Readiness Assessment
Current Performance
- You rank for 50k organic keywords and drive about 445k monthly organic visits (≈$502k in equivalent ad value), but traffic is highly concentrated on the homepage (~319k, 72% of organic traffic).
- Brand demand dominates: “gemini” alone drives ~55% of keyword-attributed traffic; other brand-led terms include “gemini credit card” and “gemini crypto.”
- Authority is solid at 55 with ~1.3m backlinks from ~22k referring domains—strong credibility, but not yet translating into broad non-brand keyword coverage at scale.
Growth Opportunity
- You’re materially smaller than the leader: Coinbase drives ~2.9m monthly organic visits and ranks for ~484k keywords (you’re ~6x behind on traffic and ~10x on keyword footprint), signaling a large addressable search market.
- Expand beyond brand into repeatable, high-volume non-brand clusters where you already show traction: price pages (“bitcoin price,” “xrp price,” “solana price”), crypto prices hubs, and “how to buy” pages (e.g., “pepe coin”).
- Your content engine is there (hundreds of Cryptopedia and Blog URLs), but most traffic sits in a few URLs—systematically scaling templates + internal linking could spread demand capture across thousands of long-tail queries.
Assessment
You have strong brand-driven visibility and a credible link profile, but your organic growth is constrained by over-reliance on the homepage and limited non-brand coverage. The competitive gap is mainly scale, which makes this a meaningful traffic growth opportunity if you invest in systematic content expansion. AirOps can help you build and maintain those content clusters programmatically to close the keyword footprint gap.
Competition at a Glance
Across 2 direct competitors (Coinbase and Kraken), Gemini’s organic search visibility is currently smaller in both reach and total traffic.
Gemini ranks 3rd in monthly organic traffic (445,437 visits) and 3rd in ranking keywords (50,275 keywords) among the three sites compared. The market leader is Coinbase, with 2,862,673 monthly organic visits and 484,285 ranking keywords.
Overall, the competitive gap is primarily one of search coverage/scale: top players appear to win by being discoverable across far more search queries, which translates into materially higher traffic. Gemini’s position suggests a strong foundation in converting rankings into visits, but the broader market presence is currently concentrated with the largest platforms.
Opportunity Kickstarters
Here are your content opportunities, tailored to your domain's strengths. These are starting points for strategic plays that can grow into major traffic drivers in your market. Connect with our team to see the full traffic potential and activate these plays.
Create a massive library of programmatic landing pages that answer whether specific assets are available in a user's country, state, or city, providing localized onboarding steps. This targets the massive gap in geo-specific long-tail keywords where competitors currently dominate.
Example Keywords
- "buy bitcoin in New York"
- "where to buy solana in Germany"
- "crypto exchange Texas for xrp"
- "how to buy ethereum in Singapore"
Rationale
Users frequently search for crypto availability based on their specific jurisdiction. By providing localized eligibility and funding information, Gemini can capture high-intent traffic at the exact moment they are looking to sign up.
Topical Authority
Gemini already maintains 261 asset price pages and over 860 educational Cryptopedia articles, establishing a strong foundation in asset-level and 'how-to' intent. Expanding into geo-intent is a natural progression for a regulated exchange.
Internal Data Sources
Utilize internal 'Areas of Availability' databases, jurisdiction-specific legal disclosures, and Support Center data regarding localized funding methods (ACH, SEPA, etc.).
Estimated Number of Pages
50,000+ (Mapping 261 assets across hundreds of global countries, US states, and major cities)
Develop a comprehensive directory of pages matching specific assets with payment methods and banking rails. These pages reduce user friction by clarifying exactly how to fund an account using specific financial instruments in different regions.
Example Keywords
- "buy bitcoin with bank transfer"
- "SEPA crypto exchange deposit"
- "buy ethereum with ACH"
- "how to withdraw crypto to bank account UK"
Rationale
Funding is the primary friction point for new crypto users. Providing clear, indexable guides for every supported payment rail captures users who have already decided to buy but are searching for the 'how'.
Topical Authority
The high organic performance of the Gemini Credit Card page (~25k monthly visits) proves that Google associates the domain with transaction-enabling intent beyond simple education.
Internal Data Sources
Leverage Support Center articles on funding rails, internal fee tables, and regional product availability rules to provide uniquely accurate technical details.
Estimated Number of Pages
20,000+ (Covering 261 assets across 10-20 payment methods and regional rail variants)
Generate programmatic fee-explainer and calculator pages for every tradable asset, tailored to different product tiers and order types. This targets bottom-funnel users who are comparing exchange costs before committing to a platform.
Example Keywords
- "bitcoin trading fees"
- "maker taker fees solana"
- "crypto exchange fee calculator xrp"
- "gemini withdrawal fee for eth"
Rationale
Cost transparency is a major conversion lever. By owning the 'fee' keywords for specific assets, Gemini can route users directly into the appropriate product (Exchange vs. ActiveTrader).
Topical Authority
Gemini's existing /fees and /activetrader-fee-schedule pages already rank for head terms; expanding to asset-specific long-tail queries leverages this established relevance.
Internal Data Sources
Use live fee schedules, market metadata from docs.gemini.com (symbols and minimums), and internal tier logic to ensure calculators are always accurate.
Estimated Number of Pages
5,000+ (Covering 261 assets across multiple products, order types, and volume tiers)
Create a scaled library of staking-specific pages that detail APY, risks, and tax considerations for every supported asset across different jurisdictions. This addresses the massive search volume for passive income opportunities in crypto.
Example Keywords
- "stake solana on gemini"
- "ethereum staking rewards apy"
- "best place to stake cardano"
- "staking rewards tax guide crypto"
Rationale
Staking is a primary driver for asset retention. Providing detailed, asset-specific staking data helps capture users looking for yield who might otherwise go to competitors like Coinbase or Kraken.
Topical Authority
With a dedicated staking product and over 800 educational pages, Gemini has the necessary 'Cryptopedia' authority to rank for complex technical and financial staking queries.
Internal Data Sources
Integrate staking product configurations (supported assets, reward variables, payout cadence) and legal staking agreements for differentiated content.
Estimated Number of Pages
2,000+ (Covering all staking-eligible assets across various geographic and calculator variants)
Produce a programmatic library of 'operational intent' pages that explain how to move specific assets on specific networks, including memo requirements and confirmation thresholds. This targets users at the critical moment of moving funds.
Example Keywords
- "deposit usdc on polygon gemini"
- "withdraw ethereum via arbitrum"
- "solana memo tag required"
- "sent crypto on wrong network recovery"
Rationale
Operational errors are a leading cause of support tickets and user churn. Providing clear, indexable instructions for every asset/network combination captures high-intent 'ready-to-transact' traffic.
Topical Authority
Gemini's 261 price pages and deep technical documentation (FIX/REST/WebSocket) provide the technical credibility needed to rank for network-specific operational queries.
Internal Data Sources
Use the internal supported networks matrix, address format rules, confirmation thresholds, and the existing /error-codes documentation.
Estimated Number of Pages
10,000+ (Mapping 250+ assets across multiple supported networks and transaction scenarios)
Improvements Summary
Rewrite above-the-fold sections to answer the query in 40–60 words, then add “Quick answer” boxes, comparison tables, and 6–10 FAQ entries per page to target featured snippets and PAA. Expand missing subtopics, refresh titles/meta for higher CTR, add Article/Breadcrumb/FAQ schema where appropriate, and tighten internal linking with hub pages and related-article modules.
Improvements Details
Prioritize high-volume pages and map keywords directly: “solana vs ethereum”, “bitcoin for dummies”, “what is crypto market cap”, “amm crypto”, and “crypto liquidity pool”. Add format-first upgrades (exact-match H1, TOC with jump links, early comparison table on vs pages, diagrams like market cap formula and AMM pricing curve) plus depth upgrades (FDV vs market cap, impermanent loss with numeric example, AMM vs order book, ASIC vs GPU mining, custody threat models and decision tree). Create 6–10 supporting articles (e.g., impermanent loss, slippage, AMM vs order book, market cap vs FDV) and connect them through 2–3 hubs (“Crypto Basics”, “DeFi Basics”, “Trading & Markets”) with contextual anchors from relevant product pages.
Improvements Rationale
Many target terms show meaningful volume but near-zero traffic share, which points to page-2 rankings driven by SERP format mismatch, thin topical coverage, and weak SERP feature capture. Snippet-friendly openings, tables, and FAQ sections make the content match how Google surfaces answers, while schema and cleaner structure support rich results and sitelinks. Hub-and-spoke internal linking and updated E-E-A-T signals (author/reviewer, citations, update dates) build topical authority and trust needed to compete for head terms.
