Frequently asked questions

What data does Similarweb Insight add to my sheet?

It enriches each domain with site name, title and description, global, country and category rankings, estimated monthly visits, bounce rate, pages per visit, time on site, a breakdown of direct, search, social and referral traffic, top countries, and top organic and paid keywords. A status column shows whether each enrichment succeeded.

Do I need a Similarweb API key or browser extension?

No. Similarweb Insight works entirely inside Google Sheets with no extension, no code, and no Similarweb API key required. It adds the data automatically next to your URLs.

How do I find high-potential leads with Similarweb Insight?

Filter for active, engaging sites by combining metrics, for example monthlyVisits over 10,000, bounceRate under 40%, and pagesPerVisit above 3. That shortlist points to companies that are likely in growth mode and worth prioritizing.

Can I use it to spot struggling websites?

Yes. If you run a growth or SEO agency, look for sites with high traffic but low time on site to find poorly optimized pages with strong potential. That gives you a clear, data-backed angle for a prospecting message offering to help.

How can I combine Similarweb Insight with other Derrick features?

You can pair it with LinkedIn enrichment to add persona context to the company data, use topKeywords to match your cold emails to the prospect's own audience language, and sort by countryRank to find local leaders. This turns raw traffic data into targeted, data-driven outreach.
