A model, not a\n  counter: it ranks sites against each other well, and says nothing about\n  direct, paid or social visits. Cite it as an estimate, with the month.\n\nASK FOR THE WHOLE LIST\n  Estimates change monthly and are held for everyone, so a domain asked about\n  this month already is answered from store. Domains not held are bought\n  together in one request — one call with two hundred domains costs a small\n  fraction of two hundred calls.\n\nNULL IS AN ANSWER\n  `monthly_visits: null` means DataForSEO has nothing for the domain: almost\n  always a very small site. It is not an error, and asking again this month\n  returns the same null.\n\nStudies:\n  estimate \u003cdomains\u003e\n      estimated monthly Google organic visits and ranked keywords for each domain\n\nJSON to stdout, so it composes: pipe to `jq` to pick a field, or `\u003e /tmp/…` to keep it.\nRun a study with no arguments — `traffic estimate` — to see what it takes.\n","example_command":"traffic estimate harney.com,glencore.com,mortenson.com","example_output":"","cost_class":"upstream-fetch","tier":"metered","billing_items":["web_traffic_request","web_traffic_domain"],"price_per_1k_calls":0.1,"price_is_from":true,"status":"available","commands":["traffic"],"studies":[{"call":"estimate","about":"estimated monthly Google organic visits and ranked keywords for each domain","args":[{"name":"domains","positional":true,"list":true,"hint":"comma-separated domains or urls, up to 1000"},{"name":"location_code","positional":false,"list":false,"hint":"2840 United States (default), 2826 United Kingdom, 2356 India"},{"name":"refresh","positional":false,"list":false,"hint":"true to buy again this month"}]}],"default_enabled":false,"first_seen":"2026-10-14T08:29:09.354491Z","enabled":false}
