2 Month AI Challenge Leaderboard! + SEO News...

Can you believe that it's already been 2 months since we started the "Build a NEW site using AI Content" challenge?

Back in late September, I had 134 participants start a new site from scratch with goal of getting as much organic traffic as possible in a period of 6 months.

Well, we are now 2 months in and I have the full leaderboard reports right here!

A couple of people are approaching 10,000 visitors a month from organic sources already!

Are they publishing TONS of AI content? Are they taking a more targeted approach?

You can see the full results PLUS their video updates with strategies right here.

I'm excited to see what happens over the next 4 months...


Google Search Team Deletes Tweets about the Helpful Content Update

Jared and I sat down to talk SEO news, side hustles, and share a couple of "weird" niche sites.

First, it was revealed that John Mu and Danny Sullivan (both official Google Search liaisons) deleted tweets essentially saying that they don't think the helpful content update would ever be rolled back.

Their tweets were a couple of months old, and there's been TONS of blowback surrounding the Helpful Content Update.

What does all of this mean, well you can listen to our full discussion on this news right here.

Jared and I also give an update on our Amazon Influencer side hustles; including earnings, and how many videos we've published.

Here's my last 30 days earnings, for those curious:

As usual, we finish off the episode with a couple of weird niche sites.

Go ahead and listen to the full Niche Pursuits News episode right here.

I hope you have a great weekend!

Thanks again,

Spencer
