We live in turbulent times, in which things happen that defy the most logical reasoning.
I don't have to tell you anything about the situation in Ukraine these days, you will be well informed. And everyone will have their own position, mine is that this madness must stop.
These days, in addition to following the news with concern, I am very worried about great professionals I know who, although they do not live in Ukraine, are close to the conflict. Julius Fedorovicius, who lives in Lithuania, and one of the great gurus of analytics, Simo Ahava, who lives in Finland. My best wishes to them and to all those who are suffering.
It is precisely from the latter, Simo, that I got his regular newsletter today. This time there are no analytics tips, nor activities of Simmer, the online academy he runs with his wife Mari, today his newsletter is dedicated to Ukraine, and more specifically on how to help the digital marketing industry in Ukraine and therefore the Ukrainian people.
Among the links that Simo sends, one has caught my attention. It is an article published by Alexys Rylko entitled "Awesome SEO & Digital Marketing Tools Made In Ukraine". I immediately got in touch and asked him for permission to replicate / adapt his article translated into English. It took cerocoma to give me his OK. So here we go.
Before we begin. Ahrefs and JetOctopus will double the contributions donated to Ukraine and add it as credits to the accounts using those services. |
