ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In a sudden and devastating turn of events, two of Google's core updates in Q3 2023 have wreaked havoc on TravelinCoupons.com, plummeting the website's traffic by a staggering 80%. The impact has been particularly harsh for this family-owned website, which had been a source of passive income for a dedicated mother for eight years.

Key Points:

  • Despite Susan Frese's dedication and recent investment of approximately $40,000 to update the site, the core updates have left her with more questions than answers.

  • Her fight for justice and website recovery underscores the need for accountability and support for those impacted by these updates.
