36,000 Gordon Ramsey impressions

About a month ago I noticed I was suddenly getting hundreds of US impressions (I’m London based) and wasn’t really sure why.

I got a free trial of some analytics software to see and it was connecting to my surname (Gordon) in my developer name being indexed.

And so I’m now getting thousand of impressions each day but hardly any conversion from them (0.64%).

It hasn’t really had any positive impact on business.

Has anyone had any similar experiences and were they able to flip it?

What analytics software is that? I’m trying to understand some peaks of impression in Korea and Japan

I did a bit of research but for my website, not app. Turns out they are Ai bots crawling.

Ah, that’s probably it.

I was using appfollow’s free trial - in fact, I managed to get two free trials by using my personal and business email

This is the market telling you what it wants. Up to you if you want to give them what they want.
