“Link juice” is the worst.

Who even comes up with these terms? So tacky.

Seriously. LOL.

Yeah, exactly.

Absolutely the worst.

“Niche edits.” Just say what you mean.

“Ninja,” “guru,” or “boost your SEO.” All equally bad.

“Just follow EEAT bro.” Thanks, super helpful.

Everything MOZ put out between 2009 and 2015. Rand had good ideas, but the cringe was unbearable.

You missed the era when “juice” or “link juice” was thrown around like it actually meant something serious.

“Take you to the next level.” Ugh.

What’s worse is the ones saying it think they’re absolute experts.

“Dominate the market.” Please stop.

“Page one ranking guaranteed or your money back.” Makes me want to puke.

At least you get your money back, I guess.

What if they rank you for something completely unrelated though?

@Brown
Then I’d definitely want my money back. But if they get me ranked for something useful, I’d stay.
