Editors Note: Early on problems developed on one of the engines of aircraft #964. In addition one of the wing walkers on a tow out of the hangar did not notice the wing tip contact the hangar door until it was too late. Oops...I think that troop is still trying to see sunshine. Damage required parts being flown in from Edwards AFB. Even so, #964 did not see much of the action in the Yom Kippur War. My assigned Crew Chief duties at Griffiss AFB was with #979. She flew incredibly perfect, in my book, for these missions knowing that there was no backup aircraft. In all operations, both at Griffiss and Seymour Johnson, #979 flew two-thirds of the ten or eleven hour sorties. She was a Blackbird that was second to none. I was full engine run qualified and before leaving Griffiss there were attempts to run #964 but a full afterburner run was required. As there were no tie-down facilities at Griffiss, a High Speed taxi was ordered. I requested and received the pilot's approval to ride in the back seat on a full afterburner test (successful) on the runway. We never lifted off, but the ride was one hell of a treat for a country boy.

Leland Haynes, Webmaster, SR-71 Blackbirds

Special thanks to A1C Craig Meridith for his flawless contributions as Assistant Crew Chief on this operation.

Editor's Note: There is published in some SR-71 books and articles the following statement: "The Air Force Systems command deployed #955 to Griffiss AFB, New York under the code name "Black Knight". Using the cover story of evaluation of a new Electronic Counter Measures (ECM) suite of sensors Yom Kippur War missions were flown. This is not true. #955 flew into Griffiss in 1975 for the above mentioned evaluations. Mark McKenzie shot these photos of 955 at Griffiss in 1975.

Art Summary 2024

Full post is available on my website (Art Summary 2024)

2024...

This year was rough for me, and for many others as well from the looks of things. I didn't have as many larger works this year, but I've managed to scrounge together what I did make for a filled-out summary.

January - it's snowing again

A piece about feelings of uncertainty and caution entering 2024. It's bleak out there, but it snowed a few times at least. It was nice to look at, I guess that's something.

-

Febuary - POV: Your partner is a New Englander

A screenshot redraw challenge from Twitter. I like to imagine Alia took that photo on a Boston trip with Io because the Red line was running late.

-

March - LPS EMPRESS

2024 was the year I got more into IIDX, and back into LPS collecting. As a result, these otherwise completely different interests ended overlaping a lot more than I thought lol.

This one's a spoof on the IIDX empress CS boxart, combined with two long-term dreamie LPS I got around that time.

-

April - A quiet afternoon Birthday

Prisma & her AU Monster Hunter Prisma were major comfort characters a few years back. While both versions taken a backseat recently, I wanted to make some form of nice picture for her birthday.

-

May - Io ver. Aquatic

A last-minute mermay picture featuring Io! I based their design on a black-tipped reef shark.

-

June - My Pet Shop.pdf

A zine based on my revived interest for LPS, highlighting a few 'named' pets in my collection. Some of them are older ones with sentimental value, and some were (relatively) recent additions to my collection.

-

July - The Uno Incident

Guys I don't think he's winning this round.

Uno brings up some funny memories from college for me. Notably one instance where I got drunk and got skipped at least 3 times during gameplay (and missing several times I could've played a card...). It became a running joke for the rest of that year.

-

August

Wasn't much from this month (or at least much that wasn't part of unfinished projects). I think this might've been the only one I posted. A warmup dump for a project I was working on at the time involving Shem.

-

September - m_l_nch_ly

A piece about feelings of fear, stagnation, and hopelessness as a queer individual. Feelings that loomed over me 2023, 2024, and especially now entering 2025.

-

October - Zinnia MLP Custom

With my revived interest in LPS came a revived interest in custom toys (though I'll likely keep this as a minor side-thing). This was an old MLP G4.5 base I prepped years ago, and made into a figure based off my LPS mascot.

I based it on how I draw her, though I think next time I do a project with sculpting I should think about how to make it more efficient (It took about 3 months to make between motivational dips...)

-

November - Still More to Do...

My contribution for Window to Worlds 2024! This year I gave the spotlight to Jpeg and Risa. In which Jpeg realises they haven't packed anything that isn't gaming related since they moved in, and Risa not being much help either.

-

December - Webmaster Io - v2

A redraw of an older picture of Io with their updated design to celebrate my site's recent layout update.

I would argue the latter is my biggest project and proudest achievement of 2024, so I like to see this illustration as a stand-in for that as well.

Hi! Gonna start off and say that I love the work you're doing with the Welcome Home neocities website! It's perfectly stylized for the project/puppet show and I can see the work you're putting into it.

I'd love to learn how to make my own neocities website (for fun? For a personal project??), so I was wondering if you could provide some tips and/or pointers for a first-timer.

Thank you!

HAHA well first of all i'm flattered that someone would think i'm skilled enough to be giving pointers in the first place. i still consider myself a novice when it comes to web design (for example, if you're wondering why every page on welcome to welcome home has its own CSS, it's because CSS is Way harder for me to wrap my head around than HTML) so i can't give any Super advanced tips, but i can at least write about what's helped me so far:

GUIDES. neocities has its own tutorial and list of HTML/CSS resources, but user-made guides are your best friend when it comes to figuring out where to go from there. a.n. lucas and pauli kohberger both have really good guides for beginners, but for the more advanced stuff, i found myself referencing the resources on solaria's webspace and sadgrl.online the most. w3schools is also very helpful when it comes to answering more specific questions like "how do i use two different fonts on the same page?" (and probably more.) if all else fails, then usually just googling "how to (x) in HTML" or "how to (x) in CSS" will yield at least one useful result. for making your website more accessible, there's the accessible net directory and this masterpost by foxpunk on tumblr.

it sounds obvious, but it helps to have a solid idea of what kind of site you want to build before you actually dive in, and then snoop around on neocities to get an idea of how other users approach the same topic. for example, i got the idea to start a welcome home wiki on neocities after being reminded of the 8:11 wiki on the same site, and then i spent a couple days just looking up stuff like "wiki" or "fansite" on neocities and then clicking on any page that caught my attention to study it.

layouts! there's no shame in using a premade one, and you can even learn more about HTML/CSS in real time just by messing around with the base code before implementing any intentional changes. sadgrl.online's layout builder is a VERY popular choice, since you can already do a lot with the basic options it offers and it's easy to further customize once you have it set up on your page; it's what i used to make welcome to welcome home. sadgrl.online's webmaster links also feature a bunch of other options under the "layouts" tag, and if none of those work for you, then you can even find something just by looking up template/templates/layout/layouts/HTML/CSS on neocities itself.

side note: if you're reading this and you want to make a wiki then you can also use this wikitable code. it came out after i had already established the Look of welcome to welcome home, so i probably won't implement it any time soon, but i TOTALLY WOULD HAVE if it was around when i first set the site up.

you can scale images up or down using percentage, with 100% being the image's default size. i don't know how helpful or acceptable that is, but i use it a lot.

don't feel pressured to get everything done at once, even if you expect people to be visiting your site frequently. usually if you just slap on an "under construction" gif or even just write "hey this site is still under construction" then people will understand. i don't think i've ever seen anyone get super huffy about slow updates on neocities, anyway.

EDIT: OH. GRAPHICS. i mention all of these on welcome to welcome home's front page but i Also wanted to note them here: betty's graphics and websets by lynn both have HUGE collections of background tiles and other graphics that work especially well if you're going for that old web charm. i also like to use this mirror of patterncooler for backgrounds bc of the customization options. you can also make your own background tile and then use a seamless tile maker like this if all else fails.

EDIT 2: ALSO. obviously. do not be like me and use discord or any other chat client as a filehost, no matter how promising it looks, because one day you WILL get a very nasty surprise when the request signature on those urls expire and the images are no longer accessible on other sites. there are a myriad of other filehosts out there, but personally i recommend file garden (and also donating to file garden if you can, even if only for a couple months. i know i said that just yesterday, but if it gets more folks to subscribe then i'm gonna keep saying it.)

Navigating The New Terrain: Google's SEO Starter Guide Update 2024

The Google SEO Starter Guide is a fundamental resource for anyone looking to understand and implement Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for their website. With the digital landscape continually evolving, staying updated with the latest SEO practices is crucial for maintaining visibility and relevance in search engine results. Recently, Google announced a major update to its SEO Starter Guide, which is set to bring significant changes to how SEO is approached in 2024 and beyond.

The Evolution of Google’s SEO Starter Guide

The original version of Google’s SEO Starter Guide was a comprehensive manual that provided website owners and webmasters with essential information on optimizing their sites for better search engine rankings. This guide covered a range of topics, from site structure and content creation to mobile optimization and analytics.

Key Features of the Original Guide

Site Structure and Navigation: Emphasized the importance of a well-organized website for both user experience and search engine crawling.

Content Quality: Stressed the need for original, valuable content tailored to the target audience.

Mobile Optimization: Addressed the growing importance of mobile-friendly websites.

Use of Keywords: Offered advice on using keywords effectively within the content.

Analytics and Monitoring: Guided on using tools like Google Analytics to track performance and user engagement.

Anticipated Changes in the 2024 Update

According to recent announcements, the updated Google SEO Starter Guide is set to introduce new best practices and remove outdated advice, reflecting the evolving nature of search engines and user behavior. Here are some expected changes:

Enhanced Focus on User Experience (UX): As search algorithms become more sophisticated, UX is likely to play a more central role in SEO. The update might provide in-depth insights on creating user-centric designs and content.

Increased Emphasis on Mobile-First Indexing: With mobile searches dominating, the updated guide will probably place more stress on mobile-first indexing, ensuring sites are optimized for mobile users first.

Greater Importance on Page Speed and Performance: Site speed and performance have become crucial ranking factors. The new guide may offer advanced tips on improving site speed and overall performance.

Content Relevance and Quality: Given the advancements in natural language processing, the guide is expected to delve deeper into creating content that’s not just keyword-rich but also contextually relevant and of high quality.

Voice Search Optimization: With the rise of voice-assisted devices, the updated guide might include strategies for optimizing content for voice search.

Data Privacy and Security: In light of increasing concerns over data privacy and security, the guide may incorporate best practices for maintaining site security and user privacy.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: The guide might touch upon the growing influence of AI and machine learning in SEO and how to adapt strategies accordingly.

Implications for Website Owners and SEO Professionals

The updated Google SEO Starter Guide will be more than just a manual; it will be a comprehensive roadmap to navigating the complexities of modern SEO. Website owners and SEO professionals must adapt strategies to align with these changes. Embracing a more holistic approach to SEO, focusing on user experience, and staying informed about the latest trends and technologies will be imperative for success in the ever-changing digital landscape.

Unlocking the Potential of Pingbacks: why is it so powerful for your blog.

As I was going through different blogs.  I came across an article from Hugh's Views & News, his article title is Quote The Power Of Pingbacks: How To Create One Unquote.

The author Hugh, explains the intricacies of linkbacks, shedding light on their profound impact on website visibility and search engine optimization (SEO). Hugh skillfully navigates through the dynamics of link-building strategies, elucidating how quality linkbacks can significantly enhance a website's authority and relevance in search engine rankings. Moreover, the article explores the evolving landscape of online networking and its influence on the efficacy of linkbacks in driving organic traffic and fostering online engagement. With its insightful analysis and practical tips, "The Power Of Pingbacks: How to Create One" serves as an invaluable resource for digital marketers, webmasters, and anyone seeking to harness the potential of link building to optimize their online presence. I have been blogging for a while and never really grasped how important linkback is, until I read Hugh's, I knew that it existed and has some importance but not that high. When I researched the link back on Google I almost fell off my chair,

Yes, do you see it too, one little research tells you how many people, articles, blog posts, and documents speak about a link back? SO NOW, I would like to thank you / for visiting my website, among that mega huge haystack of links you have chosen my link, I am honored and very happy that you are here, and I hope the following will be worth your time, and great value to you. Now, to the core of the subject, let's start with:

The power of Courtesy.

Hugh mentions in his article that it is important to ask first before linking back, here is what I understand from my little research. By seeking permission to get consent first, it acknowledges the autonomy and ownership of the linked content, fostering a collaborative and ethical online environment. It reflects an understanding of the effort and creativity invested by the content creator or website owner. Additionally, asking for permission allows for open communication and collaboration, potentially leading to a mutually beneficial relationship between the linking and linked parties. This approach not only promotes a sense of professionalism but also mitigates the risk of legal issues related to copyright infringement. Ultimately, the practice of seeking permission before linking back underscores the importance of ethical conduct in the interconnected realm of the internet, building trust and fostering positive relationships within the digital community. So of course, before writing this article I did contact Hugh for his approval.

What is a linkback?

A linkback, also known as an incoming link, inbound link, or backlink, is a hyperlink on one website that points to another website. In simpler terms, it's a link from one web page to another. When a webpage links to another webpage, it is essentially creating a link back to that page.

Linkbacks are crucial in the context of search engine optimization (SEO) and website authority. Search engines use the number and quality of linkbacks to a webpage as one of the factors to determine the relevance and authority of that page. If a webpage has many high-quality linkbacks from reputable sites, search engines may consider it more trustworthy and relevant, potentially improving its search engine ranking. There are two main types of linkbacks: Internal Linkbacks: These are links that point to another page within the same website. Internal linkbacks are essential for navigation within the site and help search engines understand the structure and hierarchy of the website's content. Example: Visit Page 2 External Linkbacks: These are links that originate from one website and point to a page on a different website. External linkbacks play a significant role in SEO because search engines see them as a vote of confidence or endorsement for the linked page. Example: Visit Example Website In summary, linkbacks are an integral part of web navigation and play a crucial role in SEO by influencing the visibility and ranking of a webpage in search engine results.

How to create a linkback

To create a link back to another website, you can use HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) if you're working on a web page. Here's a basic example:

If you are using WordPress, simply Highlight the portion of the text that you want to insert a link, it will open a pop window, find the little round thing, click on it, and follow the instructions to insert your link. If you are coding your text, via a platform, then the coding is as follows: Visit Example Website Let's break down the code: : This is the HTML anchor tag, used to create hyperlinks. href="https://www.example.com": This attribute specifies the URL of the linked resource. Replace "https://www.example.com" with the actual URL of the website you want to link to. target="_blank": This attribute opens the linked document in a new browser window or tab. If you don't want to open a new window, you can omit this attribute. You can insert this code wherever you want the link to appear on your webpage. Remember to replace "https://www.example.com" with the actual URL of the website you want to link to.

Where or how to use a linkback

A linkback is typically used within the body of a paragraph where you want to direct readers to additional information, sources, or related content on another website. Here's an example of how you might incorporate a linkback: Quote "(Eighty-nine years ago, the very first canned beer made its debut for sale.) If you’ve ever enjoyed beer from a can, credit goes to the Gottfried Krueger Brewery. Today marks the 89th anniversary of their pioneering decision to introduce the delectable beverage in a can for consumers to savor. " Unquote In this example, the linkback located within the brackets is used to reference another article within this website. Including linkbacks enhances the credibility of your content and allows readers to explore relevant information effortlessly. A second method is by citing a source: Title : The Power Of Pingbacks: How To Create One Source : Hugh's Views & News In this scenario, it is important to link to the appropriate article, in this case, the source states the name of the website, but to keep the reader within the subject, it is important to link back to the specific article that you are referring to, in this example the correct link is: https://hughsviewsandnews.com/category/blogging/blogging-tips/  . As per Hugh's suggestion and what I have read on the net, it is recommended that activate the open a new tab or page when you are linking back to another article. Although you are offering extra information about the subject you are covering, you still want the visitor to stay on your website, or at least get back to it. One More detail, linkbacks, play a pivotal role in the realm of search engine optimization (SEO), and their importance is underscored by Google's algorithms. Essentially, when reputable websites link back to your content, it serves as a vote of confidence in the quality and relevance of your information. Google perceives these linkbacks as a measure of the credibility and authority of your website, contributing significantly to its ranking in search results. Linkbacks act as virtual endorsements, signaling to search engines that your content is valuable and worthy of attention. Google's algorithms consider the quantity and, more importantly, the quality of these links. Links from authoritative and trustworthy websites carry more weight in boosting your site's SEO. Additionally, linkbacks contribute to the overall visibility of your content, enhancing the likelihood of your pages appearing higher in search engine results pages (SERPs). Moreover, linkbacks foster a sense of interconnectedness within the vast landscape of the internet. They create a web of relevance, allowing search engines to better understand the relationships between different pieces of content. As Google values user experience, linkbacks help ensure that users can easily navigate between related and informative resources. In summary, Google views linkbacks as a key metric in determining the credibility, authority, and relevance of a website. Strategically acquiring high-quality linkbacks is a fundamental aspect of SEO, influencing a site's position in search rankings and contributing to its overall online presence.

Of course, the coding is very similar, you just have to add a little portion of code to it as shown below. Click here

In conclusion,

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Hugh for crafting an insightful and thought-provoking piece that has left a lasting impression on me. Your expertise, clarity of expression, and ability to engage the audience have made a significant impact. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, passion, and unique perspective. Your work has not only enriched my understanding but has also inspired further exploration into the subject matter. I appreciate the dedication and effort you've invested in creating a piece that resonates with readers. It's truly been a rewarding experience, and I eagerly anticipate more of your contributions in the future. Thank you for the valuable insights and the intellectual journey your writing has provided.

[aroceu]

yes!!

i've been putting a lot of free time lately just finding more stuff (and also because it's fun for me) so here's another list of some tools.

here are some guides! they do go through a lot so i recommend reading at your own pace, and you can even start projects on the side based on what you know rather than trying to read and absorb them all at once. i usually like using guides as references more than a how-to manual before starting anything, but for the very basics it's usually a good place to start.

Interneting Is Hard (but it doesn't have to be), a guide on the raw basics of what a website is and how to make one, written casually and friendly for beginners

Marksheet, a thorough and introductory website on how to make a website, from starting with the basic stuff to introducing more complex techniques

The Quick ‘n’ Dirty Guide to Making a Website, a guide for how and why you should make a website, geared primarily towards artists/creatives

sadgrl online's webmastery resources, particularly: the what you see is what you get layout maker (no coding required), and html & css snippets, which i have heard great things about

petrapixel's layout generator, which also allows you to customize and generate your own layout with no coding required

web design in 4 minutes by jeremy thomas, an introductory tutorial on thinking about webdesign/website structure

tutorials at htmldog, which was my primary place in learning how to make a website in like... 2008. and yet they're still so relevant today

make your own website, a beginner's guide to making one's own website. it was written for the writer's 12 year old child if that may be less intimidating than the rest of these guides

other sitely resources!

easily download your ao3 fics for archival purposes and if you want to reupload them

owls' guide to webshrines, if you're ever interested in or have considered making in the shrine in the form of a website for something you really like and are a fan of! from a fannish perspective this has always been common among fan-inclined indie website makers - people just want to make websites dedicated to things they love, because hey, that's what the rest of us are doing in fandom anyway. this guide goes into detail how, why, and some suggestions for how to make a fan shrine!

how to make your first randomizer at lions-garb.net. you can make a randomizer through just inputting the stuff, sure, but this is a small guide on how to do it on the backend so you can also make your own randomizers while also making them look pretty on the internet.

resources list for the personal web, a very extensive list of a variety of webweaving resources, from tutorials to code snippets to tips to ideas! it may seem very daunting so i recommend just skimming it and seeing what catches your eye first, there's no chronological way to learn things once you have the very basics down

kalechips's layout thrift store, which has a bunch of free codes already created as basic web templates that anyone can feel free to take and adjust and edit and learn from to their liking! there's a lot of different already preset layouts so you don't have to worry about that part, and learn and modify them (if you want) instead

petrapixel's coding self-study checklist, a thorough list of some webdev coding necessities that hobbyists may have i missed (i know have!)

and if you get to the point where you want your website to feel like part of a community as much as you are, you can join a web ring!

the fic ring for self-hosted fanfic sites

the fandom webring, a webring for any webmasters in fandom

here's a consistently updated list of current indie web-rings!

In the wake of the TikTok ban and revival as a mouthpiece for fascist propaganda, as well as the downfall of Twitter and Facebook/Facebook-owned platforms to the same evils, I think now is a better time than ever to say LEARN HTML!!! FREE YOURSELVES FROM THE SHACKLES OF MAJOR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS AND EMBRACE THE INDIE WEB!!!

You can host a website on Neocities for free as long as it's under 1GB (which is a LOT more than it sounds like let me tell you) but if that's not enough you can get 50GB of space (and a variety of other perks) for only $5 a month.

And if you can't/don't want to pay for the extra space, sites like File Garden and Catbox let you host files for free that you can easily link into NeoCities pages (I do this to host videos on mine!) (It also lets you share files NeoCities wouldn't let you upload for free anyways, this is how I upload the .zip files for my 3DS themes on my site.)

Don't know how to write HTML/CSS? No problem. W3schools is an invaluable resource with free lessons on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and a whole slew of other programming languages, both for web development and otherwise.

Want a more traditional social media experience? SpaceHey is a platform that mimics the experience of 2000s MySpace

Struggling to find independent web pages that cater to your interests via major search engines? I've got you covered. Marginalia and Wiby are search engines that specifically prioritize non-commercial content. Marginalia also has filters that let you search for more specific categories of website, like wikis, blogs, academia, forums, and vintage sites.

Maybe you wanna log off the modern internet landscape altogether and step back into the pre-social media web altogether, well, Protoweb lets you do just that. It's a proxy service for older browsers (or really just any browser that supports HTTP, but that's mostly old browsers now anyways) that lets you visit restored snapshots of vintage websites.

Protoweb has a lot of Geocities content archived, but if you're interested in that you can find even more old Geocities sites over on the Geocities Gallery

And really this is just general tip-of-the-iceberg stuff. If you dig a little deeper you can find loads more interesting stuff out there. The internet doesn't have to be a miserable place full of nothing but doomposting and targeted ads. The first step to making it less miserable is for YOU, yes YOU, to quit spending all your time on it looking at the handful of miserable websites big tech wants you to spend all your time on.

Expected Turnaround Times with GuestPost.Store

If you’ve ever tried to build backlinks through traditional guest posting, you already know the biggest pain point: time. Between the outreach, content approval, writing, editing, publishing—and let’s not forget the ghosting from blog owners—you could spend weeks just getting a single guest post live. That’s why platforms like GuestPostStore have become a go-to solution for SEO agencies, freelancers, and in-house teams looking to streamline the process.

But one question everyone wants to know before investing in a guest post marketplace is this: How fast can I expect my links to go live?

In this article, we’ll break down what you can realistically expect in terms of turnaround times on GuestPost.Store, what factors can speed things up (or slow them down), and how to plan your SEO timelines accordingly.

Understanding the GuestPost.Store Workflow

To understand turnaround times, it helps to understand the basic workflow of how GuestPost.Store operates. The process looks something like this:

You browse listings from a large database of pre-approved blogs and websites.

You place your order, choosing the domain, URL you want to link to, and anchor text.

You can either:

Provide your own article

Or let GuestPost.Store handle the content creation

The content gets written, submitted to the publisher, and goes through editorial review.

Once approved, the guest post goes live, and you’re notified.

This workflow is generally smoother and more predictable than manual outreach, but the timing varies depending on several key factors.

Typical Turnaround Time Range

In most cases, you can expect links on GuestPost.Store to go live within 5 to 15 business days from the time of your order. Here’s a more detailed breakdown based on our experience and what’s advertised across listings:

Fast-track orders (5–7 business days): These are usually for blogs that have high availability, lighter editorial processes, and responsive webmasters. If you choose to supply your own article, the timeline can be even faster.

Standard timeline (10–14 business days): This is the most common window for content creation, review, and posting. The majority of GuestPost.Store links fall within this range.

Delayed timelines (15+ business days): Occasionally, some placements take a bit longer. This could be due to site-specific issues, content revisions, editorial backlog, or communication delays with publishers.

That said, GuestPost.Store generally keeps things moving and notifies you if a placement is going to take longer than expected.

Factors That Influence Turnaround Times

Not all orders move at the same pace. Here are the key elements that affect how quickly your guest post goes live:

1. Whether You Provide the Content

If you supply your own article, things typically move faster. GuestPost.Store only needs to check the article, confirm it meets the publisher’s standards, and submit it for posting.

If you choose to have them write the content, add 2–4 days to the timeline to account for writing, editing, and internal approval before submission.

Pro tip: If you’re confident in your writing and want the fastest turnaround, consider submitting high-quality, publisher-ready content.

2. The Type of Site You Choose

Some blogs and websites on GuestPost.Store are extremely efficient—usually because they have a full-time editorial team or dedicated SEO staff. These sites can publish within 5–7 days without much back-and-forth.

Others might be smaller or more niche-focused blogs run by individual owners. While still valuable for backlink quality, these sites may need longer publishing cycles, especially if the owner is juggling other responsibilities.

Listings usually indicate average turnaround time in the details, so always check that before placing an order.

3. Content Review and Approval Delays

Even when everything’s in motion, content can sometimes hit a temporary roadblock during the editorial review phase. Some publishers request changes, ask for tweaks to tone or structure, or even come back with new guidelines.

These situations don’t happen often, but they can add a few extra business days to your timeline. In general, GuestPost.Store manages this process for you and handles all communication—but it’s worth being aware that editorial quality control takes time.

4. Volume of Orders

If you place a bulk order of 10+ links, especially across multiple sites, it’s possible not all of them will go live at the same time. GuestPost.Store does a good job managing bulk requests, but content creation and publication schedules differ by site.

A large campaign may take two to three weeks to fully roll out, especially if you're not providing content yourself. If speed is critical, consider splitting the order into smaller batches and prioritizing faster sites first.

5. Publisher Availability or Backlog

Some listings may be marked “temporarily unavailable” or "slower than usual." That usually means the publisher has reached a content threshold for the week or month and is spacing out new posts. These delays are usually flagged before you order, but if a publisher backlog occurs unexpectedly, GuestPost.Store’s support team typically offers to reassign or refund.

For this reason, it's smart to avoid time-sensitive campaigns (like product launches or seasonal pages) being solely dependent on a single guest post.

Realistic Expectations for SEO Campaign Planning

So how should you plan your SEO campaigns around GuestPost.Store’s turnaround time?

Let’s say you're launching a new content hub and want to support it with backlinks. If your goal is to have links live by the end of the month, you should:

Begin placing orders during the first week of the month

Allow 5–14 business days for the majority of links to go live

Leave room for at least 2–3 days of indexing time after publication

Monitor live links via your GuestPost.Store dashboard or your own backlink tools

If you’re managing client SEO, build in buffer time and avoid overpromising ultra-fast results. Explain that while some links may go live quickly, others may take a full two weeks or longer to complete. Setting expectations upfront avoids unnecessary stress later.

Indexing After Publication

Publishing the link is one thing. Getting it indexed by Google is another.

In our experience, around 70–80% of links from GuestPost.Store get indexed within 7–10 days after going live. However, indexing speed depends on the authority of the linking domain and Google’s own crawl behavior.

To speed up indexing, we recommend:

Submitting the live URL to Google Search Console (if you manage the client domain)

Sharing the article on social media or in blog roundups

Building a few internal or secondary links pointing to the guest post

These small actions can help search engines discover and index the guest post faster, letting the link juice begin to flow.

Customer Support and Communication

One thing worth mentioning is GuestPost.Store’s customer support. If a post is delayed beyond the typical window, you can open a support ticket or live chat directly. In most cases, the support team will:

Follow up with the publisher

Provide an updated ETA

Offer alternate options if there’s an issue

This responsiveness is a big plus, especially compared to other marketplaces where communication often feels like shouting into the void.

How to Conduct a Powerful Technical SEO Audit for Your Clients

Technical SEO audits are the foundation for a successful SEO strategy. By identifying and fixing technical issues that hinder search engine crawlability and indexing, you can pave the way for your client’s website to achieve top rankings. This guide delves into the essential steps of conducting a technical SEO audit for your clients, equipping you with valuable tips and insights to optimize their websites for search engine visibility.

What is a Technical SEO Audit?

A technical SEO audit is a comprehensive analysis of a website’s technical health from a search engine’s perspective. It involves crawling the website, identifying technical roadblocks that prevent search engines from efficiently accessing and indexing content, and recommending solutions to improve search engine friendliness.

Why are Technical SEO Audits Important?

Technical SEO audits are crucial for several reasons:

Improved Search Engine Visibility: A website riddled with technical issues like broken links, slow loading times, or mobile-unfriendliness becomes invisible to search engines. Fixing these issues ensures search engines can effectively crawl, index, and understand your client’s website, ultimately leading to better rankings.

Enhanced User Experience: Search engines prioritize user experience. A website with technical glitches like slow loading times or unresponsive design frustrates users. A technical SEO audit helps identify and address these issues, creating a smoother and more enjoyable user experience.

Increased Organic Traffic: By resolving technical SEO problems, you open the door for organic traffic growth. A well-optimized website attracts more visitors from search engines, leading to increased leads, conversions, and sales.

Conducting a Powerful Technical SEO Audit:

Now that we understand the importance of technical SEO audits, let’s delve into the steps involved in conducting a powerful one for your clients:

1. Preparation and Goal Setting:

Gather Information: Before diving in, gather information about your client’s website and SEO goals. What are their target keywords? What are their current rankings? What are their expectations from the audit?

Define Scope: Determine the scope of your audit based on the website’s size and complexity. Will it be a full audit or a crawl focused on specific areas?

2. Choosing the Right Tools:

Several SEO audit tools are available, both free and paid. Here are some popular options to consider:

Free Tools: Google Search Console (GSC), Bing Webmaster Tools, Screaming Frog SEO Spider

Paid Tools: Ahrefs Site Audit, SEMrush Site Audit, Moz Pro Site Crawl

3. Crawling the Website:

The next step is to crawl your client’s website using your chosen tool. Crawling simulates how search engine bots navigate the website, identifying technical issues that might hinder them.

Pro Tip 1: Leverage Google Search Console Data: GSC provides valuable insights into crawl errors and indexation issues. Utilize GSC data to prioritize your crawl and focus on addressing critical problems identified by Google itself.

4. Analyzing the Crawl Report:

Once the crawl is complete, analyze the generated report. Look for issues categorized as errors, warnings, and notices. Here are some key areas to focus on:

Crawlability: Can search engine bots access and navigate all the important pages on the website? Check for issues like robots.txt blocking important content, broken internal links, and non-indexable pages.

Pro Tip 2: Prioritize Mobile Friendliness: Mobile-first indexing is now the norm. Ensure your client’s website is mobile-friendly by checking for responsive design, proper mobile rendering, and fast mobile load times. Use Google’s Mobile-Friendly Test tool for a quick analysis.

Indexation: Are there any pages on the website that search engines shouldn’t index (like login pages or duplicate content)? Is your sitemap properly submitted to search consoles?

Technical SEO Errors: Look for issues like missing title tags and meta descriptions, broken images, and excessive use of no index tags.

Website Speed: Page loading speed is a crucial ranking factor. Analyze page load times and identify areas for improvement, such as image optimization, minification of code, and leveraging a Content Delivery Network (CDN).

5. Digging Deeper with Google Search Console (GSC):

GSC offers a wealth of information beyond the crawl report. Utilize GSC features like:

Coverage Report: This report identifies issues that prevent pages from being indexed, such as crawl errors, server errors, and manual actions.

Mobile Usability Report: This report flags mobile-friendliness issues that could be hindering search performance.

Core Web Vitals Report: This report analyzes page loading speed, responsiveness, and visual stability, all crucial for user experience and SEO.

6. Prioritizing and Fixing Issues:

Don’t try to fix everything at once. Prioritize issues based on their severity and potential impact on SEO performance. Here’s a breakdown:

High Priority: These issues significantly hinder search engine crawling, indexing, or user experience. Examples include crawl errors, missing title tags, and mobile-friendliness problems. Address these issues first.

Medium Priority: These issues can negatively impact SEO performance but are less critical. Examples include broken internal links, slow page load times on specific pages, and missing meta descriptions.

Low Priority: These issues have a minimal impact on SEO and can be addressed later. Examples include typos or minor formatting inconsistencies.

Pro Tip 3: Focus on User Experience: While technical SEO is crucial, remember the user. Prioritize fixing issues that directly impact user experience, such as slow loading times or unresponsive design elements.

7. Reporting and Communication:

Prepare a Clear Report: Present your findings in a clear and concise report for your client. Explain the identified issues, their potential impact, and the recommended solutions. Utilize screenshots and charts for better visualization.

Communicate Effectively: Discuss the report with your client, explaining the importance of addressing the issues. Prioritize communication, keeping them informed throughout the process.

8. Re-evaluation and Ongoing Monitoring:

A technical SEO audit is not a one-time fix. Search engine algorithms and best practices evolve. Regularly re-evaluate your client’s website with periodic audits to identify new issues and ensure ongoing website health. Utilize tools like Google Search Console alerts to stay informed about potential problems.

Bonus Tip: Stay Updated with the Latest Trends:

The SEO landscape is constantly changing. Stay updated on the latest technical SEO best practices and algorithm updates to ensure your audits remain effective. Resources like Google’s Search Central blog and industry publications are valuable sources of information.

Conclusion:

By conducting thorough technical SEO audits, you can empower your clients’ websites to achieve top rankings and attract organic traffic. Remember, a successful technical SEO audit goes beyond just identifying issues. It involves prioritizing, fixing them effectively, and continuously monitoring website health. By following these steps and keeping yourself updated with the latest trends, you can become a technical SEO pro and propel your clients’ websites to success.

How to Remove Spam Backlinks from Google

Google

A Guide by Webigg Technology

Spammy backlinks and negative SEO attacks can damage your search engine rankings and reputation. With Google’s evolving algorithm updates—particularly Penguin—many brands have experienced the harsh effects of malicious link-building, while others remained unaffected. The need to control backlinks pointing to your website has never been more critical.

At Webigg Technology, we help businesses understand and implement strategies to protect their websites from harmful SEO tactics—starting with identifying and disavowing toxic backlinks.

🔍 What Are Spam Backlinks?

Spam backlinks are low-quality or manipulative inbound links pointing to your site, often from unrelated, irrelevant, or malicious domains. These links are usually created with the intent to harm your rankings—a practice known as negative SEO.

💡 Google’s Disavow Links Tool: What It Is & Why It Matters

Google introduced the Disavow Links Tool to help webmasters combat negative SEO and recover from link-based penalties, especially after updates like Penguin.

In simple terms:

If you’ve acquired unnatural backlinks that you cannot remove manually, Google’s Disavow Tool allows you to submit a file requesting Google to ignore those links when assessing your site.

🧩 Why Spam Links Are Dangerous

Hurt your search rankings if considered manipulative

Trigger Google penalties, especially after algorithm updates

Disrupt your domain’s trust signals and long-term SEO efforts

Although Google is good at detecting and neutralizing spam links on its own, heavily targeted websites can still suffer—especially if toxic backlinks come in large volumes.

🛠️ Step-by-Step: How to Use the Disavow Links Tool

Step 1: Identify Harmful Backlinks

Use tools like:

Google Search Console – Export your complete list of backlinks

Ahrefs, SEMrush, or Moz – Analyze backlink quality and anchor text

Step 2: Attempt Manual Removal

Reach out to site owners and request removal of the toxic links. Keep records of these efforts for transparency.

Step 3: Create a Disavow File

This is a .txt file that lists all domains or URLs you want Google to ignore. Format:

makefile

CopyEdit

# Disavow spammy links

domain:spamdomain.com

http://toxiclink.com/bad-page

Step 4: Submit via Google’s Disavow Tool

Go to the official Disavow Links Tool, choose your property, and upload your file.

⚙️ Pro Tip: Use Ahrefs to Speed Up the Process

Ahrefs offers a robust disavow file generator with features like:

Auto-hiding links already disavowed

Sorting links by toxicity

Highlighting newly discovered suspicious domains

This makes it easier for large websites to manage their disavow strategy efficiently.

At Webigg Technology, we recommend using Ahrefs in combination with manual reviews to ensure you're not disavowing valuable or neutral links by mistake.

🚫 When Not to Use the Disavow Tool

Google explicitly advises against using this tool unless:

You’re confident your site has been affected by bad backlinks

You’ve already attempted manual link removals

You understand the SEO consequences of improper disavow use

Misuse can harm your site’s ranking—so use it carefully and only when necessary.

✅ Final Thoughts from Webigg Technology

The Disavow Links Tool is a powerful resource when used wisely. It empowers webmasters to protect their websites from negative SEO and recover from penalties. If your website’s performance has dipped unexpectedly, toxic backlinks could be the cause.

How can I Build Backlinks Safely?

In the ever-evolving landscape of SEO, one question continues to surface: how can I build backlinks safely? Backlinks remain one of the most important ranking factors, but the wrong strategy can lead to penalties instead of progress. Search engines like Google now value quality over quantity—making it essential to focus on ethical, white-hat link-building practices that drive long-term success.

This guide covers effective, safe backlink strategies for 2025 to help you boost your rankings without putting your website at risk.

Why Safe Link Building Matters

When done correctly, backlinks can:

Improve your domain authority

Increase your visibility in search results

Drive targeted referral traffic to your website

But using shady tactics—like buying links or participating in link farms—can do the opposite. Google’s algorithms are smarter than ever and quick to penalize unnatural link patterns.

So, the real challenge is how can I build backlinks safely while still getting the results you need?

How Can I Build Backlinks Safely? Smart Strategies That Work

1. Focus on High-Quality Content That Earns Links Naturally

The best way to attract safe backlinks is to create content that others want to link to.

Tips to create link-worthy content:

Publish original research, stats, or case studies

Write comprehensive guides and tutorials

Include visual content like infographics and videos

Update older posts with fresh data to keep them relevant

Promote this content through email outreach, social media, and forums to get it in front of the right audience.

2. Use Guest Posting—But Do It Right

Guest posting remains a reliable backlink-building method—when done correctly.

Safe guest posting practices:

Only pitch to reputable, relevant sites

Avoid low-quality blogs that exist solely for backlinks

Keep your anchor text natural and vary it (no over-optimized keywords)

Not sure where to start? Try finding websites in your niche with “Write for Us” pages, or build relationships through social media and LinkedIn first.

3. Leverage Broken Link Building

This ethical tactic involves identifying broken links on other sites and suggesting your relevant content as a replacement.

Steps:

Use tools like Ahrefs or Check My Links to find broken URLs

Create or point to a similar resource on your site

Reach out to the webmaster with a helpful, non-salesy message

For a deeper dive into broken link building and other white-hat tactics, check out this guide on the best broken link building techniques.

4. Turn Brand Mentions into Backlinks

If your brand is mentioned online without a link, you’re missing out on an easy backlink opportunity.

How to do it:

Use tools like Google Alerts or Mention to track brand mentions

Reach out and politely ask the site owner to add a link to your mention

Offer context or updates to make the addition worthwhile for their readers

This method not only builds safe backlinks but also strengthens your online presence.

5. Prioritize Relevance and Authority

Backlinks from niche-relevant, authoritative sites carry far more weight than random links.

Safe sources include:

Industry blogs

University (.edu) and government (.gov) domains

Trusted directories (not spammy link farms)

Avoid link exchanges or automated tools that promise hundreds of backlinks—they’re more likely to trigger spam filters than help your SEO.

Final Thoughts: How Can I Build Backlinks Safely in 2025?

If you’re asking, how can I build backlinks safely, the key lies in sustainable, value-driven strategies. Focus on creating content worth linking to, building relationships, and staying away from shortcuts. Safe backlink building takes time—but the results are long-lasting and algorithm-proof.
