Reply To: Final Report for Build a NEW Site with AI Challenge!

Hey all! Congrats on sticking out the 6 month challenge 🙂 What a turbulent time with the Google updates to be trying such a thing! Was so interesting to try and test, it really helped me to stick with something for 6 months (lol) but I did wish I changed my idea from the get go. Thanks for putting the challenge together Spencer.

My POD Site is growing in terms of impressions (800 for March) but only 9 clicks. I’m happy to see some kind of trend and growth though – even if it’s so tiny! I did buy some backlinks but never saw a huge uptick from that (I don’t think) and could definitely be doing more to get links and the brand name out there. I did some Pinterest, but nothing came from that at all. AI was really great for some ideas, but think I’ll stick to using it mainly for blog ideas and that first level thinking in future. I agree with Jen above, I’m kind of put off the content now and really see the value in human-written articles.

Well done to whoever wins, looking forward to seeing the outcome!
