Google August Core Update RELEASED! HCU Recovery Guidelines
Manage episode 434610508 series 32869
Welcome back to another episode of the Niche Pursuits News podcast!
It’s been a very big week in the news, with Google taking center stage for several different reasons. This week, Jared and Morgan break it all down for us, and they also share the progress they’re making on their side hustles, and some weird niche sites!
Let’s jump into it!
The first order of business is Google’s announcement about its August core update, which the company has been teasing for some time.
Moving along, they talk about an article in the New York Times about how the US Justice Department is considering several scenarios after deciding that Google is a monopoly, including possibly breaking up the company.
Jared shares the timeline and the opinions of Duck Duck Go, and Morgan talks about what happened in the EU when Google was forced to give users a choice when installing their web browsers. It’s pretty surprising what she reveals!
They also talk about the ways this ruling could change the internet and which of the scenarios they’d prefer to see. Is Google really resting on its laurels, as Morgan says?
The next topic up for discussion is that Reddit investors are concerned about what all the traffic is doing to its stock price, as company shares have plummeted by 26%.
Why are they complaining about the traffic? Why are “logged in” users more valuable than “logged out” ones? How does Reddit’s current situation contrast with its attitude just a few weeks ago?
Then Jared and Morgan tie the Reddit news to Google’s announcement about its current core update. What do they predict might happen? Listen to the full episode to hear what they say!
When it’s time to talk about their side hustles, Jared comments briefly about the course he recently launched on the Amazon Influencer Program, but then dives into the newsletter he recently acquired, The Slice.
He shares his stats, such as open rates, ad earnings, and affiliate income, and his future plans for the side hustle.
He also talks about Creator Connections, in the Influencer Program, and shares his latest earnings.
Morgan then talks about her Amazon Influencer side hustle and shares her experience creating more polished videos for the program and the impact on her video clicks. She also shares a strategy she’s going to experiment with in the coming weeks.
Jared’s weird niche site comes with its own personal story this week: San Diego Sandcastles, which he discovered while at the beach with his family.
When it’s Morgan’s turn, she shares This Person Does Not Exist, which generates AI images of people who don’t exist.
This site has been around since 2021, and she shares some of its stats.
