V1 Analytics took Google’s 2021 Year in Search summary and mapped out the top trending search results from January to December 2021. Trending search terms after mid-November 2021 were obtained from Google’s Daily Search Trends page.

Google Trends supplies weekly relative search interest for every search term, along with interest by U.S. state. Using these two datasets for each search term, the V1 Analytics team calculated the relative search interest for each U.S. state for every week. Linear interpolation was used to calculate the everyday search interest.

Now let’s compare 2021’s Trending Google Searches in the United States with Global Google Search Trends.
