Hey everyone,

I’m a digital marketer with SEO experience, and recently I’ve been very interested in AI agents that can automate SEO tasks for websites.

I want to learn how to build an AI SEO agent that can do things like:

• Website audits
• Keyword research
• Content optimization
• Internal linking suggestions
• Technical SEO checks
• Competitor analysis
• AI content workflows
• Automated reporting

Basically, I want to understand how to create an AI-powered SEO system that can analyze almost any website and provide actionable recommendations.

I’m looking for:

• Best courses or YouTube channels
• Communities or Discord groups
• GitHub projects/open-source tools
• Tech stack recommendations
• Learning roadmap (AI + SEO + automation)
• Tools like LangChain, OpenAI API, MCP, RAG, vector DBs, etc.

If anyone has already built something similar or is learning this, I’d love to hear your suggestions and experiences.

It's getting ridiculous now.

Every single day I open this sub and what do I see? Another post asking "where can I buy Instagram followers", "best site for TikTok likes", "get instagram followers", "buy TikTok likes for cheap" And then in the comments? Ten different burner accounts shilling the same sketchy websites nobody has ever heard of.

This is not digital marketing. This is just spam. Straight up spam dressed up as a question.

What is even going on with this place lately? Half the posts here are people pretending to ask for advice but really just promoting their own follower farms. The other half are bots in the comments hyping up these garbage services. The actual quality content is getting buried under this nonsense and the whole sub is starting to feel useless.

A few things that genuinely need to happen:

1. Automod should auto remove any post containing phrases like "buy followers", "buy likes", "buy views", "buy  followers", "get followers", etc. It's not rocket science, automod can handle this in five minutes.
2. Ban accounts that keep recommending these sites in the comments. Most of them are clearly the same operators running multiple accounts. You can see it in the posting patterns.
3. Maybe pin a megathread or a wiki page explaining why buying engagement is a terrible idea for anyone actually trying to grow. Bought followers don't engage, the algorithms detect it, your reach gets nuked, and you waste money. That's it. That's the whole story.

To the mods: I get that moderating is unpaid work and the spam volume is probably insane to deal with, but right now this sub is becoming a graveyard. Real marketers are leaving because they can't find real discussion anymore. Something needs to change before this place gets messed.

To everyone else reading this: stop upvoting these posts out of curiosity. Stop engaging in the comments. Report them. That is genuinely the only way the spam dies down.

This sub used to actually be useful for learning digital marketing. Let's please get back to that.

Hi,
I was comparing a few Telegram channels in a niche group I follow, and one thing stood out pretty clearly. Even when content quality is similar, the channels with higher member counts always seem to pull attention faster.

The main issue I’m running into is that Telegram feels slow at the beginning stage. You can post useful updates, but if the channel looks too new or inactive, most people don’t really take the step to join. It becomes a visibility problem more than a content problem.

That’s why I started exploring the idea of buying Telegram members, mainly to get past that initial “empty channel” phase. The thought is that a stronger-looking base can improve credibility, social proof, and make real users more comfortable joining and engaging.

If I ever test it, I’d only be looking for gradual delivery, real-looking and active accounts, stable retention, and no sudden drops. Something that blends with organic growth instead of making the channel look artificially boosted.

Has anyone here actually tried this approach for Telegram growth? Curious what your experience was like and if any services actually helped with steady, natural-looking channel growth over time.

Feels like marketers spend a lot of time optimizing things clients barely notice.

Meanwhile, most clients mainly care about:

• leads
• sales
• clarity
• communication

What is something marketers obsess over that clients usually don’t care much about?

Still feels weird that we have advanced SEO tools for everything, but tracking mentions in ChatGPT/Gemini/Perplexity is mostly manual.

Are yo guys using any AI visibility trackers yet or just testing prompts manually?

What do you guys use for ad automation for the above platforms? Meta in particular is a pain in the meat seat. Also what do you all use for SEO optimization? I’ve heard a lot of good things about Opinly.

People scroll through so much content every day that even good marketing gets ignored fast. The hard part now isn’t just getting views, it’s making people actually stop and care.

​I’ve been actively applying for Digital Marketing roles for the last 4 months, but I’m still struggling to convert opportunities into interviews or second rounds.

​I have:

​2 years of experience in Talent Acquisition/Client Acquisition

​Portfolio and assignments ready

​Hands-on learning in Digital Marketing in Tutedude

​Recruiter calls occasionally

​A 3-year career break

​Even after sharing my portfolio, assignments, and answering interview questions confidently, I’m often not hearing back after the first round.

​I genuinely want to understand:

​Is the career break affecting my profile heavily?

​Am I missing something in my resume or interview approach?

​Are there better ways to apply apart from Naukri and LinkedIn?

​How are others transitioning into Digital Marketing successfully?

​I’m open to honest feedback, networking, referrals, freelance opportunities, internships, or suggestions that could help me improve.

​Thank you in advance to anyone willing to guide me.

Been manually checking ChatGPT/Gemini mentions for brands, and honestly, it's getting messy.

Curious if others here are using GEO tools yet or still doing everything manually.

Linear.app AEO audit

are llm engines really drawing from youtube video transcripts this heavily when it comes to product recommendations sometimes?

i guess maybe since general user prompts also overlap quite heavily with the title of these '{saas product} alternatives" videos and authority is easier to gauge from youtube accounts as opposed to reddit?

could be the case for just this report on Linear but interesting that almost 50% of the cited urls were youtube

Last week, I was stuck and depressed in a creative rut, staring at a blank screen. Out of pure exhaustion, I dumped my notes into an AI tool and asked for 10 ad hooks.Three seconds later, I got a flawless list. The grammar was perfect, the keywords were there.

But when I read them and completely soulless they were mechanically correct, but they did not feel like anything a real person would say.

It made me realize how much we are confusing content generation with actual marketing lately and followed

• AI is the machine: It’s incredible for data, speed, and patterns. It tells you what people buy.
• Marketing is the human: It’s empathy, psychology, and gut instinct. It understands why people buy the real emotions and frustrations.

I am very curious to know about your thoughts, ideas and hacks that how are you keeping the human touch alive in your campaigns?

I want to learn google analytics, but i am confused on where to start and how to start

I already know some basics of marketing and analytics , but i want to understand ga4 in a practical way, not just some random videos or tutorials

How to start?

What are the topics that i need to focus on?

As a beginner in this what i need to keep track of?

Would really appreciate you advice on this

Wondering if proximity still means anything or if it's just about the work. Have you seen a real difference in results or communication?
