Hello, everyone!
I have decided to make some changes to my website's menu. There were too many buttons so I wanted to delete them and get things more organized.

Hello, dear affiliates!
Today I want to address a question that is going on around my head for quite some time.
My health and fitness website isn't doing that great
What a great post and I have no doubt that it is much harder with some niches. I am finding the same but let's take a step back and think about our brand for our sec.
Google is key, there is no doubt about that but its a bit like going to a so called "platform website builder" and they go bust and so does your website.
At least here we have the opportunity to build a brand and use multiple platforms. Google will change and we can't control it so what can we focus on well everything from bing, to youtube so social media.
Audio and video are still key.
If we build our brand and then our content even if google is not over keen on our niche we can find a way. We can build authority even if we have to work harder than anyone else.
To quote dirty dancing "nobody puts baby in the corner"
If we are not the market let's create it.
Just my thoughts, there is always something we can do about it! Good luck, Phil
Hey Natalie,
As Simone has already let you know, unless you are a professional in the field of health and/or fitness news, those sites no longer rank,
This all stemmed from a lawsuit Google lost. See screen print #1 below... I had to search using DuckDuckgo's search engine as Google has buried this information.
Also...
Check out screen print #2, as there are two posts shared there that may provide you with some insight as to what you can do... if anything.
Hope you find this helpful.
Thank you a million, Trish, this was really helpful.
It took me some time to go through and process the info, and I'll try to make some adjustments according to recommendations.
At the same time, I know there are Google Sites that promote the same products as I do.
These sites are on the first page of Google, and in essence, they aren't better than mine, which is quite discouraging.
Hey Natalie,
If you share medical information because of something you have experienced first hand, Google will rank those post high still.
Thankfully, months before Google took the steps detailed above, I exported all posts and pages from my health website and imported those to my personal blog and shut down my health site.
Having more sites than I could focus on at one time is NOT a good idea... and I finally GOT that message digested, and have moved forward.
On my personal blog, I have indeed been sharing health experiences with my reader, as it is my goal to help save others from making similar or the same mistakes that I have made... or better... to share news regarding pain relief that works wonders... or medical treatments the average GP won't / doesn't share with their patients that saves major surgery.
Hi, Trish,
Thank you for sharing your experience, and I believe you made the right decisions.
I have started this blog in March 2019 - the time when Google medical update was already in place.
I wasn't even aware of it and this is my total responsibility for the results I got today.
Hey I am interested know solution to your situation, because am just getting started and want to learn from your experience hope you do not mind. Thank you, I am Lula.
Natalia, I am reading at this moment why that's happening.
Google recently change its YMYL (your money or your life) and EAT ( expertise, authoritativeness, trustworthiness) update in 2018.
You can read about it on Google and why it is difficult to rank high at the moment
You're right.
I have come to realise that no matter what we can say, we absolutely need backlinks.
I've recently seen new sites(about 10 months) have a domain authority of 7 and rank one page one easily now.
So, it's all about backlinks
I know but I am thinking differently as well. I am a Nurse Practitioner and I should start approaching that from that stance

Hello, everyone!
I'm updating my older posts but after hitting the Update button, the date of publishing remains the same.
Is there any way I can make the dates up
Hey Natalia,
Here's a video to show you how: Unpublish Post, Make Changes to Date and Time You only want to be changing the dates in your older posts after you have added a sufficient amount of NEW information and/or updated the old information, else you would only be trying to "game" the search engines, which "COULD" work against you.
The following article may help you make your decision: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/change-article-dates-seo/381114/
Hope you find this helpful.
Go to Posts > All Posts and hover your mouse over the title of the post you want to change the date on. Use Quick Edit to make the changes without opening the actual post.
Hi Natalie,
Top right-hand corner by the update button, you have the option to change the date.
Just go back into the post if you want, click on edit tab next to the date, change the date, and then update.

I would go with what Abie & AJ have shared. They are very good trainings.
