[ Tools ] Noob Question - Geo-Located Search Trends

[Eaiden]

Is there any tool that you know that can show what people are searching for in a specific area?

I know that google trends shows what people are searching for in a county. Is there an option that shows the results deeper?

Just use the Google Keyword Planner and change the location to the city in which you need data.

You can also reverse engineer competitors that are killing it in your niche. Just check out what keywords they're using in their title tags and header tags. Should open a few doors for you.

Thank you for your reply @stackcash. Although, the links you provided were very helpful. It's not quite what I was looking for. I don't have specific keywords yet to input on the Google Adwords Tool.

I was hoping to get the keywords from the search trends happening in the specific region of the area thus can formulate what type of service I can provide.

I guess I could do it manually by thinking of broad keywords and export the data in an excel file and compare from there. But, I might miss out on a opportunity if I couldn't think of the keyword/niche.

In google trends you can expand it from country to region by clicking on the country, and then from region to city again by clicking if their is enough data available.

@lion1978 thanks for your input.

I recently played around with google trends and found out the "Explore" section of the tool.

@Eaiden anytime the explore function unfortunatley works best with broad terms but at least it gives you an idea

I found google trend works well if you browse the categories and countries. Find terms that are high increase in search and afterward go read why it is trending like that. I found a nice trending market 2 weeks ago like that.

You research further trough Adwords keyword planner for related terms
