Understanding Programmatic SEO

Programmatic search engine optimization involves using automated processes to generate numerous optimized web pages targeting long-tail keywords, enhancing visibility on search engines. An example includes a travel website that creates multiple pages for various cities, such as 'hotels in Paris' or 'hotels in Rome,' using templates and data for quick deployment. With advancements in AI, some sites are now utilizing AI-generated content, allowing them to produce thousands of pages efficiently. This shift has raised concerns over content quality, as many argue AI-generated pages can lack originality and value.
