Google announces "product reviews update" + How to spend $5k to grow your website

Yesterday, Google announced something that could potentially be pretty big for affiliate websites.

They announced the "product reviews algorithm update".

This update started rolling out yesterday and will be fully rolled out over the next 2 weeks.

Specifically, its said to reward sites that provide more in-depth reviews with great analysis as opposed to just lists of top products and thin content.

Of course, alot is still left up to interpretation and no one knows exactly what will happen until the update is fully rolled out.

Google says this is not a "core" algorithm update, but is its own "product reviews update."

I'll share any additional findings I notice over the next couple of weeks.


How Would You Spend $5,000 on Your Website?

A few weeks back I posed the question in the Niche Pursuits Facebook group. The question was:

"If I gave you $5,000 today to grow your website, what would you do with the money?"

Over 150 comments were added to the thread. Some of you had some pretty detailed and great ideas. While others ideas maybe were a bit outlandish.

But one thing was consistent. Content and Backlinks. Here is a word cloud of all the responses.

NP Responses to What would you do with $5000 to grow your website?

The larger the words the more often they were mentioned in the comments of the post.

Words like Content, Writing, writers, write. appeared more than any other content.

A lot of people also asked for my advice in the comments. Well every website is different, but creating more content is usually a great path to go by.

And if you are thinking about investing in creating content, one option to consider is Hands Off Publishing.
