Miles explains

Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 71% above a year ago, and 0% below the September 2026 high. One site winning or losing a ranking can swing a single month a lot.

People typed a site’s name into Google 81% more often than in October 2025 (+81%). That is the loyalty number, because nobody types a name by accident.
