Acquires the customer, last
The broker acquires the customer. The affiliate captures the influence.
THE PROBLEM
You Pay To Create Demand. Third Parties Collect It.
Most CFD brokers spend heavily on paid acquisition, SEO, and brand building. Then a user searches your own brand name, a review, or "best CFD broker", and meets someone else first.

DEFINITION
What Is SERP Leakage?
IN PLAN TERMS
SERP leakage is the loss of potential customers to third-party websites that rank above or alongside your brand in search results. In CFD markets, this often means affiliates capture users before they ever reach your site.
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE
Affiliate sites ranking in the top position
Review sites ranking above your own brand
Comparison platforms intercepting commercial intent
Brand searches that surface third parties first
WHY IT MATTERS
This Is Not An SEO Issue. It Is A Revenue Control Issue.

Higher CAC
02

03
Increased Affiliate Dependency
04
Reduced Brand Control
05
Invisible Revenue Loss
When affiliates rank above your brand, you depend on distribution you do not own.

COMMON QUESTIONS
How This Is Different
We already have an SEO agency.
This is not a ranking audit. It is a SERP ownership analysis. It sits alongside SEO work and looks at who intercepts users before they reach you, not where individual pages rank.
​
We already know our rankings.
Rankings do not show who intercepts users before they reach your website. Two brands can rank in the same position while losing very different amounts of intent to third parties around them.
​
We work with affiliates.
Affiliate partnerships and SERP ownership are different issues. The analysis simply shows where your brand is being intercepted, so you can decide what is intentional and what is leakage.
See Where Your High-Intent Traffic Is Leaking
Vicious Marketing helps CFD brokers identify where affiliates, review sites, and comparison platforms intercept users before they reach the brand, exposing hidden traffic leakage and opportunities to regain SERP control.
No generic SEO reports. SERP-level visibility only.
