Channel Feedback

Hi, I want some feedback on my channel in general.

To give some background first before you do - I am a student of interaction design. Former electronics technician. I am doing a project right now about wearables I clothing. My channel will always focus on design, electronics stuff and the projects I do in general.

This is slowly building into a business to find clients and to inspire people to learn these things as well.

If you fit as someone who would watch those things... please enjoy! Otherwise.... please check it out anyways and let me know what you think! I appreciate any and all feedback! Totally up to you to decide what you wish to say, so long as it follows the rules of the subreddit of course! I see this as a form of design in of itself. 😇

Here is my channel link:

16th post in 4 weeks old blog, 2nd ranked on Google with three words keywords.

Indexed on Google. 2 hours after index requested. And just for a curiosity, I queried three words keywords 5 hours afterward.

I have nearly zero experience in SEO and blogging. To my surprise, my 16th post on 2nd ranked on Google.

What's that? No significant increase in impressions and clicks.

Anyway, what happened? Algorithm error?

Anybody with similar experience?

How Do You Deal With Google Indexing issues?

I have a blog with over 200 articles, and it's a 6-year blog. The problem I have right now is that only 60 articles are indexed. The rest fall into different categories like crawled not indexed, discovered not indexed, and blocked by TXT.

In the past, I used to deal with it by editing the articles and requesting indexing manually, but I think it has not worked well. How do you deal with your indexing issues, because it feels like adding more articles when most of them remain indexed doesn't help much.

Here's an article on how the oil companies control the climate change narrative even amidst glaring consequences.

anyone else notice how much longer people stick around on a page when there's something interactive to play with? I added a simple calculator to one of my posts a while back and the time on page difference was kind of embarrassing compared to everything else I'd tried.

Anyway I've been working on a side project called SpeedCalcs (speedcalcs.com) it's basically a library of 300+ free calculators across a bunch of niches like finance, health, travel, pets, food, auto and more the main thing though is a custom calculator service where I build an embeddable widget specific to your site for $60.

Here's the thing: I want real reviews from real bloggers and site owners not testimonials I wrote myself so I'm giving away 10 completely free custom calculators in exchange for honest review — good, bad whatever you actually think.

Use code VA5Q6R6 at speedcalcs.com and it takes the price to $0. No trial, no subscription trap, no free but actually... situation. You just get the calculator built and embedded and I ask that you leave an honest review afterward.

If you're interested, drop a comment or DM me with your site's niche and what kind of calculator might actually be useful for your audience. I'll confirm your spot from there.

Once the 10 spots are gone, they're gone I can't realistically build unlimited free ones but wanted to offer it here first since this community tends to have people who'd actually give useful feedback.

Thanks for reading

Shall Be Free Indeed

🔗 Link: https://mcgitruechristian.wordpress.com/2026/07/01/shall-be-free-indeed/
📖 Blog: Journal of a True Christian (WordPress)

📝 Snippet / Summary:
Shall Be Free Indeed explores the freedom that Jesus Christ alone can give—a freedom that goes beyond physical liberty or outward religion. Rooted in John 8:31–36, the post emphasizes that true freedom begins by continuing in Christ's word, knowing the truth, and being set free from the bondage of sin. It highlights that genuine liberty is not found in human effort, traditions, or worldly independence, but in a life transformed through faithful obedience to Christ. Those whom the Son sets free are no longer slaves to sin but are called to walk in righteousness, truth, and the hope of eternal life. True freedom is not simply the absence of restraint—it is the ability to live according to God's will through Christ.

🎯 Value Intent:
To encourage readers to examine whether they are experiencing the freedom Christ promised—not merely freedom from outward burdens, but freedom from sin, deception, and spiritual bondage. The post calls believers to remain in Christ's teachings, where true liberty produces faithful obedience, lasting peace, and a transformed life.

💬 Discussion Prompt / Flair:
“What does being ‘free indeed’ mean to you? How has remaining in Christ's word changed your understanding of true freedom?”

Code review in the age of AI

LLMs have made writing code faster than ever. However, one new problem that has emerged is the bottleneck caused by code review.

Generating thousands of lines of code now takes just a few minutes. The problem is that someone still has to read, understand, and evaluate that code. In my latest Substack article, I discuss:
- why code review has become a greater challenge than ever before,
- what can be done to mitigate the problem of the rapidly growing volume of code to review,
- when you might consider doing away with mandatory code review, and what conditions should be met in that case.

If your project uses Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, or other AI assistants daily, this problem likely affects you as well.

Writing on platforms instead of my own site was a mistake (self promo)

Nonfiction. For people curious about whether Substack was the right move.

Wanting to switch from square space

Hi everyone. I am wanting to switch from hosting my blog on squarespace- does anyone know if you’re able to upload “templates” into word press? This might make no sense so let me know if it doesn’t 😂

New revenue stream for bloggers - earn commissions from your existing articles

Hey everyone - first time posting in here.

A friend and I are building IntroLinq.com - a new tool that helps bloggers generate additional revenue from content they're already publishing.

We have been in the paid expertise space for a few years and realised that a lot of blog content naturally leads to a need for expert advice beyond the author. For example, someone reading an article about investing, nutrition, career growth, legal issues etc. and the natural next step is to look for an expert - hence we receive a lot of bookings.

We're building a simple add-on that bloggers can install with a single line of code. It scans articles and blog posts for passages where a reader might benefit from expert advice, and suggests someone from our database of 5,000+ experts.

When a reader books a consultation, the blogger earns a commission.

The idea isn't to replace ads, affiliate links or sponsorships - it's simply an additional monetisation layer that runs in the background and adds value for the readers at the same time.

We're looking for a few early partners to test this with.

If you have an active blog, please DM me.

Happy to answer questions in the comments too.

Thanks

Dan

My Blog is Like My Private Journal

About 10 years ago I started the practice of keeping a private journal. At first it was something I used only occasionally, but over time it became a big part of my day-to-day routine.

While being away for college, living through COVID, and being in and out of the workforce after graduation, journaling became a way for me to connect with myself and organize my thoughts at a time when I needed it.

Over the years the idea of taking my private journal entries and sharing them in a public way was something that I played around with, even if it would be more edited/curated than what I was writing normally.

Finally in late 2024 I put that idea in motion when I started my blog.

My Website, Four Redesigns Later

Hi everyone! I just wanted to plug my personal blog in which I mostly just write about my thoughts and experiences, linux, selfhosting and homelabbing, and all that kind of stuff. Here is one of my posts, https://cheztervargas.xyz/blog/the-website, where I talk about the redesigns that my website has gone through.

Actually, that's also the focus I wanted to share with you all. The fact that my website is built with basic html/css/js with a c++ http server I coded manually to fetch my posts from my own files and the reaction button on each post. I'm really proud of my work and hope that some of you would go and take a look though I am not really that keen on promoting my blog a lot because I'm a bit shy when it comes to attention, but I was just really really proud of this that made me want to share it with the public.

P.S. I also realized that my writing on this particular post was a bit unpolished so go easy on me pls and thanks!
