Engaged visits from December 2025, the first month with data, to September 2026: 482 → 1,470, up 205%. There is no year-over-year because there is no year yet: Google Analytics and Search Console both begin in December 2025.

Wins

Watch

Suspected bots (desktop, one place, 20+ sessions, under 5% engaged): 330 of 3,546 sessions — Singapore 192, China 104, unknown location 34. August 2026: 154. They stay in sessions, users and page views; engaged visits leaves them out by nature. Nothing is dropped.

Google listing counts are for our current listing only, both months. The old duplicate listing was merged into it, and its share can no longer be read.

Do this next month

Each one comes from a number on this page, so you can disagree with the advice without doubting the data.

  1. Push “christian church miami” onto page one. It was seen 68 times at position 10.8; sharpen the page's title and opening answer and link to it from a related post.
  2. Find out why form submissions fell from 60 to 18. Check that every form still sends, and whether last month had a one-off sign-up.
  3. Cut more Shorts like “Honor the Sabbath and watch what happens”: people watched 108% of it on average, the best hold of the top five.
  4. Promote the Spanish sermons: 4 dubbed sermons drew 29 views in their first week. Share each one in Spanish on Instagram the day it goes up.
  5. Refresh “Should Christians Support Israel? What the Bible Actually Says”: it still brings 93 readers a month, 94% from Google. Add a clear next step at the end so those readers can find a Sunday.

Posts with no reads in the month are left out.

Each video counted over its first seven days on YouTube, so an early Sunday has not had longer to collect views than a late one. Shorts are the clips cut from that Sunday. Blog reads are page views of that week's two posts within the month.

Listing numbers are the Business Profile Performance API for the surviving listing. Rank is Google's average position in Search Console for that exact search, where lower is better; a search we were not shown for is left out. Reviews are not in either API, so the count is the last check of the listing and carries no change.
