> SEO Optimized Out Of The Box
To me this is a bug, not a feature. Google is so broken now that I assume any website in their first page of results is likely worthless.

- (Basic) meta tags
- Alt attributes
- Mobile friendly content (always required for a blog)
- Loading speed, optimised images etc.
- No JS rendered content
I honestly love https://mataroa.blog it ended my paralysis for searching a blog platform, and every page is bog standard HTML. It accepts Markdown, plus it has its own anonymous analytics, so it's nice.
On the other hand, everyone has different needs, and I wish Banner blog the best of luck!
- mataroa.blog - My favorite. Pretty minimal, but well thought out.
- smol.pub - Another favorite of mine, but a little too minimalistic for me.
- prose.sh - A part of pico.sh ecosystem. Very interesting, but I started with mataroa when they started, so I didn't migrate.
- bear.blog - A more comprehensive package, a bit too heavy for my taste.
Again, good luck. We need more small web. Not less!
Although I can see why you may do that, it also does discount things that are relevant
That is, instead of going for search engines, go for open social. It’s obviously a new and relatively unpopular ecosystem, but makes much more sense than this SEO stuff IMO.
Wordpress have rolled out their AP support and it seems to be working well so far. I just “replied” to a blog post on mastodon today without even realising it was from a blog.
The sentiment behind this is more about making the posts more readable to bots as opposed to trying to game the system
You sound like those guys who don't go to the gym because they're afraid of becoming huge and muscular. Don't worry, it won't happen by accident.
