2How many people visited

In plain words: These sites got more visits from Google than a year ago (+13%), and October 2026 was a better month than September 2026 (+21%). Salesforge gained more visits on its own than the whole market gained in a year. Without it, visits would be down 4.8% on a year ago instead of up 13.2%.

Miles explains

Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 13% above a year ago, and 56% below the January 2025 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 15% more often than in October 2025 (+15%). 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 15%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows more people coming back on purpose.

4Where the visitors live

About 20 of every 100 visits come from the United States. Outside the US I measure 7 countries one by one; the largest is India.

Miles explains

The US is the biggest single market, but only about 20 in every 100 visits. India alone is 72.4% of the countries measured outside it.

5The most-visited sites

Apollo.io gets the most visits, Apollo.io is the name people search for most, and AiSDR is the highest-placed tracked site on Google for “ai sdr”, at position 3. The five most-visited sites take 90.9% of all visits.

By worldwide search visits

By US brand-name searches

Miles explains

The five most-visited sites take 90.9% 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 Salesforge (+329%); the steepest fall was at Reply.io (-60%). Big swings are usually one site winning or losing one Google ranking.
