How to use this report

4 ways to use these figures
  • Price check. BV puts one new followed link from claude.ai at $148 (level C): $74 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $185 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A quote far above $185 for a level C link pays for what BV does not measure. · Backlink value · what this means
  • Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 90 / 100; it is an AI assistant, not a publication: the links it gives are listings, profiles or user posts (level C). The spam score of its links is 7 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not claude.ai's own. · How BV is worked out · what this means
  • Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Aug 2026 estimate: 950.2M monthly visits, 12% from organic search (117.4M). Visits rose 0.4% from Jun 2026 to Aug 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “cloude”, about 2.1M a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's. · Traffic in detail · what this means
  • AI assistant visits. 2.7% of its visits in Aug 2026 came from AI assistants' answers, about 25.6M (visits, not citations); ChatGPT sent the most in Aug 2026, 80% of them. The split moved a lot between months (ChatGPT from 43% in Jul 2026 to 80% in Aug 2026): read it as a snapshot, not a trend. · AI assistants · what this means

How BV is worked out

Site Strength 90 / 100 · level C · each factor and link type

A followed editorial link from claude.ai would be worth up to $1,477 under BV 2.7, before relevance: its Site Strength is 90 out of 100. The link it usually gives is a listing, profile or user post (level C), since claude.ai is an AI assistant — worth about $148 — and relevance to the site it points to moves that between $74 and $185.

Site Strength
90 / 100, in steps of 5 · half the site's authority rating, half its organic traffic on a log scale; 100 is the strongest site on the web. Traffic: 117.4M estimated monthly organic visits, as of 30 September 2026.

claude.ai is an AI assistant, not a publication: nobody buys or earns an article on it, so the links a site can get there are listings, profiles or user posts — level C. The table below lists the links it can give, and what each is worth.

Ad value: what a month of the keyword's searches would cost as search ads (searches × cost per click) — what advertisers pay for it, not how hard it is to rank for. Visits (est.): the traffic estimate's own figure for the keyword on this site, which behaves like visits a month, not an amount of money. Each keyword opens the list of sites where it is a top search keyword.

AI assistants

AI assistants sent about 25.6M visits in Aug 2026 — 2.7% of all visits. Each assistant's share of those visits, by month:

Limitations: what this report does not show

4 stated plainly
  • No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
  • A link that is followed is not necessarily a link search engines value; this record does not measure rankings or traffic.
  • The BV score is what one new followed link from claude.ai is worth to rankings, from its Site Strength and the kind of link on offer. It is not a price, and it does not predict what a link will do for a particular site: relevance to that site moves it between half and one and a quarter times.
  • Traffic figures come from a third-party traffic source, named with its date in the evidence box above; no one outside a site sees its analytics.
