Oh and the rumors about ehow (demand studio)
DS is doing just fine on front page results after this update. People were also unnecessarily spreading rumors about LSI/LSA for this update. Many scrapers sites(which i discussed here on forum) got removed/moved but not all, they're just moving them to page 10 onwards and still keeping them indexed. No big change as expected from this update of google.
Okay it's 3:37am here, i'm off to sleep.

New Google algo change (Oct 10th) - A good one for me!
Looks like Google made another algo change earlier this week. My traffic rose about 25% on my main HP account around this time, so I'm guessing the update was the cause. My traffic is still low by historical standards (down by more than a third from the start of the year), but I...

Is there a way the editors or ourselves can put in place protection for our published content against future copyright infringement and AI tools that take content from various sources without crediting it? Thanks.
