Combined share held by these 9 domains
Overall ChatGPT citation volume dropped 23.3% from July to August, so every domain in this set was going to show some decline in raw mentions. The useful comparison isn’t “did it drop”, it’s “did it drop more or less than that 23.3% average”.
Platform and marketplace sites gained share in August. LinkedIn rose 73%, YouTube 92%, and Amazon 23%. Meanwhile, Forbes and TechRadar declined more than the overall average of 23.3%. Reddit was the exception. Despite being a major community-driven source, its share dropped, matching the broader decline in ChatGPT’s use of Reddit content seen in mid-August.
Editorial and trade press lost the most ground. Forbes and TechRadar each dropped 22 to 29 points past the average decline.
Everything else held steady or gained. Wikipedia, Business Insider, and Reuters barely moved, all within a few points of the baseline, while Amazon, LinkedIn, and YouTube each gained more than 20 points against it.
