🎙️ Hopped on Edward Sturm's podcast and gave away my whole link building playbook
1. Stop buying links by DR
I'll pay up to $2,000 for a link from a DR 10 site if that page ranks top 10 for a keyword where people buy ("best X tool")
It sends real clicks, and when ChatGPT does a ecommending a tool, that's the page it reads
2. Ask for a section, not an anchor
An H3 with your tool name + a screenshot + 2 lines on what it does, inside the "best tools" part of a ranking article, beats any contextual anchor link
Even unlinked, it's a signal
3. Find links nobody else is pitching
Everyone copies their competitors' top pages
Instead: Ahrefs → competitor → Backlinks → "Best links" → sort by Page Traffic
Those pages send your competitor real traffic. Pitch them, then repeat on the sites linking to *them*
4. Keep outreach emails stupidly short
"Saw this page, you didn't mention us, how much to add us?"
4-paragraph pitches get ignored. AI-written templates were bad until Opus, so I used real human emails as templates
5. Pay UGC creators a retainer
Just 5 creators, $500/mo each, 30 videos/mo, bonuses at 20k/50k/100k views
No phones, no SIMs, no warming 20 accounts yourself
Hiring test: send only your URL and ask for 1 test video. If they find the wow moment on their own, hire them
Bonus from Edward: pay small creators whose old videos still rank in Google to open their video and description with your keyword

I used @ahrefs to reverse-engineer how @sanity_io gets its organic traffic today.
42% of their entire search traffic comes from 114 glossary pages (React.js, Next.js, Vue.js) with 0 backlinks.
And when you check their 4,800 backlinks, 4,130 of them are just customer CDN asset How to steal any devtool competitor's real SEO playbook in 5 minutes:
1. Open Ahrefs Site Explorer -> Top Pages -> toggle "SERP titles" on -> Export CSV
2. Drop the CSV into Claude Code
3. Prompt: "Cross-match their top pages against our sitemap and give me a content calendar"

😅 @marclou inspired me by churning from Beehiiv to vibe-code his own newsletter tool
so when DataFast hit me with an upgrade popup yesterday, I pulled a Marc on Marc 😭
moved all 23 sites to my own Hetzner server in one morning:
🧰 backfilled 3.6M visitors + 7,600 Stripe/Polar s
🚀 12x–225x faster queries (benchmarked from 1,152ms → 92ms)
📊 ripped out Recharts for native SVG (bundle 536kB → 96kB)
🔌 custom Stripe, Polar, GSC & ClickHouse connectors
🤖 direct MCP access for my coding agents
🇪🇺 100% first-party on EU Hetzner (no 3rd-party sub-processors, no GDPR headaches, no adblockers)
💸 $0/mo, unlimited events
honestly it's just more responsible to self-host your analytics anyway, you own the raw visitor + payment data instead of leaking it to a 3rd party and can ensure you fix all the latest security dependency issues and your Stripe keys don't leak and you can make improvements for your specific stack
he was right: once you have a server and an agent, you don't click "upgrade plan" anymore
SaaS-pocalypse

I forgot to wish DataFast a happy birthday 🥳
The initial growth was really slow (8 months to $3K MRR), but I'm happy I pushed through because it taught me so much!
After this year's growth, it has plateaued at ~30K MRR and is tracking ~220M page views per month.
It's a great a SaaS is hard and takes time.

100% I did the same for @LinkDR_
My admin MCP now has 87 tools so Claude runs the whole link building process for me (finding sites, pitching editors, checking if links are live, emailing customers, writing in Slack)
I barely open my own admin dashboard anymore I think :D

And it takes just 1 prompt to copy it to LinkedIn 🫢
This tweet by @robj3d3 is now a few months old so today with Gemini I tried to rebuild and ended up cutting the codebase from 91,483 lines down to 8,523 lines :D
Turns out the original extension was 10.7 MB with 40+ npm packages and 17 jsonpath passes on every timeline scroll, a single pass made it 28x faster and 27x smaller
It also now runs 100% locally in your browser with zero external server calls and lets you 1-click copy any account's outlier tweets into Claude or Cursor
Just DM me if you want the zip to try it!

@robj3d3 Opus for sureeee!!
you guys should just make the SuperX chrome extension work in Claude/ChatGPT/etc
Allow selecting tweets for inspiration, inject 100s of tweets into the prompt for examples, quick-prompt buttons
Like Grammarly or the Keywords Everywhere extension

@Hey_builds SuperX is a product that is very difficult to copy, so I am not worried
It is a headache and a half to build it myself
If someone wants to clone it, go for it. But they can't clone the infra that we run on or the brand

another banger seo roast
@illyism audit said 81% of our search traffic lands on one free Instagram handle checker that almost nobody signs up from 😭 Free tools man, they annoy me
What we've shipped from his advice:
- Swapped the trial box for free downloads on each guide (guess need to a a guide, oops)
- 18 per-platform MCP pages and a /connectors hub
- A public MCP repo, submitted to directories
- An Instagram grid planner and a TikTok username checker
- A Google Business guide rewritten with real screenshots
Daily visits went from about 480 to about 800 over the last 3 days (+68%), peaking at 905 on Oct 14.
Is it from Ilias feedback? I reckon so, I've done little to no other work on the site, no ads etc.
We'll see. So far some 'low hanging fruit' that I wish I thought of tbh. But can't think of it all can you.

How Outrank went from 0 to 9.5K organic clicks/mo in under a year 📈
I exported their 343 backlinks in @Ahrefs to see how they grew so fast:
1️⃣ Every blog post published by a user stamps "Article created using Outrank" (136 dofollow links)
2️⃣ Built-in backlink exchange s' blogs (107 contextual links)
3️⃣ Free mini-tools (/seotools/google-crawler-simulator ranks #1 with 2 links)
4️⃣ Broad top-of-funnel listicles (5,000+ clicks/mo)
Product-led SEO where every new customer builds your DR 🤯

looks like the PostShiba.com 2027 roadmap is already locked in:
looks like the PostShiba.com 2027 roadmap is already locked in:
Over the next little while you're going to see a lot of posts like the below (it's what @IanLandsman and I have been fighting about for over a month) and it's best that you DO NOT adopt this mindset.
It's just not productive.
We are so, so, so early in the innovation adoption better off asking "in a year from now, when someone can prompt my business in seconds instead of a day, how can I position myself where I am resilient to that change?" and act accordingly.
There's still time to pivot just don't stay static.

“Why are indie hackers vibe-coding their own tools to save $50 a month??”
Meanwhile, his pricing page for a feedback board & changelog:
- Pay $29/mo and you still have "Powered by UserJot" plastered on your app
- Want to remove his watermark + get more than 1 integration + SSO? $59/ve to wire up JWT auth so your own logged-in users can click an upvote button
Or I prompt Claude once, it adds a /feedback and /changelog table to my existing auth + DB in 10 minutes
It's the same amount of work as integrating Userjot
But now I am then responsible for my own apps and hosting (no risk of downtime from others), the app is lighter, no 3rd party <script> tags, no issues with privacy / cookie banners / GDPR
And if I need a new feature, it's just another prompt away

I've been seeing a ton of posts from indie hackers vibe coding their own alternatives to all kinds of products lately, to save I don't know, 50 bucks a month. And it surprises me because the math isn't mathing for me.
AI made writing code a lot faster, sure. But it's still bad at product decisions, architecture decisions, and it definitely can't run the whole thing on its own: Research, plan, build, iterate, deploy, scale, keep it running, fix it when it breaks at 2am.
So you're building a weekend version of something that has an entire team behind it. People with years of experience who get paid to make the best version of that thing. You're not getting anywhere close to that for the little money you were paying.
And the time you spent on this could've gone into your own product which is priorities problem as a builder, especially if your competitors are moving even faster because of AI.
On top of that, if AI is already good enough to do all of this, why does anyone need your product? Why not give up and move on?

they've quietly processed 21M+ orders via API and just shipped a free MCP so Claude / Cursor can search & buy across Amazon, Walmart, Etsy and every Shopify store without an Amazon agent:

Amazon banning agents is the first opportunity I've seen since Amazon was founded for a startup to create an Amazon competitor. People will want agents to buy stuff for them. It will be one of the main use cases. And they won't want to use some Amazon-supplied agent to do it.

ecom bro looking at $70,000+ in software payouts and thinking there's $45k of Chinese factory COGS and $28k of Meta ads behind it 😭
who's gonna tell him?
who's gonna tell him?
None of this is profit and I’ve seen many many people go broke because they can’t focus on one thing and one thing only.
Build businesses that accompany your main business sure, but spreading attention thin in early growth phases to me is silly

🇰🇷 Korea surprised me so much that I cancelled my flight back to Europe
After 2 weeks in Seoul and a few days in Busan, I decided to stay in Asia for another 6 months
Here's what blew me away:
Growing up in Belgium, kitchens would shut around 10 PM (usually around the time I'd ffice and go out)
If you were hungry after midnight, your options were basically fries from a frituur, a fast-food burger, or just getting beers, it's also nearly the only way to socialize or meet with friends
In Korea, you can walk into a packed restaurant at 1:30 AM on a Tuesday, eat like a king, then go play video games, hit baseballs at 3 AM, or visit a 24/7 jjimjilbang
That's a Korean bathhouse where you strip completely naked with total strangers for hot saunas and cold plunges, then, if you want, put on matching pyjamas to sleep or relax on heated floors
So far, everything here seems designed to remove friction from everyday life
For example in our apartment in Seoul, there was literally an elevator call button inside the flat so by the time you walked out the front door, the elevator was already waiting
At many restaurants, you sit down, order from a tablet mounted to the table, and tap your card right there and your food arrives minutes later
At Korean BBQ restaurants, staff usually cook and cut the meat for you right at the table
I even had a robot make my coffee the other day
A few weeks earlier I was in Basque Country, where ordering sometimes meant fighting your way to the bar and outshouting everyone for a pintxo sitting on 2-day-old bread 😂
Here, you finish eating, pay, and leave, without waiting 20 minutes to flag down a waiter or leaving a tip
And the food is just incredible and healthy
You order one dish and suddenly 6-10 banchan appear across the table: kimchi, vegetables, seaweed, sauces, little side dishes, usually with free refills
You can eat genuinely great, fresh food for a fraction of what a mediocre lunch costs in Zurich, London, Paris or New York
But what surprised me even more is the culture
I spent August in Warsaw, where I got pretty familiar with the famous "Polish smile" (stoic, unsmiling faces and not exactly an abundance of warmth in shops and restaurants 😂)
So the hospitality in Korea caught me completely off guard
People are incredibly polite, patient, and helpful, even when there's a massive language barrier and there's a level of trust
You can leave your MacBook, phone and wallet on a coffee shop table while going to the bathroom and nobody touches them
I'm currently in Busan for the Busan International Film Festival, watching about 2 movies a day
In comparison, last month I was at the San Sebastián Film Festival, where during some screenings you'd hear 10-20 people coughing, whispering or moving around
Here, I sat in an IMAX theater with around 500 people
And for 2 hours, it was in complete silence, even a bit eerie, so when the movie ended, everyone quietly left after the credits
Nobody actually said a word, down the elevator and the street, and ofc not a single piece of trash left behind
And somehow, despite everything being ridiculously clean, there are almost NO public trash cans anywhere
You can walk around for 30 minutes holding an empty coffee cup looking for somewhere to throw it away 😂
I still haven't figured out how that works, I guess you are supposed to take it home with you
But all these little things that add up, after traveling through so many countries this year, EU, USA, Latin America, the level of respect and consideration for the people around you really stands out
Also some of the fastest internet I've used anywhere, great public transport and cheap Uber, everything open late, and Korea now even has a digital nomad visa
Pretty good country!

POV: you forgot to add the "tests are banned" in a new repo
@ryanvogel very annoying it started doing this
I already banned it
like 50% of code is tests, but then it gets also "stuck" in thinking this is the right way and harder to refactor, it just tests the exact same broken flows instead of the "broad picture"

- The inverted-funnel image Atlassian ranks with, and Sqrl does not have
- How a DR 46 site beats the giants for ABM tools with real screenshots
- The free template HubSpot uses to turn a definition post into leads

Full roast + written action plan 👉 seoroast.com/sqrl

Cursor kept draining my MacBook
Biome stuck at 900% CPU, orphaned node processes, a next-server eating 9 GB+
So I built a watchdog
It checks every minute, three strikes and the process is gone - 208 kills in 8 weeks, all battery issues fixed
The prompt, if you want your own dog for runaway dev processes.
- Bash + launchd only, no dependencies
- Check every minute, only while I'm using the Mac
- Watch node, next-server, bun, biome, tsc, esbuild
- Stricter CPU and memory limits on battery than on AC
- 3 strikes in a row before acting
- Only kill my own processes inside ~/[my work dir]
- Never kill a dev server attached to a terminal
- Kill orphaned leftovers older than 4 hours
- SIGTERM first, SIGKILL after 5 seconds
- Stop after 3 kills per hour and notify me instead
- Start in notify-only mode
- Log every decision, never log command lines or env vars"

TIL you can build your own Control Center toggles on macOS
I made one that keeps my Mac awake with the lid closed
Now my coding agents keep running when I leave the laptop at home or bring it with me in my backpack on a hotspot
Apple will probably ship this eventually

@LinkDR_ pretty good personal spend for the life
if you rent airbnbs / cars with 2-5 people and split with the homies life is pretty cheap!
"misc business" could be considered here too, but I sold a few backlinks to my friends so it all counts as a work trip/meeting now? 😉
