Why the page charts Google Search
A live store rank is not a keyword series, and the App Store Top Free snapshot at August 30 2026 06:01 UTC still has to sit beside the 261-week Google Search curve rather than replace it, because rank 5 is a board position while 52 is a 0-100 weekly index. The same board put ESPN Fantasy Sports & More at #5, up from #10 on the August 25 2026 snapshot cited on the prior version of this page, next to ChatGPT at #1 and Vinted at #2.
YouTube for espn fantasy printed 82 on August 29, plus 82.22% over 7 days from 45 and plus 382.35% over 30 days from 17, a ranking-video spike that also clears the mover bar. This page already stores google search, and that source still prints +73.33% over 7 days and +420.0% over 30 days, with 261 weekly points and last-52 week-over-week sample standard deviation 34.31%. Mixing the YouTube 82 with the Search 52 would invent a story the APIs do not tell. Same-day Google Search neighbors: college gameday 63 (+1160.0% over 30 days from 5), gofan 100 (+900.0% from 10), sleeper fantasy 46 (+411.11% from 9), fantasy football 53 (+341.67% from 12), nfl 20 (+122.22% from 9), nba 2k 86 (+50.88% from 57).
