# Sites where “dune” is a top search keyword

One site on record lists “dune” among the searches that send it the most visitors, by traffic estimates. It is searched about **1.5M** times a month on Google, worldwide (Google Ads, Sept 2026), at about $0.44 a click in search ads: a month of its searches would cost about **$660K** as search ads. Each site checked on the [backlink value checker](https://mxverify.uk/backlink-value) adds its top five search keywords, so this list grows as sites are checked.

How much searching there is and what advertisers pay for it.

| --- | --- | --- |
| Searches | 100 | 1.5M a month · weight 40% |
| Year | 50 | +0% since Oct 2025 · weight 20% |

**20** /100 · Ranking ease, hard

How open Google's first page is: 100 minus its difficulty and strength.

| Keyword difficulty | 35 | 65 of 100 (US) · weight 50% |
| First-page strength | 5 | median Ahrefs DR 96 · weight 50% |

### What to do with it

- Strong demand but a hard first page (ease 20): aim at its related searches first and build links before the head term.
- Google answers part of it in an AI Overview: the pages it cites get a link above the results.
- The listed sites take 0% of its searches: most of the traffic goes to sites not on record here.

A business score needs your own figures (conversion, deal value) and is not made here. Scores are fixed formulas over the figures shown; they are not Google's.

Listed A–Z. A top search keyword is one of the searches that bring a site the most visitors, by estimate. It is not a position in Google, and the order here is not a ranking. Visits (est.): the traffic estimate's own figure for the keyword on that site, which behaves like visits a month, not an amount of money (2026-09-29: it had been shown in dollars). Ad value is what advertisers pay for the keyword — its searches × cost per click — not how hard it is to rank for. This page is kept out of search results until 15 sites share the keyword.

Searches, cost per click and ad value above: Google Ads, worldwide. Sites and their visits: third-party traffic estimates, Sept 2026. The traffic estimates' own searches figure for the keyword is in the section below; the two sources often differ several times over.
