Discover South Africa's Trending Searches

Trending Topics is a tool that helps you discover what South African's are searching for via Search Engines like Google. We extract data only for South African searches thus providing you with relevant local insights.

We use sophisticated multi-layered systems to gather data from search engines like Google and apply advanced prediction algorithms to generate highly reliable traffic estimations. While no external system can achieve 100% accuracy without direct access to Google's internal network, we continuously validate our results against Google's own tools and other industry providers to ensure the highest possible level of precision and reliability. All data is collected in accordance with applicable South African laws and regulations.

We try our best to avoid limiting anything on our service, however, resources are expensive to maintain in South Africa therefore if your short link receives too many visitors, we may need to apply rate limits to prevent our entire system from collapsing. All this means is that, some users will be delayed by a second or two before they are redirected to the relevant page. In extreme cases, we'll contact you directly to discuss alternatives such as setting up a temporary server to handle the demand.

Google limits us to maximum of 25,000 audits per day. Based on these limits we'll enable/disable this feature when the demand and usage rises beyond our limits. We also employ some queuing and caching mechanisms to help keep the system online for longer, however, since this is a Google powered service, we have very little control over these restrictions. Limits on the Audit tool will have no impact on our core keyword database offerings.

The 7-day free trial gives you full access to our team plan including our extensive keyword database, short links service and, Google powered services such as page audits. No credit card is required to start your trial.

We do not offer refunds to prevent abuse of our services, since once you subscribe you get full access to everything in our database.

The keywords database is replaced entirely every 6-8 months with fresh data, whilst other aspects of our database such as business ideas, trending topics and some of the keyword data is updated every few weeks partially based on usage.
