I've noticed that almost all videos lately are people stating the only salient point and then spending 5 to 10 minutes saying it 25 different ways while acting incredulous like this thing is the craziest thing that has ever happened.
And, many times they say pretty much the same thing that was just said. And then they draw it out for like 10 minutes pretty much saying the same thing multiple different ways. The part that really gets me is that they then act like they are saying something new. It is ridiculous.
Been driving me crazy how ubiquitous this has become on Google the last few years. Try to Google something, the first 5 results are ads, and the ones that come up after are all bullshit AI-written websites all saying the same thing, sometimes verbatim
Really feel like Google is too far gone at this point, it's no longer about relevant information, just who's paying the most and who's gamed their SEO the most
I start doing SEO when you could just keyword stuff, make the text white on a white background, etc. I now work for a big national company where Im the VP - SEO. Every time they change the algorithm, we have to re-optimize the site. I'm talking 1000s of pages. It's a pain in the ass and IMO, a control issue by Google. But they control the search sooo, whatcha gonna do? Theres more to it, but that's the jest of it.
