  I randomly read Google Trends fine print and I think we’re all using it wrong. 😑 The chart NEVER shows how many people are searching. Not anywhere. It scores a term against its own peak. A score of 100 can be a million searches.. or four hundred. Even if it says "up 200% since last year" it could be a jackpot or 20 people in Kentucky. No one can tell the difference. That’s the problem. (Especially if you’re using it for product/market discovery) So here's a quick test I use now to vet out trends with Google search trends: Line keeps touching zero = small base of searches Smooth line around 70/80 = investigate further with reddit, tiktok hashtags, and junglescout. Jagged line = noise not demand

  Reddit feels spammy because most launch posts are about the product, not the problem it solves. The communities that actually convert are the ones where you spent three months answering questions before anyone knew you were building.

  Libido will go down drastically. Uncontrollable libido too but I do think estrogen plays some part in libido. There was a post on RP Reddit iirc

  Almost nobody in SEO/AEO is talking about this. Local subreddits are quietly outranking business websites in Google for competitive keywords. Dentists, realtors, lawyers. And LLMs are training on this data. The opportunity is wide open right now because most people think Reddit is only useful for niche communities or brand awareness. Local is a completely different game. A well crafted post in a city subreddit can rank for queries like "best dentist in Los Angeles" or "best injury lawyer in Las Vegas" faster than any local business website. Reddit's domain authority does the heavy lifting. You just need to know how to start the right conversation. And that last part is where most people get it wrong. The post cannot look promotional. The whole thing lives or dies on whether real locals engage with it genuinely. I have threads sitting in Google right now for very competitive local keywords in real cities. Both got there without a single paid promotion. And local businesses are paying monthly to stay visible inside them. I broke down the full formula with my live ranking examples. The emotional angle, the post structure, the monetization model, all of it. Want the full breakdown? Like this post, follow with me, comment "LOCAL" and I'll DM you.

  Follow-up on my OpenClaw agent search costs - it's solved and the numbers are wild (before agents were burning 🔥 tokens by the second). The problem was never the searching, it was the architecture: my research agent fetched pages into the LLM's context and every turn re-read everything already there. One job snowballed to $11 on a Raspberry Pi cluster (in a very short time). Paid search APIs were not the answer either (the "free tiers" mostly aren't either). The fix was two pieces: 1. SearXNG, self-hosted - a meta-search engine that queries ~70 sources. One small pod next to the OpenClaw gateways, zero API keys, zero per-query cost and no bot-challenge walls (which were what triggered the retry loops in the first place). OpenClaw supports it natively as a search provider via a plugin (this was my go to problem solver, to replace my origional DDG/Brave search). 2. The last30days skill (open source, MIT) - Is superb. A pure-Python engine that searches Reddit, Hacker News, GitHub, arXiv, Polymarket etc. in parallel, ranks by real engagement (up votes, stars), de-dupes across platforms and hands the model ONE compact brief. All the searching happens outside the model loop - the LLM only pays to read the conclusion. Installs straight into an OpenClaw workspace as a standard skill. Same agents, same Raspberry Pi'ss, same questions: jobs now cost pennies/cents. Slightly slower per job, but hourly cost metering + hard daily spend caps make a runaway structurally impossible. Lesson: don't buy a bigger context window - move the work out of the context. I'm so happy! Thanks @mvanhorn it works really well 👍

  @smasithick This happened to me as well on my Redmi note 11 4g global version when I had updated it from MIUI to HyperOS, they didn't even mention that it will be updated to Android 13. I have seen this similar issues in reddit note 14 4g global version as well.

  Finding it very difficult to dodge the mid, overpriced tourist trap restaurants in Italy. My usual standard of 15 minutes of reddit research which works pretty well in the states is not working here. And chatgpt refuses to summarize Italian language social media posts properly

  The two screenshots below show why AI search is changing Local SEO. 👀 In Screenshot 1, I asked ChatGPT: "Who's the best HVAC company near Dallas?" It returned a broad list of reputable contractors. In Screenshot 2, I changed the prompt to: "Who offers 24/7 commercial HVAC repairs in North Dallas with a 10-year parts warranty?" The recommendations changed. 🧐 The more specific the intent, the fewer businesses qualify. That's the opportunity. (Save this for later and follow for more) Getting cited by AI is great. But basic AI citations are quickly becoming a commodity. If someone asks ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, or another AI assistant, "Who's the best HVAC company near Dallas?", the AI can easily pull a list of businesses from Google Business Profile, Bing Places, directories, and review platforms. Being one of ten options isn't winning. The real opportunity comes with the second question. This is where most contractors disappear. Raw citations help you get into the conversation. Content engineering helps you become the recommendation. The goal isn't simply to appear across the web. It's to build enough evidence that AI can confidently connect your business to highly specific customer intent. That means creating a digital footprint that answers questions like: • Which neighborhoods do you serve? • What emergency services do you provide? • What warranties do you offer? • What equipment and brands do you specialize in? • What types of projects have you completed? • What do customers consistently mention in reviews? Those answers shouldn't exist only on your website. They should also be reinforced through Google reviews, Yelp, BBB, Angi, Reddit, Nextdoor, local news mentions, and other trusted third-party sources. This is where Local SEO is evolving. It's no longer just about ranking in Google Search or the Google Maps Pack. It's about building the trusted digital footprint that AI uses when recommending home service businesses like HVAC companies, plumbers, roofers, and electricians. AI search isn't just a faster Google search. It's a conversational filtering system. Every follow-up question reduces the number of businesses that qualify. The contractors who win won't necessarily have the biggest marketing budget. They'll have the clearest, most trusted, and most consistent digital footprint for the exact problem the homeowner is trying to solve. Stop optimizing just to appear on the list. Start building enough authority and context that AI has every reason to recommend your business first.

  my feed is full of "passive income" posts. set it up once, make money while you sleep. the dream. my actual day: fix a bug before breakfast, answer support tickets during lunch, ship a feature while my wife asks what exactly i've been doing all day. there's nothing passive about this. every euro is earned twice. but when a stranger on reddit says "this tool saved me hours" it hits different. that's the part they don't screenshot.

  How To Start With No Audience And No Connections Think Big Minute #81 No audience. No connections. No warm market. That's the starting line for almost everybody who ever built anything, and most people treat it like a disqualification. It's day one. That's all it is. The excuse version sounds like this: "I don't have a following. I don't know anybody. It's easier for people who are already connected." True, and useless. Every audience on earth started at zero followers. Every connection you envy was a stranger once. Both get built the same way... one rep at a time, by people who started before they felt ready. One thing comes before any of this. Something worth selling. Not perfect. Proven. Perfect is a stall tactic people hide behind for years. Proven means you've done the thing enough times that when someone pays you, they get what they paid for. Your education is your bill, not your customer's. Practice on your own website, your own lawn, your own books, your own projects. Get the reps somewhere that doesn't cost a stranger their money, because charging people while you figure out whether you can deliver is how names get burned early. The good news: the same channels that bring your first customers are where you finish getting good. You're not faking anything. You're proving it, free, until putting a price on it is the obvious next step. The moves run on two clocks. Some pay this month with zero followers. Some compound for years. You want both running at the same time, because the fast ones feed you and the slow ones make sure you never start from zero again. Five moves that work right now, with the real 2026 numbers. Show up in rooms where your buyers already gather. You don't need an audience. Other people already built one, and the door is open. Facebook groups alone have 1.8 billion people in them every month, and 74% of all online communities live there. Add over 100,000 active Reddit communities and the niche forums in every industry, and there's a room full of your exact customers talking about their exact problems right now, for free. The move is simple and almost nobody does it. Join five rooms where your buyers hang out. Answer questions every day. Give your best thinking with no pitch attached. Group content drives 50% more engagement than brand pages because people trust rooms, and the person who keeps solving problems in a room becomes the name that room recommends. Every answer is also a rep. And the rooms pay you again on top of that... the questions people ask, in their own words, are a list of exactly what to sell and how to describe it. The niche move: pick rooms by buyer density, not size. Two thousand plumbing company owners beats two hundred thousand random marketers. And read the group rules. Getting banned for pitching on day two ends the channel. Publish something every day on one platform. The compounding clock. Slow, then unstoppable. Only about 1% of LinkedIn's 1.3 billion members post content weekly. That 1% collects around 9 billion impressions a week. Posting three to four times a week puts you in the top 10% of the platform. The stage is close to empty, and everyone scrolling assumes it's crowded. And small is an advantage here. Accounts under 1,000 followers average 4 to 8% engagement while the big accounts sit at 1 to 3%, because small accounts talk to people instead of at them. You don't need expertise nobody else has. You need to write down what you're practicing, what worked, what didn't, and what the numbers were. Content built on a real story gets 38% more engagement than promotional content. Your first weeks of posts will get ignored. Post anyway. The audience that matters shows up in month four and scrolls back through everything, and what they find is a public record of you getting good. The niche move: one platform, one topic, same time every day. The person who posts about one thing for six months owns that thing in their corner of the internet. Cold outreach. The channel built for people who know nobody, because it requires knowing nobody. Run it once you can deliver, not before. The 2026 numbers: the average cold email gets a 3.43% reply rate. Sounds brutal until you see the spread. Generic blasts get under 1%. Personalized messages to a tight list hit 15 to 18%. Same channel, 15x difference, and the difference is effort. The mechanics are mapped. Lists under 50 people get 5.8% replies while lists of 500 plus get 2.1%, so go smaller and deeper. Keep the first message under 80 words. Reference one specific thing about their business, because inboxes are drowning in lazy Ai written templates and one human sentence stands out like a flare. And follow up, because 44% of all replies come from follow ups and 48% of people never send a single one. The first follow up alone lifts replies by 65.8%. Run it properly and the math is honest work: the best campaigns book 2 to 3 real conversations per 100 messages. Fifty good messages a week is 8 to 12 conversations a month with people who had never heard of you. The niche move: pick 30 dream customers and study them instead of blasting 3,000 strangers. Good news for someone with more time than money. Borrow audiences other people already built. Podcasts, newsletters, YouTube channels, and communities all run on the same fuel: they need things to say. You can be the thing. There are about 4.7 million podcasts registered and only around 480,000 actively publishing, and the active interview shows need a constant supply of guests to survive. An analysis of 8,757 real guest pitches this year found bookings peak on shows with under 1,000 listeners, and shows in the 1,000 to 10,000 range are the sweet spot of reach and yes rates. Translation: the shows you can actually get on are the ones worth getting on. Nobody books a guest with nothing to say. This move comes after the reps, when you can pitch with receipts... real work, real results, real numbers. That pitch gets booked. The niche move: stack small. Ten shows with 800 true listeners in your niche beat one show with 50,000 randoms, and every episode is a permanent piece of proof strangers can find forever. Own the list. Every move above rents attention. This one buys it. Email returns $36 to $42 for every dollar spent, against about $2 for paid search and $2.80 for social ads. Email converts at 4.24% while social converts at 0.59%. And the structural reason matters more than the numbers: organic social shows your post to maybe 2 to 10% of your own followers, while email reaches everyone on the list every time, because no algorithm sits between you and them. So from day one, turn strangers into addresses. One simple page. One free thing worth trading an email for. One useful email a week. That's the entire machine. Platforms change their rules whenever they want. The list is yours. The niche move: make the free thing solve one narrow problem completely. A checklist that actually works beats an ebook nobody finishes. The sequence is the whole strategy. Get good on your own projects. Give real help away free in public. Charge when it's proven. Deliver when you charge. Free work in public does three jobs at once... every answer is a rep that makes you better, every answer sitting in a room is proof a stranger can verify, and the people watching become the audience. By the time you put a price on it, nobody is gambling on you. They watched you do the work. That's what separates this from fake it till you make it. Faking it puts the price on first and lets customers pay for your education. Two failure patterns, same funeral. One charges before they can deliver and burns their name in every room that could have fed them for years. The other polishes in a cave waiting to feel ready, launches to nobody, and makes nothing. The fix for both is identical: get good in public, for free, on a schedule. And every move on this list is a volume game. A hundred posts before you judge the platform. Fifty outreach messages a week. Twenty answered questions a room. Ten podcast pitches a month. Most people make five attempts at one of these, hear silence, and declare it doesn't work. The channel works. Five reps was never going to. Pick one fast move and one slow move. Rooms or outreach to eat now, publishing or the list to compound. Six months, daily, before you're allowed an opinion on whether it's working. Because the payoff isn't one customer. An audience is the asset that makes every business you ever start cheaper to launch than the last one. You build it once. It pays you for decades. If you can't deliver yet, spend the next 60 days practicing on your own projects and posting the results. If you can deliver and need revenue this month, start cold outreach tomorrow. If you'd rather earn trust than send messages, live in the rooms. If you're playing a long game, publish daily and start the list this week. If you've got 90 days of reps behind you, go pitch ten small shows. Nobody knows you yet. Everybody starts there. The only mistake is staying there. Post the first thing today. Send the first message tonight. Think Big
