Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I really appreciate you thinking this through for me, but think about it.  Let's take the restaurant industry. There have to be people out there making presentations and putting in facts like "X # of searches are being made by people in the U.S. looking for local restaurants (for example). Or the car industry, people need stats like "X number of people searching for a new car in the U.S. this month"

These statistics seem a vital part of the search community, and understanding these statistics when putting together any kind of global online marketing plan seem important.

Any other ideas to really dig down and get some more specifics?

Thanks for the tip here!

There must be some place online where we can see the breakdown of search volume by vertical? Anyone out there in the moz community done a research report or found a research report that shows google search volume by category/vertical over the last 5 years?

I"m looking for specific breakdowns of search volume in google by:

#1 Vertical (Shopping/restaurants/Services etc).

For example, how many people are searching in google for information pertaining to restaurants per month? Search volume for all of 2012, 2013, 2014?

#2 More granular categories within verticals, people searching for: books,apartment rentals,cellphones)

Is there a breakdown of google search somewhere online that gives this type of information?

Thank you MOZ community, really appreciate it!
