I experimented with https://apextraffic.io/ to boost website traffic for my business. While initially enticed by the promise of increased visibility, the results were mixed. Yes, there was a surge in traffic, but the lack of genuine engagement became apparent. Ethically, I found it questionable, and it negatively impacted the accuracy of my analytics. Shifting focus to organic strategies proved more sustainable and reliable. Authentic engagement matters, and relying on bot-generated traffic can have long-term repercussions. It's crucial to prioritize ethical growth strategies that align with building a genuine audience and fostering trust. Share your experiences; let's navigate this together!

Got new cool project for work

I'm a manager involved with marketing and merchandising for a wine and spirits distributor.

My actual job is basically babysitting VP's and making their madman ramblings of marketing campaigns actually make some kind of sense. I have to speak to them almost literally like children.

I get some really awesome perks though, the supplier (alcohol brands/companies) have deep pockets and love to take us for nights out. Most recently Barcardi put a few us up in a hotel, we ate at Hell's Kitchen, and drank the night away on their dime.

Just kidding, I'm a technician for a pharma company. I get to play with a bunch of big cool machines (when they're not broken down) and mess around a load of chemicals, but mainly a lot of scrubbing cleanrooms and labs.

I'm a qualified dentist. Unfortunately, my degree isn't recognised in the place I'm currently living in, so I'm working as a dental assistant/nurse until I can get that sorted out.

I work as a programmer. I used to work for a company and was on a team. For the most part, it was an interesting experience working independently. Over time, I realized that I like working for myself and building my own applications. I do industrial applications and I really enjoy working when things are running smoothly. Only recently I realized that I can simplify this process with the service https://www.makini.io/integrations/eclipse which contains many integrations at once. When I started using it, I realized that I was saving a lot of time by not having to spend it searching for all the integrations individually. So lately I've been loving my work more thanks to this service.
