What's available
Number of clicks on Google led to your website
For traffic to your website, you’ll have the breakdown of your traffic, Organic versus Ads, for:
- Products: traffic from Google to product detail pages on your website
- Store on Search and Maps: track all interactions with your store's Business Profile on Google Search & Maps
- Non-product website results: traffic from Google to pages on your website that aren’t product detail pages; these can be your website’s home page, shipping and return policies, product category pages, or others.
What people are searching for on Google
Learn how popular a search topic is relative to its peak popularity. 100 is peak popularity, 50 is half as popular, and 0 means there wasn’t enough data.
Click the "View all searches" button to explore more detailed information. Filter or sort your results based on the following dimensions:
- Search rank: Google ranks products and brands based on how often customers are searching for them. The smaller the number, the higher your product category ranks in searches.
- Search trend: Details how much a product category has increased in popularity compared to a previous period because of customers searching for them more often.
- Time period: Select a time period from the past 30 or 120 days, and view trend predictions for the next 7 or 30 days.
- Country: One of the countries you sell in is selected by default, but you can explore trends in other countries by changing the filter values.
