These rankings show market share in the organic channel. Organic traffic score measures the estimated monthly clicks based on ranking position, search volume and click‑through estimate. It’s the closest proxy for how much demand each site captures from Google.
High traffic scores show which competitors own high volume search terms. If you’re chasing growth in “lingerie” or “underwear”, you need to analyse the search strategies of these market leaders.
Which lingerie brands have the strongest brand awareness?
Brand awareness combines monthly searches with social engagement. These five names dominate:
- Victoria’s Secret: 450 000 searches, social score 153 750
- Boux Avenue: 301 000 searches, social score 1,250
- Lounge: 110 000 searches, social score 4,228
- Intimissimi: 33 100 searches, social score 11,062
- Triumph: 49 500 searches, social score 7,334
Owned social score considers followers and engaged conversations on all major social platforms. A strong owned audience now influences SEO more than ever—brand queries feed Google’s entity understanding, soften the impact of core updates and now, social content such as TikTok videos and Instagram reels are starting to be pulled into the SERP!
High search volume shows brand recall. Substantial social reach builds trust and share of voice. If you lag here, invest in digital PR and community content.
