You can tell their LSI tool is on steroids or something to have picked such spun garbage to put on the front page instead of actual reviews that might be helpful - at least readable!<br /><br />I notice they've cleaned up that particular example. Not perfect but MUCH better. Let's hope THAT trend continues. <br /><br />I feel miserable for those whose businesses and incomes have suffered. Makes you wonder if Google had any idea what impact their change would have on the livelihood of small businesses or if it was just an unintended, unforeseen consequence.<br /><br />(A part of me hopes they're having to work DAMN long hours to sort through what they've put in place to fix bugs and continue the clean up. They earned it.) <br /><br />There's a rose colored set of glasses I keep around for times like these. Would love to believe that Google had more heart than to cause this kind of upheaval in one short time span. Can only keep working away and watch to see if things improve. <br /><br />Good luck to you!DesertDwellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09011734578240016285noreply@blogger.com
