updates to the way in which our team sends out the website details, to make sure we improve the security of our communications
we've added a Discord channel, to make sure NOTHING gets lost due to faulty email communications. We're using Google WorkSpaces, so our emails should be received by any inbox, but we've seen it's not the case. Two of our clients had problems with this, so we decided to provide an alternative means of communication, where Florin and Peter can always be reached.
added Elementor AI (which is paid separately from Elementor PRO) into the AISQbusiness package. Us, at Squirrly, pay more for our clients, but we don't charge our customers extra for this part. It's a cost we've taken upon ourselves.
Re-designed the crons and the systems that help trigger out the social media posts inside Squirrly Social
There were a few cases, in which the automations weren't doing the proper triggers when using the Post Groups. Since it depended on many aspects related to the connection tokens of different social media profiles, we went ahead and we've re-written the entire system to make it work better.
Squirrly SEO Finishes the Many Updates to Keyword Research Algorithms and Infrastructure
TODAY:
We've increased our server capacity for the services that run checks for search volume and for the websites listed in TOP 10 search results for every single keyword that gets checked against your 20, or 50 keywords (depending on the normal, or deep keyword research that you ran).
Below, is a recap of the other updates related to this massive undertaking:
Even More Fixes Made to the Search Volume Calculations in Squirrly SEO
Even more upgrades for Keyword Research in Squirrly SEO
The basic 20 researches / keyword - just got upgraded when it comes to the data it displays for Competitive Clarity Index. It is now similar to what we have for the Deep Keyword Research, which does 50 researches / keyword.
These updates have affected many of our systems and we're working on upgrading the capacity, as this has now become more resource-intensive.
Changing parts of our system (internal services we created that run algorithms for us) - to Laravel 11
Changes made to MarketIntelligence in SquirrlySEO, to provide better RANKING potential data
Changes still being made to Search Volumes and Search Competition data and some new algorithms
More Changes to the Competitive Clarity Index
Finished testing and a new round of updates to APIs for internal services in Squirrly SEO, and externals that we send to tools like Next Level Marketing by AISQ
Updates Targeting Search Volumes and info we send to all our Apps regarding search volume
Updates targeting new algorithms inside Squirrly SEO for better defining the Competitive Clarity Index used in our Keyword Research Tool
New Updates to Keyword Research inside Squirrly SEO and Next Level Marketing are still being checked and tested.
The new system for competitive clarity index has caused issues inside Next Level Marketing.
We're also working on new search volume data in Squirrly SEO.
Changes made to MarketIntelligence in SquirrlySEO, to provide better RANKING potential data
We should now be able to provide much better data for
"low competition"
or
"high competition"
in Squirrly SEO.
We've made other tweaks to keyword research to make it faster.
But now, the keyword competitiveness (made for SEO; we're one of the few in the world who show this) gives much closer-to-reality details now. It's still not as advanced as the system inside Next Level Marketing AI by Squirrly, but it now became very close to that.
New Logo and Name for Hide My WP Ghost by Squirrly
We are leaders in Hack Prevention Software for WordPress, and we want to make sure everyone know that our security product has moved away A LOT from just hiding WordPress.
Therefore, the name Hide My WP Ghost, can't really paint a good enough picture for what we offer in 2024.
WP Ghost is the name that almost of all our clients prefer anyway (especially when they talk about it to other people they know).
WP Ghost will be the new name, and for about 1 year moving forward we'll keep writing things like:
WP Ghost (aka Hide My WP Ghost) or WP Ghost, previously known as Hide My WP Ghost.
Pricing Plans are called the Ghost Plan, so no worries there, because everything will remain the same for any type of premium client we have.

How much would it cost to get everything we offer — if you were to buy every single piece from different providers?

Elementor PRO – $79 USD / year (at the level we give you inside AISQbusiness)

It’s easy.
Something called: Disruption!
We’ve been innovating at the Squirrly Company (now called AISQ.com ) since 2012 !!!
We have an incredible tech infrastructure that we kept iterating and constantly testing… and we’ve spent over $4 Million USD building everything we have today.
Because of our entire family of products for Entrepreneurs and the way we’ve built our products and technologies, we are now in a unique position that allows us to bring this to all of you. With an un-precedented deal.

We should now be able to provide much better data for
"low competition"

in Squirrly SEO.
We've made other tweaks to keyword research to make it faster.
But now, the keyword competitiveness (made for SEO; we're one of the few in the world who show this) gives much closer-to-reality details now. It's still not as advanced as the system inside Next Level Marketing AI by Squirrly, but it now became very close to that.

We've recently launched 4x Update Packs in 30 days.
For those of you who only joined us recently, let's make a big recap with everything that changed:
License and User System

Option to disable all HMWP features SOLELY for the users with IPs from the list of whitelisted IPs (example: people from your office)
Whitelist IPs to provide your office space, for example, with the ability of working on your WP site with the usual admin paths.

On the 6th of May 2024, we've announced many new updates: including a powerful new firewall, 2 Factor Authentication, more updates to Brute Force, changing security items from our security audit directly from the plugin, instead of working with a ftp.
^^ this is already very cool! Because you can now perform the:
Security Tests !!! Make the security tests inside Hide My WP Ghost, and then use the new action buttons we've added to "Fix It" on the spot, without having to rely on others for help.
After that, a really big update for those who have the special 3 Codes Plans for Hide My WP Ghost by Squirrly:
Today, I have something exciting to show users who have purchased the 3 Codes Plans for Hide My WP Ghost by Squirrly.
It's a feature that was requested via our support channels in many different ways, and we've decided to build it to resemble the Web Dev Kit we have inside Squirrly SEO.
You can now customize a zip file for your clients directly from the cloud app of Hide My WP Ghost.
This will help you install a zip, and already have the most important aspects pre-configured. This update should make it super easy for you to install HMWP just the way you like on all the client sites managed by your agency.
There are many options you can pre-configure for all the next installs you plan to make.
My only word of advice to those who are new to Hide My WP Ghost is:
Try to get familiar with the plugin and the many security options first. Find your perfect kind of setup. One that you like a lot and wish to apply to all your clients.
And then go and configure a new plugin to use for all the next installations.
Available on the 3 Codes plan only.
Coming up next:
- Announce Magic Links - Announce Geo Blocking
Then, we kept pushing more updates:
More Udates to Hide My WP Ghost by Squirrly will be announced soon.
Magic Links Logins have been announced today, to follow up the updates you can see in our feed. Directly on our LinkedIN Page: just scroll to 31st May 2024 and 6th May 2024 to check them out at your own pace.
Coming back with the 4th updates pack for Hide My WP Ghost, from the last 30 days.
We've worked very hard to bring you these update packs and I hope you enjoy them. It took us many months to finish all these, so now we're happy we could release so many for you.
There are also many fixes that never reach the light of day (meaning I never get to promote them via RoadMap, Social Media and email), because working on more compatibilities and integrations is constant work for a security plugin focused on prevention.
I've placed the messages I've been sending out to those who already expressed interest and joined the waitlist (640 people).
AI Hub became a part of Next Level Marketing AI after testing made by our teams and also the initial batch of Alpha users that we've let in during Q4 2023 and Q1 2024.
But let's talk about 2024 here. Squirrly SEO is a very complex and dual SaaS+plugin Software, making it the only SEO tool on the market capable of helping you with HolisticSEO, navBoost and all the other important Google Ranking factors uncovered, thanks to the big Google algorithm leak.
We have many services, APIs and servers that keep every major component alive:
admin
cloud app
keyword research - the AI side
keyword research assistant - with AI
keyword research - the analysis parts of the algorithm, that work with Competitive Clarity Index, our algorithms for defining search volumes, back-up routines for when we can't properly identify keyword search volumes the first time, Market Intelligence
briefcase and history
focus pages overview and focus pages details (these things check, measure and operate on over 113 ranking factors proven by the Google leak to be valid)
next SEO goals and the AI Consultant
Ranking Vision AI
Audit by Squirrly (Blogging Audit, Traffic Audit, Social Media Audit, Website Authority Audit, Backlinks Audit) + the compare and history features
Web Dev Kit by Squirrly
SERP Checker cloud by Squirrly
the basic serp checker when users don't have credits for SERP Checker Cloud by Squirrly (the one that is free)
the performance analytics features inside the SERP Checker area
SEO Live Assistant on Cloud App and Plugin
inner links automated suggestions and tracking
and a few others
Even though you see many updates to the WordPress plugin itself, there are many updates made to all the services which power all the components I've listed above.
Squirrly SEO was first built in 2012.
To prepare ourselves for the next 12 years, we've focused mostly on:
- Making Squirrly SEO ready to work awesomely together with Next Level Marketing AI by Squirrly - Increasing the number of Focus Pages (and making sure the system will keep being reliable and able to process data in a sustainable way) - Spending tons of money on developer hours internally and also getting outside help to speed the process :: solely for getting:
servers
worker systems
php versions
frameworks for php
react and node js components
server operating systems
database systems (we use mixes of SQL based dbs and Mongo dbs)
Many older processes, systems, frameworks, OS'es, etc. were getting either deprecated, we could no longer get support ourselves as a Company from those developers/providers.
The amount of pain, time, trial and error, bugs, etc. would not have been worth it, if we didn't plan for the next 12 years and for the future developments.
Those who know me from my personal brand website and from the lessons I teach via Education Cloud PLUS by Squirrly and Startup Espresso Podcast already know I love software, and that I've been in love with software from an incredibly young age.
But when doing these sorts of menial tasks, I can only say: I hate software. To have to go through the pains of migrating huge amounts of data, re-writing so much code and more: it's just painful.
Why? - because nobody cares that you do all these enormous tasks. Users don't get any perceived value out of it.
And for me personally: I also can't get excited about them, because they don't bring improvements to the output quality of each of these services.
There are too many things that change from year to year when building software products, especially a product that's on such a large scale, and with so many connected services.
Starbox PRO, Hide My WP and Squirrly Social don't even compare, for example. I love those products, but none of them will reach this level of complexity.
However, before we do a public release and an official milestone of launching the best version of Squirrly SEO: Newton, all these things had to be taken care of.
We can't invite people in for joining the Holistic SEO Revolution and then leaving them hanging because our services stop working one by one.
As we've grown past the $4 Million USD mark, it was the perfect time to take care of all this.
Can't expect much from the future, if you don't spend money where your mouth is.
I'm happy we could do this and prepare everything for the next 12 years.
This is not to say that we haven't made other updates come to life as well.
It's just that we've spent over 5 months on these aspects. Most of our developers were engaged in that and also the outside help.
A normal startup wouldn't have made it.
Now, for the other updates:
= 12.3.16 = Compatible with WP 6.42 Update - Add the option to select the label for the Keyword Research Update - Add the option to select the label for the Research > History Update - Add the option to select the label for the Research > Suggestion Update - GA properties to show only the domain mathing domains Update - SLA for Divi not to take the header and footer in LP optimization Fixed - SLA loading issue for Oxygen Builder Fixed - Stop loading any resource from Squirrly when Page builder in preview Fixed - Keyword Sync on Rankings Fixed - Bulk keyword deletion in Briefcase Fixed - Bulk label deletion in Briefcase

Planned: https://squirrly.feedbear.com/boards/squirrly-seo?filter=Planned In Progress: https://squirrly.feedbear.com/boards/squirrly-seo?filter=In+progress
We've also released more videos on:

Firewall and GeoBlocking Features in Hide My WP Ghost
Coming back with the 4th updates pack for Hide My WP Ghost, from the last 30 days.
We've worked very hard to bring you these update packs and I hope you enjoy them. It took us many months to finish all these, so now we're happy we could release so many for you.

You can now customize a zip file for your clients directly from the cloud app of Hide My WP Ghost.

Keep a fast social tempo, Florin Muresan, CEO, Squirrly Makers of Squirrly Social
Hide My WP Ghost: Updates to the Updates Message from last week. Platform change.
Since 2012, the Squirrly Company, makers of your WordPress Security Plugin, Hide My WP Ghost, have announced product updates using the Twitter Platform.
Thanks to feedback from those of you in our community, I see now that Twitter/X no longer allows people to read content from X, unless they register an account. This is completely against what the old Twitter stood for, and we will start announcing updates to all our products (includin Hide My WP Ghost) on LinkedIN, moving forward.
LinkedIN allows users to read without having to be logged in. Scroll down to the Updates section of our Squirrly page, and you will find the updates.
We've copied the latest batch of update to the LinkedIN feed.
And you can also have a look at the entire changelog. (this is from the Official Roadmap). We've also released two update packs in March that we didn't announce via email yet.
The only thing with the Roadmap is: you can sort by "Done" and choose to see latest DONE updates first, but we've now fixed for Hide My WP issues that have been signaled to us many months ago (new features, added security, etc. which took more time to develop). Those updates will show below other older updates, even though they are completely new items added to the plugin.
There are 50 Courses right now inside Education Cloud PLUS, available under one single subscription (or one time fee plan).
Here's the catch:
Existing subscribers will keep their current prices for their current plans. We don't increase the prices paid by on-going clients.
New subscribers will have to get their Premium Pass for:
$15.99 | $159.99 | $399
USD (monthly, yearly, lifetime).
We started Education Cloud PLUS in 2020, and it was an EdTech platform created by the Squirrly Company. This one came to provide an upgrade to our users who were on the older Education Cloud platform we've had since 2014.
When Education Cloud PLUS was announced there were only 6 courses inside at $9.99 USD / month.
The clients who got that early bird price now still pay us only $9.99 USD / month, but they get 50 courses instead of just 6.
And they also received the brand new AI courses that help our students upskill and reskill to generative AI technologies.

It's been a long time coming... ever since the moment when we created an AI content writer inside the Blogging Assistant of Squirrly SEO last year (we didn't officially release it).
After testing and thinking, we saw a real need for making fully automated End-to-End marketing available for everyone.
With your help, your feedback and your experience, we've realized that fully automated sounds good, but isn't, so we now have a "Move Things Forward" section, where our users will make approvals and decide how things will move forward.
So you will not have any unwanted "surprises" from the AI.
AI Hub will become a sub-section of Next Level Marketing by Squirrly, where users will start building custom tools that make our AI Specialists create more "on-brand" materials.
We ran a very limited Alpha with few members of our audience, but there's good news:
- our v2 of the Web App is ready and we will begin a larger Alpha version soon. We hope it will be April 2024, but might only be in May 2024. - our WordPress Plugin (you will NOT need WP to use Next Level Marketing, but this is a good extra for those who DO use WP) is also ready now. - Squirrly Social and Email Hero had parts of them re-written to allow us to connect our AI Specialists from within NL to these other tools we've built.
You give a topic (or a keyword).
You will get: - a content plan - that content plan will be fully executed by our AI Specialists - everything you approve will be published to the site - for each approved piece, our AI Specialists can create social media messages and emails to promote the new piece. - you approve those as well - the AIs then go on to promote the new content piece via Search Engines, Social Media Profiles, Email Inboxes, Google My Business feeds.
In the near future (somewhere in 2024 as well) we will also have the option to create and publish Ads for Facebook and Instagram from Next Level.
These are some very exciting times, and I can't wait to let you know more about our progress on this.
This updates pack includes changes that make Squirrly SEO compatible with Next Level Marketing AI by Squirrly (with the WordPress plugin part of Next Level)
Starbox PRO v2 is now Officially Out of Beta. Stable version ready and emails sent to everyone who is elligible to receive it as a gift from us. v1 still remains.

I have great news today, too: Reusable Schemas + Custom Patterns + Reusable in SEO Automation is now released and stable!!!
This should come as amazing news to all of you who have themes, or plugins which help you with custom fields for your posts, pages or custom post types.
Create a reusable schema type. Squirrly SEO will look at all the fields you've completed for a certain custom post type and then grab all those fields and automatically create new Patterns for them!
Once you complete a reusable schema with all the details and all the new patterns, you can save it for later usage.
You can even add it to the SEO Automation feature of Squirrly SEO, which makes it extremely powerful.
Your editors or authors will just have to complete the details, and then Squirrly SEO will automatically take all the inputs they've given and create the proper schemas on its own.
Any author will add to your schema, without actually adding to the schema themselves.
You can customize and personalize any schema and save it as reusable, so you can cut your time at least in half.
Hope you'll enjoy this brand new feature inside your Squirrly SEO: Newton.
And don't forget to nominate us for AI Plugins on the link for TemplateMonster. We now have 2x different AIs : one 100% proprietary and built by Squirrly Company, and one that uses our implementation on OpenAI for keyword research and research assistant.
More Info:
The Reusable Schema feature from Squirrly SEO is a tool that simplifies the process of adding structured data, specifically JSON-LD schema markup, to your website's content. JSON-LD schema markup is used to provide search engines with additional information about your content, which can enhance the appearance of your search results in the form of rich snippets.
Here's a breakdown of how the Reusable Schema feature works:
Creating a Schema Template: With Reusable Schema, you can create a template for a JSON-LD schema markup. This template defines the structured data you want to add to your content. This is particularly useful for customizing how your content appears in search results.
Matching Custom Fields: Reusable Schema allows you to match custom fields, such as those from plugins like Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), to your schema template. This matching process involves using placeholders like {{customfield(field_name)}} in your schema template. These placeholders are replaced with the actual values from your custom fields when the schema is generated.
Customizing Post Types: You can use Reusable Schema to customize various post types on your website, even if you don't use specific plugins like WooCommerce. For example, you can create a schema template for products or other content types and match the relevant custom fields to it.
How-To and FAQ Schema: Reusable Schema also allows you to create templates for How-To or FAQ content types. You can match the fields from these post types into the appropriate schema templates. This way, you can ensure that all your How-To or FAQ content follows the same structured data format.
Automation: Once you've created and saved your schema templates with all the necessary field mappings, you can use them in Squirrly SEO Automation. This means that Squirrly will automatically apply the customized schema to different post types or content that match the schema template criteria.
Reusable Schema simplifies the process of adding structured data to your website's content by allowing you to create templates, match custom fields, and automate the application of schema markup. This can enhance your content's appearance in search results and improve its search engine optimization (SEO) performance without requiring you to manually add schema markup to each individual post or page.
- Sending new keywords found (using 0 ... yes, zero credits) by Keyword Research Assistant via email inside the weekly reports.
So, yes! These brand new features just landed.
The focus pages method and the Ranking Vision AI (which is proprietary tech built by us) rely on amazing keywords. The problem?
- some of our users usually have a hard time coming up with keywords to input inside our research tool and we're sorry to see them stuck.
We've promised you we wouldn't be sitting on new technology, and we're serious about it. We've made a major stride in our Next Level Marketing AI by Squirrly, and because it's been so helpful, we decided to implement it in Keyword Research by Squirrly SEO as well.
You can now start a keyword research process from bad keywords like "travel", "therapist", "jewelry". If you don't know why these keywords are bad for SEO, take the 14 Days Journey ASAP! You will find it in the Overview section of Squirrly SEO.
From those keywords, we suggest extras you can try in step 2 of the KR process and then we will compile the final list with data in step 3 (driven by our Competitive Clarity Index). You will get keywords with already-done-for-you research data... and this time around we also follow the paths from the clusters we build with OpenAI for keywords, not just the ordinary Google search paths.
This helps us provide much better results AND the best part is that it will help you get unstuck. It will open your mind for brand new possibilities of what you can start searching for using the Keyword Research tool from Squirrly SEO.
Competitive Clarity Index was already better than any Competition Score for keywords, that you find in other SEO tools like Moz and SEMrush.
With this brand new addition, you'll find keywords that:
- are impossible for newbies to find on their own
- take SEO experts hours of work to find, sometimes days
All within one keyword research session inside Squirrly SEO, on the cloud app, or inside WP.
What do you think?
Ready to try it out and offer us feedback? - we'd love it!
