Deception by Google? A Small Publisher Tells All...

A couple of weeks ago, Google held what they called the "web creator summit".

They invited about 20 small publishers to Google headquarters to get feedback from these creators.

For the most part, these bloggers and creators had been hit by the Helpful Content Update.

One of those creators at the meeting was Morgan McBride.

She went from making more than $300k a year from her website to a 75% drop in traffic overnight.

Her story is painful. Her story is real. And she's on the Niche Pursuits podcast today to share it all.

Listen to Morgan's story and her insights on the Google Creators Summit Here.

If you recall, we did release an interview just last week with Jake Cain to share his perspective on the web creators summit...and his perspective was quite different from Morgan's.

She calls it "gaslighting" by Google.

She says the Google engineers don't really know how Google works.

The bloggers had to teach the engineers how Google was actually impacting their websites.

To say the least, this interview is a little more "spicy".

I highly recommend that you watch, read, or listen to Morgan McBride's full interview today right here.
