And in a sea of ceaseless changes, Malaysians kept searching. Every day, Malaysians turn to the search bar to satisfy their curiosities and to deepen their knowledge. Collectively, these searches paint a picture that gives us unique insight into what people really care about.
Understanding consumers is the foundation of every marketer’s role. But how do you begin making sense of the billions of searches that happen every year? Our Year in Search report uses search data to identify the top five consumer trends in Malaysia that will help guide your marketing strategy into the next year.

So, let’s learn from 2021 — because we need to look back in order to move forward.
From marketers to marketers.
From us to you.
