Running a small agency and we have been testing a bunch of tools over the past few months. Curious what others are actually using day to day, not just what gets recommended in listicles. Specifically looking for stuff that helps with content, reporting, and client communication. What has actually stuck for your team?
Working on pulling product data from a few ecom sites. Started with Scrapy, which is fine for basic pages, but breaks once JS or anti bot kicks in. I can get it working with Playwright, but scaling that looks messy.
For people doing this long term, do you stick with libraries or just move to APIs and accept the cost?
Every year my kids ask me what I want and every year I say "nothing, just hang out with me" and every year they panic and get me a mug or a custom Tshirt which I appreciate too. What do you actually want this Father's Day? Or better, what is the best gift you have ever gotten that you genuinely loved?
RRR2303 (Voyager KC2/KC3) at 40,000ft over the Aegean was heading west, and RRR9902 simultaneously tracked near Sinai at 28,000ft. That's two RAF tankers in the same window.
The RRR callsign block is dedicated RAF air-to-air refuelling so these aren't transits. Someone was getting fuel out there.
Planning a trip to Asia and have been going back and forth on Qatar Airways for a while now. The routes through Doha look solid and the reviews are generally good but I'm genuinely not sure if the experience justifies what they're currently asking for on my route from Poland.
For people who've flown with them, is it actually worth it compared to other carriers in the same price range? Also curious how the Privilege Club holds up for a first timer, is it worth factoring in or just noise?
Any firsthand experience with them would really help me make up my mind.
Done a lot of SEO research with proxies over the years. Residential has always been the go to for local SERP checking but lately geo accuracy has been slipping on a few providers. Anyone else noticing this?
Running a scraper that pulls a lot of product pages daily. Nothing super advanced. Started with datacenter proxies because of cost. Speed is great, but getting blocked more often now, especially on a few bigger sites. Trying to decide if I should keep tweaking this or just move to residential proxies.
Looking for tools that actually help with the technical side, things like crawling, site audits, structured data and page optimization. Could you share your worflow tools please?
We're running a digital agency and have noticed that a growing number of our tracked keywords are now triggering Google AI Overviews instead of returning traditional organic results. We're trying to understand the pattern, what signals determine when Google serves an AI Overview vs standard SERPs, and how it's affecting traffic and visibility for our clients.
I've been looking for a Google AI Overview checking tool, a lot to choose from right now. I was wondering what do you guys use and what could you suggest?
