Google Trends Insights – Last 48 Hours in Turkey

My Favorite Kind of Work

Who’s been searching for what, what people are curious about.No filters, just pure search trends.Google Trends data, last 48 hours. Live as I’m sharing it.

Today in Turkey everyone is Googling the Fenerbahçe – Trabzonspor derby.Over the past two days the search volume has hit 2 million.

Right behind it comes curiosity about our national team against Germany. The match isn’t over yet, but the search volume is already at 500,000. And the big question: “Are we champions yet?” A cheer just went up outside… maybe we are!

The “Top Searches” page is all football. Even within the first 15 queries beyond the national match, it’s still all football. There’s even a name in there — Okay Yokuşlu. Who’s that? Ah… of course, a football player!

Football queries are followed by TV series searches:

• “Arka Sokaklar 718th episode full watch” (20K searches) — yes, still going strong.

• “Çarpıntı which day” (2K searches) — a newly launched series.

Then out of nowhere a question pops up: “When was the first e-mail ever sent?”Suddenly 2,000 hits. Why now? Someone must have said something; suddenly everyone’s curious.

I check… it was on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire,” asked by Oktay Kaynarca yesterday. A ₺100,000 question. Answer: 1971.

The TV obsession continues. Dozens more searches like “Bahar Episode 49 watch,” “When does Teşkilat start,” “Veliaht which day” and so on.

Pages and pages of football, footballers, footballers’ wives, and TV series — that’s what we’ve been curious about over the past 48 hours.

Now let’s peek into our own field for a moment. What have people searched about healthcare?

There’s one topic: Ministry of Health staff recruitment.What’s that about? Minister Memişoğlu hinted at it on TRT. Small hit volume, no follow-up yet — only 500 searches.

Let’s widen the lens. Last 7 days: COVID.Different COVID headlines. Is there a new outbreak? Let’s trace it back: it’s about the vaccine. English-language outlets ran a piece, and the echoes showed up here. Total COVID queries around 10K. Luckily nothing alarming.

Zoom out again. Last 1 month.

Rising trend: Casibom. “What is Casibom?” Ah… online betting. Interesting. Hits coming from Şırnak, Kilis, Batman — clearly local ads. A few hours’ spike, that’s why it tops the trending chart. All the rising trends are betting sites.

And the most searched Turkish word over the past month? Weather. I wonder who’s searching so much? Giresun, Bulancak, Çarşamba — rainy regions love their forecasts.

Today’s final curiosity: last 30 days. What images have we searched?Black, cars, iPhone. Well then :D

Good night.Let’s hope for a championship tonight! Amen 😊
