New from me:
I’m launching my Forecasting For SEO course next month.
It’s everything I’ve learned, tried and tested about SEO forecasting.

I’ve also been inspired by what others are doing: @tom_hirst, @dvassallo and @azarchick 👏👏
And their guts to be build so openly in public.
In the last 2 years I’ve only written 3 blog posts on my site.
- Probabilistic thinking in SEO
- Rethinking technical SEO audits
- How to deliver better SEO strategies.
I only write when I feel like I’ve got something to say.

There are mixed feelings about forecasting in the SEO industry.
Uncertainty is everywhere. Algorithm updates impacting rankings, economic challenges impacting demand.
It’s difficult. 😩
But forecasts are an expectation. You often need them to win pitches, or to get budget.
My aim with the course isn’t to shy away from the challenges. But to show you how you can embrace uncertainty & communicate it.
I got some excellent feedback on topics to include from a few experienced SEOs. 🙌
I added all of the feedback to @NotionHQ and consolidated the most common feedback into a broad outline - including some topics I was keen on including.
I’ve opted for video vs an e-book. There’ll be some templates included, so it’s just easier to do video demos.
I’ve already started creating slides in @BeautifulAI_ and they’ll be exported to Keynote on final edit for transitions and subtle animation. 😎
I like the idea of reach > revenue shared by @tom_hirst
Pre-launch pricing will be $29 and will increase to $59 for launch. 🚀 https://t.co/4Ljq5jYsyA
Here's my thinking:
— Tom Hirst (@tom_hirst) January 5, 2021
1. Being a new creator, I first need reach.
2. I don't rely on the money from sales, so I can experiment.
3. There are nuances between pricing services and products.

OK I am going to be tackling this as surveillance/open source intel gathering exercise, because that is my background. I blew away 3 years of my life doing site acquisition/reconnaissance for a certain industry that shall remain unnamed and believe there is significant carryover.
This is NOT going to be zillow "here is how to google school districts and find walmart" we are not concerned with this malarkey, we are homeschooling and planting victory gardens and having gigantic happy families.
With that said, for my frog and frog-adjacent bros and sisters:
CHOICE SITES:
Zillow is obvious one, but there are many good sites like Billy Land, Classic Country Land, Landwatch, etc. and many of these specialize in owner financing (more on that later.) Do NOT treat these as authoritative sources - trust plat maps and parcel viewers.
TARGET IDENTIFICATION AND EVALUATION:
Okay, everyone knows how to google "raw land in x state" but there are other resources out there, including state Departments of Natural Resources, foreclosure auctions, etc. Finding the land you like is the easy part. Let's do a case study.
I'm going to target using an "off-grid but not" algorithm. This is a good piece in my book - middle of nowhere but still trekkable to civilization.
Note: visible power, power/fiber pedestal, utility corridor, nearby commercial enterprise(s), and utility pole shadows visible.
If I did thred on finding/acquiring decent raw land would that be something pepo are interested in

I’m torn on how to approach the idea of luck. I’m the first to admit that I am one of the luckiest people on the planet. To be born into a prosperous American family in 1960 with smart parents is to start life on third base. The odds against my very existence are astronomical.
I’ve always felt that the luckiest people I know had a talent for recognizing circumstances, not of their own making, that were conducive to a favorable outcome and their ability to quickly take advantage of them.
In other words, dumb luck was just that, it required no awareness on the person’s part, whereas “smart” luck involved awareness followed by action before the circumstances changed.
So, was I “lucky” to be born when I was—nothing I had any control over—and that I came of age just as huge databases and computers were advancing to the point where I could use those tools to write “What Works on Wall Street?” Absolutely.
Was I lucky to start my stock market investments near the peak of interest rates which allowed me to spend the majority of my adult life in a falling rate environment? Yup.

"Luck is the flip side of risk. They are mirrored cousins, driven by the same thing: You are one person in a 7 billion player game, and the accidental impact of other people\u2019s actions can be more consequential than your own."
