What the data says

Demand is down on the year, now levelling off: Google searches for “yahoo news” fell 33% (6.1M to 4.1M) from Oct 2025 to Sept 2026; the last three months averaged 4.1M, 19% below the three before.
The listed sites' estimated visits from “yahoo news” (2.1M a month) exceed its 817.1K searches: the estimates count visits from close searches too, so the listed sites take most of its traffic, not more than all of it.
From Aug 2026 to Sept 2026: yahoo.com lost most (2.6M → 2.1M).
At $2.28 a click (Google Ads), the listed sites' 2.1M visits a month from “yahoo news” would cost about $4.9M as search ads. That is what the traffic would cost to buy, not what it earns.
The two sources differ about 5 times for Sept 2026: Google Ads counts 4.1M searches, the traffic estimates 817.1K. Read each for its trend, not as an exact count.

What to do with it

Treat it as a brand search: Google answers “yahoo news” with the brand's own pages, so a third-party page competes for what is left.

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.
