2How many people visited

In plain words: These sites got more visits from Google than a year ago (+33%), and October 2026 was a better month than September 2026 (+3%). Pippit, which takes 61.3% of all the visits, gained more visits on its own than the whole market gained in a year. Without it, visits would be down 37.7% on a year ago instead of up 33.1%. Pippit gained more visits in October 2026 (147,773) than the whole market did (75,839); without it, visits to the other sites fell 7.4% on September 2026.

Miles explains

Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 33% above a year ago, and 12% below the February 2026 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 6% more often than in October 2025 (+6%). 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 up 6%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows more people coming back on purpose.

4Where the visitors live

About 9 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.
