In this episode, Mike and Dave evaluate the impact of Google's September 2023 Update on EcomCrew's and other websites, and talk about the new challenges that have popped up because of this update.
Ever since September 2023, ranking on Google as an affiliate site has been harder than ever.
We've seen websites (including ours) decline in organic views from 20% to 80%, while Reddit has started to rank for every keyword.
If Google continue towards this trend of giving big websites all the ranking juice, what happens to affiliate websites? And by extension, what does that mean for all digital media outlets?
Dave and I discuss all these topics and more in this episode. Here are some timestamps to help you along.
