Welcome to episode #87 of the SEO Newsletter by #SEOSLY!
Even though it’s summer and a bit slower season for SEOs, a lot of interesting things are happening. The SEO industry is undergoing a transformation we all need to adapt to.
Here is my weekly selection of the most important pieces of SEO news, articles, videos and other resources both from me and other SEOs.
I’ve almost finished working on my new #BetterSEOToday project, so subscribe to it, if you haven’t already and you will soon start receiving weekly recaps of SEO news and tips. If you are my subscriber already, you don’t need to sign up.
Okay, so onto the newsletter.
The SEO Newsletter by #SEOSLY is sponsored by JetOctopus
JetOctopus is a cloud-based website crawler and SEO log analyzer. The tool allows you to analyze your website structure, check for broken links, detect technical SEO issues, and monitor your website’s ranking in search engines.
JetOctopus is the fastest and most affordable SaaS crawler and logs analyzer without limits.
I would not be able to do my work the way I do it without JetOctopus (seriously).
Google Discover + JetOctopus = Powerful SEO combo
Yes, JetOctopus is way more than a crawler and log file analyzer. You can also use it to analyze Google Search Console data. In my latest video, I’m showing you how to make way more sense from your Google Discover traffic.
I’ve audited my own SEOSLY site. Here’s what I found.

Cora Pro SEO Software 25% OFF
Cora SEO Software has been an absolute game-changer for me. I can honestly say that this the the ONLY tool you may need if you want to improve rankings and do it in the most efficient and effective way.
Cora SEO Software is capable of measuring thousands of factors and tells you exactly which ones appear to influence rankings and how much you need of each to compete with higher ranking competitors. More and more we are finding that having a broad diversity of ranking signals is the most important ranking factor and no SEO tool on the market handles factor diversity better than Cora.
You don’t need to believe what I’m saying. Just try for yourself! I have a special lifetime deal 25% OFF (and free training) for my newsletter subscribers.
