It’s gunna be a long one so I suggest getting your self a drink get comfy and I’ll try to make it the easiest read I can. As the title suggests this is what happened to me, my wife and our 2 year old son. The lord as my witness everything written is 100 percent true and accurate with many witnesses.
I don’t even know where to start this so I’ll just go from where I feel is relevant, I 31 male moved to Cornwall uk in 2018 then 24 coming up to 25. I moved into a beautiful one bedroom flat with sea views with nothing but a motorbike 1 bag on my back and a starting date for work 18th February 2018.
All was fine everything was going good life was finally looking up I moved from a city to rural countryside breathtaking beaches, beautiful people and I was ready to finally start adulthood. When I moved into my flat I had nothing, absolutely nothing apart from 7 days worth of clean boxers and socks a guitar and some chef whites. The flat was unfurnished apart from a bed frame and a chest of drawers so naturally I would have to buy everything I needed while I was there, I didn’t even have a mattress for my bed. 2018 was a big year for Cornwall as we had the beast of the east, heavy snow (now I like snow and being a northern boy I was used to it but this stuff came down thick and heavy)! As I said I had a motorbike for transport and I was in work when the beast of the east hit and obviously couldn’t ride back home as the snow was about 2 ft deep by the time I left.
So I walk home and as soon as you entered my flat my bedroom was to the right of the front door a cubard directly in front of you my bathroom just to the left and my living room just down the hallway to the left also. In my hall way I had a shoe rack where I always used to put my shoes, now given I had just walked 3 miles in the snow I could swear I put my bike boots on said shoe rack when I got home. Any way I carried on with my evening as normal and played guitar drank a few beers and just generally chilled before getting my head down. I was sleeping on my couch as my mattress hadn’t arrived yet, but the next morning when I woke up my bike boots was in-front of the couch like some one had jumped on them walked up to where I was sleeping and jumped out. Not only that my heater had been pulled out of the alcove it was in and turned on. I passed this off as nothing it was probably just me and I didn’t remember.
Fast forward a few months nearly a year and I’m all settled my flat is great, my work is great life is good. I met a beautiful young lady (that’s now my wife) although we just started as friends. I’m so happy.
How ever I worked on a holiday park as a chef, one day I get a knock on the back door to the kitchen. There was a man that I had been serving all week and he said sorry to bother you but my wife would like a word with you. Now I’m thinking great what have I done now. But she was smiling and happy and said to me is your gf or wife pregnant I had neither at the time, so I responded nope why do you ask? She told me her name it was carrol (forget her second name) she was a head at a spiritual church in wales. She proceeded to tell me I had a little boys spirit following me around and she could see him. I didn’t know how to react, so I just said oh ok really! And took her details added her on Facebook etc etc, now a few months go by things in the flat was getting weird not that I recognised at the time but like things moving / going missing and I just played it off like it was me being tired from work.
Again fast forward a little bit I’m dating my now wife and mother to my children, she’s staying over but she worked evenings till early hours in the morning when i would wait to go pick her up, at this point I had sold my motorbike to buy a car (more practical and I needed one as per the condition where I worked was I had to have a car to collect stock of a morning).
One night she was in work I was sat at my table designing her tattoo for the back of her leg as I love to draw, I used to have lanterns on my table that where on like a metal frame but they could swing. That night I was drawing both lanterns where swinging in unison so I FaceTimed I will call her red (as I don’t wish to identify her by name). While on face time I showed her the lanterns and I stepped away from the table thinking my shading was moving them and the second I did I swear to the almighty lord they stoped dead! Dead centre like they hadn’t even moved. She witnessed this and was like what the ****.
But once again we put it to the back of our minds and fast forward a few days / maybe a week. I used to have a picture of red and her best friend one of them stupid long ones that you get from a photo machine at an arcade, locked behind my intercoms phone. One day we was stood in the living room and i promise no one was near it but this picture came from behind the phone and landed in the middle of the living room floor. We laughed about it at the time and was like oooooo spooky but we was stupid!
So strange things kept happening red hated being in the flat on her own and hated being in my room as I had a built in wardrobe and she would always say she felt uneasy. The strange things never stopped but we always just brushed it off. Until …….
Our son is born now there’s a 2 year gap where my little lad I’ll refer to him as A, the happings never stopped or eased but we would always just pass it off, how ever when A was about 2 he would always talk to him self in the kitchen and say brother, look daddy brother but not a second later he would scream. Any one whos a parent knows there kids sounds and this sound instantly got my back up am talking as a father hearing my son make this noise I was ready to kill, the anger and rage that I felt inside was something I can’t even put into words, my baby boy was terrified of something and fatherly instincts kicked in.
Every morning while at this flat I would wake up with little bumps or marks across my body, but I always thought it was where I slept or how I slept, but red noticed the same time my lad was doing what he was in the kitchen I was waking up with what looked like chain marks around my wrists and arms and sometimes I awoke with scratches not 4 or 5 like a human hand but 3, just 3 linear scratches across my body.
Covid 2.0 come along, we all get locked down now hear I am with a young family so I did my door badge, I got night work as a security guard and red would refuse to sleep with A until I got home she would always say it felt like something / some one was watching her.
Now red had family down, and said family is a medium (at the time I would have laughed at this as I was very much so on the fence). But one night reds auntie was at her mums house and was doing a reading. During this reading she said she become overtaken by an entity she started pulling this horrible smile that my little lad used to do. (I wasn’t there to confirm this). But the next morning red and I and A are out and about in the car just been for hot chocolate when red gets a phone call from her mum.
Are you with T (me) red says yeah why? Her mum says get T and A to mine right now they both need to be saged with a white feather. So at this point I’m like *** off laughing but then I thought **** it I’ll ride the bus to the next stop. I walk into reds mums and her aunt (who I’ve never ever met doesn’t even know my second name) says to me you would have had a little boy, he would have been around 5 now and his birthday is in July.
Truth be told before I moved to Cornwall I had relations with a lady they should have been forbidden and she fell pregnant, but unfortunately lost the baby. How ever she was pulled to one side by a stranger in the street whom said 10th of July he would have been here.
So this lady reds aunt doesn’t know a thing about me but knew this, knew what faces / smirks A used to do and knew about him screaming from the kitchen and climbing up me in panic. She hadn’t seen or heard any of this no one had.
She proceeded to tell me I had a evil entity attached to my back and that’s why i suffer with back pain, this entity was hiding behind the spirit of my unborn and when A seen him or tried to interact with him he would come out from behind my unborn to scare him. He would use A•s fear and trauma as energy to try and make its self stronger as its end goal was me. It was terrorising my son to get to me.
I went white what the actual **** is going on, I spent the next few weeks thinking I was going insane. But things at the flat was getting worse I contacted Carrol and she said go into every room every storage room / cubard every dark space and say if you are not here with love and light then I command you too leave
A was getting more and more anxious in the flat, around this time we had been accepted for a house and one day he was in the hall way, I was getting the hoover out and he kept slamming the door on the cubard shut saying no daddy I thought he was being cute. I was wrong.
As things started to escalate we tried to reach out for help I’ve gone from a sceptic to a full on believer. We went to a witch shop a couple of towns over, the sell crystals candles etc etc. but when we walked in the woman wouldn’t even look at me, I tried to explain my story but A started messing around so I took him out side and this lady said to red no candles or crystals are going to help him with what he’s got she gave red two business cards for 2 white witches.
So let’s fast forward again at this point reds had enough A is unhappy! But we have a new house to move into so we said we would stay in the flat one last night before we go to the new house the next day. Our last night in the flat didn’t last from the second we walked in it felt so cold so unwelcoming just horrible atmosphere. So we packed up and went and slept on the couch in our new house. That was the last time red or A would step foot in that flat.
I had given my notice to my landlord about moving so I was there cleaning with L that’s reds sister and as we are cleaning we are both in separate rooms, she is in the kitchen I’m in the bedroom I hear her scream and then she ran into the room I was cleaning. Turns out this thing was not happy not happy at all. She was cleaning the cubard under the sink and as she tried to close the door she said it felt like something was pushing against it. She let go of it and it slammed shut. I did actually hear it from the bedroom, I told her to calm down it will be ok and we will work together.
I walked into the bathroom now this flats been empty all day I had had a wee when I first got there but other than that, nothing no one had used the bathroom. But when we walked in there was water everywhere sink was soaking wet, shower tray was soaking and the black and glitter tiles where soaked. We just wanted to get the **** done and get out. That night she left and swore she would never go back. Any who
I get reds mum over to sage the flat and she said she hated being in there, and I have 3 friends they are all into the paranormal, and wanted to explore the flat. I allowed them in as they where down on holiday and I’ll call him S is just like me emotionally dead only had two but after he left that flat he got in our friends car, he broke down in full blows tears and said he’s never felt so empty unloved and lonely. Another of our friends said he saw a long thin figure in the living room all in black with no eyes and was not of this world. He said the reason it had no eyes is because the eyes are a portal to the soul and things not of this plain can’t copy the eyes.
Any way let’s move on I left that flat and every time I left I had to say you are not welcome to follow me or attach to me, you are not welcome in my home or around my family you must stay here or go back to where you belong
Me red and A have lived in our new place a couple of years he’s happy no more screaming and running up me, red is comfortable and I haven’t awoke with chain marks since we started living here.
Red has crystals on all entry and exit points, she had the house saged, but on a whole she is happy and content, I am just never allowed to talk about these events infront of her. Last I heard that thing is still at the flat with my little unborn boy and my A•s grandad who did well to protect A.
This is my story that changed me from a sceptical to a firm believer in paranormal entity’s.

Okay, so I’m kind of in the middle of a mental breakdown. In fact, I have been under intense stress for quite some time, and it’s really catching up to me.
As far as my work life, I work a stressful sales and marketing job. I’m about 8 years into sales, and I am definitely getting towards the end of my stamina in being able to do this…which I truly never should have been here, but I just kind of fell into it (I got a BS in psychology in 2016, and wanted to do something with mental health/social work. Everyone my parents age talked me out of it, ie, ‘you won’t make enough money,’ etc.). I’ve decided to go back to school this coming winter to get a MSW, and it’s LONG overdue. I have a career coach who told me she doesn’t know how me, an INFP, has lasted in sales so long, not to mention how I’ve performed so well. But thinking about doing this sales job for another year, let alone the rest of my life, makes me feel nauseous.
As far as personal life, basically, what ISN’T going on? My dog, who was my rock and my best friend, died gruesomely and unexpectedly in January. My car has broken down 3 times in the last 3 months. My grandpa also died late last month, and I haven’t been able to see him in 5 years due to family drama. I’m coming off a really shitty financial year of 2022-23, where I had to quickly quit another stressful sales job, and ended up racking up $10K in credit card debt, while working dead end jobs to try to survive/pay bills (I’m finally almost done paying it off). Essentially, I ended up making almost $100K/year but absolutely hating my life, to only $30K, and still hating my life. Not to mention, I’m 6 years deep into a medical FTM transition, and my closest family still continues to purposefully misgender and disrespect me. To say I’m stressed, and I have been for quite some time, is an understatement. If it weren’t for my amazing girlfriend, idk if I’d have the strength to still be here.
Normally, I’m able compartmentalize both Work and Personal life, but lately they’re bleeding in together…and it’s getting worse. I’m barely getting any sleep, and when I do, I have disturbing nightmares. I physically cannot get out of bed until 8 am, and I’m barely a functioning adult until 11 am or Noon. I have almost zero appetite unless it’s the occasional Taco Bell or McDonald’s splurge, which isn’t good for body, or wallet. My TMJ is so bad that I sometimes can barely move my jaw. My heart rate is consistently about 105-110 BPM when I’m resting. I honestly feel like I could snap on the next person who looks at me funny, which isn’t like me - I’m NOT a confrontational person.
I go to weekly therapy. My therapist told me that I should apply for FMLA. However, part of me feels so bad for doing it, as my boss is so overwhelmed. She also has a shitshow between work and personal life, and I hate to think adding more to her plate, especially with how good she’s been to me. She knows everything that has been going on with me and is very supportive. My therapist said that while he knows how I feel, that I can’t keep going on the way I have.
I have been diligently meditating and working on my emotional regulation since COVID, and I’ve deleted most social media, and it’s definitely helped. But this is a stress load that I need something more. I feel like if I could just have 1-1.5 months of not having to worry about work, and just resting and being able to catch up on personal shit that has been piling up, I can get back to some sort of ‘baseline’ where I can be a functioning adult again. I honestly feel like if I keep going down this path, I could have a stroke, and even that I’m overall shortening my lifespan.
Idk why I’m posting this. Maybe I just need some reassurance that it’s going to be okay, and that I’m not a bad person for taking care of myself. Help??

This is all for filler, please DM me kf you want to help
Hey, 16M living in the UK (from portugual). My name is afonso and my main interests are cars and gaming, I use to be really into computers/comp sci but not so much anymore. Wouldn't mind talk about it at all though.
To he honest, I'm just looking for some fun chats and hopefully to make some friends along the way, I'd prefer F but M is totally fine too, don't be scared to message me I don't bite haha.
I'm open to talk about anything really, as long as you have some decency about it, age doesn't matter to me that much but the closer yours is to mine, the better.
Anyway, let's get to know each other better in DMs, I'd love to hear about your interests and lice in general, or anything to be honest!

The wife and I went in today. First they said the tires weren't in even though we had an appointment and I confirmed the tires had been delivered to the center. The guy at the counter said do you see your tires here while standing in front of about a thousand stacked tires. I thought he was joking and said I don't know how to find them I thought you would lol. The wife is starting to get pissed and the guy walks away.
Another guy walks up and says what seems to be the problem. I figured he was the manager. I told him about my appointment he says you just ordered these you have to wait for them to be shipped in. I chime in I ordered them two weeks ago and have confirmation they have been delivered and my appointment. Turns out he was just looking at today's date on the top left of him computer screen. I know this because he asked me behind the counter to show me what he can see.
Anyway he said he will go check for me. then the first guy walks back up and says you have to set up an appointment if you want service. My wife gets more pissed and Im starting to find this all kind of funny. She decided to go shop and leave me to the sales people. I tell him the other guy is going to look for them. He says Ill go find them.
The other guy comes back and tells me he found the tires then disappeared. The other guy then comes back with a huge attitude and said I told you you have make an appointment if you want service you standing there wont do anything. I tell him the other guy found them. He tells me no he didn't he would have seen them. He then disappears.
Then a customer came in furios they lost his lug nut key. I forget whats its called but he was so angry I just let the sales people deal with this guy. The sales people were saying we will call you if we find it. He was demanding they look for it now because he didn't want to leave without it. This guy was pissed. I stared to feel bad for the tire sales people.
Eventually the angry customer storms out. The guy who found my tires tells me to go park in the spot they pick the car up. So I start to walk towards the door and the other guy comes out and tells me again I need to set up an appointment. I tell him Im bringing my car around right now the other guy found them. He tells me NO he didn't. lol. I ask him to go talk to the other guy and give me a answer if they have my tires or not.
He leaves and comes back 10 minutes later and asks why I haven't moved my car to the service parking. I tell him because you just told me several times you don't have my tires the other guy has told me several times you do have them. I don't know who to belive.
He says you listen to ME I'm the only one who knows whats going on here. This is the same guy who told me three times he did not have the tires and I did not have an appointment. I'm just kind of dumbfounded and move my car.
I ask him about how long and he said were doing it right now so it shouldn't be long... Three hours later I get the call they are finished. I don't know if you have ever spent three hours in a Costco but its not fun.
Anyway for the love of god stay away from the costco tire center.

I’m currently shopping for a Nissan GT-R (2017+), my brother has a 2017 dark blue and I love the newer facelift. There is 2 of them around me for sale and 1 in Washington which is about a 14hr drive. I currently have 50k as down payment, If I can wait until July I’ll have 65k. Cedit score is 787, business owner and currently only have 1 credit card debt of 2k (no big deal), I currently drive a 2014 Lexus GS350 paid off.
All three GTR’s are stock and from Nissan Dealers. Will finance with credit union unless dealer can match or beat interest rates. I just need Opinion on which is the best deal, Where else better to ask then a bunch of GTR owners.
1st car is 2021 $114k with 23k miles, No Accidents, 2 owner, Maintenance is up to date
2nd car is Also 2021 $108k with 25k miles, No Accidents, 1 owner, but was used as a “work Fleet Vehicle” (no wonder its so cheap?)
3rd is in Washington 2018 $98k with 41k miles, no Accidents, 4 owners, maintenance is up to date.
Extra Questions: do you think price will continue to go down, or will it go up because of discontinue of R35?
Thanks! Will post pics when I buy my car.

Hey! This is my first PC build in 10 years, so I'm a little rusty, let me know what you think
This is for both gaming and for 3D editing (using Cinema4D and Octane Renderer, latter means less CPU and more GPU intensive.)

Part type	Part name	Price	Notes/questions
CPU	AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D	£330
Cooler	NZXT Kraken Elite 240 - White	£190	Mounting at the top as reading online this is the best config. Overkill but screen and is white ;)
Motherboard	ASRock B650M Pro RS WiFi	£144	Reading in this sub ASRock are the best brand these days
RAM/Memory	Corsair Vengeance 64 (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-5200 CL40	£158	64GB as I'm doing 3D work. But, is 5200 and CL40 too bad? I went for this RAM also as it meets case clearance for top radiator mounting
Storage	Crucial P3 Plus 4 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive	£243	Is this a good enough drive?
GPU	MSI GAMING X SLIM GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16 GB Video Card	£1007	Are MSI a good GPU brand?

Does this look all okay, other than cooler and PSU being a bit overkill? Is there anything else I need to buy?
Thanks!

It kind of seems like every year we see a period of "Electric Vehicles are DONE!", "Electric Vehicles are not selling!", etc. etc. ad nauseam.
After every year finishes I check the actual numbers when it comes to Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), Conventional Hybrids, Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), etc. etc.
Guess what...
They are always up lol
Yes interest rates are high right now.
Yes although the economy is doing good there is a general feeling amongst regular folks and families that there is still a massive Affordability of life crisis and so they may be holding back from big purchases.
Yes some people are holding back till standards like NACS, apartment/work charging sites, and so forth come into place.
All that being said Electric Vehicles are going to keep increasing and increasing in market share. The GROWTH has slowed down. There is still growth.. Year after year.
Now for the future:

1. Rivian R2, R3, R3X (In particular Rivian R3)
   
2. Chevrolet Bolt EV on the Ultium platform
   
3. Volvo EX30
   

(Rumored Hyundai IONIQ 2, Here and there Tesla Model 2 that is either its own platform and unboxed model and or a simplified Tesla Model 3 or Model Y (No one really knows lol), Rumored Ford Compact Crossover, etc.)
https://www.caranddriver.com/news/g29994375/future-electric-cars-trucks/
These and others are going to lead to a lot more sales and growth going forward.
The technology, engineering, and software are going to keep improving and improving just like they always do.
We will keep seeing a better charging infrastructure in both quality and vastness.
We will keep seeing batteries improve in quality/life/range/weight.
We will continue to see prices improve with scalability.
Frankly all this doomsday and apocalyptic talk and headlines is just noise.

TL;DR: I bought a Certified pre-owned car from the dealership about 1 year ago, Dealer assured me it was in perfect conditions with no prior accidents, but I later discovered issues suggesting prior accidents. In February 2024, found a crack in the metal frame, leading to water leakage. Dealership wouldn’t help, insurance claim denied. Collision specialist confirmed signs of a major accident and advised legal action against the dealership for misrepresentation or fraud.

(Illinois resident) I purchased a 2021 Toyota Certified pre-owned car from a Toyota dealership in January 2023. Despite buying it on a snowy day and conducting a once-over inspection with the sales rep, I didn't notice any major damage. The Carfax was clean as well and the rep assured us that there were no prior accidents. We went through with the sale and I have enjoyed the car over the past year.
Over the past year the car seemed fine, but I did notice some issues with the door spacings on the front passenger side and problems with the trunk door, hinting at potential prior accidents. Not a big deal overall, the car was driving/performing fine.
But in February 2024, while installing a subwoofer, I found a large puddle of water beneath the trunk lining. I took it to the dealership and they discovered a crack in the metal frame above the trunk, under the rear windshield that was causing the leak. After inspecting the vehicle more they determined that this was from an accident, which I have not had with this car. Unfortunately, since the warranty had expired, they couldn't/wouldn’t help me further, so I left.
Next I took it to a collision specialist. They pointed out several signs of a major accident and shoddy repair work, likely done unofficially, which would explain the clean Carfax. They suggested suing the dealership for misrepresentation or fraud, emphasizing that any competent sales rep or mechanic should have noticed the prior damage, especially for a Toyota Certified pre-owned vehicle.
I haven't reached out the dealership yet, but I did find pictures of the car on the date of sale, where you can (vaguely) notice the spacing issues of the front door which generally is a hint of prior damage.

Do I have any legal advantage here?

I feel like something is missing.
I know 99% of it is actually talking to others and getting a sense of their lives and wants and needs, something I currently haven't done because of my low-paying job as a flight attendant. I used to work at Restaurants and felt more connected to the world and society.
Social Media to me feels like.. picking up a Vogue Magazine. It's very limited in scope. I see hot models. I see ads for cologne and clothing. I see fancy cars and photos of travel destinations. That's like 99% of my Instagram right now - Vogue Magazine.
When I walk outside my home, the jobs I can physically see are those shitty ones. Barista, McDonalds, Wal-Mart. Those aren't the jobs to get, those aren't the jobs that will pay you enough to live.
I feel as though the real world, is somehow hiding from me (a direct result of my FA airline job I am certain).
The real world for me, is sitting at a bar having a beer with a microbiologist who is discussing the breakthroughs of addiction as it relates to Ozempic and how they are leading a team of junior researchers to find out why Ozempic and gut science have also shown reductions in non-food-related addictions also.
The real world for me, is having a discussion with the sales guy who deals with rhodium and palladium for pace makers at Boston Scientific, or maybe that QC expert at Bausch & Lomb Contact Lenz division.
Somehow I am not getting the 'right' news, the right stories, the right knowledge as to what is happening behind the scenes. I feel lost often, as though the bottom 90% of the population is now plugged into the matrix and the remaining 10% (where the good jobs and good money are) are now hidden from sight.
With inflation on the rise, like poverty, we are facing difficult times ahead. I am curious as to what areas have growth? What sectors show promise? I see AI but we are still a ways off before it actually moves society forward in a good way, vs a way to enslave and ensnare us.
SO my real question is how do you keep away from social media and get news that is in your field, in your discipline, and also in hot zones for future development? Walking through places like Rochester, New York, Main Street is Dead. Same for Utica, Geneva, Syracuse. Cities all along the upstate railway are rapidly collapsing into chaos. I am just not sure what the solution is for me, besides less social media and perhaps more magazines like Financial papers or Business Weekly.
How do you not get lost in all of this?

Not really sure why I'm asking Reddit cos I don't usually get any replies, but whatever, I can at least vent to myself if not.
I (23M) started dating a girl (19F) in April of 2023. We had a really close connection at work, and I was in a failing relationship that I was scared of leaving due to having nowhere to live. I managed to sort things out and left the girl I was with (and unhappy for the last 6 months due to financial abuse) and stayed with family. She was perfect, I mean I could go on, but basically I saw her as my soul mate. I never said that in any of my other relationships, and so it held a lot of meaning to me.
She eventually went to uni about 120 miles from me, which is quite far for the UK I suppose. It made it hard to see her. That was in September. The distance killed us, and she broke up with me in October briefly, and then got back with her about a week later. We talked through a lot of stuff, and stayed with her until about mid January 2024. I ended up saying some bad things, but she also wouldn't sympathise with me anymore, so she broke up with me again. I had a pretty rough time, but I tried to force myself to get over it by talking to other people to get my mind off of it. I didn't sleep with anyone but I loved the attention, because I was missing that.
I realised around March that I had left my spare key at her parents place, and I knew she would be down for Easter. So I contacted her and said would I be able to pick them up. She agreed, but only if she could speak to me briefly.
So I picked her up and we talked about a lot of stuff, how the relationship failed and what we should have done to make it work. And weirdly, she apologised for everything, however still pretty much blamed it on me. She agreed to me that we should talk again, after I kissed her and confessed I still loved her, and that if it worked through the 7 weeks she would have at uni away, that we could become official again, as she did also love me still. She was down for 4 weeks before she went away again, and I wanted to try as hard as I can.
As her income is awful being a uni student, I paid for all the dates, and I took her out as much as I could between work and a couple of days out and a holiday I had that month. My logic was that if I spend as much money as I possibly could, she would be happy. Which thinking back on it, is a stupid idea, but hey, if it didn't work, then my life still felt like it was over anyway. We had an amazing time, however the arguments we used to have daily were still happening. When it was good, it was really good, but when it was bad, it was really bad.
She wouldn't take blame for anything, always stated I was a victim in every situation. I never raised my voice once at her, I wanted to talk things through and she would rather leave it and forget about it than for me to try and fix the issue so it wouldn't happen again. Just before she went back to uni, which was about a week or 2 ago, we had a big argument. I ended up having a panic attack for about 30 mins and was told to leave the room to calm down, whilst still having a panic attack. By the time I got back into the room, she had fallen asleep. I tried to talk to her, but she kept shouting and shouting, and when she shouts, I get all quiet.
Anyways, I knew it would end from there, and I just felt so shit. I spent £500 in one month on her, and I did spend money on myself for once when I was on holiday. So I ran my bank account completely dry trying to salvage it. She rang me and kept shouting, saying it wouldn't work, but that she loves me, and also would refuse to break up with me because she didn't want to see me hurt. I think in the end, she manipulated me into breaking up with her, which I did. We broke up saying I love you to each other. A part of me knew that when we started speaking again, that it would never work, that I was clinging onto some sort of dream. And that's why maybe what happened following that break up happened.
I ended up talking to a friend of mine, who had also gone through a break up, and we ended up hooking up for a night. I had NEVER done this before, like hookups are completely new to me, and I mean, it was okay. It felt strange cos I had no interest in wanting to date her, and not trying to be rude about it, but I dropped my standards completely with her just to have some sort of affection. I'm now on dating apps just trying to crave attention and affection (which is going horribly) because I'm terrified of being alone. I haven't been single in about 3 years or so, and I can't really function without people around. I get waves of extreme happiness, followed by extreme depression. The happiness is when I'm around people, and the depression is when I'm alone, such as right now.
I'm really confused on what I'm doing. I just feel empty. Or broken. Or lost. I have no idea what to do with myself. Part of me wants to just stop living, and the other part of me wants to move on from everything. I feel guilty when I talk to other people, and I know it's obviously very soon to move on from a relationship, well, a week. But I don't think I ever will, I think I'm just trying to force my way to doing that so I can forget about her quicker. I'm glad that I met her because I wouldn't be where I am today without her and she helped mould my career path, but I wish I never did because it would be so much easier.
If someone understands whatever I'm going on about, I'd appreciate it. I'm just lost, I don't really hang with my friends a lot as they are all working usually, and I have nobody to talk to about it.

Hey everyone! I back again with some more funny shenanigans with our good pals Lerson and Silversmith. Thank you all for the great feedback for the last chapter, it really made my day. I'm excited to hear what you all think about this next one. Hope you all enjoy!
And again a special thanks to SpacePaladin15 for the NoP universe! __________

Memory Transcription Subject: Lerson, Undercover Farsul Date [standardized human time]: October 24, 2136
How did I get here? Just yesterday I was running for my life through the forest on this backwater planet and now I am sitting in the back of a vehicle with a predator, who thinks that I am some kind of hunting beast. Well… what do I do now?
The first part of my plan went off without a hitch. The simple minded predators had not realized I was not one of their slave beasts, so they released me from their holding pens. However, I am now trapped in a car right alongside my new predatory master.
Maybe I could try to take it down. It doesn’t seem particularly dexterous at least compared to the other predators I have seen. It is not looking at me now, so I would have the upper hand, but it is nearly twice my size. I will probably have to hold out for a little bit longer before I make my move.
I am suddenly pulled from my thoughts when the predator in the front seat begins to growl, “Car, can you bring me to the pet store, please?”
‘Pet Store,’ what is that? My translator says that it is a place for the sale of animals. Is it going to sell me already? Maybe I am just being sent to my new prison. My heart races as I watch the vehicle begin to slow down and come to a stop in front of the building. The elderly predator gets out of the vehicle and walks around to the door next to me. Oh no! This isn’t part of the plan. I thought I was finally out of that place, but now I am just about to get locked up again. The door opens.
“Okay bud, we’re gonna get you some things,” it said. Huh. I am not getting sold? The predator grabbed the end of the rope around my neck and beckoned me out of the vehicle. I chose to oblige and we slowly made our way towards the nearby building.
It was a small structure that looked like it was in disrepair. It makes sense that the predators would not upkeep their buildings all they care about is killing and eating. I was surprised to find that they even have buildings to begin with.
The old one pushed the door open, which produced a soft jingle as we walked in. First thing I noticed was the intense smell. It was almost overwhelming with how many different scents there were. Looking around the aisles of the shop were very narrow and the shelves were packed with different items. “Um, so the lady at the shelter suggested that I get food, bowls, a bed, and… I don’t really remember what else. That’s probably fine to begin with, we can always come back later.”
We walked down one of the narrow aisles, which had dozens of bags of ‘kibble.’ My translator says it is “ground meal shaped into pellets, especially for pet food.” That does not sound very appetizing. The predator stops and starts looking through the different options. I also start to look around. The bag nearest to me has an ingredients list. Luckily I opted for the built in visual translator. Scanning the ingredients it contains mostly different grains and other fillers, which is surprising from predator food, but it also lists ‘animal byproducts’ which sounds horrifying. I guess whatever the Terrans do not end up eating gets tossed to the lesser predators.
“Let’s get this one. It says it’s for ‘senior’ dogs. Ha! That’s something we’ve go in common”
Really?! Do I look that old to everyone? By the Tenants, maybe I need to dye my fur after I get out of this mess. We continued going around the store picking up items until we got to the counter near the front.
Speaking to the predator behind the counter my ‘master’ says, “Good afternoon Bobby. How’s everything going?”
The young predator behind the counter responds, “Not too great, Mr. Silversmith.”
“Oh. I spose that was a bad question to ask, sorry.”
“It's okay sir, there is just a lot going on. I’m glad that my parents and I are all fine, being out here in the country, but my brother works in the city and we still don’t know if he’s alright.”
“I’m sorry to hear that. I hope for the best.”
“Thank you. Now what can I do for you?”
“Oh I’m just buying some supplies for old Buddy over here,” he gestures down to me.
The clerk looks over the counter towards me, “Uh… Mr. Silversmith…” The old predator cuts him off, “I know he aint the best lookin’, but can’t say much about myself either, so I don’t need to hear it.”
“Sure… Well… let me ring that all up for you then.”
Spekh! That one has to know, right? Perhaps these predators are not as dense as I thought and the one I got is just really stupid. Well at least that helps my plan, but I will still have to be careful around other Terrans.
The old one finishes paying and we head back down to the vehicle and it drives off. After about [~34 minutes] we reach what I think is the elderly predator's den.
It is at the end of a very long dirt roadway, tucked among the trees, that I see the structure. Just like the pet shop it is a small building made out of simple materials like wood and stone. I suppose the predators really are as primitive as I thought.
The vehicle comes to a halt next to the building and the old one steps out. After he opens my door, I step out of the vehicle as well. I follow him to the entrance of the den, which is a simple wooden door painted bright red. And if I remember correctly that is the color of blood on this planet. So savage!
Upon entering, the interior looks very similar to the outside with wood adorning the walls and floors. Though I was surprised how similar the layout was to the living quarters back at the guild. The room at the entrance looked to be some kind of lounging room with a small couch and rug in the center of the room facing a screen mounted on the opposite wall. To the left of the door was what I could only assume was a kitchen with storage cabinets covering the walls.
The elderly predator returned to the car to retrieve the items it purchased at the ‘pet shop,’ which makes this the best time to do some sleuthing. I made my way past the lounge room into the depths of the den. Past the entrance room was a hallway leading further back. It was adorned with photographs filled with predatory snarls. I did my best to ignore them and worked my way further down the hall.
Up ahead there was a door and upon opening it I found a room which, by the smell of it, must be a lavatory. That really reminded me that I had to go to the bathroom. My cell did not even have a waste pit. I made my way quickly into the room and relieved myself with haste. Once I finished I thought about flushing the ‘evidence,’ but that’s when I heard the front door open again, so I was forced to hurry out of the room.
“Hey Bud! Where did you go?” it growled from the other room. I made my way back to the entrance as quickly as I could manage on all fours. “There you are. So do you like the place?” the predator asked. I did not respond and just looked towards it. “Ha ha, great!” it growled. I did not say anything?
“So I got your food and water bowls over here. Let me go fill them up. You’ve gotta be hungry.”
It walked over to the kitchen with the bowls in hand and filled one with water from the sink. The other bowl, the predator filled with the ‘kibble’ from earlier. Then it placed them both on the floor. It looks like the food situation might not be any better than my previous arrangement at the holding pen.
“Well, I spose I should eat dinner as well.”
It opened the large metal cabinet and began looking through it. I snuck a little closer to get a better look. When I approached I could feel the chill coming off of it, so I could assume that it was some kind of refrigerators unit. Must not be that primitive I suppose. After a bit of scrounging around the refrigerator, the elderly one pulled out a clear plastic container. It was green on the inside. Is it really going to eat rotten flesh!? I guess that is expected of a predator.
As it opened the container I braced my nose for the putrid smell of rotten flesh, but it never came. I watched as the predator poured out leafy greens into a bowl. Huh, a predator is eating plants?
Wait, I do remember that during the Terran’s deceptive talk at Aafa, they had said they were [all-eaters]. I guess that must be true. Watching it eat the greens is making me even hungrier than I was before.
I watched as the elderly predator finished its salad. It brought the bowl and utensils to the sink to begin washing them. I waited in the corner of the kitchen for him to finish and leave. My stomach was killing me and I could only think of the amazing taste of a crisp salad. Finally the predator finished his task and turned away from the sink. It looked towards me and then at the bowls on the floor. “Aren’t you hungry boy? You haven’t touched your food at all… I hope you’re alright. Maybe I need to take you to the vet tomorrow?”
Vet? My translator says that that means ‘animal doctor.’ Even though the average human is pretty oblivious, a doctor will be sure to realize that I’m not really a ‘dog.’ I can not let this Terran take me there. I know what I have to do, but I do not like it. I steel myself as I walk over to the bowl and stare down at its contents. Am I really going to do this? You have to! So, I lower my head and bite down on a mouthful of ‘kibble.’
It… is not that bad? I honestly expected worse.
I suppress the thoughts of the ‘animal byproducts’ in it and swallow. Immediately I wash out my mouth with the water in the second bowl. Then I turn to look at the human who is now snarling at me. I freeze. Did I do something wrong? Did it figure me out?!
“There you go. Ha ha. I was worried for a second there.”
What? Is it happy that I ate? Then why is it snarling at me? Maybe maybe that means that it is happy? These predators are so weird. At least it seems like I have avoided detection once again. Nailed it!
The old predator, having been satisfied, let out a yawn revealing all its sharp teeth… well… most of them were surprisingly quite dull. “Okay bud it's getting late, so I think it's time for me to turn in, but let me get you your bed first,” it said. Reaching into the biggest bag from the pet shop the elderly predator pulled out a round fluffy bowl. It looks similar to beds I saw when working on the Iftali and Sulean homeworld, though this one is a lot smaller. It placed the bed down in the living room next to the couch.
It paused, “Oh wait. I should probably take you outside before turning in for the night. Don’t want a mess in the morning, come on.”
I follow the predator as instructed, wondering what it wants me to do now. It leads me out a side door into a grassy area. “Okay… do your business,” it said.
What? Does it want me to do something? I just look around seeing if there's anything to give me any clues.
“I guess that didn’t work. Go potty.”
What?! Is it commanding me to defecate?! Outside! I guess he does think I am an animal. But there is no way I am doing that especially with it watching me. Why is it watching? Is it some kind of pervert? Grr, Screw the plan!
“Okay… uh… I guess come back in when you’re done,” it says as it turns to walk back to the house.
Thank the Tenants! I wait [a few minutes] and then slip back into the predator’s den. On my return it spots me, “Oh good you’re back!”
It walked over to the side door and locked it. Then the predator shuffled to wall switches and turned off most of the lights. Thankfully it left a singular lamp turned on. It is already bad enough that I am stuck in a predator's den, but being in the dark with a predator would be too much even for me.
“Okay goodnight bud, see you in the morning,” said the old one. Then right as it entered the hall it stopped and looked down at a nearby table, “Good night Ella. Good night Ben. Good night Martha.” Then it walked out of sight.
Who was he talking to? Are there other predators here? I don’t smell anyone else and I think I would have heard them earlier. Spekh! Did I get a crazy one?
Okay craziness aside, I need to eat some real food. I finally stood upright. Ah my back! It was already getting bad enough when I was back home. Hopefully I can get used to this because walking on all fours is killing me right now.
I walk over to the refrigeration unit and slowly open the doors trying to stay quiet. Looking around the inside I am surprised to find so many vegetables. However, I did spot a slab of flesh towards the back, which I did my best to ignore.
Now, I can not just eat anything, it might notice if food is missing. Scrounging around for a [minute] my eyes eventually find a plant in one of the lower drawers. It looks like a big bundle of large leaves. I take it out and pry off one of the ones on the outside. It comes off relatively easily with a crunch. Hopefully this is edible. I bring the leaf to my mouth and bite down. It makes a very satisfying crunch as a do. There really is no distinct taste, but I am so hungry that I don’t even care if it is bland.
I scarfed down the rest of the leaf quickly and then grabbed another and then another. Before I knew it, the bundle was only a third of the original size. So much for being sneaky. Finally satisfied, I returned what remained of the bundle to its proper place and closed the refrigerator doors.
After finishing my raid on the refrigerators, I thought about what the old predator had said earlier. I walked over to the table near the entrance to the hallway. There must be something interesting here. However, there was nothing but a handful of photographs. Looking at them in the dim light I was able to make out the wide snarls that adorned the faces in the photo. I guess It makes more sense now since the snarl is a ‘happy’ expression. It is still very strange to me.
The photo closest to the front had the old predator standing next to a much younger predator, which appeared to be wearing Terran military pelts. Strangely, the young one has very bright orange hair on the top of its head.
Next to that one there was a similar photo, but the old predator looked slightly younger. The other Terran in the photo looked similar to the first. They did share the same bright orange hair, but the enlarged mammaries indicated that this one was a female.
I then spotted another picture including the same female, but this time she was next to a different predator and she was holding a Terran pup, which had the same orange hair. Perhaps the female was the mother of the other one. Most of the other photos appeared to be different combinations of the same four predators: the old one, his offspring, his offspring’s mate, and then their pup.
I moved over to the other side to see if I could find anything more useful. There was a photo that stood out to me. It pictured the old one, but he looked significantly younger even more than the other photos. Standing next to him was a female, which had the same orange hair as the others. Who was this? I had not seen it in any of the other pictures.
I searched around to see if I could find any more with this female in it. Towards the back I saw two pictures next to each other. The one on the left had the female again with the old predator. Laying in a bed she was cradling a newborn pup in her arms. However, the photo on the right was the old one with the pup in its arms. The pup appeared to be a year or two older in this one, but where was the mother? Looking at the older predator I saw the look in his eyes. I know that look. Cerci…
No! They are predators! They are not like us! You know they can not think like us! It's not the same!
Grr, you are tired… just… just go rest. I walk over to the bed. I curl up and try to let sleep take me. __________

So much for being comedic and lighthearted. I promise that the rest of it won't be so depressing, but I wanted to add a little more substance to some of the characters. Thanks again for reading! Feel free to leave any feedback or suggestions, I really appreciate it.

So a local neighbor has had this blue Mustang GT in their driveway ever since I was in high school. (About 10 years ago) I happened to always walk/drive by it and thought “was this abandoned?” Luckily I decided after 10 years to walk into this random driveway to look at this car. A “for sale” sign was on the back window. I called and messaged them about the their mustang.
Now this might sound too good to be true but hear me out. The car was for his nephew, but the nephew was too tall (6’4) Original owner No accidents 70-80,000 miles (from his memory) Doesn’t run because of “spark plugs, the hose and connection to the battery, flat tires and clear coat off the roof” Other than that, nothing missing, everything is OG.
The offer is $2,000, however what do I look for when I go take a look on these style mustang? Common problems? What are the solution? Should I ask lower?
TLDR: thinking about buying this mustang GT 99,00,01 (not sure which one)all original parts, sitting in this driveway. Doesn’t run because of “spark plugs, hose and connection to the battery”. It’s going for a good price, I want to fix it up. First things to fix? What are the best product for the fix? Do I ask for a lower price? Possible Money pit ($8,000 or more)?
Thank you in advance, I’m new to older mustang, so bear with me.

Heya, I just wanted to ask if anyone knows why the quotes I'm getting on car insurance could be so ridiculously high relative to the value of the vehicle I've got?
Information: Age: 18 Country: UK Area: South Lincolnshire in a small Hamlet of roughly 250 residents Vehicle: 1994 Rover Metro 1.1 (carbed) GTa 5spd manual Vehicle status: currently lacks MoT and is SORN but she should be up and running within the next week and MoT'd within the next 2-3 weeks
Hopefully within the next 6 months or so I'll be passing my driving test and can finally get out and about and leave this god forsaken county and as such I've been looking at insurance policys for when I pass to see how much it'll cost me a month (my learners insurance is currently £38 a month and covers me [the policy holder and vehicle owner] along with my step dad) but I've noticed I'm struggling to find quotes that are below £9,800 a year id be ok with £2,800 with no black box (due to the conditions of the roads near me I regularly have to change sides of the road and brake sharply to avoid large potholes and as such I feel a black box with telemetry would say I'm an unsafe driver and put my premiums up). Another issue with this is that I plan on moving to Gravesend next year for an apprenticeship and will therefore need a car to get around and if I can't afford to insure the one I've got i have no idea what I'm gonna do transport wise especially since this apprenticeship may require me to leave very early in the morning and travel to various job sites. Just wondered if anyone knows why I'm being given such ridiculous quotes and wether there's anything I can do to get cheaper quotes or wether anyone has any recommendations for cheap insurance companies for young drivers. I'm more than happy to answer any extra questions if anyone has any! :)

Hey guys looking to purchase a preasure washer. It will mainly be used to wash my car.
I don't want to spend to much so I was looking at the following.
RYOBI 1800 PSI 1.2 GPM Cold Water Electric Pressure Washer
Or
Kobalt 1700 PSI 1.2-gal/min Corded Electric Pressure Washer
Is there a big difference between them ? The kobalt is $99.99 as it's on sale.
I would purchase a new gun , hoose , foam cannon , orifice and nozzle set.
If you guys have any suggestions for the assecories I would appreciate the info.
Would this provide me with a gold cleaning experience or would there be something else you guys would suggest ?
Thanks

Hello everyone,
Not sure if this is the right channel but would love to get some advice!
I’m researching and finally looking to finance a used car. Looking for potentially a Toyota Camry (2011-2017).
I’m very new to the car market and I’m afraid to get scammed from some of the sales people.
Few questions I have: 1. When talking to sales person, what are some key things I should ask before going for a test drive? 2. I heard that dealerships turn you away if you don’t finance with them? I have good credit score so I’m trying to get the lowest interest rates 3. If I do go and see the car, what are some things to look out for?
Any advice would be greatly be appreciated!

I love books from European countries (usually not the uk) which are maybe kinda cliche and predictable but the romance is just chefs kiss. They aren't usually very well known but I get obsessed with them because there's just something about the characters or romance that hits different.
Examples of these are the Ruby Red trilogy by Kerstin Geir, the Tearsmith by Erin Doom and Save Me by Mona Kasten (Maxton Hall series) idk if the english translation for this last one has been released yet but i read it in italian bc it has been translated.
All of these were best sellers in italy, (saw them on displays and bokk shops etc, not sure about how they did in sales or statistically). Another one I found in 2013/2014 at a library in italy was The Summer I Turned Pretty which I loved but was ofc translated into Italian from English.
For some reason I'm not a big fan of other super popular romances, I only like Emily Henry and a few others but not the best sellers such as Colleen Hoover, Zodiac Academy, Ali Hazelwood etc
Thank you :)

Overall, a detailed web page audit using SEMrush can greatly contribute to the success and performance of a website.

Preparing for the Audit

Defining the audit objectives

When defining the audit objectives, it is important to consider the specific goals and targets that need to be achieved. The audit objectives serve as a roadmap for the entire auditing process, providing a clear direction and focus. In the case of optimizing every web page with a detailed audit using SEMrush, the primary objective is to identify areas of improvement and implement strategies that can enhance the overall performance and visibility of the website. By conducting a comprehensive audit, businesses can gain valuable insights into their website's strengths and weaknesses, allowing them to make informed decisions and take necessary actions to optimize their online presence. Whether it's improving website speed, enhancing user experience, or optimizing content for search engines, the audit objectives play a crucial role in guiding the optimization process and ensuring the desired outcomes are achieved.

Identifying key performance indicators

Key performance indicators (KPIs) play a crucial role in measuring the success of a website's performance. By identifying and tracking specific metrics, website owners can gain valuable insights into how well their web pages are performing and identify areas for improvement. These KPIs can include metrics such as page load time, bounce rate, conversion rate, and organic search traffic. By analyzing these indicators, website owners can make informed decisions on how to optimize their web pages for better performance and user experience. In this article, we will explore how to conduct a detailed audit using SEMrush to identify key performance indicators and optimize every web page accordingly.

Gathering necessary data and tools

To optimize every web page with a detailed audit using SEMrush, the first step is gathering necessary data and tools. This crucial stage involves identifying key metrics, such as organic traffic, backlinks, and keyword rankings, to assess the current performance of the website. Additionally, it is essential to ensure that the necessary tools, such as SEMrush's Site Audit feature, are readily available to conduct a comprehensive analysis. By collecting relevant data and equipping oneself with the right tools, website owners can gain valuable insights and make informed decisions to enhance their web pages' optimization.

Technical Analysis

Checking for crawlability and indexability

When it comes to checking for crawlability and indexability of a web page, there are several important factors to consider. One of these factors is the logo design. The logo design plays a crucial role in creating a strong brand identity and attracting visitors to the website. It is important to ensure that the logo is properly optimized for search engines and is easily crawlable and indexable. By following best practices for logo design, such as using descriptive alt text and optimizing the file size, webmasters can improve the crawlability and indexability of their web pages.

Analyzing page load speed

Analyzing page load speed is crucial for optimizing the performance of a website. It directly impacts user experience and can significantly affect search engine rankings. When it comes to making money with a home security company, ensuring a fast page load speed is even more important. Slow-loading pages can lead to frustrated visitors who may abandon the site and seek services from competitors. By conducting a detailed audit using SEMrush, webmasters can identify and address any issues that may be slowing down their web pages. This includes optimizing images, minifying code, and leveraging browser caching. Implementing these optimizations can not only improve page load speed but also increase the chances of attracting and retaining potential customers.

Reviewing URL structure and redirects

Reviewing URL structure and redirects is an essential step in optimizing every web page. It helps ensure that your website is organized and that visitors can easily navigate through your content. One important aspect to consider is the mobile-friendliness of your site, as more and more people are accessing the internet through their smartphones. Additionally, it is crucial to review and optimize the redirects on your website to ensure a seamless user experience. When it comes to optimizing your web page for search engines, paying attention to the URL structure and redirects is key.

On-Page Optimization

Optimizing meta tags and descriptions

When it comes to optimizing meta tags and descriptions, one important aspect to consider is the use of premium WordPress themes. These themes offer a range of benefits, including enhanced design options, improved functionality, and better performance. By utilizing premium WordPress themes, website owners can ensure that their meta tags and descriptions are not only visually appealing but also optimized for search engines. With the ability to customize meta tags and descriptions, website owners can incorporate relevant keywords and create compelling descriptions that entice users to click through to their website. Additionally, premium WordPress themes often come with built-in SEO features, making it easier to optimize meta tags and descriptions without the need for additional plugins or tools. Overall, optimizing meta tags and descriptions with premium WordPress themes is an effective strategy for improving search engine visibility and driving more organic traffic to a website.

Improving keyword usage and density

Improving keyword usage and density is crucial for optimizing web pages. One important aspect of this optimization process is ensuring that the keyword, in this case, Wix, is used effectively throughout the content. By incorporating the keyword naturally and strategically, it helps search engines understand the relevance of the webpage to the user's search query. Additionally, using the keyword in headings, subheadings, and meta tags can further enhance its visibility. To achieve optimal keyword density, it is important to strike a balance between using the keyword enough to rank well in search results, but not overusing it to the point of keyword stuffing. By following these best practices, website owners can improve their web page's visibility and attract more organic traffic.

Enhancing content readability and structure

Enhancing content readability and structure is crucial for optimizing web pages. By following best practices, such as using clear headings, organizing content into paragraphs, and incorporating bullet points, you can improve the overall user experience. Additionally, utilizing appropriate font styles, sizes, and colors can enhance readability. Another important aspect is the use of hyperlinks, which can provide additional information and resources. For example, if you are interested in learning how to start a bar supply business, you can find valuable insights and tips in our comprehensive guide.

Off-Page Factors

Assessing backlink profile

Assessing the backlink profile of a website is a crucial step in optimizing its overall performance. By examining the quality and quantity of backlinks pointing to a site, webmasters can gain valuable insights into its authority and relevance in the online landscape. One important aspect of backlink assessment is analyzing the anchor text used in the links. In the case of a staffing company logo, it is essential to ensure that the logo is properly linked and associated with relevant keywords. By doing so, the website can enhance its visibility and credibility, thereby attracting more potential clients and improving its overall online presence.

Monitoring social signals

Monitoring social signals is an essential aspect of optimizing every web page. By keeping track of social signals such as likes, shares, and comments, website owners can gain valuable insights into the performance and popularity of their content. Additionally, monitoring social signals allows businesses to understand how their target audience is engaging with their web pages and identify areas for improvement. This information can be particularly valuable for individuals who are advancing in their careers, as it provides a clear indication of the impact and reach of their online presence. By leveraging tools like SEMrush, professionals can conduct a detailed audit of their web pages, analyze social signals, and make data-driven decisions to optimize their content and enhance their career prospects.

Analyzing online reputation

Analyzing online reputation is an important aspect of optimizing every web page. It allows businesses to understand how their brand is perceived by the online community and identify areas for improvement. One key factor to consider is the design of a website. A stand out car website design can make a significant impact on the reputation of a business. By incorporating visually appealing elements and user-friendly navigation, a website can attract more visitors and enhance the overall user experience. Additionally, optimizing the website for search engines can increase its visibility and credibility, further improving the online reputation of the business.

Conclusion

Key takeaways from the web page audit

The web page audit conducted using SEMrush provides valuable insights for optimizing every web page.

With the help of SEMrush, website owners can optimize their web pages and drive more organic traffic to their sites.

Next steps for optimizing web pages

After completing a detailed audit using SEMrush, the next steps for optimizing web pages involve implementing the necessary changes. One important aspect to consider is healthcare staffing agency. By focusing on this keyword, website owners can attract more relevant traffic and improve their overall search engine rankings. To optimize web pages for healthcare staffing agency, it is crucial to create high-quality content that addresses the needs and challenges of the target audience. Additionally, incorporating relevant keywords in the meta tags, headings, and body text can further enhance the page's visibility. By conducting thorough keyword research and regularly monitoring the performance of the optimized pages, website owners can ensure that their web pages are consistently delivering value to users and ranking well in search engine results.

Importance of regular audits for ongoing optimization

Regular audits are an essential part of ongoing optimization for any website. They help identify areas that need improvement and ensure that the website is performing at its best. One important aspect of regular audits is the ability to detect signs that indicate the need for optimization. One such sign is when you notice that your website's design is not visually appealing or lacks professional graphics. In such cases, using a tool like Canva can be a game-changer. Canva provides a user-friendly interface and a wide range of design templates that can help enhance the visual appeal of your web pages. By using Canva, you can create stunning graphics and images that will captivate your audience and improve the overall user experience.

When identifying high-value keywords, there are several factors to consider. One important factor is the relevance of the keyword to your target audience. It is crucial to choose keywords that align with the products or services you offer. Another factor to consider is the search volume of the keyword. High search volume indicates a higher potential for attracting traffic to your website. Additionally, analyzing the competition level for the keyword is essential. Keywords with low competition are more likely to rank higher in search engine results. Lastly, it is important to consider the intent behind the keyword. Understanding the user's intent can help you create content that meets their needs and drives conversions. When it comes to home security services, these factors become even more critical.
