Here's How Sites RECOVERED From Google's September and March HCU (August 2024 Core Update)

Useful Links:

The August 2024 Core Update is already showing some intriguing recoveries, with sites bouncing back after the September Helpful Content Update and the March Core Update. Early signs suggest that those focusing on high-quality, topic-specific content, combined with strategic content reworks and pruning, are seeing the best results. Interestingly, even with the changes, monetization strategies remain intact for many. While it’s still early, these trends could be key for understanding how to navigate future updates. Staying true to solid SEO fundamentals seems more important than ever.

So then what's the point of having a website when you can't monetize it? :D genius

Hey, Chris!
I've been trying to contact you via the email from channel's description, but haven't got any response yet. Is there any way to discuss advertising inquiry with you?

Something to note Chris, Google talks about the fact that word count doesn't matter and they don't count words on a page....so SEO's should understand that MANY searches do not want to read an article....they want to get to a page that answers a question in a VERY concise manner (sometimes just a few sentences are fine). These types of pages have gained notably through both the March and August update. We see customers that simply answer their customers' questions and publish those (just the question and answer on a page)....the current data shows those landing pages growing 5x since March....and we saw those pages were 9% of the customer's organic traffic before March. So, we'll see where everybody ends up over the next couple months...but the world needs to redefine what is "unhelpful" content vs what satisfies the search intent. Many times shorter is better.

Awesome insights and easy to understand - Thanks.
As mentioned in your video, I did the export from GSC and everything with less than 30 clicks are mostly navigational pages and not really blog posts - I'm presuming they are ok to leave as is? (fyi Travel website and the navigation is countrys/states, citys)
Apart from that, I have a few blog posts only published in the last few months, so should I be averaging their count for the 12 months period?
With everything else, Would it be ok to Deindex instead of deleting and redirecting?
