When google had started, no one could have predicted that it would one day make everyone
dependent on it.
Such is the power of Google today that it has given birth to many careers which involve
monitoring the activities on it.
And given that so many online businesses depend on it, here is a list of some of the most
searched for words on Google.
23.
Bikini – Well, it is enough to say that there are a lot of horny guys out there.
And even some women.
So it stands to reason that they would look up the internet for some pictures of hot bods
in beach wear.
And since the trends of posting pics on instagrams and facebook is really spreading like wildfire,
the searches are really not disappointing!
22.
BMI Calculator – And if bikinis are high on this list, can BMI calculators be really
that far behind?
We all want to look good and that means staying in shape.
And while there are umpteen reasons for delaying that gym regime, there is one thing that no
one can really resist: finding out how they measure in terms of body weight analysis.
And thus, the search for BMI calculators on google!
21.
Scrabble word finder – Now this was one search we did not think would be so common.
After all, scrabble enthusiasts are not really found everywhere.
But turns out, that supposition is not really true.
While we are all aware of the number of games that people play online, scrabble being one
of the most popular ones came as a surprise.
And what is even more surprising is that not only do they play scrabble, they cheat as
well by finding words online.
All's fair in love and scrabble then, is it not?
20.
Weather – Pretty obvious isn't it?
Everyone likes to travel and the one thing they almost always check before going anywhere
is the weather.
And not just for travel, weather is probably one of the most searched for keywords because
well, everyone loves to know whether or not to carry an umbrella!
19.
Translate – This is another word that we often use while on Google.
Of course, it is usually preceded by and followed by another language.
And we are pretty sure all of us have used this some time or the other.
For example, if you speak Spanish and there is that one word whose meaning you really
don't know in English, just google it and it translates it for you.
Pretty convenient right?
18.
Maps – One of the worst things that could ever happen to you is to get lost when time
is of the essence, like say when going for a meeting.
So, what do you do?
Just go to google and look at the map to ensure that you don't get lost on the way.
And while there is a dedicated app on most mobile phones for that which give you a live
update, there is no doubt that searching for the way before leaving is one of the most
common things we do.
17.
News – Who doesn't like to stay updated on the news.
After all, that is the only way we will be able to figure out what Trump did to make
a fool out of himself, isn't it?
Of course, there are other important things as well that you generally find out from news
and so it really isn't surprising that news would be one of the most searched for things,
is it?
16.
Calculator – We all have bills to pay.
And that too in a limited salary.
That obviously calls for some complex permutations and combination and hence, a calculator is
needed.
And why would you want to buy those clumsy physical ones when the internet can give you
a particularly convenient one?
15.
Youtube to Mp3 – Well, why would you want to buy music when you can get it for free
easily?
Converting videos on youtube into mp3s is an easy way to get good quality music without
paying anything.
And well, when you really have so simple an option, why would you ever go to itunes store?
14.
Dictionary – Ever so often we come across those big, heavy words which no one really
understands.
And the usual reaction is to go running to a dictionary to figure out what it meant.
But when the dictionary can come right at your fingertips, why bother ruffling through
the pages?
That is probably why dictionary is one of the most searched for words.
13.
Restaurants near me – Cooking might look like a soothing and peaceful task, but when
you get down to actually chopping onions, it doesn't really seem like such a calming
thing to do.
But then, you can't just blindly walk into a restaurant can you?
You need to figure out the cuisine, the quality and the price before you actually make a decision.
Which is why people often tend to search for restaurants near them to figure out where
they should head for a good plate of food.
12.
Speed Test – Gone are the days when we needed to hook a dial up connection to get on the
internet.
With broadband and fibre cable technology, internet speeds are just amazing!
But there are always moments when we feel we are crawling on the internet rather than
flying through it.
And so, we need to check the speed of the internet that we are getting.
And that is where a speed test comes in.
And given that it is one of the most searched for things on the internet, it is safe to
assume that the downtime incidents are more common than we thought.
11.
Cheap Flights – Thanks to the advent of Facebook and Instagram, all of us have vacation
goals.
Be it getting a beach body or the Mediterranean tan, we all love to post our fab holiday pics.
But as always, money gets in the way of actually realizing our holiday goals and so we often
search for cheap flights so that we can actually get close to realizing out holiday goals!
10.
Horoscope – While most people make it a point to be vocal about not believing in the
stars, secretly we all sneak a peek at our horoscopes to figure out if good things are
going to happen to us in the future.
And since it is easy to be caught looking at horoscopes when you rifle through them
in the papers, checking it on the net is much safer!
9.
Solitaire – The bliss of playing solitaire on computers is something that can never be
explained in words.
It is the go to activity for anyone who is bored out of their heads and yet needs to
appear as if they are hard at work.
We guess that that pretty much explains the fact that solitaire is one of the most searched
for words online!
8.
Love Quotes – Movies have pretty much defined what love should be and how courting should
be approached.
Looking at those hapless lovers finding poetic words to woo their mates, it can often give
an inferiority complex to real life lovers.
But then, with the age of internet that we live in, how can an inferiority complex be
allowed to thrive?
Everyday people can also sound like profound poets and win over their loves by simply saying
some really wonderful love quotes.
And where do they go for that?
Definitely not a poet, because it is all available easily on the net.
7.
Pill Identifier – Admit it, all of us have sometime or the other snuck pills from the
closet to get a high.
Or to play doctor to some poor guy with a minor illness.
But how do we do that unless we have actually studied for it?
Simple, go online, identify the pill and see what it does.
And if the side effects include hallucinations, all the better, isn't it?
6.
Bitcoin Price – Whether you know what it is or you don't, there is no doubt that
you have probably heard of Bitcoin.
And while it would really take too long to explain what it is, let us just say that it's
a trading commodity and many people have invested their money in it.
And hence, they are very curious to know what the current price is so that they know whether
they are making a profit or running in loss.
And since there are many potential buyers as well out there, it obviously stands to
reason that it would be one of the most searched for words on the internet.
5.
Currency Converter – Whether it is for a foreign travel tour, or because of foreign
earnings, we all need to know how much our money is worth.
And while the traditional way of doing that was to probably go to a foreign exchange to
figure out the rates and then sit with a calculator to find out the actual worth of the money,
the internet has made lives easier with the currency calculator which can actually tell
in real time how much your money is worth in another country!
4.
Funny pictures – Considering that almost all our day jobs are really drab, all of us
are on the lookout for something to make the day a little bearable.
And what better way to do that than by looking at pictures which make you laugh?
Be it a yawning cat or a crying baby, funny pictures always make your day and that is
probably the reason that it features among the most searched for words on the net.
3.
Add Reminder – Remembering things is something that not all people are good at.
Which is why the job of a secretary was created so that those who could afford one, did not
have to bother with remembering those appointments.
But the internet provided us all with the option of having our own personal assistants
who send us timely reminders of the things we have to do.
And seeing that it is pretty high on the search words of google, it seems that a lot of people
have memory issues!
2.
USA jobs – Trump or not, USA still remains a pretty sought after place for people from
all over the world to work in.
And if they find work, we guess the Americans also need to start hunting for work.
That does become a pretty vicious circle, doesn't it?
But be that as it may, hunting for jobs in the USA remains a pretty frequent search on
google.
1.
Synonyms – We all like to sound wiser than we actually are.
And one of the best ways to appear as a polished person rather than a commoner is to speak
in a manner which no one really understands.
And the easiest way to do that is to use a better sounding synonym for a common word.
And the fact that it is one of the most commonly searched for words, it looks like everyone
wants to sound more posh!
This was out list of the most searched for words on the internet.
