Why do we only see 30-day Programmatic SEO wins and never 1-year results?
Posted by on March 14, 2026 at 12:01 pmSerious question: has anyone here run programmatic SEO long enough to know what happens after the initial spike?
LinkedIn is full of “30-day programmatic SEO wins”, but I almost never see 6–12 month follow-ups.
Does the traffic actually sustain, or does it get wiped out by updates / indexing decay over time?
Curious to hear real case studies backed by data.

Because in the LinkedIn cesspool, people are laser-focused on trying to shill you their short-term solutions. “I’ll fix your SEO over a timeframe of a year” doesn’t sell as well.

For us, our pSEO product hasn’t been live for a year yet.
For this client, our program has been live since Sept 2025 so here’s 6 months of data.
We have our pSEO product rolled out to about 5-6 clients with similar growth results.
But it hasn’t been easy – we’ve learned a lot along the way, have pivoted, made updates, broke things, fixed things, etc.

One of my agencies first programmatic projects was just over a year ago, it compounded over time. Just has to been done right from the start

If they weren’t trying to scam you, they wouldn’t be sharing this on LinkedIn.

There are a few subreddits where I have these petty wars with people doing this saying exactly what you said. Show the site, keywords, 6 months. Ah the fun
