People and SEO Spam like this are ruining the internet. Fuck this shite.

@gamingonlinux

The thing is... is there even any profit or gain in this?
Are the people visiting shitty AI generated articles actually buying anything or clicking on Ads or whatever?
If not, what's the point?
Or is it just yet another grift where he can use this as evidence to sell some kind of course or service where he helps others to do the same?

@adaliabooks @gamingonlinux most people don't use ad blockers, so they'll get revenue by showing them lots and lots of ads
@adaliabooks @gamingonlinux They don’t seem to measure that - just traffic.

@andreimoment @gamingonlinux

Which on it's own is a fairly useless metric.
Are people staying and reading the articles? Or are they immediately closing and bouncing away to something else?

Anyone doing anything serious with data on the internet will know that kind of stuff, so if they're not telling you what engagement is like it's likely because it's bad.

People like this are polluting the internet and ruining search just to get a bigger meaningless number.

@adaliabooks @gamingonlinux I agree with all of the above. I’m pointing out the limitations of using shallow metrics to measure performance and success. Which success is likely tied to money rewards.

If there’s no measurement to distinguish crap traffic from useful traffic then it’s all ā€œgood trafficā€.

I wasn't meaning that post as an attack on what you'd said. Sorry if it sounded like it was.
