10 weeks, though. And it’s multiple stages, and it works really, really well. Okay.
How Would You Deal With Existing Social Profiles And Drive Stacks If Your Client Decides To Rebrand?
Jose says Hi there, say you have a client that decides to rebrand and merge multiple websites together or change over to a completely new brand for the domains, I would throw one. everything over to the right place. But how would you deal with social profiles and drive stacks? Would you rebuild from scratch? don’t want to waste link juice from the old stacks? Ooh, that’s a really good question. Um, well, with the drive stacks, remember, if you’re wanting the target the original site URLs to the new one, that you consolidate it, everything right, so the other domains that were now all redirected to the new one. So what I’m saying is that drive stacks are going to be targeting, if you had drive stacks built for these other brands or these other domains, right? That was pointing to those domains. And now those domains are 3012, the new money site, then all of that link flow is still going to be going through that redirect to the money site. The problem that I see with that, though, is it’s not from it from a link juice point, there’s no problem but from the data point and the information like the entity information, right, if you’ve got stuff out there from older brands that have now been consolidated into something new, and you’ve got those still remember on SEO from an SEO juice, right, so like a link equity standpoint, it’s flowing through the 301 redirects to your new domain, your new brand, it’s fine, you’re still gonna benefit from that. But you could ambiguous the entity information of the new entity because all of that is flowing from previously published stuff that had old entity info on it. So again, if you think about it from an SEO juice point, it’s fine. It’s still all flows through. But at the same time, I would worry about having all that other published data about an entity that no longer exists because it’s been consolidated in the new one. So that’s a really good question.
I’m not sure how I would handle that, I understand not wanting to lose all that power, but without, without going in and you know, editing the file, like the text and stuff like that on the phone, the files, essentially, the G sites and stuff too. You know, mentioned the entity information like NAP, for example, name, address phone number of the new entity, then I would be concerned that that might ambiguous the data, which in my case, and I’ve done that in the past, I’ve just killed the folders like just set them to, you know, not know, not public, so that the SEO juice will still flow, but they’re not, you know, being indexed and all that kind of stuff. So I don’t know, that’s the way that I’ve done it in the past was I’ve just set that in the folders too, you know, private, essentially. But go in, but again, it’s either that or kill it altogether, but I understand not wanting to waste the juice, but at the same time, if you want to, if you want to keep the public, then you’d have to go in and actually edit all and from what I know, I would want to go in and edit all of the, you know, published data about the old entity and update it with the new and that would be a shit ton of work. There’s a lot of there’s no question about that. That’s how I would do it. What I rebuild from scratch Yeah, I would have a new drive stack built for the new brand new consolidated brand. Absolutely. It but I understand not wanting to waste all the power built to the previous ones. So that’s about the only thing I could think of to do with that would be to you know, in the past, like I said, I’ve just set them to not public and kept them but they weren’t, you know, indexable or killed the folders entirely. Which sucks because then you lose all that juice, but it is what it is. Okay.
How Are You Managing Freelancers When You Start To Grow Your Team?
Jays up. He says, How are you guys managing freelancers, writers, Link builders, etc. When do you start to grow your team? Are you just using something like up work with teams? Or something better? Yeah, I mean, I, I just my team has only two people now. Well, I’ve got bloggers, but they’re, I don’t really manage them much. I’ve got two assistants that work for me on you know, Monday through Friday, though. And I just manage everything through slack. We’ve got a CRM that we use, Well, a couple of CRMs. I’ve got a high level for agency staff. And then I use a different CRM for real estate stuff. And then I’ve got slack channels that I manage everybody in, you know what Adam would be the better one to answer this one.
Yeah, I think it’s a this is this could be its own, like, full-on conversation. So I’ll try to keep this somewhat short. But I think it depends on what your needs are, like, Don’t go looking for a problem to solve before you have one. So if you’re feeling the crunch, and it sounds like j, you’re maybe looking at you’ve got a small team and you’re growing, you know, if it’s not working, then now’s a good time, you got the pain point. So I would start simple though, like for me right now I use ClickUp. And I work, you know, between full time, part-time and contractors have had like seven or eight people from different groups. So that’s one there’s a lot of these services like ClickUp Monday, trying to think of other ones, but you know, those are two good examples, you can go and check out and they usually have some sort of free tier, but they can get complicated and you can spend a lot of time figuring them out. So Trello is definitely a good place where you could get started with the simple like maybe you have one list of ideas or things or templates and then you have one have in progress and one has finished or needs to review something like that just to get you in the mindset of delegating more, because as you build up your team, your time should shift towards more effectively delegating and doing a very good job and spending a lot of time on that upfront so that you don’t spend as much time doing or as much time fixing because you gave someone shooting instructions and I say that because I’m you know growing pains myself going from a couple of people to more you know, shrinking, growing, you know, seeing that again and again. So just make sure that you have an actual need for this don’t do more than what you need, but be aware of what your options are and stay simple rather than get complicated fast.
That was a good answer. And I like what you preface everything with is don’t look for a solution or don’t try to find a solution for a problem you don’t have yet I’ve tried Monday and click up in some of those and you know I quit because exactly what you said you they there’s so much stuff that you can do with those and there are different ways that you can build them and all that different you know, you can go down a rabbit hole and get lost and just tweaking the platforms and so you know, my point and trying to use them was to be more efficient. But then I found that it was taking so much time just learning how to use it and setting it up and all that kind of stuff and working it in you know creating workflows and all that that you What’s working for me what a small a very lean team like I have is just something super simple, which is just slack. And I’ve calendar notifications. And then we have tasks and stuff that my CRM will automatically assign to, you know, the appropriate, you know, a person for projects and things like that. So I use just those tools were, which were things that we were already familiar with, I didn’t see the need, after trying like Monday and click up, I saw that it just was overkill for my lean operation. So, you know, do what’s easy and simple. And, you know, if you’re going to be growing a big team, you might need to look into something like that, for sure. But just, you know, keep it I like what Adam said, is that you got to just be careful, because you’ll you could end up, you know, in an effort and in the pursuit of trying to be more efficient, you could kill your productivity. You know, yeah, it’s taken us a while, like, I’m glad I went with ClickUp. I used Monday, I switched to click up, and I’m glad I did, but it was a learning curve. And, you know, there’s a lot of time invested in that and figuring out how best to use it. So I can teach the team how best to use it. Now they’re helping out too. But you know, someone’s got to figure it out, start with the thing I will say is investing time and effort in your processes upfront. So if you go to SEOshield.com I believe Bradley, you built that in process three, right? That’s a checklist.
No, that’s an mgyb.co/process finger there that you’ll see. You gotta it’s behind an opt-in. Well, now guys, you got to submit your email to get to it. But if it’s MGYB.co/process and that was built in process Street, yes,
gotcha. Okay, yeah, I have that mixed up. And so I would just say, if you’re going to spend time somewhere, to spend it on the process side, and it doesn’t have to be paid service, could be Google Docs could be Trello. With a checklist, or, you know, if you like something sleek, like process Street, something that you can easily duplicate it’s made for this. But yeah, put your time and effort into the processes. And then you can fill out the rest of that over time. And for years, all I did for process docs was Google, Google Docs, and screencast, which I would upload to YouTube screencast recorder, and that would so for years, that’s all I did. And to this day, when I’m first developing a process, that’s where I do it the same way I record a screencast video and I type, I start typing out the steps in a Google Doc. And then once I get the rough draft of the process, done, the process documentation is done, then I transfer that now to process street, and I process Street, it’s paid, I think I only pay like 35 bucks a month or something. So it’s worth it to me. But it makes it much more polished. And you can create checklists and things like that from and embed videos directly into it. And you know, all kinds of really cool stuff that you can do with process Street. But still to this day, when I’m first starting to develop a process document, I do it with just Google Docs and a screencast video until I get my first you know, the rough first draft of it done. And it works really, really well guys, and for many years, that’s all I did was Google Drive, and YouTube, well, you know, screencasts that I would upload to YouTube. And that worked for years. So you don’t need to overcomplicate that either.
One thing I will say is two things rather a little bit of shiny object. But check out the notion as well. If you like putting stuff together yourself, that’s a great one took me a while to realize the power there. I’m using that for marketing calendars and some other stuff too. And then last but not least, if you do Google 360, the numbers 360 delegations, there’s a great article, I forget who it is or who referred me, but it’s profitfactory.com/360delegation, it’s a fantastic article on why you should be delegating and doing the processed stuff and where you should be spending your time. And you know, kind of directed my attention for. I really do need to be putting in more time. For example, the vision of a project, you know, this isn’t for a tiny little task, but for maybe a project, like what do I want? You know, what does it look like? Why are we doing this and sharing a little bit with the team? So it’s not just, hey, go build this. And this doesn’t have to be some complex product process, but sharing with the team, so they understand a little bit of the bigger picture, because anyone who’s involved in this type of stuff, probably would like and benefit from a little bit of it. And then the resources like what resources do they need? Do you already have LastPass? or whatever? are you sharing all the passwords? Do you need to record anything? Do they need software? like running through this checklist? And then going and what’s the definition of done? Do you have screenshots of what is a good done project or task is do you have an example? Do you have something they can compare it to? Is there a schedule? And he was going through this and saying, Oh wow, for myself? who’s like, Yeah, I got to spend more time upfront so that I spend less time getting involved in it down the road when it Yeah, I just told him to get started and lucked out 20% of what they needed.
Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, it sucks. Because, you know, a lot of the times it’s so much easier just to do with, you know, completed a task on your own than it is because it’s, it’s like, you know, this is only going to take me 20 minutes. And if I got to create a process, you know, process documentation, it’s gonna take three hours, you know, if to do this 20-minute task, I’ll just do the damn task. But the problem with that is, then the next time that task has to be done, guess who does it again? Do you know what I mean? And so it and I have I struggle with that all the time. Because, you know, sometimes some of the processes that I want to go develop are super complex. And I know that it’s gonna take me days, literally days to develop that process out. And so I’m like, Fuck, it’ll only take me two hours to do this, I’ll just do it myself. You know, because I don’t have the time to create this process don’t train right now. But then the next time that situation occurs again, it’s me that has to do it again. And so you know, and I’ve got invest the time again. And so it’s like, you have to constantly Wait, like, should you just go ahead and execute the task, and move on to the next thing? Or should you invest the time to develop the process, so that number one, if it’s you, that has to do it, again, you’ve got it’s done consistent, right? That the quality is consistent because you’ve got a checklist now that you can run down to make sure that you don’t miss anything, or whatever. But second, and more importantly, you can hand that off to somebody else to where you never have to do it again. And so to me, even the really complex tasks that require sometimes multiple levels of process docs, you know, I try to at least start working on those like plugging away at them a little bit at a time where I might know more complex tasks, I might say, Okay, look, I’m gonna spend 30 minutes a day or an hour a day over the next, you know, two weeks developing this, this process training. That way, I don’t feel like it has to be done today. But at the same time, I’m making progress on it a little bit at a time, if that makes sense.
So yeah, very true.
Is There Any Harm In Running Too Many PRs In A Short Period Of Time?
We’re almost out of time, let’s run through the last couple. Let’s see, we’ll say hey, gents, I have a client that wants to run one press release every three days, the manufacturing plant is supplying a range of new products, and they want to be number one, before any other supplier, I did a test with four times or four PRs in four weeks, and it worked a treat. He now wants me to push that further and do about 10 PRs in one month. These are four different products, and each has a separate landing page. Is there any harm in running this many PRs?
No, not at all. I’ve got a few projects that I typically publish eight PRs per month on and then I know Rob has done. He’s just spam the shit out. Like I say, spam, it’s not really spam, but he’s done a whole bunch of press releases in a week. Like, I don’t know what the number is, but I know he’s done multiple press releases in a week for a particular project, just to test it and it always produces good results. So no more won’t hurt you. Okay. Good question. By the way, Gordon says, Hey, guys, hope everyone is still well and COVID. Free. I believe it used to be imperative for a local business to have their site ranking on the first page of Google or at least on the second page. In order to rank in the GMB three-pack, is that currently essential? Or can their site rank way down and organic search results and you can still get a three-pack ranking by doing completely on-page GMB listing optimization. And by targeting the GMB listing itself, with press releases, citations, drive stacks, etc, from MGYB? And if so, can you do it with the middle of the road quantity and quality of reviews? Thank you very much. As usual for you. Yeah, no, I know what you mean about there’s been a connection between maps ranking and organic ranking, but I could talk for years, all I did was optimized for maps, and I didn’t give a shit at all about organic rankings, I’ve started to do more on the organic side of things now because the maps proximity filter is much tighter now it’s much narrower. So getting maps listing to rank, you know, outside of its immediate physical location area is more difficult now. So that’s why I’ve started working also on organic rankings again. Because it’s but long story short, I know what you mean about the connection between the two, but I’ve got a ton of GMB assets that the organic rankings are basically nonexistent like I just didn’t even try ever. And so some of them are ranking in the three-pack. But I’ve got you know, it’s page four before you find the first organic ranking for that, you know, keyword, for example. So I don’t know that the connection is still there. I know that I will, you know, I try to do a balance of the two now for, you know, new projects, but for older projects that all I did was focused on GMB ranking. I’ve got many, many examples of that, that the organic rankings are just really shitty, you know, page three, page four, whatever. But it’s ranking in the three-pack if that makes sense. So I don’t think it matters. Honestly. I could be wrong. They might, somebody else might have some now, if you get your organic ranking to rank well, will it help to benefit the maps ranking? I think so. But if you’re just focusing on maps, I don’t think that the organic rankings make much of a difference, at least in my own experience. Now, again, there might be some other data out there that conflicts with But for my from my own experience, it doesn’t really matter for maps rankings. That makes sense.
What’s The Best Use Of A Newly Acquired Domain With 100+ Links?
Okay, the last question is going to be from Robert and we’re going to wrap it up. Robert says, Thanks for continuing Hump Day hanging out with us all. You’re welcome. We enjoy this. If I have a money site, I just acquired a domain with 100 plus links, mostly follow links with high authority and relative anchors. Great. What’s the best way to use this newly acquired domain 301 redirects? Yeah, if it’s relevant, you can do that. I don’t like to do that a lot. But if it was a domain, where it was topically relevant to what you’re going to be forwarding it to, or 301 redirecting it to, then that means the inbound link profile from that domain that you purchased is likely relevant. Also double-check that if it’s relevant, then yes, do a 301 redirect directly to the money site. If it’s not fully irrelevant, but there’s a lot of power built to it, then what I would recommend that you do is 301. redirect that to a buffer page, like an ID page, for example, hosted on an s3 bucket and Amazon s3 bucket as opposed direct, instead of direct to the root domain, the multi-site domain, that makes sense, it’s fully relevant. And it’s got a clean link profile with you know, the inbound link profiles topically relevant and yes, you can redirect directly to the money site, the root domain is fine. But if it’s not 100% relevant, but it’s got a lot of power and a somewhat clean link profile, but it’s just not fully relevant, then I would 301 redirect that to a buffer site. I prefer to use the Amazon s3 hosted ID page for that. But you could do it like a G site would be great for that. You know, pretty much any one of your tier one branded entity profiles. You could redirect to that but the G site would be a really good one for that Id page. Might is one I typically use for that. That makes sense. Okay, guys, so I can get to all the questions but most of them did get answered. So thank you guys for being here.

But that is not going to happen anyway. 17. Do you think there is life on other planets? Most definitely. 18. Do you still talk to your first crush? Nope, thank god. 19. Do you like bubble baths? Yep! 20. Do you like your neighbors? I don’t really talk with anyone in my current building but I got plenty of my own Uni friends in the neighborhood so yes I guess? 21. What are you bad habits? Leaving dishes for a while because I’m a lazy fuck. If I’m alone at home for a few days they will pile up while “soaking”… 22. Where would you like to travel? Canada, USA, Brazil, Switzerland, Japan… 23. Do you have trust issues? Big ones. Too many broke my trust way too lightly in the past. I try to deal with it the best I can. 24. Favorite part of your daily routine? Going to sleep LMAO 25. What part of your body are you most uncomfortable with? L E G S. Thanks mum. 26. What do you do when you wake up? Turn around and try to get more sleep. Or feed the cat. 27. Do you wish your skin was lighter or darker? I guess I’m pretty comfortable with myself but I’m pale as a papersheet. I’ll stand next to your bed and you’ll think me of a ghost…someday I’ll get smacked by a pillow I’m telling you. If I had to pick between the two, darker. 28. Who are you most comfortable around? My best friend* and probably my closest uni buds. 29. Have any of your ex’s told you they regret breaking up? I…guess so? I don’t know. It’s the past and we’ve accepted that it is what it is and I can’t force someone to feel a certain way about me. Sucks, but life goes on. 30. Do you ever want to get married? If the person survives with me for a longer time and makes me happy, then hell yeah. 31. If your hair long enough for a pony tail? It reaches the lower parts of my back so you bet it’s hell on earth to not have it up most of the time. 32. Which celebrities would you have a threesome with? Kristen Stewart, Gal Gadot, Floriana Lima. 33. Spell your name with your chin. L,.ou7jhycfdvr6ty (HA. NAILED IT. Now I look like a virus bot) 34. Do you play sports? What sports? I used to! Used to play basketball, badminton and did a year and a half of archery as well. 35. Would you rather live without TV or music? Loophole! TV, because I already don’t have channels on mine, I rely on my pc and streams 😉 (If this means series vs music then series anyway, life without music would be too sad and quiet) 36. Have you ever liked someone and never told them? Too many times. 37. What do you say during awkward silences? I probably end up doing something stupid like suddenly falling backwards or tripping over or staring blankly into the distance. 38. Describe your dream girl/guy? They’re a person who makes you want to be better, do better – for yourself and for others. Compassionate, caring, knowing their worth. Kind of a person who sees a bee on the concrete and picks it up to a flower, you know? Loving animals, not wanting kids, bonus if they enjoy video games! Rest is up to them, you can’t have good dreams without surprises :D 39. What are your favorite stores to shop in? My fave comic store in Old Town, Stockholm. Also all kinds of skate or hipster stores for clothes. 40. What do you want to do after high school? I’m already dying in University. After this? Clinical pharmacy and livin la vida loca in a log cabin with dogs, my cat, and a nice view from the porch that I can enjoy with my nerdy cup of tea. 41. Do you believe everyone deserves a second chance? Most of the time. I want to believe that always, but this doesn’t apply to killing, I suppose. I don’t know, this is a weird case but when it comes to general life, then yes definitely. 42. If your being extremely quiet what does it mean? I’m probably thinking I did something wrong, or just experienced a conversation that left me pretty shattered. I’m in need of space because of something that made me think a lot and I need to process it my way. 43. Do you smile at strangers? In Sweden that’s considered pretty weird and people will shoot eye daggers at you from time to time. So not often, unless I’m smiled at. I’ve no issues with it 😊 44. Trip to outer space or bottom of the ocean? Trip to outer space!!! 45. What makes you get out of bed in the morning? Must be someone worth getting up for or a trip I’ve planned for a while! Also, likely my cat because he won’t stop yelling at times. 46. What are you paranoid about? That everyone will ultimately leave me and that whatever good they say about me is just politeness. 47. Have you ever been high? Never. 48. Have you ever been drunk? Nope. 49. Have you done anything recently that you hope nobody finds out about? I’m too much of a goodie-two-shoes for this shit. 50. What was the colour of the last hoodie you wore? Charcoal grey. 51. Ever wished you were someone else? Yeah. 52. One thing you wish you could change about yourself? If I could make myself better at math, I’d love to. It’d have saved me a lot of school pain. 53. Favourite makeup brand? Not a kind of question you should ever ask me. 54. Favourite store?

The Revelation of All Things - 37. In which a nomad grows tentative roots
Read the full fic on AO3.
Read on Tumblr (desktop)
On their sixth evening in the Emerald Graves, they checked in at the main Inquisition camp, retrieved the day's correspondence, and headed to a nearby stream to relax for a few moments. Evana now sat on a log a little up the hill from the stream as Dorian and Bull washed up from a particularly nasty set of rift demons. Varric sat to her left, cleaning Bianca, of course.
In the pile of reports, Evana found a small note with Leliana's flowing "L" written across the seal and opened it immediately, her curiosity piqued by the tiny scrap of paper so different from the typical missives from Skyhold. She nearly cried when she read it. Leliana's message was nice - sweet, even - though the tone made Evana feel a little bit like she was failing them. But Cullen's addition left her almost sick with longing.
Samson can wait. Come home. -C
He wanted her home. She had a home, now. Why did that feel like a first?
She put her head in her hands and breathed heavily into her worn leather gloves. She should ask for a new pair, but the gift from Harritt had been her first connection to the Inquisition that hadn't felt like something given grudgingly to a prisoner. She'd received many gifts after that, of course, but Harritt's kindness to her in those first few weeks had made her feel wanted. Welcome. As if Haven could be a home, even if only until they closed the Breach. Then, each friend she'd made along the way had forged another link in the chain that bound her to this group, this cause.
But Cullen made it real. Cullen made it feel like home. And despite how claustrophobic the fortress sometimes felt, leaving Skyhold... leaving him got harder each time. She'd adjusted to the long separation, but she still missed him terribly at times, especially when alone. Thankfully, the company of her friends kept the larger part of her melancholy at bay. She couldn't have asked for better companions.
"You alright there, Snowflake?"
Evana startled and looked up. Speaking of...
"Yes... yes, of course. Just... tired."
Varric let out a grunt. She could tell he was about to say something more, but Dorian's laughter coming from the creek caught their attention. Evana glanced over to see the Iron Bull sauntering out of the creek wearing absolutely nothing. Elves didn't have issues with nudity like most humans, but the Qunari was something else altogether. She raised a hand to shield her eyes and turned away, half laughing and half embarrassed. She hadn't blushed that hotly since Dorian tried to get her to talk about Cullen's... attributes during their time in the Western Approach. She had, of course, flatly refused to talk about it. There wasn't much to talk about, anyway, but Dorian didn't need to know that.
"Creators, Bull! Cover that thing up! You'll scare off the natives and all the wildlife." She glanced over again, but Bull just laughed at her and turned around to show off his backside. She rolled her eyes. "What am I going to do with you, Bull?! And people think we Dalish are savages..."
"You know you like it!"
Evana let out an exasperated sigh. She shared a smile with Varric who then shouted back, "I'm sure someone likes it, isn't that right, Sparkler?"
Dorian let out a haughty, fake laugh. "What was that, dwarf? I couldn't hear your sad attempt at humor over the sound of my own brilliant sarcasm."
Varric chuckled, and Evana gave the dwarf a knowing look. Bull and Dorian had been playing cat and mouse the entire trip... well, in truth, Bull had mostly been baiting Dorian with highly descriptive come-ons. It was equal parts hysterically funny and a little bit uncomfortable for her, especially considering how graphic Bull's come-ons tended to be. Dorian met each attempt with disdain, but she wondered if, underneath it all, Dorian wasn't a bit pleased with the attention.
Turning back, she saw Bull and Dorian emerging from the water, the former still naked as the day he was born, the latter properly covered with a swath of fabric. Shivering slightly at the idea of the water, she began packing up her reports and other items, placing them on a relatively clean portion of her lap.
They'd set up a few other outposts to help hold the Emerald Graves, but each night, she'd asked the others to return with her to the main forward camp. She wanted to send her daily report and then sleep in a familiar place. What she really wanted, though, was to be back in her warm bed at Skyhold underneath a mountain of blankets. Exhaustion pierced through her every bone and sinew. She felt as if she could sleep a thousand years, and the warmth of her comfortable shemlen bed called to her. Shivering again, she thought about washing the blood and ichor off her armor, but quickly discarded the idea as the very thought of cold water made her cringe and curl in on herself as she organized her papers.
She furrowed her brows as she folded the note from Skyhold and the letters she'd picked up from the smugglers. For the first time, wondered if she might be a little ill. Something had felt off for a while now, but she couldn't quite place it. The mild weather in the Emerald Graves should have been a refreshing change, especially compared to the sandy dry heat of the Western Approach, but she'd been so cold and tired that she could hardly enjoy it. She tried to remember when she'd started feeling off...
"Shit," she cursed under her breath.
She'd noticed faint chills the day of their visit to the temple in the oasis. She'd managed to open all the doors in the cold magic tombs before she'd run out of shards. Why she hadn't put two and two together before, she had no idea. The heat of the Western Approach had perhaps made it less noticeable? Fear pricked at the back of her mind as she wondered whether she might have done herself real harm. Time to go home.
"Good news, everyone!" she called out suddenly. "We ride for Skyhold tomorrow at dawn."
Bull just gave the thumbs up from his seat down by the creek, but Dorian looked at her with relief written all over his face as he shouted up to her. "Finally! I'll need a hot bath, a bed and a large glass of wine the instant we arrive, not necessarily in that order. Maybe two glasses of wine... or a whole bottle."
To her left, Varric's softer voice chimed in. "I'm also glad to hear that, Snowflake. We've had a rough time with so much traveling around." Varric paused cleaning Bianca to give Evana a discerning look. "Are you sure you're alright?"
Varric had already mentioned his concern a couple of times in the past few days, but she'd laughed it off, assured him she was just tired. She tried to uncurl herself, but now that she'd recognized the illness, it seemed that much stronger.
"I'm just tired, Varric. And... cold."
Varric gave her the "Aww, shit!" look. "You're cold? How can you be cold in this weather?"
"I - I don't know. I just am. I think..." She paused and looked away, blushing slightly, then turned back to give him a sardonic smile. "... I might be having a reaction to the magic from the temple."
The look intensified. "Andraste's tits! Yeah, we're definitely heading back tomorrow. And next time, don't try to be a hero. Let us know you're not feeling well, will you?"
"I didn't really notice until now," she offered weakly. "It's subtle. And I think it's worse because of the lack of sleep."
Varric stood up and snapped Bianca in place on his back. "Alright, that's it. Get up. You're going to bed right now."
She frowned and looked at the sky. "But it's only seven... maybe seven thirty..."
"And you'll be asleep before eight. Come on, your Inquisitorialness. Let's go." He turned to the other two, who were still sitting together down by the creek. "Snowflake and I are heading back to camp. Remember, we're leaving before dawn, so don't stay up too late."
"Yes, mother," Dorian called back as he waved them off. "I'll be sure to clean my teeth and wash behind my ears before bed, too."
Varric walked with her up the hill to the camp and found her an empty tent. After she pulled off her soiled armor, she reemerged to request a few blankets. She caught the odd looks out of the corner of her eyes, but in the end, she walked back to her tent with an armful of blankets and assurances that she was welcome to them - no one else wanted them in this weather. Varric had stayed behind to speak to the ranking officer in the camp, and soon after, she noticed that the camp had gone from noisy to dead silent. For her. So she could sleep. Such deference still made her uncomfortable, but she couldn't complain. In the quiet, the sounds of the forest gradually seeped into her tent, cradling her in familiarity - the perfect lullaby for a forest nomad.
As she piled the blankets on top of her and huddled into a ball to conserve warmth, she sent up a small prayer of thanks to her gods - all of them - that she'd been blessed with such amazing friends. It took some time to warm up enough to sleep, but she felt herself drifting soon enough. She fell asleep to the sound of Varric speaking quietly to someone outside her tent.
**
Dorian glared at her disapprovingly as they rode side-by-side down the path. "Varric and I spoke last night, and we've agreed - you're never to be trusted with your own health again. If I'd known about your previous issues taking care of yourself in the Fallow Mire, I would've been more alert to your idiocy."
Evana could think of nothing to say, so she remained silent. This seemed to irritate Dorian even more.
"Honestly, Evana, I thought you had more sense than this."
"Clearly, I don't, so you can stop being surprised from here on out."
Her tone came out flat, the exhaustion she felt exhibited in every labored breath between phrases. She wasn't angry. Not really. She knew his reaction came from his fear for her. But his sarcastic disapproval made it difficult for her to speak the reassuring words she knew he wanted to hear - that she would be fine, that it was nothing.
In truth, she didn't know if it was nothing. Her body shook involuntarily from the cold, but it hadn't seemed to worsen since yesterday evening. The exhaustion still plagued her, but the long sleep last night had taken the edge off. She needed Solas to reassure her. How could she comfort Dorian before then?
She'd long ago realized that she no longer had the luxury of surety - if she'd ever really had it. People wanted assurance that she could defeat Corypheus. That she'd been sent by Andraste. But she couldn't tell them that for sure. Josephine seemed to think it necessary to reassure people she was, in fact, Andraste's Herald, but it felt like a lie. Just like reassuring Dorian now would feel like a lie.
"Well, you could at least be a little sorry about it," he muttered.
She sighed heavily and then shivered violently. Dorian reached out to rub her back, and she immediately felt the warmth radiating off his hand. She leaned into his hand while giving him a grateful smile.
"OK. I'm sorry," she placated. "Does that help?"
His hand remained, pouring glorious warmth into her body, but his voice turned petulant. "Not really."
"Will you keep doing that anyway?"
"Of course," he replied haughtily, as if he were offended that she'd asked such a silly question.
She patted his leg and then turned her attention back to the trail in front of them, concentrating on maneuvering her horse through the rocky terrain. They had elected to take the flat route between the Exalted Plains and the Emprise du Lion up to the Imperial Highway. Varric and Bull were scouting ahead to find the last leg of a trail the Inquisition soldiers had sworn would get them to the Imperial Highway and then back to Skyhold in less than three days. Dorian continued to push warming magic into her back as they rode together in silence. After a few minutes, she heard a rider approaching, and then Varric appeared. "Trail is just ahead, Snowflake. Think you can ride hard for a while?"
Dorian's warmth had made her feel almost human again, and she nodded vigorously. "If it means getting back to Skyhold sooner, I can."
Dorian patted her back then withdrew his hand. "That's my girl."
She rounded the bend and saw the trail stretching out in front of them, wide and smooth. Once they reached Bull, the four of them set off, riding as hard as the horses would allow. They reached the highway and rode on, making camp later that evening and rising before dawn to continue down the road. Evana felt like she hadn't slept at all, but the promise of a warm bed in just another day and a half pushed her onward. They made it nearly to the Frostbacks by dusk that evening, and being so close, they pushed on until dark. When they finally made camp, Evana struggled to stay awake long enough to get the saddle off her horse. Bull finally took it from her and pushed her gently toward the bedroll Dorian had laid out for her.
"Go. We'll take care of all this."
"But the watch," she protested. "I didn't take one last night either. I want to pull my weight."
Bull laughed quietly. "Then, based on our weight ratios, you get the first fifteen minutes, and I'll take the next four hours. Besides, we've only got a few hours ride until we reach Skyhold. We'll sleep when we get back."
She relented, but only because she could barely keep her eyes open even while standing up. The next morning, she saw the weariness in her companions as they saddled the horses and prepared to ride, and the twinge of guilt pinched her hard. They were doing all this for her. Because they believed in her - believed she could make things better.
Creators, please let them be right.
They rode into Skyhold with quite a bit more fanfare than usual. Usually, she didn't arrive back until late in the evening after the torches had been lit. Now, though, everyone stopped to welcome and bow to her as she rode past the gates and toward the stables. She wished they wouldn't, but she held herself high anyway. They could not see her weak.
Once they reached the stables, Dorian immediately helped her off the horse, and Bull grabbed her bags while Varric headed toward the keep. Dorian tried to put an arm around her, but she held him off.
"No, I can't be seen needing assistance. It will only worry people. I'll take the back stairs through the basement to get to Solas."
Dorian muttered something about her being an "infuriatingly stubborn woman" as he walked ahead of her up the stairs. Once she passed through the kitchen, however, the other mage was waiting to assist her. And good thing, too - even with help, mounting the stairs to Josephine's office wiped her out. The ambassador wasn't in her office, so Dorian half dragged, half carried her to a chair by the fireplace.
"Just rest now," he ordered as he knelt beside her and pushed more blessed warmth into her body. "Varric will bring Solas to you."
Unable to keep her eyes open, she relaxed into the plush chair by the fire as the warmth radiated from Dorian's hand and Josie's hearty fire and leeched into her frozen limbs. The door opened a moment later, and Solas and Varric entered, speaking in low tones as they approached.
"Lethallan, tell me how you are feeling."
She pried her eyes open to see Solas kneeling beside her, a surprising flicker of concern in his expression. She struggled to sit up taller.
"Tired and cold. I can't seem to get warm since the temple."
Varric spoke up. "We ended up going into the temple in the oasis. She opened some stone boxes and pretty lights flew around the room for a moment before ... entering her, I guess?"
Solas arched an eyebrow. "Pretty lights?"
Varric shrugged. "I don't know what you'd call them. They were wispy and glowed. That's all I know."
"Likely some sort of imbuing magic," Dorian clarified. "I felt nothing malignant about it, however. It's a bit of a mystery why she's reacting so poorly."
Solas and Dorian began debating the finer points of magic theory, and though she tried to keep track of the conversation, she found her eyes drifting shut again. She vaguely registered another person entering the room in a rush, but it wasn't until she heard him speak that she knew Cullen had arrived. The anxiety in his voice made her want to get up and comfort him, but her body wouldn't obey any of her commands. She shivered violently and opened her eyes long enough to see Solas leaning over her again, his hands hovering just above her body. Her eyes searched for Cullen, and she found him pacing in front of the fire. He met her gaze, his face etched with worry bordering on panic.
"Her body is simply adjusting to her new resistance," Solas concluded. "She has apparently been imbued with additional resistance to cold magic, but it is currently causing her to feel the cold more acutely. It will pass, and more quickly with rest and relaxation."
"You're sure? How can you tell?"
Cullen's voice reflected his doubt, but Solas answered with patience. "I am familiar with her aura. It has changed - become stronger. It may be that this is a one-time adjustment or she may have to endure this with each new type of resistance she gains. It is difficult to predict such things without having been there to assess the temple and the type of magic imbuing the resistance. I have settled her magic as best I can, but right now, the best thing for her will be sleep and warmth."
Relieved, Evana opened her eyes and tried to sit up from where she slouched in the chair. Solas had told her what she needed to hear. She wasn't dying, so she didn't need special treatment.
"Ma serannas, lethallin. I will head to my quarters."
She barely got halfway out of the chair before Dorian, Cullen and Solas surrounded her. The others hesitated, but Cullen immediately took hold of her, pulling her from the chair and placing and protective arm around her waist once he'd steadied her.
"Really, I'm fine," she forced herself to say, even though his warm, solid presence comforted her in a way she couldn't define. "To avoid gossip, I should attempt to make it to my quarters alone."
Dorian waggled his fingers in front of her. "Ah, but I can provide the warmth. You're going to stand there and tell me you'll have enough focus and energy left after climbing that loooong flight of stairs to warm your own bed? I think not. Let the tongues wag. You need me."
Cullen loosened his hold enough that she could turn and face him. His eyes betrayed his concern, but he seemed much calmer after Solas' proclamation.
"Dorian is right. You need rest, and he can help you with that." He briefly squeezed her hip before dipping his head and lowering his voice to add, "I'll check on you later."
She gazed into the golden eyes she'd so missed and reluctantly assented to be escorted upstairs by Dorian. Cullen seemed just as reluctant to let her go, but finally, he handed her off to Dorian. Thankfully, only a couple of nobles who had taken to hanging around the great hall were there to see her enter the hall with Dorian's arm around her waist. Just as they were turning to head toward her quarters, Cassandra entered the great hall from the courtyard. She walked quickly down the hall to meet them. "Inquisitor! I heard you had returned. May I assist you?"
"Yes, thank you, Cassandra."
The two had her upstairs in no time. They found a full tub of water waiting for her, so Dorian heated the water as Cassandra helped her undress. She felt a little self conscious in front of Dorian, but the mage just laughed at her.
"Darling, I find you beautiful in the same way I find a sunset beautiful. You are aesthetically pleasing to me, but nothing more."
"That's... good to know, I suppose."
"Take it as a compliment, Your Worship. I don't give them often, but for you, I'll make an exception. Because you've rather grown on me these past few months."
She smiled at him. "That must be why you haven't ditched me for your own bath and a bottle of wine."
Dorian mocked offense, but then shrugged. "Believe you me, I'll get there soon enough. You'll be asleep in no time after your bath."
Indeed, she felt herself drifting to sleep several times before she finally finished cleaning herself entirely. Dorian warmed the water a few times to make sure she wasn't cold and then placed a warming spell in the air around her as she got out and toweled herself dry. He dried her hair while Cassandra pulled out a thick sleeping gown, quickly heated her bed and guided her underneath the blankets.
Evana looked at the mage from her pile of heated blankets. "Dorian, go. You're exhausted. Cassandra will stay here with me, won't you?"
"Of course, Your Worship."
Dorian looked at her through narrowed eyes, but finally shrugged, kissed her on the forehead and practically waltzed out of the room with an "As you wish!"
She laughed weakly at him and then turned to Cassandra, who was now standing a bit awkwardly beside her bed. Evana patted the side of the bed.
"Have a seat. I doubt this will take long. I'm having trouble keeping my eyes open already."
Cassandra hesitated for a moment, but then perched gingerly on the very edge of the bed. "I hope you are comfortable, Inquisitor."
"Yes, thank you. I'm warm for the moment at least." Evana paused, then decided now was as good a time as any. "Cassandra?"
"Yes?"
"Would you call me Evana? Not all the time, of course, but when we're among friends?"
Cassandra seemed a little surprised but answered almost immediately. "I would be happy to... Evana."
"And you don't mind if I call you Cass, do you? If you do, I'll stop right now - I promise."
"I have always tried to avoid the nickname in public, but - as with you - if we only use the name in private, I do not mind."
Evana smiled, but then her face quickly grew serious again. "Oh, I forgot! Could you get the papers from my bag and give them to Cullen? He's waiting for them. I didn't want to risk sending them by crow."
Cassandra smiled and stood from the bed. "I am happy to."
She watched the Seeker pick up a bag to retrieve the letters, but her eyelids were too heavy to watch the progress any more than that. She drifted off to the quiet sound of shuffling papers.
**
Evana slept like the dead for hours. She woke once toward evening to relieve herself and eat some broth and bread brought up by Cassandra. After shivering herself warm enough to fall asleep again, she woke a second time in the darkness. She had no idea of the time, but the coldness of the room as well as her full bladder told her it was probably two or three in the morning. She threw the covers back and sucked in a breath as the cold hit her. In the dim light of the dying fire, she barely saw the dark form at the side of her bed before she tripped over it.
"Fenedhis! What-?" "Oooff!!"
After several seconds of flailing limbs, she found herself sitting on the floor, or rather on the lap of someone sitting on the floor. Too weak to summon any magic, she tried to push away but found herself encircled by rather familiar pair of arms.
"Cullen?" "Yes. I'm here." "Wha- what are you doing on the floor, vhenan?"
His pause let her know he was somewhat embarrassed at being caught. "I- I came to check on you, but you were asleep. I thought I'd wait for a while to see if you woke up, and then... I fell asleep."
Her muddled brain still couldn't comprehend his words. "On the floor?"
"Yes? Where else would I..."
"On the couch perhaps, or better yet, in the bed with me, keeping me warm. I'm so c-cold."
As if on cue, her body convulsed with the cold and his warm arms circled around her more tightly. She hummed in appreciation. Unfortunately, it also reminded her why she'd woken in the first place.
"I have to... uh... take care of something. I'll be back."
She returned from her private room to find Cullen, sans armor, sitting on the edge of her bed and looking at her rather shyly in the light of the fire he'd built up in her absence. Even with the extra heat, her body shook with the cold. She ran past him and snuggled down into the blankets, but it was too late. The bed had gone cold. She reached up and tugged at his arm gently.
"P-please, will you stay awhile? I'm so c-cold. At least until I g-get warm? Then you can go... if you w-want."
Cullen didn't say anything. Instead, he pulled off his boots and slid under the blankets next to her. She scooted toward him, and he reached out to pull her back against him, wrapping around her small body in a cocoon of delicious warmth. She let out a loud gush of air as her back met with his solid chest.
"Creators... h-how are you s-so warm?"
He chuckled softly in her ear as his warm breath fanned her neck. "I don't know, but I'm glad I can be of use."
She reached back and pulled his arm around her under the covers. "I m-missed y-you. And n-not just because you're w-warm."
He laughed outright. "I'm glad of that." She felt his lips brush her ear and then her neck, and a different kind of shiver spread through her body. His voice was hesitant as he continued. "But mostly, I- I'm simply glad you have returned and that you... Solas says you will be well soon." He paused and took a deep breath before whispering, "I... I missed you so much."
She couldn't respond. Her heart was too full. She let the silence lay over them like a comfortable blanket as his warmth radiated through her. The shivers diminished to the occasional shudder. Each time a shudder ran through her, she would feel an almost imperceptible tightening of Cullen's arm around her, as if he were trying to pull her even closer. She felt herself beginning to drift again, but part of her wanted to stay awake - to savor the feel of him so close to her. It couldn't last, though. She was far too tired to keep sleep at bay.
She woke again mid morning, and she was alone. Someone had left a tray of porridge and some fruit on her bedside table, and they must have built up the fire again, too. She assumed Cullen had left as soon as she'd fallen asleep, but she couldn't be sure.
She smiled to herself as she recalled the feeling of his body next to hers. Her craving for his touch still surprised her. Even something as simple as a brush of the back of his hand was enough to fluster her completely. To feel him next to her, the length of his body curling around her - it was almost too much.
And yet not enough.
She threw back the covers and realized that, for the first time in days, she didn't feel like she might freeze to death. The occasional chill ran through her, but she didn't want to stay in bed any longer. Opening the curtains wide, she let the sunlight filter into the room and then sat down in the expanse of sun cutting across the carpeted floor. She heated the stone cold porridge and began sifting through four weeks of reports. The mountainous pile was daunting, but she soon realized a majority were simply reports from her advisors to keep her informed about matters they'd dealt with in her absence. She dug in and started reading.
A couple of hours later, the sun had shifted angles, so she grabbed a blanket and transferred her work to the couch. Slightly after the noon hour, she heard a faint click of her lock and rattle at the door. Solas appeared at the top of the stairs with a tray in hand.
"Good morning... or should I say afternoon?" she called to him.
Solas turned in the direction of her voice and nodded to her. "I have brought you some broth and bread for lunch... unless you feel well enough to come downstairs?"
Evana didn't want to stay in bed, but she also had no desire to show herself to anyone either. "I think I'd like to stay bundled up here next to the fire, if that's alright with my friends and advisors."
Solas gave her a soft smile as he approached with the tray. "Ma nuvenin, lethallan. I also came up to examine you briefly. May I? I would like to confirm that the adjustment of your body to the new resistance is progressing as I thought it might."
"Of course."
Solas set the tray on the table and crouched in front of her. He raised his hands to hover close to her as she sat. His magic flowed over her, and she briefly closed her eyes, feeling herself pulled toward him. Confused, she flushed slightly and glanced at Solas. Thankfully, he was not looking at her face. She swallowed hard and tried to focus on something - anything - else. After a few moments, he nodded and stood.
"It is as I thought. I have further settled your magic, but keep yourself warm and continue to rest today. You should be back to normal by tomorrow."
He then bowed and turned away, as if he were going to leave. The words left her mouth before she could think better of them.
"Will you not keep me company for a while, Solas?"
He looked back at her and a shadow passed across his face. The next moment, the shadow disappeared as if it had never been, and he turned back to sit in the space she cleared for him on the couch.
"I am glad that you are feeling better," he began quietly. "Dorian and I have discussed the various possibilities and have yet to come up with a viable explanation to the severity of your reaction. However, I do not believe you were in any real danger, despite appearances."
"Ma serannas. I have to admit - I was relieved by your assurances yesterday. I thought perhaps... perhaps I might have been foolish to just accept the magic instead of be wary of it."
"You were worried you had poisoned yourself with magic?"
"It is possible."
Solas considered. "Yes, I suppose it is for lesser people. But you are not one of those lesser people. You are strong and wise and willful. I have great respect for you, lethallan."
Her mouth gaped open, but she quickly shut it and smiled warmly at him. "Ma serannas. I feel the same about you, lethallin. I respect you and your talents greatly."
A sad smile passed over his face, but it quickly faded to serenity. "The peace talks at Halamshiral are approaching quickly. Have you thought of who you will take with you?"
"There are so many reasons I might take each of you. I think I've settled on Cassandra for sure. She'll hate it all, but her connection to nobility lends credence to our position in the Game."
Solas nodded thoughtfully. "Have you considered Cole? He might help you sort through all the intrigue."
"I thought of that, but I'm worried so many people would be distracting for him. I'll certainly consider it. I'd rather let Varric rest before the assault on Adamant. And Sera..."
"Would not do well in a ballroom full of nobles."
Evana sighed and shot Solas a wry grin. "Precisely. This is another moment when I feel I did our cause an injustice by ignoring Madame de Fer's invitation up to now. She would be an asset in this situation. I guess I'll see when I meet with her in Halamshiral."
"I understand your point, but I feel I must caution you. She is misguided about mages and believes that Circles are a good thing. She is willfully stubborn. Nothing you say will ever change that - which means instead of a help during this time, she would be constantly questioning your decisions. We do not need her. She needs us. Do not forget that."
Evana tried to hide her grin but finally gave up. "We are of one mind on that, at least."
"I have found us to be of one mind on a great many things. Those few things on which we do not see eye to eye should not define our relationship, do you not agree?"
She tried not to react to Solas' word choice but answered carefully nonetheless. "I do agree. I value your friendship and council. I hope we can always be as open and honest with each other as we are now."
Solas said nothing but turned his eyes away from her. They sat for a few moments in silence. Then he shook his head.
"I should go."
"Oh... alright." He stood and walked to the door, but she stopped him with her words. "Whatever it is, Solas - whatever makes you sad - I'm sorry for it."
His back was still to her, straight and tense. After a moment, he turned his head slightly toward her and spoke.
"I know, lethallan."
He quickly disappeared down the stairs, and she was left alone with her reports once more. Despite her time with Solas practicing her focus, learning new spells and reviewing healing spells, he was still a mystery to her - impenetrable and a little bit frightening - but he'd always been kind.
Kind but distant and uncommunicative... just like Hanir.
And suddenly, her initial wariness of him made a lot more sense. She knew logically that they weren't the same person, of course, but the similarities had been enough for her to keep her distance - that and her distinct feeling that he was hiding something. The feeling had only grown since she'd known him, and unlike Varric, she knew she hadn't uncovered the source of her gut feeling.
Solas' secrets were not her concern, however. Or, at least she hoped they weren't. It seemed secrets in the inner circle always ended up being connected to the Inquisition in one way or another.
Her eyes wandered to the reports sitting in her lap, but she pushed them aside to eat. Bull had harped at her constantly about her eating - or lack thereof - so she'd taken to eating whatever they put in front of her whether hungry or not. Although she hadn't gained any weight with the travel rations, she hadn't lost anything in the last couple of weeks either. She wasn't about to give Bull another reason to be mother hen. Besides, she still had a few more hours of reading reports to get through the stack on her desk. Then maybe she'd take a nap.
Yes, an afternoon nap sounded like just the thing.

How much damage will the other drivers insurance have to pay?
My son was involved in a collision this morning. The driver of the other vehicle pulled out right in front of him and he rear-ended them. The driver of the other vehicle was cited for failure to yield and the state trooper that handled the accident said that the collision was unavoidable on my sons part. The question concerning me is that my son did not pay anything for the car he was driving because it was given to him by my daughter. The car has a salvage title because it had apparently been totalled before but had been restored. The car probably would not be worth very much even had it never been in an accident because it is a 1986 year model Pontiac 6000. Now he is without transportation unless I provide it. Will they only be required to pay a salvage price for damages or what?

Where should I look for health insurance for my mom?

Currently, they are seeking alternatives so that my dad is covered under insurance through his company and my mom can get coverage through a third party company at a lower rate. The rate they are asking my father to pay to have both of them on the coverage policy is insanely high. I pay about $55 a month for health insurance and they are at least quadruple that. I'm looking for suggestions for a reliable and trusted company (Aetna, Anthem, etc.) that would provide individual health insurance at an affordable rate, if anyone knows of anything.""
SSN check for auto insurance - WHY ?
I've received a number of answers for the question. It seems that in a number of cases the quote that's received depends on how good or bad your credit is. What's the difference if someone has bad credit, as long as he's a good driver? Insurance premiums are paid in advance so why the credit check ?""

Car insurance and roommate with DWI?
I mentioned to a friend of a friend that he could stay with me for a few months to get back on his feet. He will be getting unemployment checks and he is overall pretty clean.

State farm car insurance question?
My bf was in an accident recently where he was rear ended at a stop light. The other driver was ticketed and no one is contesting the fact that the other driver is at fault. My bf decided to go through the other driver's insurance (state farm) rather than his own so that he wouldn't have to pay a deductible. He needs about $600 worth of body work done. After going through all the hoops, he was told to take the car to a local body shop & that he would be approved for a rental car while it was being repaired. Today, he took the car to the shop, but they told him they won't take it until March 21st (about 3 weeks from now). Until then, they expect him to drive his DAMAGED car. He drives long distances pretty frequently (usually visits me an hour and a half away every week or two) and neither of us are comfortable with the idea of him getting on the interstate in a damaged car. What recourse does he have in this situation? It seems pretty unfair that the accident was someone else's fault entirely and he is going to be stuck waiting almost a month to be put whole again :( I suggested that he call state farm and let them know that he's not satisfied with their solution, but he doesn't think it will get him anywhere. Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing? Thoughts in general?""

Car Insurance - Accident (Please Advise)?
Today an OAP came driving down a one-way carpark (trying to get my car parking space). In the process, she attempted to drive along the side of my car to get to the space, and scraped the side of my car and bumper. She said she would give me 20. But i said that i haven't got a clue how much the cost would be and im sure 20 wouldn't cover me. So she decided for us to drive to the local police station. The LSTO took both our details, and said for us to go through the insurance company, as the OAP was in the wrong and liable. When we left the police station she said she has previously written off a car earlier this year, and doesn't want to go through the insurance company! She gave me her home telephone number and said for me to get a quote and she'll pay for it. I got the quote - its 450. after she offered 20, i don't know if she will pay this amount!

Can I purchase two insurance policies for one vehicle?
Just wondered if anyone knew if it was possible to have 2 car insurance policies on one car? The situation is this: I share an insurance policy with my mom and its under her name. We have recently renewed our policy for a year and are getting a good rate. However, last week I have gotten a DUI and most likely will have my license suspended. In order to reinstate it I will have to file an SR22 form with an insurance company. I heard that one way to keep your current policy (if the current preferred company does not find out about your DUI violation- which they wouldnt for another year), is to buy minimum liability with one of our companies with an SR22 filing. This way DMV is satisfied because you have made your filing - and since your current company has not found out about your drunk driving offense - you are able to keep your current policy. I need to know asap if this is possible so would really appreciate any replies! Thanks""

Car Insurance Coverage and a DUI Question?
My daughter received a DUI a while back, as she put the car in 'Drive' (instead of 'Reverse') and drove through the side of a restaurant. (closed, thank God!...No people there) She refused the Breathalyzer, and was taken to the ER for about 7 hours. She was given a DUI. This car was titled, registered and insured by me- I am her mother. She is over 30 years old. The insurance has covered to fix the car, but the restaurant has retained an attorney. (I live in SC and have $100,000 property damage on the car) Yesterday, my insurance adjustor called to ask for a release of my daughter's medical records, so they could meet with the restaurant's attorneys and show that she was not drunk. Well, she was drunk, and my daughter's attorney has told me not to release that information, as it is a violation of her rights- she already refused the breathalyzer, etc.Also, she WAS drunk, and this would only release that information possibly to others. Please no rude comments about all of this- I get it! Question: Can my insurance company refuse to pay for my daughter's ER bill ($13,000) AND the property damage, AND whatever else- due to the fact that they are going to decide she was 'drunk.' ??? Is there any way to protect my assets? Specifics would be great, if you know them. Thanks.""

The problem we have is that our motability car goes back in October. We're in a rural location so we need a car ready for when the switch over happens. At present with the motability insurance their insurance only insures one vehicle, the motability one, and can't have additional vehicles added to it. We've got a few quotes from insurance companies who have told us that when the motability lease expires they will give us the no claim discount based on the motabiity insurance, but they wont give us that discount until the motability car goes back. So what we want to do is get the new car before October, put it on the drive, check everything is ok with it, and then insure it when we start using it on the road when the motability vehicle goes back. Only problem is with this new law we can't do that without declaring the vehicle SORN. Some of the vehicles we've seen come with a few months road tax, so we don't really want to lose that by declaring it SORN, just for a few weeks (or is the tax disc still valid when you remove the SORN on the car?), we also don't want to insure the vehicle before the motability vehicle goes back as we wont get any NCB from the new insurer and that will cost us about an extra 500 in insurance (our current insurance price is about 500-600 but with 0 years no claims it goes up to around 1,000-1,100 - we have 3 years no claims with motability and I've held my driving licence for 6 years). I've read that you don't need this compulsory insurance if the vehicle is in trade, or between registered owners. That is one option, but how long after you buy a vehicle can you keep it in that status, would we be able to keep it like that for a few weeks or is it pretty much instant when we get the car. Obviously I realise I would need some kind of temporary one day insurance to drive the vehicle home after purchase.""

""Young adult, no health insurance, I need help!?""
I am going to make this simple as possible: During this year, Jan to March, I have been on my parent's insurance, NJ FamilyCare, which we were enrolled under free-care because we were horribly under the poverty line, or above it? We're poor, that's it. And on April 1st, I was terminated from my insurance, they are saying I am 19 years of age, thus I have no insurance. Late August we (as a family) re-applied with all our names, and sent the papers in. But with a lot of research, I knew I shouldn't have been, under the Affordable Care Act I should have been on my parent's insurance until the age of 26. I meet the requirements: 1. Dependent Adult (19 years old) 2. Full - time student, no college insurance. 3. No insurance for 6 months now. 4. Not employed. I know for a fact, that being a full-time student, and being unemployed, shouldn't affect this, but maybe it is? I talked to a representative from the welfare office, (where my parents applied) and the lady (rudely) told me that because I am 19, and in school, I was terminated. And my social worker won't be done looking at the papers until late November. WTF? That doesn't make sense, so I kept the battle on, and told her that I should be covered under the law. But after some bullsh*tting around, she hung up on me. So I called again. And this time, another lady was saying, her son who is 20 years old, is insured under her insurance, and that I should come in with my parents, and tell our social worker that I am a full time student, who can't afford to be employed, (because of my 21 credit semester), I am dependent, and I have no job. I was like, well, it's not like I don't want a job, I just can't find the time to have one. I used to work 12 hour shifts, so don't think I don't like to work. The main reason I need the insurance, is because of my ADHD and Mania. I also always get sick, and have kidney problems. But with this, I still can't imagine why I was terminated. The lady told me I shouldn't have been under the law, but different people have different ideas... So, I will go to my social worker on the Tuesday, and find out what's happening. But I know I should be covered, and at least for my sake until I am 23-24. To which I plan to graduate and get my own insurance, and home. But if it doesn't work out, what other low-payment options are there? I heard about NJ Protect, but it's expensive on my part, and no way can I burden my parents with out-of-pocket payments. Thanks in advance.""

Auto insurance question - I hit a big pothole..?
Saturday night I hit a big pothole and a few miles later my tire was completely flat and actually had holes big enough to stick a few fingers through. I took it to a tire repair shop and the rim was bent as a result of the tire going flat. They've found a replacement rim, but it doesn't match the other 3 on the car.. I would like all matching rims, but a complete set with tires is about $800. Would something like this be covered by auto insurance? The cost of the mismatched replacement rim and 2 new tires is $350, my comprehensive deductible is $500, but I would pay the $500 if insurance covered 4 MATCHING rims.. So basically I'm wondering: 1) Is this something auto insurance would cover? 2) Would they just cover any replacement rim, even if it didn't match the other 3 or 3) Would they pay for a whole new set of rims? If anyone worked for an insurance company and might know the answer that would be great..""

I called their 24 hour customer service and spoke with someone who said they'd put in the request to cancel the policy again. I log into my bank today and they WITHDREW my March payment!

How to insure a used car off of the lot with no previous insurance?
I have never had insurance in my name before (my parents had me under their insurance within the past 6 months, but I am now not insured, nor driving a vehicle). I am interested in buying a car from a buy here, pay here lot and I don't quite understand how it works as far as insuring the vehicle off of the lot goes.

This is so ridiculous to me, to pay for insurance twice?! I just want to know the legal & affordable & practical way of insuring this vehicle. Is it not possible to be at the dealership, buy the car, get insurance over the phone while still on the lot, and then drive it home? Because I realize that the dealer will not let you drive it off of the lot if you don't have insurance. Also, how will they know I have the insurance? Since I currently do not have any, I won't have an insurance card or anything material to provide as proof... will they accept an over-the-phone affirmation by the insurance company as proof?""

Does a ticket for not having insurance increase your insurance rate?
I'm a professional driver of a honda civic for a major company in California. My corporation has a policy that says if you have 3 or more dings on your record in 5 years (dings classified as anything that would increase their cost for your insurance policy) that you lose your job. 3 years ago I got a ticket for going 5 miles through a stop sign, that was #1, 8 months ago I got a speeding ticket for 78 in a 65, that was #2. Tonight I went through a DUI checkpoint, I had everything except my insurance policy was 8 days past due. The officer and myself figured I just had an outdated card and all I needed was proof of insurance. It turns out, for some stupid reason, gieco didn't auto-renew my insurance policy, and I simply didn't have insurance for 8 days. I called my insurance company, got everything taken care of, but I still have a ticket for driving without insurance, which I imagine means a ding on my record. What I need to know is does that ding increase the cost of insurance in the state of California? If so I'm fired as soon as this ticket hits DMV.""

Question about newborn insurance coverage under the mother's plan?
With the birth of my first two children, any claims that were submitted to the insurance company for the first 30 days were paid under my plan. After that, I could elect to add them to my policy or not. I had a baby 30 days ago and they're denying his claims. I've called Humana (a new insurance for me since the birth of my first children) and they assured me that the claims for him would be paid, and that they would NOT add him to my policy (he has separate insurance). I was just at Humana's website searching for a provider (for myself) and it appears they've added him and made my deductible of $2,000 go up to $4,000 (family coverage). Is this correct? I thought it was state or federal law or something that newborns are covered under the mother's policy for the first 30 days. Can someone help?""

18 years of age, recently got my license more than a month ago. Looking into this 2003 Ford Taurus I found at a dealership (4 door).... Parents are saying insurance will cost around $300 a month! excluding the car payment which will be around $200 a month. For some reason, I don't believe them what so ever with the cost of the insurance. I do have to get full coverage insurance. But thats just ridiculous. New drivers, how much do you pay for insurance. Only answer if your on your own plan.""
Would I be able to get sr22 insurance and drive a family car?
So I need sr22 insurance, but I dont own a car. I have heard two different answers on this from the same auto insurance company (vern fonk). I used to drive my familys car and I had asked them when I went in can I drive that car if I get sr22 insurance and they said no because they have insurance on it, but than when my dad said I could drive the car and that they didnt know what they were talking about I decided to call back. I explained it to the guy on the phone at vern fonk and he said if i get the non owners auto insurance than I can drive any car including theres because I would have liability insurance. Which one is true? because I would like to be able to drive again and cant afford a car right now.""
What car insurance is best/cheapest?
I am going to be getting a used car from my uncle and would like to know your opinion on what car insurance to get. My parents wont put me on their plan(this is my first car btw) so I have to get my own. I need a cheaper plan considering I only work during the summer as of now(thinking of getting a job on my college campus next semester). Any help would be good(your experience etc) I tried going onto the General insurance website(commercials say their cheap) for a quote but they keep on sending me to a Geico website, has anyone else had this problem? Thanks in advance for answering.(BTW I am a girl, I know that we get cheeper insurance typically for some reason lol and I also went through drivers ed in the past and I know most companies will give me a discount for that)""

Hi! Im not certain how things exactly work in the USA with insurance. 1) Is it compulsory? 2) Secondly, if I have insurance and suppose I want a procedure that insurance will not cover such as laser eye surgery (elective ) or say an elective cesarean. If I am willing to pay for the procedure myself can the doctor refuse to treat me and deny the procedure just because Im insurance isnt paying?

Is it legal for an insurance company to have a totaled car repaired and give it back to the owner?
The car was already determined to be totaled by the insurance company because the cost to repair the car exceeded 70% of the fair value of the car but not the total fair value. Instead of giving us the fair value, however, the insurance company decided to have the car repaired and give it back to us because it still cost the insurance company less money. Now it is apparent that car does not function as well as before.""

""Insurance Claim estimate lower than expected, what do I do?""
An elderly lady backed up into my car a few days ago and we decided it'd be best to file an insurance claim. After the claim was ruled in my favor I was sent to a body shop for an estimate of the repair. The damage was to the rear quarter panel of my car which consisted of a scrape across the panel and a quarter sized dent in the panel. The insurance adjuster gave me an estimate and check for 855$. My question is in regards to the repairs, I feel that since this is 100% the other party's fault and since I am the person who has to drive the car that I am entitled to the maximum premium in repairs. I have been reading on Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) and most will say that its the cheap way of making a repair. Does anyone know if it would be possible to go back and get a new estimate/settlement for a new rear quarter panel? Basically my logic is this, if you damage any of my property it should be 100% my call if I want to settle for a compromise or not.""

Will my car be fixed even though car insurance runs out?
Hi there. A car came into me the other day and bumped my car, I have fully comp insurance which runs out january 11th in my mums name, but i am the named driver. The car will have to have quite a bit of work done so im guessing it wont be fixed before this date. The other drivers insurance will be paying for the cost, the insurance and car is in my mums name, and I want to change myself to the owner (official through DVLA) and take out my own insurance before 11th instead of renewing with the smae company. Will they carrying on fixing the car if the insursance who have delt with the claim has run out, also will if be wrong if the car was in my name before the car was returned to my mum. I hope this makes sense, and i hope someone can help thanks.""

Does my mom HAVE to be on MY car insurance?
So here's the deal -- I am getting a new car soon and my mom wants me to get my own insurance so her bill doesn't go up (she normally pays $70/month, but once I was added to her policy the bill went up $85 -- and that was with just ONE car). And now that I am getting my own car, my mom knows that the insurance is going to sky rocket and that is why she wants me to have my own insurance. However -- according to all these insurance companies, my mom and I HAVE to add each other as drivers onto our policies since we live in the same household. My problem is this -- why is it that when I am getting a quote online and I add my mom as a driver (but have her EXCLUDED from the policy), the price is $1183 every 6 months, yet when I DON'T include her as a driver at all, the price drops down to $854? Do I HAVE to add my mom onto my car insurance even though she has her own policy with a different company and won't be driving my car -- ever? Seriously, the only time she will be in my car is when I am driving, and god forbid I do get into an accident, this insurance company covers myself and any relative that resides in the household. So would I REALLY have to add my mom onto my car insurance even though she won't be driving my car? I don't want to pay $400 more for someone who will never drive my car...""

How to reduce my car insurance?
Hey people, I'm 18, living with parents, just got my licence in the UK about 4 months ago. So I went out today and bought a 1.0 engine size KIA PICANTO. Heres the annoying part...we've been looking for insurance within our budget (realistically 1500p/a), All companies we've looked at have been giving us quotes of about 3500 which I find astonishing for a 1.0!! We've tried confused, admiral, churchill and compare the market. We've tried putting my parents as the main drivers and its still too expensive. Looks like pass plus is also useless! However, its the latest edition. It's a 2011 KIA picanto....do you think maybe if I returned the car and purchased something from 2004-05, insurance would drop to a reasonable rate? I do have loads of friends who managed to get car insurance below 1000!! Many thanks""
Car insurance question regarding friends car?
(This is in Ohio). My friend let me drive her car when the roads were kind of bad due to weather. At an intersection, the light turned yellow, and I began to slide on the ice. I had control of the car, however, if I would have continued to slide straight I would have been hit side on by the incoming cars coming through the intersection. Instead, I had to turn the wheel and I hit a pole. No damages were done to the pole, any other cars, or people. Unfortunately when we took the car to an autobody shop, getting an estimate without the use of insurance, we got an average cost of $2,200. There's NOT that much damage on the left bumper to make the cost so expensive. Both me and my friend are insured, however, MY insurance company is saying it's her car, so her insurance has to pay for it. How will this work? If I ask her to pay using her insurance, I don't want her to pay any out of pocket. I would pay the deductible. Will this hurt her insurance, or my pocket? Any other good ideas? Thanks so much.""

Well, I was trying to chance insurance co. the other day when I found out that apparently this lady called my ins. company claiming to be my 'mom' admitting fault to the accident.

I need advice for my auto insurance claim! Please help!!?
I was in a car accident 4 days ago. My Mother was the passenger in my car (I was driving). I was on the off ramp getting off the freeway. All cars behind me were stopped. I was stopped waiting to make a right turn. An emergency vehicle was coming in my direction from my left. Therefore, I was waiting for the emergency vehicle to pass. The person behind me (large dodge ram truck I am in an '08 2 door Infiniti coupe) thought I went so he 'gunned it' to get in front of the emergency vehicle. Unfortunately, we had not gone so he pushed my vehicle out in front of the emergency vehicle. Luckily, I was able to turn my car out of the way. I did not hit anyone (no one was in front of me). My Mother and I were both put into a gurney and taken to a local hospital in an ambulance. We both had our seat belts on and suffered whiplash. We were released 5-6 hours later after x-rays, etc. We were both prescribed medicine. My Mother has had 3 brain tumors and has trouble with her speech etc. and any violent startling trauma can get her shaken up pretty badly and confused. I know she hit her head but, she is in pain but not nearly as much as I am. With my Mother's condition I don't know if this kind of thing can have negative effects later on. I know that my neck and back is pretty messed up. It hurts to stand for after 15 minutes or so. My car is pretty messed up and had to be towed. I plan on taking it back to the Infiniti shop to get all new parts. My car has all the upgrades in it so I want it to be taken care of. Am I allowed to take it to the Infiniti dealership or will Geico (the other persons insurance) not allow that, or does it not matter? The police gave the guy that hit us a citation. I have USAA and the other person has Geico. I just want to know exactly what to do in this situation. Since I'm out a car (I work for myself) I have been out (already) a decent amount of money for not being able to meet up with my clients. I spoke to my insurance today and they said that all my medical is covered since I had that already in my plan (without it raising my premium) and that I should get a settlement ON TOP of paying for damages to my car and getting me a rental, etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to get taken for a ride. I've heard the horror stories of dealing with insurance companies. Any advice on what I should make a point of saying to the other insurance company, etc. Thanks in advance....""

Car accident with no insurance?
I was stopped at a red light behind two cars. Both cars started to go and so did I the next thing I knew I had hit the car in front of me. The car in front of me hit the car in front of him. We all pulled over my car isnt to bad but I drive a suburban, the car in front of me was a smaller car so his looked a little worse. Nobody was hurt, and all cars were drivable, so we decided to not call the police we just all exchanged information. After we had finished and they left I immediately called my insurance lady to let her know what happened. I am not super clear on this next part, we have been going back and forth with our insurance since that call and will continue to fight it. When I called the insurance lady she said I wasnt covered. She said that they had received the last payment much later than it was due (not sure how because it was mailed the same time as always) but because of that our insurance had been cancelled. A couple of weeks ago they had chased our check, she said we were reinstated as of yesterday (the day of the accident) but because it was the same day they werent liable to pay the damages. We are going to keep fighting them because I dont think its fair. Even if they decide that they wont pay we can afford to just pay for the damages to the rear end of the car in front of us, because know matter what happened I am at fault for following to close. We cant afford to pay out of our pocket also for his front end and the rear end of the first car. Shouldnt those damages be covered by the car I hit because he was obviously following to close to the car in front of him? Im a little freaked out with all this, this is the first accident I have ever been in and we have always had insurance, so we thought. The insurance company did say they mailed us a cancellation notice but if they did we have never received one.""

My boyfriend and I were at a stop light the light turned green. We started to go (this area is under contraction so the lanes are all messed up). The car in front of stops then hits their braks so did my boyfriend but it was to late we hit her. The car started to coast back and hit us again. Then we tryed to pull of to the side. We realized that it was a chain reaction. Car #1 was hit by car #2, car #3 hit car # 2 and we hit car #3 in that order. We did not launch all the cars together. I did call the police and we got the stupidest officer there was that pretty much wrote the story up wrong. At the sence everyone was agreeing what happend. The woman we hit was a 77 year old lady. The first thing she when she got out of the car was she couldn't get her car in gear. (I don't know why it was out of gear but ok) Car #1 and Car #2 said they weren't going to do anything about their cars insurance company wise. Car #2 I'm sure will be going after the older woman in Car #3. The older woman said since it was likely the bumper would just buff out it was ok for my boyfriend to do that for her. But he said he would not touch the front of her car. (After talking to the insurace company they said my boyfriend fixxing it is a bad idea) My boyfriends car is the worse out of all of them it smashed in hood in, and broke the radatior brakets. (His car sat higher then hers and thats why it smashed it) The cop did try to write my boyfriend a ticket but the woman said it wasn't his fault the other cars hit before he hit Car #3. How will the insurance company handle this? What will happen to our car? We have Geico inusrance will no colistion insurance. It seems like his inusrance company is trying to say it was all his fault.""

Car Insurance Claim Help?
Car Insurance Claim Help? On the 4/7/2011 I was at a set of traffic lights that was (RED) of my way to the shops. As the lights went green I begin to move off slowly as I did another car came from the left of me and tried to turn right as he speed up he crashed into the drivers side of the car. He clearly jumped a red light (Clearly Seen on CCTV). I was in total shock at the time! After he crashed into my car he went to drive off by reversing, I jumped out of my car to stood in his was so he could not drive off the witness behind me called the police while I was stopping his from driving off he started to drive forwards trying to me me out the way. After the driver spoke to the police on the phone, he then gave me his Name, Phone number and Insurance information. The next day I called my insurance company they was vary helpful and I believe the clam would be settled in my favor as I had CCTV of the crash as I had a camera inside of my car and a witness that was behind my car at the time of the crash. After nearly 4Months I have now revived a letter stating that the claim has been closed on a Without Prejudice Basis. When I contacted Aviva to see what the 3rd party has not accepted full liability they said it was dealt with like this as the 3rd party who crashed into me was not responding to and calls or letters that have send him. Aviva did not asked to see the CCTV of the crash and did not take into account the witness statement. WHAT CAN I DOOO??""

Can California Civil Code 827 be used to enforce mandatory renters insurance?
Recently my landlord sent tenants a letter stating we have to buy renter's insurance, stating that California Civil Code 827 allows them to do this. Looking it up, I see 827 is about rent increased, not renter's insurance (and nothing about anything being mandatory). When I signed the lease with them, I was not required to pay for renter's insurance, but they claim that terms have changed and now I am obligated to pay this, and if I don't, may destroy my credit. All because of Civil Code 827. Can they actually do this? Or is this letter some kind of tactic to coerce me into signing this document and providing insurance? Thanks!""

Car Insurance Question NYS?
I am a 20 year old teenager and I want to lease a new car. The problem is that as you know, car insurance is very high and I don't have credit to be able to get a lease. So this is where my parents kick in. I will get the car and insurance under their names and use the car for my personal use because I will be paying the lease payments. This way, insurance costs will be low and I get a brand new car. Lets suppose I get pulled over or get involved into a crash, will I get into legal troubles by not having insurance on my own name? I mean, if i cause damage to someone's car and its my fault, I am willing to pay for the damage but I just don't want to get fined a gazillion dollars for not having my name on the insurance which is so stupid because its just a waste of money.

Why are there no good health insurance companies?
While thinking about the idea of an altruistic, fair public option for health insurance, I started trying to figure out why something like it doesn't already exist. (Or maybe it does?) The assumption seems to be that health insurance companies are causing problems through systematic greed, and the public option would help keep them honest. But, if this is the case, why isn't there an organization doing this already? Why don't the good, people, such as the ones that take less-pay than they could in other sectors to run major charitable organizations, start a good health insurance company that doesn't do any of the bad things that the other insurance companies do. If such an organization were to exist, it seems that everyone would switch to it, and even the most greedy of insurance companies would have to become like it in order to compete. There are obviously enough qualified and caring people out there to make such an organization happen without any government involvement. So why dont such organizations exist? I have a few ideas, but they dont explain the whole story. Maybe the fact that people dont usually shop around for health insurance because its chosen by their employers prevents new good insurance companies from gaining the market share required to make the bad ones change? Maybe health insurance companies are already as good as they can be, despite a few heartless employees, and the primary problems in health care come from somewhere else? Maybe protectionist legal policies prevent altruistic organizations from freely forming? Any thoughts?""

My TOP 5 Anime
Oh dear god. I was half way through this and my browser crashed. I don't know why I'm having to relearn that you should never EVER write from scratch in Tumblr's text editor but so be it. My mistake. Fuck. That really hurts... Anyway~
So yeah this will be the first in a series of Top 5 lists in the coming weeks including top consoles, games, music and possibly films and/or anime OPs. This is a really big deal and I just hope that I can pay the respect and due diligence that some of my favorite media of all time deserve. None of these are hidden gems, so I won't be alerting anyone to something they've never heard of necessarily, I'm simply taking pen in hand to pay homage to some of my all-time favorites.
1. Case Closed/Detective Conan
Until recently, during anytime in the past couple years, I would have told you NGE was far and away my favorite anime, hands down. But these, days I tend to especially value sheer watchability, and while this may sound a bit utilitarian, I think there's really something to be said for shows that feature self-contained episodes, that function individually outside of an extended arc, not beholden to the strained narrative structure that so many long-form TV shows suffer from. Indeed, this show perfects the 22-minute who-dun-it. And while they are just that: simple, contained who-dun-its, they are some of the most consistently enjoyable one's this Poirot fan has ever seen. After 130 episodes and tons of solid movies, this show just doesn't seem to get stale. Featuring my hands-down favorite English voice-acting cast this side of NGE and DBZ, the presentation is rounded out by way of pleasant and under-stated animation circa anime's visual peak in the mid-90s.
The scripts meanwhile are always sharply funny, even hilarious sometimes, and at other times suitably spooky and dark when needed. The Conan/Jimmy dialectic is weirdly engaging, and Richard's severe alcoholism gives the series an at times madcap but slightly dark undercurrent that matches the grizzly nature of much of the murders. Even side characters like Inspector Mcguire and the Phantom Thief Kidd fill out the cast and keep things interesting. Oh and did I mention the music? Because it's incredible. One of the best soundtracks in an anime outside of something by Hirasawa, Hisaishi or early Kajiura. And beyond the jazzy soundtracking and super-creepy sound-design, the third opening is hands-down the best one I've ever heard/seen. With a keen eye for details one truth prevails and its that this song fucking rocks my world.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPi9lvDe6LY
2. NGE
It almost seems like I shouldn't even try to sing the praises of this widely accepted classic. That it's praises have so long been writ in stone that there is no point in trying to encapsulate what it does so well. But I will try anyway, and when I apporach this show, beyond the depth of the characters themselves, I am struck by their excellent visual designs, which are whistful and graceful, and I'm struck by how they seem to be at odds with the apocalyptic nature of the show. Indeed, much of this show is very bleak. Shinji's familiar relations are bleak. His emotional state is bleak. Tokyo 3's hope for survival is bleak and the planet's fate seems the bleakest and yet: There are moments of ephemeral satisfaction and even happiness to be had when you least expect it, in the form of evenings at Misato's, where the cheap beer is always flowing, intrusive room-mates are abound, and hot, cheap meals are to be had, along with the company of a grumpy penguin.
Indeed, Shinji finds a version of domestic stability in the apartment of Misato, and these moments of fleeting bliss are the heart and center of the show. If NGE teaches you anything, it's that if you ever find yourself in a similar situation, to cherish it and hold on to it for as long as possible because pretty soon the Fifth Child will show up, steal your heart, steal away to Terminal Dogma and attempt to trigger the Third Impact. We are blessed to have in a medium such as anime characters as uncomfortably human as Shinji, Asuka and Misato are. On script they leap off the page, and in the show proper, they are vibrant. There's some archetypical aspect to this show that makes it feel like it is adapted from some ancient national mythos in the way it depicts such universal themes, and yet it is also clearly a product of the 1990s, distinctly modern and yet transcendent of its context. We react to Shinji's realistic and lovingly portrayed emotional insecurity and self-doubt in the same way that readers have reacted to Homer's incredibly vulnerable portrayals of Achille's angst and hubris or Priam's desperation and humility for the sake of a slain prince for centuries. This is Humanity recognizing itself in an inanimate object, in this case an anime, and coming away from the experience feeling as though there was something substantial gleaned. Something deep and true. If these characters's relevance also end up lasting nearly 3,000 years as well, I really couldn't be surprised. So yeah, this one is legendary. 'Nuff said. Oh and also something about the buzzing of cicadas. That’s super important.
3. Paranoia Agent
Oh Mr. Satoshi Kon. I feel for you a kinship that I imagine people may similarly feel for any fiercly individual creators like Isao, Hayao and Hideaki upon coming to know your animations. Indeed, I believe if animation can hope to do anything well specifically, it is in capturing human emotion, and the cerebral depth which actual humans possess in what are essentially simplistic, representative line-drawings, and Kon has that in spades. On a sheer visual level, Kon's work is the most immaculate I can imagine, with Paprika being comparable to Spirited Away on a technical level, and this show hints at the visual level he would be working on, while sporting an even stronger script in my mind. If NGE hinted at the psychological and emotional depths which could be found and expressed so effectively in anime, this show goes all the way in to the true deep-end. At the heart of it, is an actually somewhat straight-forward mystery, but things are obfuscated by unstable mental states and unreliable victims, all depicted wonderfully in the serene, nuanced style of Kons, which is wonderfully at odds with the subtly dark feeling of the show. As twisted as things get though, the show always come back to a very human place, and with everything punctuated by Hirasawa's fresh-as-hell OST, we have ourselves a serious keeper.
I just can't over-state how much this guy's visual style does it for me. The color-palette especially just really pops and makes my eyes go all googly in the same way they do when I think of shots of Shinji looking plaintive infront of a solid blue sky's backdrop. The script itself might be the true gem though, despite all the visual excellence. This show has lots to say about things including identity, perception, and media, and functions in some ways as a treatise on memes-- not in an internet-y way but more of in the sense that things and ideas can spread and develop and take on a life of their own despite the intentions of their creator. It's really fascinating stuff, with a fractal-esque structure all organized around a certain grinning Little Slugger. It's fascinating to see all these initially loose-seeming ends get tied up so nicely despite how off-the-rails it sometimes gets all with in its relative short run of episodes. It's one to watch over and over, as getting to the center of this labyrinth is a joyful excercise indeed.

Alright this is where I better brace myself to get written off by people who weren't turned off already by the inclusion of a detective shonen. The pessimistic take is that this is a long, boring show that takes a promising premise (to some) of being trapped in an MMO (about a decade before SAO) and features almost no action, existing mostly to accompany a string of largely repetitive Bandai-Namco action RPGS on the PS2 which themselves exist in order that some people might be suckered into buying all four volumes, procedurally-generated dungeons and all at approx. $200 US. The optimistic take though, is that this is one of the most atmospheric animes of all time thanks largely to an early OST from Yuki Kajiura before she got formulaic.
The show also sports excellent character designs which I think were very influential for other digitally drawn fantasy shows going forward. But where those shows become generic looking, this one has a pretty unique style, even if yes, scenes are largely consisting of conversations, plotting, waxing philosophical, and everything besides actual action. But the music! I don't know how Kajiura goes on to make so many lackluster OSTs later on (all that money) but here she shines brilliantly. The strings! The angelic vocal harmonies! I can't deny that this shows inclusion is largely due to the soundtrack. But beyond that, there are some interesting ideas to be found, including the central concept of a massively successful VR MMO game based on a fragmentary German epic poem in which people can become trapped in the game while in a coma-like state in real life, or the concept of sexual freedom of identity while on the net. For millenial kids who might be given to enjoying cyber-punk, I think this show is largely excellent, if yes a bit dry perhaps. But the overall atmosphere and feeling of the show is largely successful and I think it excellently captures the actual feeling of playing a good MMO. Critics like Digibro will trash this show save for the soundtrack, but I think the fact that this show fully encapsulates what it feels like to actually log into a game like Final Fantasy XI Online when your a kid makes an invaluable document of early 2000′s MMO culture. Limitless possibilities, mysteries abound, and `the absolving of the flesh and prior identity. A faint hint of danger and the unpaved crossroads. Those wide-open horizons are as fresh to me when I watch this show as they were when I was first getting my hands dirty exploring fantasy worlds online as a lad, and that's why there's no question about its placement on my list.
And seriously, listen to this song and tell me that this isn’t from a top 5 anime.

This one is a bit tricky. It's well-loved sure, and it's not too hard to tell why. It's off-the-walls sense of humour, playful animation and the fucking Pillows speak for themselves. But beyond that there's something deeper. And that deeper thing is simultaneously what makes me question if I should put it on this list at all while also being the thing that seals the deal. And that's the sheer attitude and feeling of this show. Which, yes is largely due to the Pillows. Again, I am no saint when it comes to ranking shows high based largely on the OST, but it's way more than that. It's a right-place, right-time kind of thing for sure, because if I hadn't seen this in its original US airing in the 6ths grade, it never would have hit me right. But at the time, it hit me harder than most shows. And even if it isn't something I can re-watch in the same was I can NGE or Paranoia Agent, its youthful energy and style are undeniable, and perfectly enshrined in its modest 6-episode run. Somethine about Naota is so damn relatable at that age. Because of this show I dreamt of growing up in a sleepy Japanese town, thinking about my professional baseball playing brother in the states, stressing about a lump on my head that might be a portal to an alien dimension, vespa-riding nymphomaniacs, and a dish-washing robot, among other things. In its short run time, this show packs a crazy amount of feels and light-hearted concepts. It takes slice-of-life and runs it through a mad-cap surrealist sci-fi cartoon filter. So while it's not something I can really sit through now-a-days, I will always be grateful for the way it made me feel so revved up and psyched when I was a kid. It gave me a new perspective in a weird way, at a time when I needed that, so thanks FLCL.
ok that’s that, shout-out to my 6-10 slots which I don’t feel like deciding the order of or writing about! Up next, consoles, games, OPs or albums?!
