So... How is Lemmy set for SEO?

[–] emstuff@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

SEO as a concept needs to die. dont get me wrong i want Lemmy to show up in google results but doing that by spamming keywords and unrelated “related” posits is not the move

[–] BruceDoh@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Then what is the correct move? How do I locate content related to keywords?

wish i knew, maybe something with AI?

the reality is that current-day SEO isn't even Optimization, it's Lying. try googling a recipe or an alternative to a popular software and see how the first four pages are all ad-ridden, useless spam-bot articles designed to retain users rather than give them the information they are looking for

recipe

based.cooking

alternatives

alternativeto.net

exactly my point--neither of these (excellent) sites will show up in your standard google search because they have the integrity not to abuse SEO
