SEO advice from people who actually started from 0 👀
Honestly, Reddit communities like helped me more than most “SEO gurus” when I was starting out 😅
What actually worked:
- targeting low competition keywords
- posting genuinely helpful content
- building topical authority
- internal linking
- answering real questions on Reddit/Quora
Biggest surprise?
One useful Reddit comment sometimes brought more traffic than an entire blog post.
What was mostly a waste of time:
- spammy backlinks
- mass bookmarking/directories
- pumping out AI content with no real value
If I had to start from 0 again, I’d focus on useful niche content + Reddit distribution from day one.
