2How many people visited

In plain words: These sites got more visits from Google than a year ago (+2759%), and September 2026 was a better month than August 2026 (+164%). Allo, which takes 95.4% of all the visits, accounts for most of the rise (98% of it). Without it, visits would be up 79.8% on a year ago instead of up 2758.8%. Allo made most of the move in September 2026: it gained 112,361 of the market's 114,727 visits; without it, visits to the other sites rose 39.1% on August 2026.

Miles explains

Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 2759% above a year ago, and this is the highest month in two years. One site winning or losing a ranking can swing a single month a lot.

3How many people went looking

People typed a site’s name into Google 35% less often than in October 2025 (-35%). That is the loyalty number: nobody types a name by accident.

Miles explains

Name searches are the number I trust most. They are down 35%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.

4Where the visitors live

About 47 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.

Miles explains

The five most-visited sites take 99.6% of all visits. When one of them gains or loses a big ranking, the whole market total moves with it.

6Who grew and who shrank

No tracked site with at least 5,000 visits a year ago grew; none fell. Big swings are usually one site winning or losing one Google ranking.
