  1. Glad this is now an actual info feed, not a late night conversation about nothing. Good to see the stage props gone, and specific answers. This is great, please avoid the older style conversations. Even as an SEO they were duller than needed and very very vague and watery. We are all busy, these really help. But the confusion re SEO and JS has to be clarified more precisely as this video has done. Ever green too was very well explained. This term gets muggled all the time.
