Thanks for posting Diane … just reading this and something that immediately jumped right off the page for me:
One forum participant described losing all ranking overnight for a website exceeding 10 years in age that had never utilized artificial intelligence for content generation.
As many of us on this forum have experienced since HCU ‘23, Google couldn’t give a sh1t about your pride and joy website you’ve been lovingly creating for 10 years, refusing to use AI. You’ll still get slapped … and plenty are getting slapped really hard in this update!
It’s partly why I have absolutely no problem with using tools like SEO Neo. Google doesn’t care about me and I don’t care about Google. If Ican generate 10k backlinks to a target and push it up the rankings, I’ll do it … and I won’t be worrying about flooding the web with all that spam.
It’s all transient.
Bring it on Google …
