Top YouTube Search Terms
Hitwise recently released the top 20 search terms on YouTube for December 2008. Let's take a peek, shall we?
- lil wayne
- twilight
- beyonce
- single ladies
- soulja boy
- cris brown
- fred
- taylor swift
- britney spears
- love story
- family guy
- akon
- hannah montana
- jonas brothers
- akon na na na
- jesse mccartney how do you sleep
- womanizer
- beyonce single ladies
- heartless
- hot n cold
I'm noticing a bit of a trend. Looks like music searches dominated the top 20 in December of 2008 with Family Guy and the supposedly funny, high-pitched tween, Fred also making the list.
What does this mean for marketers? You need to start pushing for more product placement inside music videos , become a pop star, or create a dance craze if you want to break into the top 20 on YouTube. Thankfully there are other options.
Hitwise notes that there are other, more promising terms for advertisers further down the list like, "hypnosis", "pokemon", and "bodybuilding". I'm not sure what they mean by promising, but I have a feeling my hypnotic, weight lifting pokemon music video has a shot at going viral !

I found your blog on google and read a few of your other posts. I just added you to my Google News Reader. Keep up the good work. Look forward to reading more from you in the future.
A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker.
A comment is not considered a good comment when it makes no f***ing sense.
Thanks for sharing and introducing me this
Thanks for the interesting post on search terms. I am pretty sure soulja boy or many of these other are not even on the top 50 at this point. It funny to see what videos people wanted to see just 10 months ago.
