This is a list of top trending Google Search queries by year, published annually in Google Trends. The results are compiled from trillions of Google searches [1] and categorized by topic.
Google Search, also referred to as Google Web Search or simply Google, is a web search engine developed by Google LLC. It is the most used search engine on the World Wide Web across all platforms, with 92.74% market share as of October 2018, handling more than 3.5 billion searches each day.
A web search query is a query based on a specific search term that a user enters into a web search engine to satisfy his or her information needs. Web search queries are distinctive in that they are often plain text or hypertext with optional search-directives. They vary greatly from standard query languages, which are governed by strict syntax rules as command languages with keyword or positional parameters.
Google Trends is a website by Google that analyzes the popularity of top search queries in Google Search across various regions and languages. The website uses graphs to compare the search volume of different queries over time.
