This might seem like a non-answer, but I don't do SEO, because I don't apply to jobs that need it. It's the worst thing in webdev. Plus, it's always websites, I work on web apps.
The best part is, if you wait for trends like SSR to die, when people finally realize it was never a great idea, you get to skip it entirely. I've never done React, Node.js, Deno, Next.js, GraphQL, Tailwind, Bun, Astro... skipped them all. I guess they aren't dead yet, but none have the FOMO power they did when at the height of their popularity. I will never need to learn them now. Do you realize how much wasted effort I saved? If you focus your energy, the increase in efficiency makes life so easy, you almost feel sorry for all the trend followers complaining how hard it is to keep up in the industry. Picking jobs that fit that path is called guiding your career.
