BREAKING: The hand-curated vs auto-scraped split is widening
Multiple operators tell us the 'scrape everything' aggregators are getting hammered in the latest helpful-content passes, while smaller hand-tested code sites are holding rankings.
— Auto-scraped: scale to 50k merchants overnight, but ~30-40% dead codes drag your whole domain's trust signals down.
— Hand-curated: maybe 500 merchants, but verified codes mean low bounce, real dwell time, and reviewers who actually click 'copy.'
Why it matters: The middle path we're seeing work — scrape for discovery, human-verify before publish. Pure-scrape sites are the ones writing us about traffic cliffs.
