Woo that scared me!

You know when you look up and someone has just APPEARED and it startles you?  Even when you are home and it’s just family it still startles you right??
Tonight DH said “Why is Mority staring at the wall??”  I look over (mind you I’ve walked past Mority maybe a dozen times already since our son Zachary had been over to visit…… but never even saw him!!! Observant is NOT my strong suit!) Anyway, looked over and Mority is right THERE!!  Scared the
s%#$ outta me!!  Mority belongs in the diningroom… where he’s been for the last 5 years!  Having him just appear in the in livingroom… not funny!  NOT funny!
ZACHARY LEAVE MORITY ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(If you don’t know the story about Mority https://peanutbutterandwhine.com/2010_12_26_archive.html go back to here LOL if you have 15 minutes you will NEVER get back… that is)

Updating My SEO Because Even the Internet Needs a Good Declutter

If you’ve been poking around peanutbutterandwhine.com lately and thought, “Huh, something feels different,” congratulations. Your instincts are sharp and possibly paranormal.

I’m deep in the process of updating my SEO. Not the glamorous kind of update where confetti falls and Google personally thanks me, but the gritty, behind-the-scenes kind where old posts get dusted off, links get refreshed, and keywords are gently coaxed into behaving better. Think less makeover montage, more haunted house cleanup.

While revisiting early posts, I discovered something unsettling. Many of the original photos and videos have completely vanished. Not broken links. Not corrupted files. Gone. Poof. Into the digital ether. This can only confirm one thing: peanutbutterandwhine.com is haunted.

There is no other explanation. Sure, it could be old hosting changes, platform migrations, or me being wildly optimistic about my organizational skills a decade ago. But let’s be honest. It’s ghosts. Internet ghosts. Possibly annoyed by my early font choices.

So here I am, updating old posts with new images, clearer formatting, better internal linking, and SEO-friendly structure so Google can finally understand what I’ve been yelling into the void all these years. I’m also making sure posts connect to each other logically, like linking back to my ongoing fun stuff such as the Monthly $50 Your Way Giveaway right here:

Internal links help readers stick around, help search engines crawl the site, and possibly appease the spirits living in my archives.

I’m also adding relevant external links to trustworthy sources, because Google appreciates good neighbors. For example, SEO best practices straight from the pros over at Moz:

The goal isn’t to rewrite history. It’s to make sure my content is still useful, readable, and visible in a world where the internet changes faster than my craft room fills up.

If you stumble across a refreshed post, missing photos, or suspiciously improved clarity, just know it’s intentional. And if something disappears again overnight… I’ll be lighting a sage bundle and updating my alt text.

Stay tuned. The ghosts are watching. 👻
