What is Google Trends, and how does it work?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Google Trends has been running since 2006. It\u2019s a large database which gathers keywords and top searches from the largest search engine in the world, making them available for public use.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, it\u2019s a tool that offers input for the strategic creation of content that is in line with the interests of users and that truly delivers value.<\/span><\/p>\n

To gain these benefits, you can search for specific terms (and compare them to each other), search by topics like countries or regions and periods (with data gathered in the past hour or since 2004). You can also perform searches of keywords by category (like travel, health, or science), or by type of search on the Web, in images, news, shopping, or on YouTube.<\/span><\/p>\n

In exchange, Google provides a horizontal chart of Interest over time, which is scored from 0 to 100, where 0 means there isn\u2019t enough data about the keyword, and 100 represents the peak of the term\u2019s popularity.<\/span><\/p>\n

More information is provided just under that chart, like sub-regional interests (states or cities), topics, and related searches.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Google Trends\u2019 first page, you will also find the most popular topics of the world, most recent stats, and articles that detail the top searches of each year since 2001.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After reading this far, you can already tell how essential Google Trends is in a content producer\u2019s daily work life. But it doesn\u2019t end there!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
