As far back as I remember, I always wanted to be a ga..... - oh that's something else (Sorry :) )

Let me start again;

As far back as I remember, here at WA, they (Kyle&Carson&Jay) have always emphasized providing good-quality content when writing articles and reviews.

You've probably noticed that Google has been rolling out several updates recently.

As of Nov 8th, 2023 08:59 PST, there is a new review update.

Everyone who writes reviews should be aware of the short post where Google suggests how to write high-quality reviews.

So, without taking up any more of your time, here is a summary of what Google suggests:

Evaluate from a user's perspective.
Demonstrate your expertise and knowledge about the product or service you are reviewing.
Provide evidence, such as visuals or audio, to support your expertise and reinforce the authenticity of your review.
Share quantitative measurements about how the product or service measures up in various categories of performance.
Explain what sets the product or service apart from its competitors.
Discuss the benefits and drawbacks of the product or service, based on your own original research.
Include links to other useful resources to help readers make a decision.
When recommending something as the best overall or the best for a certain purpose, include why you consider it the best, with first-hand supporting evidence.
