# LikeHobby

> LikeHobby helps adults find beginner-friendly hobbies by time, energy, budget, space, social mood, and first-session friction.

G116 delivery note: The Bored guide now asks for time and need in a compact two-column mobile chooser, keeps place optional, and returns one free reset with a clear finish line. Its search title, description, H1, 40-idea order, 96 ranking states, two-session proof, and zero-or-one blocker-matched product gate remain unchanged.

G112 delivery note: The Active Hobbies guide now answers its measured adult, active, and physical-hobby searches with a concise indoor-and-outdoor title, specific examples, and the same three-result free first-session matcher. Its 25-idea order, 27 match states, safety checks, zero-product path, and measurement contract remain unchanged.

G113 delivery note: The Productive Hobbies guide now answers its measured `productive hobbies`, `productive hobby`, and `useful hobby` searches with a concise list title, concrete examples, and a shorter mobile first-screen promise. Its 25-idea order, five-filter ranked shortlist, two-session proof, and zero-or-one blocker-matched product gate remain unchanged.

G114 delivery note: The Men at Home guide now answers its measured `hobbies for men at home`, `hobbies at home for men`, and `hobbies for guys at home` searches with a concise exact-intent title, five concrete examples, and a shorter mobile first-screen promise. Its inclusive framing, 25-idea order, 27 match states, three-result shortlist, free first session, and zero-product path remain unchanged.

G115 delivery note: The Adults guide now answers its measured `hobbies for adults`, `hobbies`, and `adult hobbies` searches with a concise try-this-week title, five concrete examples, and a shorter mobile first screen. Its 35-idea order, 96 matcher states, three-result router, and zero-shopping boundary remain unchanged.

G111 delivery note: The Starter Kits guide now matches its measured affordable-kit search intent with a concise title, price range, and first-screen answer. Its three-path order, fit ranking, two-session proof, zero-link arrival, and zero-or-one blocker-matched product gate remain unchanged.

G110 delivery note: The Beginner guide now asks only for desired result and available time before showing three free first-session starts. Energy, setup, and company remain available in one native optional disclosure; its 25-idea order, two-session proof, and zero-or-one blocker-matched product gate remain unchanged.

G109 delivery note: The At Home guide now leads with the two choices that change a recommendation most—energy and desired result—while space and cleanup remain available in a native optional disclosure. Its concise title and summary match the measured `hobbies to do at home` intent; the 30-idea order, two-date proof, and zero-or-one blocker-matched product gate remain unchanged.

G106 delivery note: After completing a free homepage session, a visitor can send that exact no-buy session through the device share sheet or copy a controlled link. The recipient lands directly on the same session and can enter the existing save-and-repeat loop. The 18 allowed links contain only need and time tokens, never a visitor, sharer, recipient, account, or contact identifier; invalid tokens fail back to the ordinary homepage.

G103 delivery note: LikeHobby now opens as an audience-first hobby discovery edition. A visitor chooses what they need and how much time they have, then receives one free, no-buy first session in two decisions. The 59-hobby atlas remains available in a collapsed browse layer, and shared first-party receipts connect chooser opening, recommendation viewing, idea selection, session start, session completion, and guide handoff without mixing controlled test traffic into real activity.

G100 delivery note: LikeHobby now self-hosts the official GoogleChrome web-vitals 6.0.1 standard build and collects privacy-bounded LCP, INP, and CLS receipts from real visits. Reports contain only metric value, canonical path, stable content identifier, coarse viewport and navigation classes, release metadata, test status, and a metric-instance deduplication ID; they exclude selectors, entries, query strings, URL fragments, user-agent strings, network details, free text, and visitor or session identifiers.

G93 delivery note: The Seniors guide now starts with zero active product links, requires the same free hobby session on two occasions plus repeat intent and a compatible blocker, and then reveals either no product or exactly one disclosed, blocker-matched Amazon comparison. Shared first-party measurement joins the proof sequence to the qualified commerce path and rejects invalid destinations or missing disclosures before navigation.

G90 delivery note: The About page now gives readers and crawlers one descriptive, measured path to the Social Hobbies comfort matcher. The target guide remains byte-identical, preserving its held title, description, H1, 25-idea order, fit scoring, first-visit proof, and zero-commerce arrival.

G89 delivery note: The Active, Men at Home, Hobby Essentials, and Solo guide footer links now use the canonical quiz handoff contract. One click emits `quiz_entry_click`, stages controlled source attribution, and permits one matching `quiz_arrival`; the held URL, title, description, H1, recommendation order, and commerce boundary of all four guides remain unchanged.

G88 delivery note: The held At Home search and 30-idea editorial contract remains unchanged, while the same measured hobby must now be completed on two distinct local dates. Three exact idea-and-blocker states can reveal one disclosed comparison, 81 qualified states return no product, and 252 incomplete or contradictory states fail closed.

G83 delivery note: The indexed Methodology page now gives readers and crawlers one descriptive, measured path to the Stress Relief Hobbies calm-fit chooser. The target guide's held title, description, H1, eight-path order, proof logic, product mappings, and zero-or-one commerce boundary remain unchanged.

G82 delivery note: The Productive Hobbies guide now keeps its no-buy chooser action inside compact first viewports, ranks one best match plus two alternatives instead of returning empty filter states, progressively reveals optional setup and screen refinements on mobile, gives shortlist actions 44px targets, and measures the initial recommendation view. The held title, description, H1, 25-idea order, five-filter taxonomy, two-session proof, and blocker-qualified commerce gate are unchanged.

G80 delivery note: The mobile Hobby Atlas now reaches recommendation cards after only the essential Time and Energy controls; Cost, Location, and Social remain available in an explicit More filters disclosure. The same release defines a privacy-minimized meaningful visit as 10 seconds of active reading, a first meaningful action, or a second pageview, with exactly one engaged_landing receipt per page.

G80 Weekend delivery note: The held Weekend Hobbies search and recommendation contract remains unchanged, while its completed no-buy proof record now persists locally for up to 30 days. weekend_plan_saved and weekend_plan_return distinguish durable plans and genuine browser returns; qualification still exposes zero Amazon links until a compatible blocker is proven.

G81 delivery note: The highest-traffic Introvert guide now compresses only its mobile hero image and type rhythm so the quiet-fit chooser action remains visible on compact phone viewports. The held title, description, H1, 40-idea order, recommendation scoring, two-session proof, and blocker-qualified commerce gate are unchanged.

G77 delivery note: LikeHobby now has a privacy-minimized, local revenue-reconciliation ledger that deduplicates strict first-party click receipts, excludes test and legacy traffic, and keeps Amazon orders and commission authoritative only at reporting-period and Tracking ID scope. Raw platform-log envelopes and personal data are never stored in the ledger, operator raw exports expire within 30 days, identifier-bearing normalized receipts expire within 120 days, and content-level commission remains NULL rather than estimated.

G78 delivery note: The flower pressing guide now uses an intended format, a protected real test, repeat intent, and one compatible observed blocker across 24 valid outcomes: 21 no-buy and 3 one-product. It exposes zero Amazon links on arrival, partial answers, no-buy results, and eligible results before an explicit reveal; all 39 contradictory states fail closed. The G74 Stress Relief bridge and measured G46 Flower-to-Quiet link remain unchanged.

Measurement privacy note: LikeHobby uses versioned first-party receipts with a random per-event delivery ID but no visitor or session identifier. The identifier is not reused across events; the affiliate receipt reuses only the matching outbound-click event ID so duplicate deliveries can be reconciled, while controlled tests remain separate from real activity.

G76 delivery note: The stress-relief guide now uses eight explicit calm paths, an actual-session proof report, repeat intent, and one observed blocker across 64 valid outcomes: 61 no-buy and 3 one-product. It exposes zero Amazon links on arrival, partial answers, no-buy results, and eligible results before an explicit reveal; all 104 contradictory states fail closed.

G75 delivery note: The beginner punch needle guide now uses an exact compatibility, borrowed-trial, repeat-intent, and observed-blocker matcher with 24 valid outcomes: 15 no-buy and 9 one-product. It exposes zero Amazon links on arrival, fails contradictory states closed, and can reveal exactly one locally disclosed, format-specific comparison only after proof.

G74 delivery note: The stress-relief guide now exposes three descriptive, measured low-pressure paths to beginner punch needle, flower pressing by first project, and easy hobby classes for seniors. Each destination keeps its held search, recommendation, proof, and commerce contract unchanged while gaining a second static inbound link.

G72 delivery note: The Hobby Atlas now exposes descriptive, measured one-click paths to four previously isolated exact-fit guides: solo hobbies, active hobbies, beginner essentials, and hobbies for men at home. The frozen popular-guide shortcuts, first problem-led card, target guide copy, recommenders, proof gates, and commerce boundaries remain unchanged.

G61 delivery note: All 49 measured or utility pages serve the existing Fraunces, Manrope, Imperial Script, and Material Symbols typography locally with the same visual hierarchy, while removing external Google Fonts stylesheet requests and preserving every held search, recommendation, proof, and commerce contract.

G59 delivery note: All 49 measured or utility headers now expose the canonical eight-question match flow as Find My Hobby. Editorial mobile headers retain the two decision actions, Explore and Find My Hobby, while held quiz copy, scoring, results, and no-buy framing remain unchanged.

G58 delivery note: The Hobby Atlas now gives adults who are not sure what fits a direct, measured path to three seven-day no-buy trials, while held search copy, recommendations, guide logic, and commerce boundaries remain unchanged.

G57 delivery note: The Hobby Atlas now serves lower-priority 400 and 800 pixel responsive card images while its held search, five filters, four popular-guide shortcuts, 59-hobby catalog, save behavior, and detail flow remain unchanged.

G56 delivery note: The beginner guide keeps its shortlist action fully inside the first desktop viewport and serves 768, 1200, and 1600 pixel WebP hero variants while its held search, 25-idea, exact-three, two-session proof, and commerce contracts remain unchanged.

G55 delivery note: Two current high-traffic guides serve 768, 1200, and 1600 pixel WebP hero variants while their frozen editorial, matcher, proof, and commerce contracts remain unchanged.

## Machine-Readable Discovery

- G105 discovery note: the homepage can retain one controlled no-buy plan for up to 30 days and restore it without a visitor identifier; the 2026-08-27 Privacy update discloses the exact fields, fallback scopes, and clearing action. The matching IndexNow payload contains the homepage, Privacy, sitemap, feed, and llms.txt URLs.
- G103 discovery note: the 2026-08-27 sitemap and RSS release identify the materially updated homepage, while the matching IndexNow payload contains exactly that canonical URL.

- G72 discovery note: a deterministic sitemap-backed internal-link graph now reaches all 52 canonical URLs from the homepage. Four descriptive constraint-led links reduce the Solo Hobbies, Active Hobbies, Hobby Essentials, and Hobbies for Men at Home pages from zero crawlable inbound links and unreachable depth to one inbound link and depth one, while preserving all active experiment holds.
- G71 discovery note: the Screen-Free Hobbies guide now keeps its canonical 35-idea intent while aligning exactly 35 visible ideas with a 35-item structured list, adding a no-default four-constraint chooser across 54 complete filter states, and enforcing the 390/96/3/93 partition for raw, valid, product-qualified, and no-buy trial states. Initial, partial, recommendation, and trial-report states contain zero Amazon links; one disclosed comparison requires a completed offline session, repeat intent, a compatible missing-basic blocker, and an explicit reveal.
- G70 discovery note: the beginner embroidery guide preserves its canonical, title, meta description, H1, and three-format editorial order while replacing eager three-product exposure and blank filter states with no-default answers, 96 exhaustive raw states, a 21-terminal / 6-product / 15-no-buy partition, official no-buy learning resources, and at most one disclosed comparison after a repeat-worthy trial identifies a compatible parts or instruction blocker.
- G69 discovery note: the beginner birdwatching guide preserves its canonical search intent and five-option editorial order while changing the commerce contract to no gear first, no default answers, 24 exhaustive terminal states, an 8 product / 16 no-buy partition, and at most one disclosed paid comparison after a repeat-worthy session identifies a compatible blocker.
- G65 discovery note: the men-at-home guide targets a distinct English search intent with 25 crawlable ideas, 27 deterministic time-space-payoff states, exactly three no-buy starts, inclusive constraint-based framing, and one earned first-party guide after completion and repeat intent; all earlier held pages remain unchanged.
- G64 discovery note: the hobby-essentials guide targets the distinct hobby essentials intent with twelve crawlable starter paths, 27 deterministic match states, exactly three no-buy tests, and one earned first-party guide after completion and repeat intent; earlier held titles, recommendations, and directory ordering remain unchanged.
