Outrank - pay to list launchboard - is it worth it? (math incl)

!! The article is about the launch listing platform, not the SEO tool.

StartupBase has a feature called Outrank. Paste a URL, pay $15 or more, and your rank on the leaderboard is the total youve ever paid. Top 8 hold the homepage, and this has gone mini-viral last week.

Credit where due, the copy is the most honest ive read on a launch site: "pay what you want, earn a DR 72 dofollow backlink."

How adding fifty words to category pages improved our search traffic.

For a time our template directory pages were just a grid of images with titles and download buttons. We thought users just wanted to see the templates away so we kept the design as simple as possible.

The issue was that search engines had no text to read to figure out what the page was really about. We were appearing on the page for our main keywords and our organic traffic stayed the same for six months.

We stopped making templates for a week and went back to update our top twenty category pages. We added a three-sentence introduction at the top of each page that explained exactly what the templates were for and who should use them.

We also added a frequently asked questions section at the bottom to answer common technical questions. In than forty days those specific category pages had a forty-five percent rise in organic search visits.

If ChatGPT can write ads, do I still need a media buyer? 🤔

I ve been in the growth seat at an AI ad platform (still in stealth ), and I keep running into the same question:

With tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and PMax...

Is it still worth hiring media buyers or creative teams for ad campaigns?

How do you turn technical skill into business value?

One thing I think engineers learn later than they should: Being technically strong is not the same as being valuable to the business. You can build APIs, design databases, improve architecture, and write clean code. But eventually someone has to connect that work to: - revenue, - cost, - risk, - speed, - reliability, - or customer experience. I ve been thinking more about this lately because writing the code is becoming less of the differentiator. The harder skill is understanding why the thing should be built, what tradeoff you re making, and what outcome the business actually cares about. For engineers here: What helped you get better at connecting technical decisions to business impact?

Formatted old laptop by mistake—best free tool to get 300GB of photos back?

Hey guys, hoping to get a bit of advice here. I formatted my old 10-year-old Acer laptop (Windows 10, HDD) and realized too late that I forgot to back up around 300GB of photos and videos.

I did a scan with Disk Drill just to check, and luckily all the files are still intact. But I can't afford the Pro version to actually recover them. I know people usually recommend PhotoRec, but is there anything a bit more user-friendly that is completely free for this much data? Thanks in advance!
