Re: Xoops Trends

So this tells us that xoops.org is easy to remember and people don't have to goto google and type 'xoops' (apart from people in Taiwan and Japan who can never remember the address ), where as Mambo has:
http://www.mamboserver.com
http://www.mamboportal.com
http://www.mambohut.com
http://www.mamboxchange.com
http://www.mambotemplates.com
http://www.mambo-foundation.org
etc etc etc
So people always have to go searching to find the site they need.

Re: Xoops Trends

That is one conclusion we could draw from this example, it does give an indication of the popularity of the keywords though. What would be more interesting to know is the popularity of the site.

Earlier I noticed that Alexa´s site traffic graphs were mentioned on XOOPS. I am not sure how accurate the numbers are but comparison between competitors will most likely give a good indication of the differences in website popularity.

Have a look at the Alexa site traffic comparison tool for more details.

Wow Google trends is cool! We can find all sorts of interesting information.

This link should reinforce the relevance of carefully selected datasets:

I especially liked the cities selected to indicate the trends in this query!
