Is my traffic real?
Third-party tools guess your traffic from clickstream samples. Search Console counts your actual clicks. Enter both and see how big the gap is.
Enter both numbers to see how far your estimate is from reality.
Third-party tools estimate traffic from clickstream samples and modeling — they're often off by 30–80%. Search Console is your own measured clicks, which is why RealRank ranks on it and nothing else.
Why estimated and verified traffic disagree
SimilarWeb, Ahrefs and Semrush don't see your real traffic. They model it — from browser-extension panels, clickstream data, and keyword-ranking math — then extrapolate. For big sites the estimates are directionally OK; for small and mid-size sites they can be off by 30–80% in either direction. Google Search Console, by contrast, is Google's own count of the clicks your pages actually received from search.
Which number should you trust?
The verified one — every time. It's the number you can show an investor, an acquirer, or a partner without a caveat. That's the whole idea behind RealRank: a public leaderboard where every site's traffic is pulled straight from its own Search Console, so nobody can pad the numbers. Read the deeper dive →
