Miles explains
Judge this line on the year, not the last dot: visits are 40% below a year ago, and 67% below the December 2024 high. One site winning or losing a ranking can swing a single month a lot.

Miles explains
Name searches are the number I trust most. They are down 9%, and nobody types a site’s name by accident, so this shows fewer people coming back on purpose.
