Organic 28d
573
+3.2% vs 555
Data-quality flag, read this first. This week's US rank pull (total 24,
top-10 2, striking 12, every keyword and position) is identical to the 2026-08-28 pull,
keyword for keyword. That could be a genuine no-change week, or a cached API response. The
five pieces shipped 2026-08-30 (commits 8f15f43, 286d180,
ce00483) had only five days to be crawled by this window's end, which is
plausibly too soon on its own. Treat every rank figure below as unconfirmed until a fresh
pull shows movement in either direction.
Backlinks and referring domains moved down, but the dofollow share moved up. Backlinks: 134, down from 144. Referring domains: 52, down from 55. Both clear the plus-or-minus-5 threshold.
Most likely cause: tradingview.com's counted anchors dropped from 68 to 59, and
newlyregddomains.com dropped from 8 to 6. Both domains are entirely nofollow.
ictbot.net (1 dofollow link) dropped off the list. Two new domains arrived:
netkly.com (1 dofollow, clean) and fashionclothingnews.com (1 dofollow, spam score 70). Net
effect: dofollow pages rose from 40 to 41, and nofollow pages fell from 87 to 76. That is a
shrinking nofollow denominator, not new dofollow authority. Dofollow share: 35%, up
from 31.5%. Read this as the profile losing junk links, not as new link equity
earned.
Nothing else clears threshold this week. Organic 28d sessions: 573, up 3.2% from 555, under the 8% reporting bar. Organic 7d: 132, down from 159 the prior week, one data point read as noise, not a trend. Ranked keywords, top-10 count and striking count are unchanged at 24, 2 and 12, see the data-quality flag above for why that number itself is suspect this week. AI sessions: 10 in 28 days, down from 11, still flat and still too small a base to read as visibility. Rybbit AI sessions are a lower bound, never a citation count.
Funnel, readable window only. Purchase Journey had 245 new entrants
at / this week: 111 reached /pricing, 17 reached
/checkout, 4 completed at /welcome. End-to-end this week: 1.6%
(4 of 245). The /checkout to /welcome step had only 17 entrants this
week, below the 30-entrant floor, so the cumulative 17.5% (106 of 605 all time) is the only
trustworthy number for that step. Indicators to Purchase had 173 new entrants at
/indicators, ending at 2 completions, 1.2% end-to-end.
The five shipped pieces show no rank movement yet, but the pull itself is suspect. One data point cannot separate too soon from a stale pull. Do not report next week's number as a win or a miss without checking this first.
The TTrades and three-prop-firm reciprocal asks have now appeared in every
weekly brief since 2026-08-10 (10, 16, 23, 29 and again this week) with zero change
in link-targets.md. Status is still "Not started," last touched is still "-" on
all five rows. Five weeks of the same task-list ask producing nothing means the ask is not
landing through this channel. Repeating it a sixth time unchanged would not fix that, see
Backlinks below for the change in approach.
Update, 7 Sep: the owner acted on the escalation. TTrades — the
owner reached out directly and is awaiting a reply; treat as in-progress, not a fresh ask,
next week. The three prop firms (Tradeify, Apex Trader Funding, Lucid Trading) — the
owner confirmed prop firms don't do backlink exchanges. Scrapped from the Tier 1 target list
rather than re-recommended again. link-targets.md updated.
Disavow submission is now overdue by more than two weeks. GSC access
unblocked 2026-08-23, and the 2026-08-29 brief already flagged one week of inaction. It is
now 2026-09-06 and disavow-2026-08-23.txt still has not been submitted. It also
needs an update first: two spammy domains first seen after the file was compiled,
uncledspizza.com (2026-08-26, spam 60) and fashionclothingnews.com
(2026-09-01, spam 70), are not in it.
Update, 7 Sep: the frozen-prompt rescan ran, and found nothing moved. All six tracked gaps (G-001–G-006) still show 0/4 engines recommending or citing Toodegrees, unchanged since the 24 Aug baseline. See Ship this week below for the number and the reclassification watch this sets up for October.
Add uncledspizza.com and fashionclothingnews.com to the file,
then submit it in Search Console. Done: file uploaded, confirmation visible in GSC, TODO
item 6 closed.
Owner sent the TTrades ask directly — awaiting reply. Owner confirmed the three prop firms don't do backlink exchanges; scrapped from Tier 1 rather than re-asked.
Workflow 50, step 8. Ran via DataForSEO Prompt Explorer across all 9 active prompts x 4
engines ($1.32 spend). All six gap-register rows (G-001–G-006) still show 0/4
recommended, 0/4 cited — none of the shipped content (26 Aug–30 Aug) has
moved anything yet. cycles_unmoved is now 1 on every row. This was each row's
first rescan, so none hit the reclassify-at-2 trigger, but all six moved in lockstep: if
October's rescan is also flat, every row becomes a reclassification candidate at once. Full
detail in clients/toodegrees/reports/2026-09-07-citation-rescan.md.
TODO item 7. Check git log --oneline -10 -- src/app/lib/indicator-meta.ts
first per T9 before proposing any fix from what it turns up. Done: a list of query/page
pairs added to TODO, or confirmation none are new.
Not a content task, a note to whoever runs the weekly job to check the DataForSEO response timestamp, since this week's result is identical to last week's down to keyword volumes.
Referring domains: 52, down from 55. Backlinks: 134, down from 144. Dofollow share: 35%, up from 31.5%. See "What moved" above for why the raw counts and the dofollow share move in opposite directions this week.

7 of these 15 carry a spam score of 30 or higher. All are single-link, low-value domains that arrived on their own. None needs individual action beyond the disavow file.
Gained this week: netkly.com (clean, dofollow) and
fashionclothingnews.com (spam 70, dofollow). Neither matches a tracked partner in
link-targets.md, so nothing there gets marked Live. fashionclothingnews.com is
a disavow candidate, not a win, and is added to the ship-this-week disavow update above.
Lost this week: ictbot.net (1 dofollow link).
Update, 7 Sep: confirmed live — stat-map.com (run by the
collaborator behind the Statistical Mapping tools) now lists Toodegrees in its "Trusted By"
row, linking to toodegrees.trade with no nofollow. This is Tier 1
partner #5 of 14 now linking back, up from 4. It has not reached this week's DataForSEO pull
yet (checked, not present), so the backlink count above will show it next snapshot, not this
one. link-targets.md updated to Live under "StatMap" — this was
previously tracked as two separate rows (the collaborator, StatMap Community) and has
now been merged into one, confirmed the same target.
Co-built the Fractal Model. TTrades ranks #1 for fractal model; Toodegrees
ranks #16 for ttrades fractal model. No link either direction yet. Ask sent by
the owner directly on 2026-09-07 — awaiting reply. No further action until a response
arrives; do not re-send.
Owner confirmed 2026-09-07: prop firms don't do backlink exchanges. Dropped from the Tier 1 target list. Do not re-recommend.
Already a listed partner on /ecosystem and independently ranks #5 for
inverse fair value gap. Two reasons to ask at once: the standard reciprocal
partner-page ask, plus a pitch for a guest data piece given they already rank in this
category. Not yet attempted through either angle.
Do not use Reddit or Medium for the dofollow problem, both are nofollow. They stay queued in Tier 2 for the separate LLM-citation and brand-SERP problems.
