Based on a comment to a recent post, I realise i could well improve SEO performance by enhancing the page content.
Hence I would ask what would I expect to pay pay for an expert copy writer that could provide a more professional result.

I have paid attention to obvious matters such as key words, heading and calls to action but I am sure a professional could easily do much better.

There are a zillion things you need to sort before worrying about your content.

For example, I’ve just looked at your site and clicking on the mk4 trap takes me to the staging site!

What you need is a website review. Find out what needs fixing and then pay for the necessary help.

While you may have paid attention to these elements, you are lacking some on-page & meta SEO fundamentals. As well as some very important UX problems.

@fisicx is correct, lots to fix before content writing.

Making progress and below half a zillion now.
Still worth getting the site reviewed. You have a whole load of of basic SEO and structural issues. Plus all the conversion blocks.

    You could get ChatGPT to do it, or even better the $20/month version, ChatGPT Plus.

    That would be an extremely risky strategy. I would definitely agree that chat GPT is useful when brainstorming content ideas, it definitely shouldn't be used to publish content in a copy/paste manner. Certainly not for SEO purposes.

    Google have said that they consider articles written by AI/bots to be spam, and against their guidelines.

    The problem isn't the content. It's the whole site structure. Fix that (and the long list of other issues) and they won't have a problem.

    Nonsense, they can't identify AI generated content.

    Paul.

    John Mueller is on the Search Team at Google. He outlined how Google perceives and acts on AI-generated content in this interview. He very specifically claimed that Google can detect AI-written content.

    Interview With John Mueller

    Here is the official guidance from Google on how AI can be used to generate good quality and useful content;

    Google Search's guidance about AI-generated content

    There are many studies online which show how Google (or anyone else) can detect AI-written content. University and College lecturers are now using these tools to check student's work isn't AI authored, so it would be foolish to believe that Google doesn't have it's own mechanisms.
    Just purely out of interest, if you ask ChatGPT 'Is AI content good for SEO', it will give you the following....which sums it up....

    "Ultimately, the success of AI-generated content for SEO depends on the quality, relevance, and ethical implementation of the content. It is important to maintain a balance between utilizing AI technology and ensuring the content meets the needs of users and aligns with search engine guidelines."

    .... So please use Bard instead of ChatGPT :)

    Same question asked of Bard:

    AI content can be good for SEO, but it depends on how it is used. If AI content is used to create high-quality, informative content that is relevant to your target audience, then it can be a valuable tool for improving your SEO. However, if AI content is used to create low-quality, duplicate, or spammy content, then it can actually hurt your SEO.

    Here are some tips for using AI content to improve your SEO:

    • Make sure the content is high-quality and informative. AI content can be very good at generating text, but it is not always good at creating content that is truly informative and helpful. Make sure to proofread the content carefully and make sure it is accurate and up-to-date.
    • Make sure the content is relevant to your target audience. AI content can be used to create content on a wide variety of topics, but it is important to make sure the content is relevant to the people who are most likely to be interested in it. Use keyword research to identify the topics that your target audience is searching for, and then create content that is tailored to those topics.
    • Make sure the content is original. AI content can be used to create original content, but it is important to make sure the content is not plagiarized. Use plagiarism checkers to make sure the content is original, and give credit to the original source if you use any copyrighted material.
    • Use AI content to supplement your SEO efforts, not to replace them. AI content can be a valuable tool for improving your SEO, but it is not a magic bullet. You still need to do the other things that are important for SEO, such as building backlinks and optimizing your website for search

    Bard Q.
    Is bard better than chatgpt for SEO content

    A.
    Bard and ChatGPT are both large language models that can be used to generate text. However, there are some key differences between the two models that can make Bard a better choice for SEO content.

    • Bard is trained on a larger dataset of text and code. This means that Bard has a better understanding of the world and can generate more comprehensive and informative content.
    • Bard is better at understanding and responding to natural language queries. This means that Bard can be used to generate content that is more relevant to the user's search intent.
    • Bard is better at avoiding plagiarism. Bard has a built-in plagiarism checker that can help to ensure that the content is original.
    Overall, Bard is a better choice for SEO content because it is more comprehensive, informative, and original. However, it is important to note that both Bard and ChatGPT are still under development, and their performance may vary depending on the specific task.

    There are many factors to SEO and any changes made to improve it will take time, there is no quick fix.
    Choosing the correct keyword(s) is vital and what competition you have for it.
    Site structure as mentioned and quick loading and mobile compatibility all make a difference not just what is written although that is a very important factor.
    Do not rely on AI programs like Chat GPT, they are useful for idea generation but not for content as it does not distinguish between what is fact or fiction.
    As someone above said, "Use AI content to supplement your SEO efforts, not to replace them."

    Google have said that they consider articles written by AI/bots to be spam, and against their guidelines.
    from spiceworks website:

    "Conclusion: Using AI content generation tools is not against Google’s policies. However, avoid publishing automatically-generated SEO-optimized content from AI/automation tools. Instead, leverage them to create only the essential parts of your content, review them, and then use the content to create high-quality and helpful posts for your audience."
