Let's play a game. These are ad+affiliate-supported "informational/niche" sites Blue Xs = Google winners Red Xs = Google losers Give me a URL of a site that fits this profile, and without telling you what the axes mean, I'll show you where it lands on this chart

Interesting. Almost straight down the middle. Should note: "losers" in this chart = sites that lost ~99% of traffic.

TIL the plural of axis is "axes" :)

Scared to run this one because not sure if HouseFresh breaks the model or validates it :) Guess I'd expect it to be lower - on the other hand none of the losing sites here saw any recovery whatsoever - so maybe that means something
