After a wonderful SEO expert finally had a good look at the site, he has figured out why there is little traffic. In a nutshell, there is good content on the site, but it must be niched down, and the posts need to be merged to avoid duplicate content, and create long-form content with H2 long-tail keywords (mending broken links) and basically giving it a good spring-clean, after years of writing content.
This will take a few weeks, but the site will then read better and be more helpful, and can finally stop tinkering with it, and just keep it updated. To leave a nice legacy to help, from what began as a hobby and now is overwhelming.
So this is a positive thing, as the end result should be good!
But on trying to edit the site while it is ‘live’, it is not working. It’s going to be a complete mess, until it’s all chopped and changed and merged (and some parts deleted). And all the posts made longer but less of them.
So sorry that the site will be down for a few weeks. But don’t worry, as the end result will be far better, and hopefully be up and published as soon as possible, when all the posts are finished.
Come back soon! Should all be done by end of June 2026.
