Google Trends for Websites, now available
Posted by Manuela Barreto @ June 24th, 2008 in Search Engine Optimization
Just recently Google Trends decided to go a bit beyond the usual keyword platform and instead has adapted it a bit more towards SEOs, webmasters and site owners by launching its new feature, the Google Trends for Websites. Its a useful tool that allows you to see how popular your favorite site is, by giving you the estimate number of visitors over time.
Google website trends is entirely free, however, in order to see the actual figures you must be logged in your account, otherwise it will only give you the time period without the number estimates.
The other good thing is that you can compare amongst sites. The tool allows you to choose up to 5 websites to compare and the system will give you the estimate of unique visitors to each site on graph charts by also showing you each site’s popularity according to region, as well as other similar searches made by users. View or click example below.
One last tip folks, and not surprisingly, Google is not willing to give out any stats regarding any of its own properties. So forget about looking up google, youtube, orkut, etc. Nice try, but no cigar.
