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: “twitter” has the same figures as “tw”, so these are the group's searches.

What to do with it

Treat it as a brand search: Google answers “twitter” with the brand's own pages, so a third-party page competes for what is left; Google's related searches show the angles people take: “X (Twitter com login)”, “Twitter apps”, “Twitter com web”.
Study x.com: it takes 92% of the listed sites' visits from “twitter”; its report shows which of its traffic comes from search.
Watch techcrunch.com: it gained most visits from it last month (74K → 106.6K).
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.
