practicaldatascience.co.uk

Last but not least a very technical blog to boost your #DataScience skills and merge them with #DigitalMarketing and SEO. Underrated but definitely one of the best blogs out there.
kaggle.com/eliasdabbas/co…

The Kaggle code section from the creator of #advertools, one top tier library for SEM tasks
oncrawl.com/technical-seo/…

Some articles from Oncrawl contain Python examples. You should read it regardless!

Speaking of which, I will show you my article!
learningseo.io/automate-tasks/

Python resources are included in the best learning resources too!
Any other resource that offers courses or suchlike (i.e. DataCamp/Dataquest/Real Python).

Their blogs are very rich and contain quite some useful ideas for Python.
realpython.com

Real Python is my favorite because it's so complete and detailed, definitely recommended. It's not specific to SEO, it's just Python.

They also offer paid courses, I want to try them because they seem super-specific.
datacamp.com/blog

DataCamp offers paid courses and has a curated blog section. Recommended if you want to learn multiple technologies.
lazarinastoy.com

Cool examples and lots of original projects. Especially for Data Studio and NLP.
Side note: Python alone has limits, consider learning SQL as well and some tool like Tableau/PowerBI.

#R is even better imho to replace Python if you are more on the business side and you care about advanced Statistics libraries.
My future blog because I am working on it lol

I hope to go live by the end of April at most. I will include articles about content marketing, coding, data, and SEO.

For any requests let me know.

Brand new website (@ShortAutomaton), let's give it a try! Super cute Mascotte :3
The choice is up to you, if you want to learn fast pick those websites that contain more tutorials or material for beginners.

Then move on to more technical content and test what you have to improve.

Some libraries require a lot of time and they can be quite hard.
My suggestion is to learn how to handle common projects and start right away by adding value to your workflows.

Don't even bother to go big at first, it's fine to know 3 libraries!

Scraping and analysis should take priority.
I recommend blogs or websites over books because they are more actionable and you usually care about specific use cases.

If you want to take the Python path then go into detail and beyond SEO.

This is what I am trying to do right now.
Many Python alternatives are even better for some use cases.

The reason why we use it is the tremendous support and quantity of information. There are libraries for any task too!

It's the easiest choice for beginners and the most suitable for SEO.
You may want to learn SQL and some DataViz tools to complete your skillset.

This is not necessary to replace Excel, so don't worry if you are just starting.

When you are confident enough move to SQL because it's extremely important.
I am not into JS and not a masochist. If you want to go into pure Technical SEO consider learning it too.

I would say that you should prefer JS over Python in such cases.

If you are like me and you like data more, the choice is quite clear instead.
These websites can give you years of lessons and a lot of reasons to spend some quality time reading.

Be proactive and run experiments. Use Google Colab to prototype fast and reduce the number of import errors.

Installing lots of libraries to your local machine isn't good. >>>
>>> The reason is that you may use them once and waste more minutes. Just use Colab and test what you need to.

An alternative is to learn what to touch and modify existing code. This is fine and it works pretty well.
Then, you don't need to be a master, understand what to touch and how to use some libraries.

You can safely ignore the rest if you want a superficial level of knowledge, that's totally fine.

Forgot about this one, super useful for scripts!

Some daily considerations about Semantic #SEO, #Python, and strategy for your next project.

This time I am going to include new stuff and write not-so-obvious considerations.

Your updated thread for improving your knowledge about data 🧡
Semantic SEO is different from the simple topic cluster approach. Here you are interested in connections about entities and ontologies.

In other words, you want to have a clear idea of how to create links between your pages and proper navigation based on evidence. >>>
>>> The traditional cluster approach has no mention of all these elements. Creating content is not going to make the difference if you cannot build a network.

This is true in highly competitive environments where you need some "authority" to be deemed worthy.

Some interesting considerations on data for #SEO and how it's very easy to lie with them.

And ok, some curiosities and strange facts as well, keep reading. A thread to open your eyes 🧡
Let's start with the very basics. For big brands, you should always filter out branded keywords in Google Search Console, no option here.

You want to attract those people who aren't directly searching for you.
Filter by query and select Custom (regex), then just select "doesn't match" and insert all the branded terms. To select more use the pipe operator |, it means OR. Image

Some personal #SEO lessons I learned while studying and practicing.

Updated thread about something that is not so obvious for many people 🧡
Soft skills are extremely important. The first time you hear about them they seem fluff, it's the opposite.

Convincing stakeholders and negotiating are the most valuable skills for my own experience.

It takes time to develop them but it's worth it.
Variety is great. This doesn't just apply to your workplace but your skillset as well.

Exploring new things and going over prejudices involving other disciplines is super valuable learning.

That's why I find it stupid to brag about years of experience, anything can change.

#SEO has gone through a lot of changes and a lot of people have to catch up.

In this thread, I want to analyze some SEO trends for 2022. Some of these topics are actually old but recently exploded in popularity 🧡
Knowledge Graphs. I often mention them, one of the key ideas people often forget about. I don't understand why this isn't more popular!

It's one of the most important concepts for Semantic SEO.

inlinks.net/p/knowledge-gr…
Without a proper understanding of how a semantic search engine works, you will face a lot of troubles in the years to come.

The future of search is going towards entities and their relationships. It's a better way to provide search results.

What if the problem is not #SEO related? How come, you are an SEO and you face a problem that is not connected to your job... or is it?

A thread about the importance of value proposition and quality for every SEO project 🧡
SEO is just one part of the story. It is not the only digital channel and will never be.

I prefer to focus on SEO because that's my path. This doesn't mean a business should do SEO. Being holistic is key.

That's why understanding how you want to reach your audience comes first.
Business and Marketing are not about having a good product and that's it. They cover other areas of interest and techniques that promote what you sell.

There are bad products with excellent marketing or vice versa. In some cases, they are both bad.

People who are just starting in #SEO have a higher chance of meeting those pesky SEO myths and common beliefs.

This thread is for beginners and is aimed at understanding and preventing the most common pitfalls for learning SEO, plus some tips 🧡
Let's start with the basics, my recommendation will always be to start from the following free resources:

- learningseo.io
- developers.google.com/search/docs/be…

These 2 are the bare minimum and are correct. You don't need anything else to start.
The most common belief they want to sell you is that SEO is business independent. Let me explain, claiming that the subject is a set of techniques or something you can apply indiscriminately.

SEO overlaps with a lot of other subjects, it is not a watertight compartment.
