We @TechpointAfrica have been preparing for the Google onslaught for over three years now. Two manual penalties and a lot of lost opportunities later, I woke up this morning to a leaderboard I've only ever seen in my head. Techpoint Digest, our flagship newsletter, is now a top 2 traffic source to Techpoint Africa. Google has been relegated to number 5. 'Direct' traffic still holds number one, and has for over five years. While this includes people who have wake up and type 'techpoint dot africa' directly into their browser, every single day, it is also a catch-all bucket for untraceable traffic sources. I've always respected that. But I've spent years obsessing and dreaming about Techpoint Digest cracking the top 5. It's now top 2. Now, I'll be first to admit that the drop in Google is partly the broader effect of AI-fication eating into traditional search. Any publisher knows how dominant Google once was. But that context doesn't take anything away from this. The newsletter grew because people chose it.

🚨 FOLLOW-UP: CHOWDECK & GLOVO RESPOND After a PSN News Explainer highlighted concerns raised by a Techpoint Africa @techpointafrica investigation into vendor verification on food delivery platforms, both Chowdeck @chowdeck and Glovo @glovoapp_ng have announced new measures aimed at improving customer safety and trust. Chowdeck has introduced Vendor Badges to help customers identify verified businesses, vendors awaiting verification, and stores operating under its assisted fulfilment model. The company also says it has strengthened onboarding checks, expanded manual reviews, and improved systems to detect impersonation and fraudulent activity. Glovo, in a response to Per Second News, @awuyamaryanne said it has “implemented additional structures and safeguards to further strengthen the overall safety and experience of our customers.” The updates come amid growing conversations about consumer protection, food safety, and accountability in Nigeria’s rapidly expanding food delivery industry. At PSN News Explainer, we don’t just explain stories that affect you and me. We follow up, track developments, and keep you informed when action is taken. @chowdeck @glovoapp_ng @techpointafrica @nafdac_ng @fccpcnigeria @awuyamaryanne #PSNNews #NewsExplainer #FollowUp #Chowdeck #Glovo FoodDelivery ConsumerProtection FoodSafety NigeriaTech DigitalCommerce NigeriaNews

Then I wrote incredible healthtech landscape reports & market maps. Got featured on Techpoint and set to be presented at a major conference later this year.
On the unemployed phase tweet: I am most proud of my spiritual regimen, which includes what I focused on as prayer points. I wanted to know who Jesus was.
