Google Reduces AI Overviews + A New Challenge is Born...

If you've been following any SEO news lately, you'll know that the roll out of AI Overviews by Google has been less than stellar.

When an AI is giving hilarious answers it's one thing...when it starts giving dangerous answers, it's another thing.

The situation got so bad last week that the VP of search had to issue a public statement with a response to the backlash from AI overviews.

As a result, Jared and I featured this story in today's episode of This Week in Niche Pursuits News right here.

In addition to diving into what it means for publishers that AI overviews have gone from 84% to just 15% of queries, we cover other industry news, share some updates on our side hustles, and even share a couple of weird niche sites.

During this episode, I also reveal that I'm working on a BRAND NEW 30 day challenge.

The challenge?

I want to try and make $1,000 from a new Facebook page in 30 days.

As of today (Day 4) I'm up to 818 followers and its growing quickly.

I share all of my strategies during today's episode right here.


Want to See My Facebook Page?

As part of my "build a FB page and make $1,000 in 30 days" challenge, I'm keeping the page and my website private...for most people.

I AM revealing my page and my website for this project inside my private Niche Pursuits Community.

In fact, I just recorded a call yesterday with the community and that call recording is now in the members area where I talked about this new project and shared the page, etc.

You can join the Niche Pursuits Community right here.

Oh, and I should mention that if you own Link Whisper, I have a special deal for you on the community.
