Gutted to have missed today’s Manchester Marathon due to injury. Went down there to watch today. Brilliant inspiration and atmosphere. From experience, running a marathon is no easy feat. Entered for next year.
Thanks for the mention @johnmu.com and also for the heads up @lilyray.nyc
Yesterday I got news I won’t be able to run my 5th marathon in Manchester in April due to an injury which won’t be healed in time. Today I got news of 92% and Distinction for my latest assignment in my MSc Computer Science with Data Science studies. That’s life. Down one day, up the next. Onward 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️

Saying "I don't know" gets you further overall than the few times you can skate by while faking it & making something up. The self-confidence to so that you don't know (and then working to figure out more) is a super-power.

After accidentally announcing this a couple of days earlier than planned... suppose I'd better share this here too!
The brilliant @dawnieando.bsky.social is speaking at the 'Comeback' Optmisey #SEO event on 23rd April.

I appreciate all the women in my life and industry every day. Not just today. You should too. That’s all.
The best SEO article I've read this year. Please read and share with anyone who will benefit.
Dawn Anderson sensibly debunks & demystifies the biggest LLM optimisation myths (chunking, information gain, llms.txt).
A timely reminder to keep that critical thinking hat on.
If you're looking into buying GEO / AEO services, read this first.
Lots of misinformation still flying around our SEO space so I dug into some of the possible causes and the current category conflicts and wrote them up following my presentation at Women in Technical SEO.

Honoured to be delivering the SEO Keynote at SMX Advanced in Boston.
I can now share that I have been commissioned by a publishing house to write a book on AI Search Optimisation. Publication is due later this year. Very honoured to have been approached by the publishers to be an author. Many emerging myths will be debated and possibly debunked in the book for sure.
Great for BS’ing 🤣🤣

Nice while it lasted. Chucking it down again today in Manchester.

Such amazing vibes at #WTFest yesterday. It was my first Women in Technical SEO event and it most certainly won’t be my last. What an effervesent community. Such enthusiasm and energy. Great to present in the session with Aleyda Solís with excellent MC from Hannah Smith ❤️❤️❤️
Enjoyed speaking at #WTSFest today on some of the debatable terminology flying around search at the moment. Sharing my deck. speakerdeck.com/dawnieando/d...

MSc Computer Science with Data Science Assignment 7 of 10 results are in. This one was data visualisation and I got another distinction. Really enjoyed this module. Tableau is definitely amongst my new favourite tools. Only 3 modules and a dissertation remains. Hopefully completed by end of October
Won my age category again in our Harriers Road Running Championship
