Spent $300 on a fancy SEO audit report last month and then ignored it for two weeks before I realized it just pointed out my biggest mistake the whole time.
Turns out I had duplicate meta descriptions on half my product pages in Chicago, and the audit told me that on page 3 but I was so fixated on backlinks I didn't even read it, anyone else ever pay for a tool and then not actually use it right?

Page 3 is where they bury the real problems. Classic move.

Page 3 is always where they stick the stuff they don't want you to see, @rowanw31. I've noticed this pattern EVERYWHERE, not just in reports. Walk into any store and the expensive, healthy stuff is at eye level while the cheap, sugary garbage is on the bottom shelf or hidden behind the register. Same with grocery store layouts - the fresh produce is right up front, but the deep-frozen stuff they want to push is shoved back in the corner. Page 3 is just the corporate version of that, burying the real costs or the fine print where nobody's looking. It's a dirty trick, but once you see it you can't unsee it.
