Do simple backlinks still help SEO in 2026?

I keep seeing marketers talk about using free platforms like GitHub (97 DR) Pages for backlinks.

The setup looks simple:

  1. Create a repo
  2. Add an index.html page
  3. Turn on GitHub Pages
  4. Add your site link

Curious if anyone here has actually seen good SEO results from this method?

What’s the biggest onboarding mistake Shopify apps make?

For Shopify store owners, what frustrates you most during app onboarding?

Too many setup steps, confusing dashboards, long tutorials, forced account creation, or something else?

I’ve noticed apps that give one quick result fast usually feel much easier to adopt than apps trying to explain every feature upfront.

Biggest onboarding mistake app developers make

Biggest onboarding mistake Shopify app developers make?

Trying to explain every feature before the merchant gets their first result.

Most store owners don’t want a long setup tutorial. They want one quick win in the first 2 minutes.

Good onboarding should feel like:

  • install
  • configure
  • see value immediately

The best apps reduce friction, use smart defaults, and guide users step-by-step instead of overwhelming them with dashboards and settings.

A simple onboarding flow usually converts better than adding more features.

3 things merchants hate in Shopify apps

After working with Shopify merchants, the 3 biggest things store owners hate in Shopify apps are:

  1. Hidden pricing or surprise charges after installation
  2. Apps that slow down storefront speed and hurt conversions
  3. Complicated setup that needs a developer for basic features

Most merchants don’t mind paying for apps. They just want apps that are fast, transparent, and actually solve problems without creating new ones.

Honestly, simple UX + reliable support matters more than “100 features” for most Shopify stores.
