I had spent a lot of time and care writing a post because I wanted to share an experience that meant a lot to me.

Afterward, I was quietly expecting a good response… but wait, wasn’t the response much colder than I expected?

When I checked the post analysis on Bledex, the post had been omitted from search!

No, sir, omitted? What do you mean omitted!

No way!

I said no way…! Sob.

Experiencing an omission for the first time was a surprisingly fresh shock.

Usually, even when my blog index showed as “Semi-Optimal 1,” I comforted myself by saying, “My blog is just for diary purposes, and it is new anyway, so it is fine.”

But after experiencing people liking and commenting on my posts, my thoughts had recently started to change.

I wondered, “Should I take the blog a little more seriously?” So I had started searching about SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and related topics…

And then suddenly, an omission! I could not just sit there.

Identifying the cause

First, I used Bledex’s post analysis feature to examine the factors that seemed likely to have caused the omission.

Attempt 1 to fix the omission: remove external links

I said no way…! Sob.

Attempt 2 to fix the omission: edit the title

…

No meaningful change. Still omitted.

Attempt 3 to fix the omission: edit the tags

Since I could enter up to 30 tags, I thought adding as many as possible would help search traffic. But after looking into it, I found that it was actually harmful.

I concluded that the best approach is to add none at all, or at most one or two.

Attempt 4 to fix the omission: edit the content

I wondered whether the beginning of the “How Was Today?” series had too many verification-style elements.

So I created a separate “Today’s Verification” category and split the content out.

And then…!

Oh!!! Finally!

The omission disappeared! 😭

Through this experience of escaping a post omission, I learned a lot about SEO.

It was an extremely meaningful experience.

I hope this record can be at least a small reference for other bloggers too.
