How we collected this data

To make the most comprehensive list of the most searched questions on Google, we first segment our database of 25B+ keywords to isolate all the questions. We then used a set of heuristics to eliminate those that weren't talked about very much over the past month. This leaves us with a list of about 10-20,000 questions. From there, we run those through our search volume tool, which is trusted by top institutions from the New York Times to IKEA then we simply sort by the questions with the most searches.

Note that when we calculate the most searched questions on Google in 2023, for example, we are calculating the questions where their searches reached the highest peak during the timeframe of any given month.
