New Ahrefs research finds just three sites account for 76% of Google's 'Discussions and forums' links worldwide. Reddit appears in 83.9% of results — surprisingly its lowest share in two years, though it is already growing again in August. The analysis also covers whether new forums and subreddits can rank, and how much backlinks help individual threads. A useful market signal for SEO/GEO and community content strategies.
