Google trends

Go to www.google.com/trends and enter search terms in the usual way to see which counties are searching for what.

Interesting stuff

yeah it's great to see real time search trends. I use it to spot something early that might go big.

No, I have not, delighted to have an expert respond to this thread.

I am having some difficulty interpreting the results. When the search term "porn" is entered, the English language does not even feature in the top ten. Can you explain why?

the adlab database is intentionally un-adult friendly but you can still pull some jewels out of it... try trellian's free version. you can get the same graphs that google trends provides but with actual numbers and dates in the paid version.

NOW I see what you're saying and that's actually a really good question. I did a few other searches on adult terms that should have had high US traffic with the same results. hmmmm...going to have to research that one!

Yes, strange - and FYI #1 ranking Maltese is only spoken by about 372,000 people worldwide...

6. How does counting and ranking of the Top Cities, Regions and Languages work, and what does 'normalized' mean?

For counting and ranking cities, Google Trends first looks at a sample of all Google searches to determine the cities from which we received the most searches for your first term. Then, for those top cities, Google Trends calculates the ratio of searches for your term coming from each city divided by total Google searches coming from the same city. The city ranking you see on the page and the bar charts alongside each city name both represent this ratio. When cities' ratios are fairly close together, the corresponding bar graphs will be roughly the same length, and the exact ranking between these cities is less meaningful.

Essentially, all results from Google Trends are normalized. This means we’ve divided the sets of data by a common variable to cancel out the variable's effect on the data and allow the underlying characteristics of the data sets to be compared. If we didn't normalize the results, and instead displayed the absolute rankings of cities, they wouldn't be all that interesting. For example, New York city would be the top city for many results because there are lots of searches from there.

Keep in mind that instead of measuring overall interest in a topic, Google Trends shows users' propensity to search for that topic on Google on a relative basis. For example, just because a particular region isn't on the Top Regions list for the term "haircut" doesn't necessarily mean that people there have decided to stage a mass rebellion against society's conventions. It could be that people in that region might not use Google to find a barber, use a different term when doing their searches, or simply search for so many other topics unrelated to haircuts that searches for "haircut" make up a very small portion of the search volume from that region when compared to other regions.

Yes, I saw that but there is no reference to language.

Maybe it means that "porn" is searched for disproportionately more by surfers with Maltese browser settings?
