The lists appear with an image, an estimate of the number of searches and a short description with links to relevant news articles to help you find out more about why these topics are “trending”:
So why wait? Check it out for yourself at Hot Searches and let us know what you think of it. © SEOptimise - Download our free business guide to blogging whitepaper and sign-up for the SEOptimise monthly newsletter. Google Introduces ‘Hot Searches’ in Google Trends Related posts:
