SEO has come full circle, again
This is down on HubPages now. I hope to have it up again on Medium soon . . . (thanks for reposting @thehaikutec.bsky.social )
I few years ago I wrote a tongue-in-cheek guide to writing literary haiku called "How to Write Bad Haiku."
It also has a picture of the late great Jabberwok, who was tortoiseshell with white patches, and whom I miss.
Enjoy!

I deleted all of my work off HubPages, and I found a counterfeit of my work on its niche page Owlcation. This is a serious problem.

It's not just LinkedIn Pulse, Medium, Reddit, HubPages, etc.... you can also get "cited" in AI Overviews by linking to your article on Pinterest.
Definitely not Site Reputation Abuse though. 😅

It's mostly republished from the almost defunct HubPages. I will take it down from there soon, but you can read it by searching "KrisL Chiyo-ni"

Not only can pages with manual actions appear in AI Overviews, but forum posts on HubPages in 2011 or Quora in 2014 can also appear there.
Just some things to keep in mind when you hear marketers share their magical ranking factors for appearing in AIO 😅

Hey @searchliaison.bsky.social - curious if Google has any plans to mitigate the extensive AI-generated spam coming from sites like Quora, Hubpages, LinkedIn Pulse, Medium, etc. where spammers use AI-generated responses to link to and highlight their own products and services?

I really wonder if/when Google will decide to crack down on the blatant AI-generated spam (and in my opinion, extensive 'Site Reputation Abuse') happening on Quora. (And other UGC sites)

I find it ironic that HubPages' SEO visibility is exploding when its authors' article feeds often look like this.
Same exact thing that got thousands of publishers trouble with core updates, spam updates, scaled content abuse, and site reputation abuse.
