How to read this index
Similarweb rank is total visits in Cooking & Recipes for August 2026. The free list stops at 50. Ranks 51–69 are paywalled and are not invented. Ranks 70–99 are only the rows Similarweb printed on its trending page.
Visit figures mix Semrush, Similarweb ranges, and sitestatsdb organic estimates. They are not one metric. An organic number can be larger than another vendor’s total.
▲ is a better rank than the previous month. Stickiness is pages per visit × minutes on site × (1 − bounce). It is a reading aid, not a quality score.
