Yeah, this is a horror story. I can't be angry with him because I know all of his content mill brethren are doing it and this is just our life now. Time to go back to Yahoo.
This is why I believe in the long run we will end up with human curated niche search engines. A bit like a Yahoo / Google hybrid. Realistically when you look at specific niches such as say video gaming the number of web sites that offer content that’s of actual value is laughably small.
After putting my heart and soul into a site with 500 articles written and original images created by me, I went from $3,000 per month to $150 per month after the helpful content update. I experimented with AI sites on the side, and they are all thriving. It's just the new reality and it needs to be embraced.
To everyone involved in this: You're all littering the internet. The equivalent of someone backing a dump truck of trash and dumping it in your town's public square.
I was doing this "challenge" on my own (not even knowing it existed until referred to watch by YT) with 3 sites. Edvard may have (and you'll have to ask him) ran into the "POLAND" spam with G4 analytics (which isn't actually traffic at all and doesn't affect anything - they just abuse the G4 - and that's what it looks like). That would possibly account for his huge spike in "organic" (it's 'referral spam')
Interesting experiment... props for the work/money/automation involved... but 7 million pages is straight up trash... especially with only 22k traffic resulting from it
My question now would be: How can it be monetized? I have tried to build a new website myself with AI support, but it is rejected by AdSense. However, this is not a problem with existing sites if they already have AdSense.
Matt Diggity interviewed that one team that did something similar. They made like 100k a month or something stupid. Theyre obviously not there to make something to last. Quick money before the dip.
I think a more rational approach should have been to challenge all on the same niche.. niches affects the overall search volume a lot.. recepies got the most volume after the bulk content
Sir how many article should i post for my website to get good standing result in google adsense dashboard if i go for ads revevue to go, also when i reach for 400 to 500 dollar per month just using ad revenue ?
Hey Spencer, been a NP follower since 2016! Site project 4, I believe. Didn't you just publish a video about 12 days ago or so telling people not to start a blog with the sole purpose of driving traffic and converting sales? Anyway. Thanks dude!
I sure did. I wouldn't make your main business a blog with the sole purpose of getting traffic from Google. Its fun to play around with and experiment (like all these participants). But if you are going to start a blog in hopes of making real money, I would get traffic from Google AND lots of other traffic sources...do it right. (That was the point of my last video).
This update on the AI content challenge is both fascinating and revealing! The shift in strategies and the unexpected twists, especially with Edward's experience, provide valuable insights into the complexities of SEO and content creation. Thanks for sharing these updates, eagerly awaiting the final outcome in the next two months! 📊
I prefer watching your videos when you look straight at the camera and talk. It feels like you're talking straight to me. I don't like it when you record your side face by putting the camera to your side. That's just my opinion. :)
Tell that to people that put in years of 100% effort and played by the book, only to have Google destroy their traffic and send their traffic to that dumpster fire Reddit.
@@DropshipWARNING Those people unfortunately didn't get the memo that the only reason to drive organic traffic is to capture emails and grow an email list using a lead magnet (pop up on the site). Once you have your regular readers on an email list, your site could literally fall off the face of Google forever and you'd still be ok. There's a reason that Miles Beckler (and many other marketers) say that "the money is in the list". Fortunately, there are several other ways to drive traffic to a lead magnet - for example, paid ads, RUclips videos, TikTok, IG, etc. Organic traffic is only one small avenue nowadays, and probably the least-recommended anymore.
I think a balance is best. Not blasting 7 million articles but I’m also not going “all-in” on one site when we know G treats them as disposable and replaceable.
I watched "7,000,000 AI Generated Articles Published: What Happened?" I found it interesting, but I have a few critiques. First, the title is misleading. It should be "7,000,000 AI-Generated Articles Published: What Happened?" or "7,000,000 AI-Generated Articles Published: What Happened?" Second, the video doesn't provide any information on how the articles were generated. Third, the video doesn't provide any information on how the articles were published.
The title isn't misleading at all, you just added a dash, and the second title is exactly the same at the original one. Who cares on how the articles were published, the question is what happened and not how he did it
Hey Niche , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you to grow your channel by providing you with Seo Optimization , Highly Engaging Thumbnail + Video Editing and overall growth of your channel which will 100% help your channel grow faster ! Please Lmk what do you think ?
This is why we can't have nice things. People exploit everything. This is the enshitification of the internet.

what would happen if all 1 billion websites uploaded an additional 7 million pages?

Google March Core Update 2024 - Hello Idiots!!
I had a feeling this is how things would play out! Fun to get another update Spencer!

Thank you, Casey!

Very true.
I also started a website 4 months back. I publish AI content and my website has 80 posts and got 12k visitors at the end of february
Nice job!
Can I ask what niche you write on? No worries I don't speak or write in English so...
Hi, are you looking for an editor/publisher? I would love to work with you 👏🏻
Which ai platform do you use?
@@AstridKey Just ChatGPT
My question now would be: How can it be monetized? I have tried to build a new website myself with AI support, but it is rejected by AdSense. However, this is not a problem with existing sites if they already have AdSense.
I have 25,000 articles on a test site and Google is only indexing about 3,000 of them anyway. At its peak, had around 6k-7k articles indexed
Matt Diggity interviewed that one team that did something similar. They made like 100k a month or something stupid. Theyre obviously not there to make something to last. Quick money before the dip.
Interesting...theres a whole lot of ways to make money than having a job
Google refused to approve my site 3 years straight. I gave up😊
this didn't age well
How did he post 7mln articles? Which service can do this?
I think a more rational approach should have been to challenge all on the same niche.. niches affects the overall search volume a lot.. recepies got the most volume after the bulk content
The guy will have 1 billion articles by the end of the 6 months
Then deindex 😅😅
Sir how many article should i post for my website to get good standing result in google adsense dashboard if i go for ads revevue to go, also when i reach for 400 to 500 dollar per month just using ad revenue ?
How can one possibly upload 7 million articles and where?
He only gets 24 000 views from 7 000 000 articles ?! Is that a typo?
not a typo.
I have found site has 38M index insane they use AI and generated million dollars. Now the site was deindex 😅
How can I get new site post index, google is not indexing new post though they were not now.

In any case thank you to Edvard for doing that experiment for us all 😄
Absolutely, its very kind of him to share!
So AI articles and blogging does work ? Plz dumb it down for me ..any one ?
Please upload more frequently 😊

Do u share niches for ur subscribers?
😅😅 7M how he's doing that unbelievable really 24Uhr writing 🤯✍️✍️✍️✍️ I'm in 2 years publishing just 300 articles 😅
7 million i'm coding for this atm i was going to do 100 a days lols 7 million he must be using a local LLM or that world cost a fortune
Hi hi, and was scared to publish 6k articles.
someone thought even bigger :)
Hi, are you looking for an editor/publisher? I would love to work with you
@@iamelizaphangmailcomonly if you can do 7 mln articles a month
People already lazy and suffering from massive information overload, why make it worse....
You must edit the ai not fully written by it.
just make AI edit AI
Curious on Tom's website, it says it was founded by Ben Ferguson on the about within the site. Wondering is that also all AI info?
it is
@@aymenjelassi34 wow that seems pretty disingenuous
What really counts is how much $ Edvard made in January. Even if it got hit, rinse and repeat on a new site and keep making $.
I prefer watching your videos when you look straight at the camera and talk. It feels like you're talking straight to me. I don't like it when you record your side face by putting the camera to your side. That's just my opinion. :)
What a way to further pollute the internet with more trash.
7mil posts it'll be interesting to see if it's still indexed :D
i wonder what engine he uses to store that 7 millions articles.
Edvard needs to be deindexed, 7mil articles for 20k organic visits... 100% trash articles.
After the Latest Google Core Update, itseems like No AI website gonna survive it easily...
100% not worth the effort.
Build something real which would be long lasting just like what you built (niche pursuits!)

Nope, 7 MILLION!
