2How many people visited

In plain words: These sites got about as many visits from Google as a year ago (-2%), and October 2026 was a better month than September 2026 (+5%). Final Round AI, which takes 57.4% of all the visits, lost more visits on its own than the whole market lost in a year. Without it, visits would be up 100.9% on a year ago instead of down 1.8%. Final Round AI gained more visits in October 2026 (17,541) than the whole market did (11,583); without it, visits to the other sites fell 5.4% on September 2026.

Miles explains

Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are about level with a year ago, and 48% below the January 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 31% less often than in October 2025 (-31%). 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 31%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.

4Where the visitors live

About 42 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.

The US is the biggest single market, but only about 42 in every 100 visits. India alone is 76.7% of the countries measured outside it.

Miles explains

The five most-visited sites take 98.4% 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

The fastest grower in a year was lockedin-ai (+150%); the steepest fall was at Sensei AI (-37%). Big swings are usually one site winning or losing one Google ranking.
