2How many people visited
In plain words: These sites got more visits from Google than a year ago (+3152%), and October 2026 was a better month than September 2026 (+16%). Allo, which takes 95.7% of all the visits, accounts for most of the rise (98% of it). Without it, visits would be up 101.9% on a year ago instead of up 3152.2%. Allo made most of the move in October 2026: it gained 29,348 of the market's 30,183 visits; without it, visits to the other sites rose 9.9% on September 2026.

Miles explains
Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 3152% 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.

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 35%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.
4Where the visitors live
About 40 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.

The five most-visited sites take 99.4% 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
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.
