"Maria Sharapova" Tops Yahoo! Search Rankings



For those of you who aren't aware, Yahoo! provides their Yahoo! Buzz Index, showing a summary of the previous week's top 20 searches.

Google also provides a free weekly report, showing the "search patterns, trends and surprises according to Google." It's called the Google Zeitgeist, and it's updated weekly with statistics on what were the most popular searches the previous week.

If you read it, you'd know that "Spongebob" is the #1 search on Google among children. Mmmm, just thinking about crabby patties makes me hungry...

Interesting, free stats for buzz marketing gurus. Add to that the free data you can glean from the Pew Internet & American Life Project as well as Nielsen//Netratings and you too can be an Internet professional!

Did I just give away all of my secrets? Damn.
