Hello there! Today I will explain Google Trends to you in a way that even a 5-year-old can understand.
Imagine you really like to play with building blocks, and your friend likes to play with toy cars. But, one day you notice that your friend is now playing with building blocks too! You might think, "Wow, my friend is really interested in building blocks now!"
That's kind of what Google Trends does, but with words that people type into Google. Google Trends shows how many people are searching for a specific word or topic on Google. It's like looking at a popularity contest for ideas rather than people!
Let's say we want to compare two things, like pizza and ice cream. We can type those words into Google Trends and see how often people are searching for each word.
It will show us a graph that goes up and down, like a rollercoaster. A high point on the graph means that a lot of people are searching for that word or topic. A low point means that not many people are searching for it.
We can even see where in the world people are searching for a particular word or topic the most!
Overall, Google Trends can help us understand what people are interested in at a certain time. It's like taking a peek into the mind of the internet!
I hope I explained it well enough for you to understand!
