To begin with, Google Trends is a public web facility that helps to trace search-volumes in Google.

Take into account , that in the dynamics of popularity you can see the ratio of growth in interest to the topic to the number of news articles. This is important if you want to attract as much interest to your channel as possible, including from side of the media.

When your video is ready for publication, it's important to give it the right name because the viewers find the video due to its metadata - the heading, the description and the tags.

In the search bar on Google Trends site we type the word that you want to use in the heading. For example, "blog". Click "Search" and see the dynamics of the popularity of the word. It can be traced using 4 criteria: region, period, category and search site.
