Summary
Did you know that "chocolate chip cookie recipe" was searched for 135,000 last month on Google in the United States whereas "craving chocolate" had just a meagre 1,300 searches? Check out Wordtracker.com to see some more examples. We have a huge database of 10 billion searches because we track what people search for and need online. That's what we do.

Market data is valuable, especially market data that reveals what people need, because you can make money by providing solutions to those needs. ---- Mike Mindel is founder of Wordtracker.com (established 1998), the leading keyword research tool.
