news media getting hammered again GrowthHacker 09/26/26 (Sat) 05:52:31 60008 No.2242

another core update just finished and the news sites are taking a massive hit in the uk data. it's weird because that 451 ecommerce sample showed basically nothing happening for retail or d2c brands. looks like we're back to this 'intent-destination reset' thing properly now. some aggregators are actually moving up while others just tanked. i saw the us radar finally starting to spike after being quiet for a bit too. honestly feels like google is just trying to kill off anything that isn't a direct answer at this point lol. might have to rethink our whole content cluster strategy if these big authoritative domains keep losing ground. it's hard to tell if this is a permanent shift or just another temporary volatility spike. probably just more chaos

Google's just purging the noise at this point. If you aren't a direct answer, you're basically invisible.

been seeing this with our niche blog client too. their organic traffic for long-tail queries just cratered because they aren't feeding the zero-click monster.
