6. Quora and Reddit Most-Cited Sources in Google AI Reviews

Via Business Insider: Reddit is the 2nd most-cited source in Google AI Overviews, but that might not mean much for its bottom line.

Reddit’s relationship with Google is complicated.

The social media forum, which went public last yearand is under pressure like never before to attract advertisers and turn a profit, has recently enjoyed priority status on Google Search.

And now that Google has launched its AI Overview, a natural language synopsis of search results at the top of the page, it seems its preference for citing Reddit remains.

Analytics firm Semrush shared data this month on how AI-powered search is affecting traffic. It found that Reddit is the second most-cited website in Google AI Overviews, following Quora.

“Quora and Reddit users often ask and answer niche questions that aren’t addressed elsewhere. Making them rich information sources for highly specific AI prompts,” the study’s authors wrote. “Reddit may also perform well because Google has a partnership with Reddit and uses Reddit data to train its systems.”

Reddit and Google entered a partnership, worth a reported $60 million, in 2024 that allowed Google to train its AI models on Reddit’s content. Google said the deal would “facilitate more content-forward displays of Reddit information.”
