02 · What you can borrow
AthenaHQ SEO Keywords, Sitemap Pages & AI Referrals
AthenaHQ’s acquisition moves across pages, search terms and AI referrals, each with its data source.
Search · source keywords — Non-brand terms bring 6% of search traffic
Non-brand terms are traffic anyone can compete for; higher CPC means higher commercial value.
| Keyword | Traffic | CPC | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| athenahqBrand | 5.7K | $7.34 | 1 |
| athena hqBrand | 2.5K | $3.56 | 2 |
| athena aeoNon-brand | 340 | — | 3 |
| athenahq'sBrand | 210 | — | 4 |
| athenas aiNon-brand | 190 | — | 5 |
Borrow: Search traffic is mostly branded, riding existing awareness; the non-brand needs it does not cover are open to you.
AI referrals · ChatGPT, Copilot… — AI referrals are early — not a growth source yet
0 visits from AI assistants (previous month 0), 0% of all traffic.
Borrow: No need to follow yet; watch whether it scales next month.
