The global technology leader, Google, just released their annual year in search results, showcasing the most trending topics Egyptians searched for over the past year! The lists are divided into six categories; including the top trending searches, people, events, songs, shows, movies, and foods in Egypt.
The data is generated by looking at an aggregation of trillions of searches (or queries) that people searched for on Google this year. The lists are then filtered of spam and repeat queries to build lists that best reflect the spirit of 2017. You might find the presence or absence of some searches surprising, but you’ll certainly enjoy knowing what interests Egyptians!
