Fluent writing is not fact checking
Google's 2023 guidance emphasizes content quality rather than the production method. It does not endorse inaccurate mass-produced copy.
A generated description may casually add parking, a view or a round-the-clock reception because they fit the story. Natural wording does not establish that the service exists.
Separate the responsibilities
- An editor makes the explanation clear.
- An information owner verifies local facts.
- A publisher checks the final page.
One person can perform all three roles in a small team, but all three checks still matter. Retain sources alongside the claims they support.
Run a short quality check
Underline every concrete service, time and number. Clarify or remove anything without a reliable basis. A shorter accurate description helps guests more than a seemingly complete invented offer.
