Episode description

E550: This guy nuked his company by getting greedy with AI generated pages after first seeing success.

This is a story mirrored by many reckless SEOs and webmasters.

I even share a story of a startup I’ve been monitoring for over a year now. They used tens of thousands of AI generated pages to rank for 213,000 keywords in just a few months. Now… they only rank for 1 keyword in the top positions of Google. Absolutely decimated.

But it turns out it is possible to recover from having your site penalized for using AI-generated spam. I share how one webmaster personally did it and how others say it has been done.
