INCREASE YOUR BUSINESS POTENTIAL IN ONE WEEK
One of the best ways (quickest, cost effective and accurate) to increase your business potential is to gain market insight.
We use data science tools to analyse what customers are searching for, this provides up to date Quantitive market insight into the wants and needs of users – these users are your customers or prospective customers.
Questions and Answers to Life’s Unanswered Questions
Using our latest data science tools, we use searches to understand people’s current needs and wants. We know what people are looking for and provide you with the most up to date market insights.
Why? 93% of online experiences start with a search engine, according to Forrester research.
That equates to 3.25 million searches per day. Google, who hold 91.94% of the search market share, they process 40,000 search queries every second worldwide.
In Australia google processes over 250,000 searches a day.
I know, this is all very interesting but how is this relevant to your business?
If someone asks ‘what, where, why, when,’ etc., they’re most likely looking for an answer which means they’ve turned their search into a question by starting it off with one of these words. 50% of questions entered are 4 words or more.
We have made the cheat sheet below to help interpret some of the intention behind the searches

It is obvious that if you are not found in search then you are missing out.
Using this Quantitive research method, the question and queries analysis provide us with an opportunity to develop new products and services that meet their needs, or simply align our messaging to increase the chances that a search will be directed to your content / website.
The results can assist with strategy planning and providing direction. One such example for a state government agency was to determine how many entrepreneurs there are, and the types of businesses they were planning. Here is a high level snapshot of some of the results.
