The new unneeded content doesn't make the site more appealing to advertise on, instead it exists purely to satisfy arbitrary standards set by Adsense. I feel you've missed the point of the article
- bruce511 2y agoI get it. The unnecessary content games the Adsense algorithm, convincing it that the site now has value as a "place for adverts". That, in itself, is not actually a win. There would need to be traffic, clicks on ads, and so on to be a win. There's no evidence (either way, it's simply not mentioned) if the site actually makes any revenue from the ads that are now on it. Perhaps the automated Adsense algorithm was correct "the original site isn't a good ad site" - and the mistake is that it can't see what "seems" to be true to us, which is that the new site is no better.
