Was I always half decent, or did Google get smarter?

I've been writing content originally and high quality for a long time now.

Only after 8 years in the game, I'm finally able to target traffic and rank for terms I'm looking to rank for. This includes my past work in the last 2 years.

It begs me to ask, does google value my content now / or are they getting smarter? Or have I became better at targeting traffic? Orrrrr.... has google devalued the cheaters?

What's the deal? I felt I was at a disadvantage early in the game because I didn't game the engines with keyword stuffing and spamming. I don't know, hindsight right?

I feel like things are turning around for the little guy.

BTW, I'm nobody in the industry, I haven't made enough to be bragging or anything but I have noticed things working keyword targeting wise based on original content that finally ranks.
