I can't stop thinking about these three graphs from Similarweb's report last week. And what they really mean, together, for how we should prioritize marketing work (and product design) 👇

If you think AI tools are ethically shady, you have a moral duty to check out Ahrefs research from last week showing how to effectively spam your way into AI mentions with self-promotional "best of" lists 👇

Is Google taking news publishers' traffic away? Sweet mother of media, are they ever. From 2023-2025, referrals from search dropped by almost HALF. Brutal. Insulting. Infuriating. And ironic given that Google is certainly training its AI answers on publishers' work. 🙄

Umm... marketers... why aren't we helping more brands appear in AI answers? We know how LLMs work. We know how to influence their responses. We know how to do this kind of PR. What gives?
