Back when the web was simple, before all the crazy Google animal updates started, you'd...
- search for something and all the sites on the first page would be relevant to your query. Now all you get is authority sites that happened to mention the keyword you searched for once in their 5,000-word article.
- click on a website you like and get the information you sought in a succinct 400-500 word article. Now you have to sift through 5,000 words to get the information you want.
- build a simple website with just 10K-20K words and rank for a profitable keyword, making you $2K+ per month. Now, 50K words isn't even scratching the surface.
- read and enjoy lots of case studies and ranking experiments from other internet marketers on the same journey as you. Now there's hardly anyone doing case studies or any form of testing because SEO is no longer fun.
- could rank on page 1 in 2 months or less. Now you'd be lucky to get there in 6 months.
I could go on and on. Google has made SEO so f*cking boring. Nowadays, SEO is just a boring anxiety-inducing sweat fest. You could wake up one morning and find out that all of your hard work has gone down the drain because a Google engineer didn't get a blow job from his wife last night.
Penalizing sites on a whim has turned SEO into a nightmare. Back then people were excited building their first website, writing their first article, getting their first visitor, getting their first $100 day...now I hardly see that anymore. They've made it so difficult that even if you eventually achieve success you're so drained of your energy that you can't celebrate, a situation made worse by the knowledge that you could lose it all in one day. Jesus! Google is so f*cking annoyingly disgusting!!
