Welcome to PRE Stats! I’ve gathered all the historical data which Presearch has published in its weekly podcasts and other open sources, organized it and published it in various charts and graphs here.
The Presearch team only published individual data points, generally weekly, and no historical trends. This site fixes that problem.
Also, I’ve added a lot of other open-source data, such as social network numbers, which the Presearch team doesn’t actually publish, but which is generally available.
In addition, I’ve analyzed some of that data to actually reach conclusions on what they mean: e.g., the trends in average stake per keyword, number of searches per user (the results of which are a bit disturbing), etc.
Lastly, in a couple of cases (such as social media data), there is no historical information available (through the Wayback Machine or elsewhere), so that data starts with this initial posting.
All data will be updated weekly from now on.
The site also has a blog for any comments you may have; you can also write me at alex.maksky@proton.me. Happy to receive any constructive criticism on the existing charts and graphs, as well as ideas for additional ones.
Each entry has a “stop light” rating, which gives you a quick read on whether the trends for that statistic are positive or not, as well as a brief commentary from me.
For those of you who would like to read a more detailed assessment of the Presearch project, please see my Medium post here.
Hope you like it!
