This was a really fun and fruitful undertaking. Thanks, Spencer!
We definitely were hit by the algo changes (but later than many others have been). However, as planned and expected, I could take away interesting test results, process improvements and knowledge wins.

Good tips from Troy above!

OK, here we go…

Site metrics took an unexpected (and unhappy) pause in growth. Users 169 (basically unchanged from 168), Total Organic 144 (-19%) and GSC Clicks 93 (-27%) respectively. Total posts are at 121, up from 96. Sprint 3 is well underway as we also continue making improvements on existing articles.

It all went into a press release, which yielded over 300 links. Yay. And I’m now going public with the site, so you can check it out. 😅

Total posts are at 79 and rising, up from 51. We also continue to make improvements on existing articles. Overall average position is ~31.8 (down a bit from 29).

We are learning lots and refining SOPs so.. that’s a win, regardless. Good luck, all!

Very few clicks but G knows we exist and is getting to know the site. I have not hit all my personal goals but the team is doing great and I’m feeling pretty good! Lots planned for November.

But maybe an AI being biased actually makes it more human.🤔

Re the specific artwork in question, was it modern or something with history? I can imagine the LLMs having no clue about modern artwork, but they should certainly do OK with old masters, etc.
