It strips query params used for tracking. Has it never bothered you when you click share on Instagram or YouTube and it inserts a unique-to-you "share ID" in the URL? I was burned by this once, now every time I copy a share URL fr

What is "seo.ai" and how do they determine the numbers they publish? I looked and didn't find any methodology or real data, just a bunch of fluff words.
