02 · What you can borrow
Twine SEO Keywords, Sitemap Pages & AI Referrals
Twine’s acquisition moves across pages, search terms and AI referrals, each with its data source.
Search · source keywords — Non-brand terms bring 6.1% of search traffic
Non-brand terms are traffic anyone can compete for; higher CPC means higher commercial value.
| Keyword | Traffic | CPC | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|
| twineUnclassified | 40.6K | $0.84 | 1 |
| twine gamesNon-brand | 1.3K | — | 2 |
| twineryBrand | 1.2K | — | 3 |
| twine game engineNon-brand | 850 | $1.93 | 4 |
| twine game makerNon-brand | 560 | — | 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
2.6K visits from AI assistants (previous month 3.6K), 0.8% of all traffic.
