On May 21 Google officially released their May 2026 Core Update. And if history repeats itself, many sites will likely see significant volatility over the next few weeks. Core updates are becoming increasingly tied to:
This is especially important right now because Google’s AI-driven search experiences continue expanding alongside traditional rankings. That means visibility shifts may not always look like simple ranking drops anymore. You may see changes in:

12 years of listening to the internet (Today, we say thank you)
Hey Keysia, Twelve years ago, AnswerThePublic was built on one stubborn idea: that the internet was already telling us what people wanted to know, if anyone bothered to listen. The first time I used it, I got it. Here was a tool that actually listened. Every question, every "how to," every "vs," every quiet 2am search someone typed when they didn't know who else to ask. It turned all that noise into a map. Twelve years on, AnswerThePublic does something it couldn't do back then. It doesn't just tell you what people are asking. With Content Studio, it helps you answer them, turning a wheel full of questions into deep research and ranking-ready content without ever leaving the platform. Listen, then create. That is the AnswerThePublic I always believed in. So for our 12th anniversary, I want to give you two gifts. Both open today, June 1st. Gift one, for everyone: a limited-time credits boost. For the whole anniversary window, I am boosting them for every plan. Starter jumps to 60, Growth to 350, Business to 800. More research, more articles you can put out, and you pay exactly what you pay today. Gift two, if you go Yearly: 4 months free. Lock in a year of AnswerThePublic during the anniversary and four of those months are on me. A special offer, just for June. Both unlock today for a limited time. No code to enter, nothing to claim. Just log in. Get your 4 months free + Bonus I will show you exactly what to do with all of it over the next few weeks. Talk soon, |

SEO isn’t dead, but it is evolving fast (upcoming webinar)
You’ve probably noticed something strange lately. Your rankings may still look stable… …but your traffic isn’t. That’s because discovery is changing. People are searching through ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Reddit, TikTok, Perplexity, and Gemini without ever clicking a website. Search is no longer just about ranking pages. It’s becoming about visibility inside AI-generated answers. Next week, I’m breaking down what this shift actually means for marketers and what companies need to do right now to stay visible. The Future of SEO: AEO, GEO & AI Discovery Strategies That Actually Work Tuesday, June 2 at 8 a.m. PDT We’ll cover:
If your team is still measuring success mostly through rankings and clicks, this session will help you prepare for where discovery is heading next. Register now to save your seat. Cheers, Neil Patel P.S. The future winners in search won’t necessarily have the most traffic, they’ll have the most trust, visibility, and influence. If you need help with that, let’s talk! |

Google just revealed the new SEO playbook
At Google I/O, Google showed where Search is headed next: AI-generated answers. Intelligent search agents. Dynamic search results built in real time. Which means one thing for marketers: Getting cited by AI systems is becoming just as important as ranking. And while there are many similarities, the signals that drive AI citations differ from those in traditional SEO. We recently surveyed 100 content marketers to understand what actually makes content citable by AI systems. The top factors weren’t backlinks or keyword density. They were:
