2023-08-17 01:04:20 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

Ahrefs had a database update that makes many sites falsely appear to have increased numbers of keywords ranking. This is likely what's happening here. https://ahrefs.com/blog/keyword-traffic-estimations-update/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1691747292565721567

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
