Heads up, everyone! Google just rolled out its August Core Update, and things are getting interesting. Keep an eye on your websites, as Pat has noticed some significant changes in page 1 visibility over the last month.

Reddit's been making waves, with a 5% bump in visibility. Speaking of which, forums have been a hot topic in the industry lately, given their impressive growth over the past year. Pat's tip: don't underestimate the power of user-generated content – it's going to be crucial moving forward.

In big news, Google has officially been declared a monopoly. Tune in to hear Pat's thoughts on how this might impact search. He'll also dive into the Newzdash Study, which shows Google sending more discovery traffic but less search traffic to publishers.

This month, Pat covers -
