A huge post about how to create a Facebook business account without a personal account. The whole thing was filler text and ambiguous sentences like this

The internet is dying, but it is being killed!
wtf even is Birdeye? Our work e-mails have all been being spammed by them claiming we have bad reviews and they can help. I’ve been ignoring them mostly, but noticed the text of the reviews reek of being AI written and none of them show up on any of the review sites (that we keep track of anyway). Is this some LLM spam company basically?
“Yes you can’t, here’s how” is my new favorite sentence
It’s like a recipe! I want the ingredients and the way to prepare the meal with not so much preamble. I wish that these posts were short and functional OR used a story-like structure that makes me want to actually read them rather than skim them. And if they’re for instructions… don’t spread those instructions across a long article, please!
Obviously, google’s own friggen algorithm plays a role here as they have to do what the algorithm likes… but there has got to be a better way.
I would encourage anyone writing blogs like this to really think about why they’re making them. Is it ONLY to drive “Empty” SEO or is it to drive people to read the dang things? I would think they’d care more about time on the page and converting from readers to leads.
Overall looking at their product, I don’t think they would recommend their users make posts like they’re making here.
Is there a word for articles of this type? There’s all kinds of shitty how-to websites like this. For a while I was finding a ton that were obviously AI generated, too.
I wasn’t on Facebook to begin with but I also had to create a personal profile in order to make a bussiness profile. Not a huge issue in my case as I never put anything up on the personal one.
