Source for how many searches are done on Google per day?
-
Hi, All!
The figure I've seen going around is 3 billion and is attributed to ComScore, but in the comScore press release that was linked to (actually the one from Rand's article - http://www.seomoz.org/blog/21-tactics-to-increase-blog-traffic-2012) all I could find was percentage of market share, but no total numbers of searches.
Anyone have a source on that?
Thanks,
Aviva

Google will never show its cards
And I've never gotten really accurate data from ComScore, etc. so there's only so much you can uncover, eh? -
Thanks Andrea. A post from Search Engine Land (http://searchengineland.com/by-the-numbers-twitter-vs-facebook-vs-google-buzz-36709) from about 2 years ago also says that the only number Google will give is "more than 1 billion," but that is assumed in the article to be a minimum estimate.
So it could that Catherine Roe was reporting the only "official" stats Google has, but which may not reflect reality 100%.

I just went to a luncheon 2 weeks ago that Catherine Roe (Head of Consumer Packaged Goods for Google) spoke at and she said that Google has 1 billion searches a day. This was based on internal data her team gave her (I don't know how recent, but I'd venture to guess she knows the right people to ask).

For example: Raven stopped use of scraped Google, SEMRush data on Jan. 2 Raven stopped offering unauthorized Google SERP rankings and keyword data (a.k.a. scraped Google data) on Jan. 2, 2013. The change included the retirement of the SERP Tracker and the elimination of SEMRush data from the Raven platform. Raven has released new SEO performance reports that make it easy to show clients the impact of campaigns to improve organic traffic. Raven will continue to upgrade reports through the year. We thank the many customers who continue their business with Raven. More details about the SEO performance reports and other recent releases are available Is SEOMoz protected in some way? Or will you have to give up rankings reports too?

How to get global search results on Google ? Also, is it possible to get results based on some other geographic location?
I don't want results based on my geographic location. When I am in India, I don't want local search results. In fact, I want results which are not dependent on my current location. Also, can I change my current location to some other city and will it affect the results ? For eg: While I am in London, can my search results be modified as if I am sitting in New York ?

Benefits of "other" search engines
Hi all, Newbie here. I am looking at ways to drive traffic to my new site and wondered if it's worth attempting to rank in the lesser known search engines. Getting to the top of these may be easier but I wondered if anyone has ever targeted traffic in this way? Thanks

Google decreased use of Meta Descripiton Tag
Over the past month or so I have noticed that Google is not using the meta description for my pages but is instead pulling text from the actual page to show on the SERP. Is Google placing less emphasis on meta descriptions?

Google new update question
I was just reading this, http://www.entrepreneur.com/blog/220662 We have our official site, which has 200+ service pages, which we wrote once and we keep doing SEO for them, so they rank high all the time. Now my question is, how does Google handle the site freshness ? Service static pages or if we are adding blog items, then also they consider them as fresh site, right ? So, we dont have to update those service pages, right ?
