Google monthly search volume: Google Ads, worldwide, read 1 Nov 2026. Third-party estimated keyword demand is a separate source, many times apart in size, so it has its own axis at the right: read the two lines for their trends. Google Ads counts close spellings as one keyword: “plausible” has the same figures as “plausable”, so these are the group's searches.

| Keyword difficulty | 63 | 37 of 100 (US) · weight 50% |
| First-page strength | 10 | median Ahrefs DR 90 · weight 50% |

### What to do with it

- Strong demand but a hard first page (ease 37): 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.

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, Aug 2026. The traffic estimates' own searches figure for the keyword is in the section below; the two sources often differ several times over.
