In this episode, we focus on declining nonprofit website traffic due to AI search tools. Key points include:

  1. Nonprofit website traffic is declining as AI tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI overviews reduce the need for users to visit original content sources.
  2. Major content creators like HubSpot have lost up to 80% of their traffic due to these changes.
  3. We recommend:
    • Adjusting traffic expectations (considering "break-even" the new growth)
    • Focusing on conversion rate optimization

  • USAID funding cuts affecting humanitarian aid organizations and their life-saving programs
  • A success story about a Massachusetts movie theater saved by converting to a nonprofit model
