Beyond Reddit and Quora: Many Forums Saw Explosive Growth Based On Google's Hidden Gems Update

Описание к видео Beyond Reddit and Quora: Many Forums Saw Explosive Growth Based On Google's Hidden Gems Update

With Google's hidden gems update in the fall of 2023, both Reddit and Quora surged like crazy. Although many are focused on the surge of Reddit, with good reason, it's important to understand that many forums surged in the fall of 2023. I have covered this heavily on X over time. So I just ran the visibility numbers for 97 forums I'm tracking across verticals. The percentage change year-over-year was wild. 88% of the forums saw 100% growth or more. And a number saw 1000% growth or more. In this episode I also show several screenshots of forums that surged since the fall of 2023, while also explaining that several have seen drops recently with the volatility we have seen this summer (as we lead up to the next core update). Those sites are still up big-time YOY, but they have seen a downturn recently. Is that a foreshadowing of what's coming for those sites with the next core update? We'll find out soon.
