Google is facing a tough time as the search giant is dealing with a lot of problems.

Problems with Google's Gemini project is also causing frustration.
A recent poll shows that most SEO experts are not as fond of Google as they once were. Barry Schwartz conducted a survey on social media. He found that nearly 67.9% of SEO experts like Google less than before. While 25.6% feel the same about Google as they always did. Only 6.5% like Google more now. The survey had 1,769 responses. This is a significant number of people.
The way people see Google has never been worse. In over 20 years of watching the company, the amount of complaints and negative comments about Google is surprising. There are many reasons for this dissatisfaction. Google's search quality is a big problem. Despite promises to improve, many businesses have suffered. This isn't the first time, as updates like Florida in 2003, Panda in 2011, Penguin, and the Medic update have all caused issues before. There's also been a lot of negative media coverage because of the Department of Justice's findings.
