  8. Did you write the article yourself or you hired someone to
    do it? I was wondering because I am a site owner too and
    struggle with writing new content all the time.

    Someone told me to use AI to do create articles which I am kinda considering because the output is almost written by
    human. Here is the sample content they sent me – https://sites.google.com/view/best-ai-content-writing-tools/home

    Let me know if you think I should go ahead and use AI.
