Well the Google March core update is almost over and my travel blog, that I have worked so hard on has almost disappeared from search. Honestly, I’m devastated. It feels very unfair, but hopefully I can keep inspiring you to travel through social media

A few years ago I traveled to Peru and wrote the first guide for Huchuy Picchu, which was a newly opened hike at that time.
My blog post ranked
#1
on Google for years, which makes sense, because I did the hike myself and other Peru websites

Unpopular opinion- I often see creators doing posts/ stories without disclosing it is paid, sponsored, or gifted. As a creator, I know what it is, but most consumers won’t besides the fact it’s technically illegal to not disclose it. If you have been paid or gifted… disclose it.

For me, I don’t want to go with you if you want to check a bag. I’m not waiting for you at the carousel 🤣. When I bring my mom with me, I tell her she can only come if she checks a bag. Therefore she went out and bought a travel backpack and a new carryon

Upon checking some larger reputable travel sites, I’ve noticed that most sites have gone down in this update. It’s sad to see in the travel space in general. I’ve also noticed Rick Steve’s travel forums have gone up. So travel has 3 forums to battle.

Yikes. I hope my travel site didn’t fall into that. I don’t have Spain lol. I appreciate your honesty. I think every site can have some “unhelpful” info. I think keyword researching tools can be a bit to blame for that, or looking at what was ranking and making sure to cover it.

Zaanse Schans was one of the most touristy places that I actually loved. Getting to climb to the top of these wooden windmills, watching clogs be made, and seeing sheep 🐑 -made all the crowds not so bad.
