Google Trends is definitely one feature that the statistic loving Internet marketer is going to love. While it is currently still in testing, it looks as though Trends is basically very close to completion. Providing a search term receives or has received enough searches in the past, visitors can enter this term into the Trends page and be presented with a graphical representation of the number of searches that have been conducted over the past 24 months or so.
While this gives some very useful information on the patterns of particular terms, it unfortunately doesn’t provide any actual figures. Whether this will change when Google Trends goes live or not remains to be seen. In the meantime, though, there is some relatively useful information to be found.
Pick a topic relevant to your own site and look at the search trends. If you find that the topic you searched for is depleting in searches then look for alternatives. Of course, be careful to use another tool to ensure that changing is the sensible thing to do.
Alternatively, if you’re just interested in discovering the rise or fall in popularity of specific terms then go to http://trends.google.com and give it a try. Whether it will become one of Google’s biggest successes remains to be seen although it is unlikely.
