Brand-name searches leave out 11x and Artisan: the name is shared with an ordinary word or another product.
2How many people visited
In plain words: These sites got fewer visits from Google than a year ago (-42%), and September 2026 was a weaker month than August 2026 (-14%). Artisan made most of the move in September 2026: it lost 4,651 of the market's 7,272 visits; without it, visits to the other sites fell 8.4% on August 2026.

Miles explains
Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 42% below a year ago, and 58% below the December 2024 high. 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 36% less often than in October 2025 (-36%). That is the loyalty number: nobody types a name by accident.

US searches a month for the counted brand names, summed. Google Ads data via DataForSEO, to September 2026.
Miles explains
Name searches are the number I trust most. They are down 36%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.
4Where the visitors live
About 39 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.

6Who grew and who shrank
No tracked site with at least 5,000 visits a year ago grew; the steepest fall was at Conversica (-73%). Big swings are usually one site winning or losing one Google ranking.
