Searches, CPC and ad value: Google Ads, worldwide, its latest month, where it has the keyword; † third-party traffic estimates where it does not (the two often differ several times over). 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.

Read from videogameschronicle.com/robots.txt on 12 November 2026. robots.txt is a request that crawlers choose to follow; a site can also refuse crawlers at its server, which this card does not see. Google's AI Overviews use Googlebot, so Google-Extended does not affect them.

Third-party traffic estimates. BV uses only the organic-search figure.

Potential display-ad revenue $2,100–$8,300 a month (estimate) · what it rests on

**$2,100–$8,300** a month, estimated

- 3.6M pageviews a month: 2M visits × 1.8 pages per visit (Oct 2026)
- Niche: Gaming, from the topics of its articles · entertainment and news page RPM $1–$4 per 1,000 pageviews
- 48% of visits from the US, the UK, Canada and Australia; other countries counted at 20% of the rate

An estimate from modelled traffic and niche benchmarks, not what the site earns. It does not know which ad networks the site uses, how viewable its ads are or how many a page carries. Not the keyword table's ad value, which is the whole market's search-ad spend. Worked out Nov 2026; worked out again on the 10th of each month.

Server and network a CDN edge, shared by unrelated sites

Its domain was registered in 2019.

mxverify looked up videogameschronicle.com's address: it is served through Cloudflare (CDN), a content delivery network. Its address is shared edge infrastructure used by unrelated sites, so it cannot show who else runs on the same server, and sharing the network is no sign of a connection.

Cloudflare (CDN) fronts millions of unrelated sites, so sharing it says nothing about who runs a site.

Limitations: what this report does not show 3 stated plainly

- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- A CDN address is shared by unrelated sites, so it says nothing about ownership; no neighbours are listed for it.
- videogameschronicle.com gives more than one kind of link (A 33% · B 67%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $628 and a guest or sponsored one $314, before relevance.
