Why Using ChatGPT is Detrimental for Search Marketing
Although there any many positive benefits for ChatGPT; as it pertains to digital marketing – particularly SEO, there can be detrimental consequences. Here’s why…
It’s Content That Lacks Substance
Although it may be eloquently written, much of the content provided within ChatGPT is redundant at best. It will appear ‘thin’ as per search marketing requirements, leading to little benefit for your site.
It Includes Some Black-Hat Tactics
‘Keyword stuffing’ is known as black-hat tactics. This type of practice was once used as a means to rank high in a search. However, search engines, such as Google, are wise to such hacks, and websites can be penalized using this approach.
It Provides Impersonal Content
A machine will write content that lacks personality because – that is exactly what it doesn’t contain, a personality. Writing to a specific audience requires knowledge, tone and depth, all of which a knowledgeable writer will speak to on behalf of your brand.
It Replicates Content
Searching for similar key terms can result in duplicate content on various websites. This is something search engines also frown upon, and it ends up giving little-to-no value to users.
It Provides Inaccurate Data
ChatGPT is not an all-knowing intelligence. It is merely and chatbot from which to generate ideas. Despite it sounding accurate, this is not always the case. Accuracy and being a trusted source of information is highly important for SEO purposes, and something AI does not currently or consistently generate.
