And what were the overall test results?

It's likely that Google didn't take any manual action. There was no report in Google Search Console, and the two-phase traffic decline made us skeptical that there was any manual action.

We observed this pattern repeatedly with pure AI content: Traffic is delivered quickly with consistent profits week after week. The traffic then peaks, followed by a rapid decline. Another spain mobile database prime example is Casual.app. In this “SEO heist,” a competitor’s sitemap was removed and over 1,800 articles were generated using AI. Traffic followed the same pattern. It rose for a few months. Then came a pause and then a drop of about 25%. And what happened next? A crash that took out almost all traffic. As far as the SEO community is concerned, there is some debate as to whether this drop was a manual intervention due to all the profit coverage it received. We believe the algorithm worked.

Perhaps even more interesting was the study of LinkedIn’s AI “collaborative” articles. These AI-generated articles created by LinkedIn invited users to collaborate on corrections, additions, and fact-checking. Top contributors were rewarded with a LinkedIn link for their efforts. As in the cases mentioned above, the flow of new arrivals rose and then fell.
