I'd like to talk about what we've been seeing, what the top sided website by ChatGPT is now and how this might affect you if you're trying to be recommended by ChatGPT. We track the citations of large language models like ChatGPT for about 30 of our clients.

One thing you'll notice when you do this is that the citations vary wildly between industries. For most of our clients, Reddit isn't the number one source, but it's almost always in the top 10 and for a few clients it really is 50% or more of the citations heard.

Across all industries, Reddit makes up about 14% of citations historically. Yesterday I went through all 30 clients and for almost all of them Reddit dropped by about half in mid September.

So that begs the question, who's the number one cited website now? Reddit.

It's still Reddit...
